Moving Average (Coal Power)

The mean of prices over a pre-defined period, for instance, the previous five days. The moving average for different time periods can be charted to generate short- and medium-term buy/sell signals. For instance, funds have in the past tended to buy when the price crosses the 40-day moving average from below, and to sell when it cuts the average from above.

Moving Average (Finance)

Used in charts and technical analysis, the average of security or commodity prices constructed in a period as short as a few days or as long as several years, and showing trends for the latest interval. As each new variable is included in calculating the average, the last variable of the series is deleted.

Moving Average (Frauds and Scams)

An average that is based on security or commodity prices over a period of time (few days to few years) that shows trends for the latest period. It is a rolling average when the latest day's figures are included in the average and the oldest day's figures are not included.
