3) Technical Analysis
MA100 is commonly used as a medium-to-long trend line to assess whether a stock remains in a healthy uptrend or has entered a distribution phase.
MA100 is the average closing price of the last 100 periods. It is much smoother than MA10/MA30, making it useful for reading the broader direction and medium-term support zones.
Think of MA100 as a large river current. Small surface waves can move up and down, but the main current direction remains visible. That's MA100's role: filtering small turbulence so the big trend stays clear.
In many blue-chip stocks, MA100 often becomes an institutional defense zone during medium corrections. When price fails to reclaim MA100 after a breakdown, it usually signals the trend has not recovered yet.
After understanding this concept, apply it in tools so decisions become more objective and measurable.

Can MA100 be used for entries?
Yes, but it's better as a confirmation zone. For precise entries, combine it with shorter MAs, price action, and volume.
