SMA is my favorite one due to its simplicity, trend identification capabilities, smoothing effect, support/resistance levels, and widespread usage. How has it helped you in making informed trading decisions?

The naked chart (except for the candlesticks) is my favorite due to its simplicity, trend identification capabilities, smoothing effect, and widespread usage.
huh? By default, if I see an attractive female avatar, I'd assume the writer is a male. Millions of males in this world have used such tactics to con other gullible foolish males. PS: You very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very rarely see a hideous female avatar. PS: It is very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very common to see an attractive female avatar.
Let me break it down for you. An SMA is a finite impulse response (FIR) lowpass digital filter. The group delay (ie lag) for an FIR filter is (n-1)/2 where n = length in days of your calculation window. Lag is the reason why moving averages don't work. Speaking of windows, an SMA is a boxcar window. A smoother curve can be had, for the same lag, by changing the frequency response to a Gaussian window. Ex: 5 day SMA coefficients [1,1,1,1,1] versus Gaussian [1,2,3,2,1] divided by 9 of course.
Price is highly fractal in nature. 1 day, 1 hour, 1 minute, 1 millisecond. Of course there is a bottom limit given the speed of light and how fast a processor can process data.
