7. Short-term SMAs let traders spy on other market participants. The Public uses simple moving average settings
because they dont Understand EMAs. Good intraday signals rely more on how the Competition thinks than the technicals
of the moment.

averages will line up And point in the same direction. But they flip over one at a time at highs And lows, until price finally
surges through in the other direction.
