Imagine you're tracking the daily temperature over a week. A Moving Average (MA) is like smoothing out those bumps to see the general trend. In the financial world, it does the same thing with prices. It takes the average price of a stock or crypto over a certain period (like 20 days or 50 days) to show if the price is generally going up, down, or staying steady. It's a tool traders use to get a sense of where the market might be headed.
