... you realize those lines changes to best fit the trendline...

Because of that, it's always going to fit historical values... Whether it will 100% predict tomorrow is a guess... But know this, once tomorrow happens , the MA of the past weeks will change to fit lol.

Hence the term, "moving average"... when there's no data to plot, it can't tell you much. You can only speculate.

If you don't understand what I mean, maybe look at how it's calculated.

Yes, I understand how it’s calculated. I obviously wrote the same formulas used to continue calculating it adding in the predicted future daily values. Maybe, you don’t understand how it’s calculated and you don’t understand that a whole week of trading is only 1/10 of the 50 day moving average. So one week or one day can’t skew it much.
