moving average
Rolling price indicator
A moving average is a calculation that smooths data by averaging values over a rolling window of time.
As new data arrives, the oldest drops out and the average updates.
Stock traders watch moving averages to identify trends: The 50-day moving average crossed above the 200-day, signaling bullish momentum.
The technique filters out short-term noise to reveal underlying patterns.
