The exact definitions the Portfolio Sweep app uses — word for word — each with its own page, a worked example, and links to the terms it connects to.
A single basket holding many investments at once. One share of VTI = a sliver of nearly every US company. A calmer, beginner-friendly way in. Trades like a stock.
The average price over ~200 trading days. When price is above it, the long-term drift is up; below, it's leaning down. A slow, steadying signal.
a faster trend line. Dropping below one it held = "breaking support."
A momentum gauge, 0–100. Over ~70 means price rose fast and may cool off; under ~30 means it fell hard and may be oversold.
When something drops, ask whether the whole market dropped too. If so, it's market-wide, not about that one asset. Portfolio Sweep checks this for you.
How jumpy a price has been lately. Crypto is normally far more volatile than a broad ETF — big swings there are routine, not alarms.
A price level something keeps bouncing off. Falling below one it had been holding is "breaking support" — worth a look, not a panic.
Buying a fixed amount on a schedule instead of all at once, so you don't have to time the market. A common beginner approach.
