Hi Putz, I know you’re very involved with technical analysis and charting, but that only makes sense when the volumes are sufficiently high — as indeed 2025 can already be counted on.
Personally, I use a combination of EMA and SMA: the EMA-8 (the black line) together with the standard SMA-20, 50, 100, and 200 (the red, blue, green and purple line). This setup allows you to clearly observe the trends while also tracking the more recent, faster movements — and therefore potential trend reversals and volatility.
That’s also why I always include an IV chart in my graphs. This way, you can assess both the speed and the magnitude of price fluctuations. (This said; and looking to the graph I fear a 'death cross' today; the SMA-20 breaking the SMA-50 downwards....)
I use TradingView as my charting platform (the basic version is free!), but you can configure this with virtually any charting software.
Good luck and success!
