English term

Just as a leash pulls an unruly dog back

English to Portuguese Bus/Financial Business/Commerce (general)
Looked at in this way, the MA is really the center of the trend, and the envelope consists of the points of maximum and minimum divergence from it. Just as a leash pulls an unruly dog back to its owner and then allows him to run off in the opposite direction until the leash stops him, prices act in a similar manner. The leash in this case is the two envelopes, or more if we choose to draw them.

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

assim como uma guia puxa um cachorro agitado de volta (para seu dono)

Entendo assim. A guia é usada para controlar os movimentos do cachorro.
Example sentence:

Passear com seu cão, levá-lo para caminhar ou para qualquer atividade fora de casa é sempre bom utilizar coleiras, guias e peitorais para cães.

assim como uma coleira que impede o cachorro de se afastar

só outra sugestão.

assim como uma coleira que impede o cachorro de se afastar de seu dono, deixando ele correr para o lado oposto até que ela estique novamente, assim são os preços (assim é a média móvel).
