The Moving Average in MetaTrader 5 calculates the mean price over a specified period, then plots it as a line on the chart. But MT5 takes this basic concept further by offering four distinct calculation methods: Simple (SMA), Exponential (EMA), Smoothed (SMMA), and Linear Weighted (LWMA). Each method treats price data differently. The SMA gives equal weight to all periods—a 20-period SMA on EUR/USD averages the last 20 closes with no bias.

Markets spent the week whipsawing between conflicting economic signals, leaving most major currencies trapped in choppy, directionless trading as traders struggled to find conviction. The dollar opened Monday nursing losses from softer inflation expectations, only to stage a brief comeback Tuesday after disappointing retail sales initially triggered selling. Wednesday’s blockbuster jobs report—130,000 payrolls versus just 40,000 expected—sparked another round trip as the headline beat clashed with massive downward revisions showing 2025 added just 181,000 jobs instead of the initially reported 584,000. Friday’s cooler-than-expected CPI capped the week with fresh volatility, pushing inflation expectations back toward earlier Fed rate cuts. Beyond…

SEO is moving out of the marketing silo into organizational design. Visibility now depends on how information is structured, validated, and aligned across the business. When information is fragmented or contradictory, visibility becomes unstable. The risk isn’t just ranking volatility – it’s losing control of how your brand is interpreted and cited. For SEO leaders, the choice is unavoidable: remain a channel optimizer or shape the systems that govern how your organization is understood and cited. That shift isn’t happening in a vacuum. AI systems now interpret, reconcile, and assemble information at scale. The visibility shift beyond rankings The future…
