and work through that whole thread. Then if you aren't satisfied, there are references there to many more pages that came before. There are GTE experts along that link, but I ain't among them.

MA = Moving Average ... the most common ones are the 50 day and 200 day MA ... i use the 20/40/60 day MA's for my charts... don't worry about how to calculate the MA's ...the charting software you use does that for you or charting website ... but to calculate it on a daily basis is done by adding the closing price of the last 20 days & divide it by 20 (for a 20 day MA) and that is what the 20 day MA for the day is... MA's tend to act as RESISTANCE AND SUPPORT.. when a stock is trading above it's MA's they act as SUPPORT... when a stock is trading below the MA's they tend to act as RESISTANCE ... hope this helps...
