    Mine goes back and forth around the middle mark... 190 I believe.

    During very very hot days in traffic it goes a little bit higher then 190, althought not by much...
    but while moving it stays below that...

    Mine is around in the middle but if in hot temp and bad traffic (10-15 min not moving) in my country it will come up to 95 c and stay steady till the car start to move and it'll be back around in the middle. Is it normal?

    This is completely normal.
    The left cooling fan turns on at 95 degrees (C) so in traffic the temperature would remain at that temperature until you start moving.
