Calculation of the Moving Average
The Moving Average (MA) is an average price calculated using the most recent price information available.
If the moving average calculates the price over a 10-period span, it is referred to as a 10-period forex moving average. Since many traders use daily periods, this is commonly called the 10-day Moving Average.
To find the 10-day moving average, average the prices from the last 10 days. The forex MA indicator updates after each new price bar. It recalculates with the latest 10 periods. That's why it's called a moving average - it shifts with new data.
