Study Note: MA+from Technical Analysis Live

Hi, everyone. It's Emma here.
So, two days ago, I posted a comment asking which TA tool is the most newbie-friendly. Wow, that post has received many likes and suggestions so far, especially from @bullrider. Thank you so much. They say that MA is the most newbie-friendly, and I studied MA.
Well, how should I put that.... umm it's really not easy, guys. Feels like I have got the theory and I have known the basic knowledge of it, but once I apply it to a real chart. I started to get confused. I assume this will take time. So, here is a compilation of what materials I used during my learning. Will keep on adding to the list.
Aside basic search from Google. Moo here got many fine resources.
MA:
1. TA Challenge: How do you identify trends with moving averages?
2. Tech Analysis To Identify Trend Using Moving Average - MA 📈 Day 1 (AMC As Example)
this is from @Milk The Cow (i really like the colorful highlighting in the posts, it enables me to catch the important msgs, ASAP, very time-effective!!!thank you)
3. Day 1 Technical analysis challenge: How do you identify trends with moving averages? (Part 1)
this is from @JM investor (Please, promise me. For those we don't know MA well, you have to read the third part "how i use moving average) it is super helpful!!) thank you JM!
4. Technical Analysis Challenge Day 1 - MA (Part 2) and this one is more practical!!!!
And there are also some messages from the live couple days ago, which i think is a little bit challenging to me, but REALLY HELPFUL as well.  The link: Take Charge of 2023 by Getting Ahead with Technical Analysis
I am super busy these days, so I just summarized a few things I learned. Part of them are from Live, others are from my own understanding.
Q1 in the Live (45mins): What are some limitations and things we should be careful about when using MA?
The limitation itself is a secondary indicator, as the TA Live indicates. Besides, from my understanding, maybe the biggest limitation is that the MA might be slow and sluggish because it is based on past performance. You can see the trend, especially from a long-term view, but I don't think it's a really effective tool for a short time, considering things in the stock market happen so fast. You are already late.
Q2 in the Live (54mins) : Which TA tool do you think is the most newbie-friendly? (yep, my question, actually)
I will first go with what the live told me: the simple, the better. Even some experienced traders still keep their charts as simple as possible. A chart like this is hard to read.

Then I will express my thanks to all people here who answer under my comments and participated in the vote. I am gonna show all of these, in case other newbies might need that.
This is the vote i have gotten so far:

For those who wonder how to add the dotted lines, it's actually at the "50mins" in the live, but I took a shortscreen for you, so no need to go back.

actually, just curious, what Period time do you always use in terms of MA.  I know we usually use multiple lines. So what are they?
Thank you guys. as usual, plz feel free to correct me if there is anything wrong. Wish you all the best!!
