Calculation of the Moving Average
The Bitcoin Crypto Currency Moving Average is also known as Moving Average - is calculated as an average of bitcoin price using the recent most bitcoin price data.
If the Moving Average uses the 10 period to calculate the average of the bitcoin price then it is known as to as a 10 period bitcoin trading moving average, because most traders use the day as the standard bitcoin price period we shall just refer to it as the 10 day Moving Average.
To calculate the ten day Moving Average the bitcoin price of the last 10 days is averaged, the bitcoin trading moving average indicator is then updated constantly after every new bitcoin price period. So after each new bitcoin price period is formed the moving average is then calculated afresh using the most recent 10 bitcoin price periods, that is why it is called a moving average because the average is constantly moving when bitcoin price data is updated.
