20 Month MA

Trying to set up a 20 month or 600 day SMA. But I cant get it to appear on the chart?

Answers

  • Make sure the chart is for the same time frame - daily for 600 sma and monthly for 20 sma - and also make sure the chart is wide enough (long enough period of time - maybe a year for the daily and two or three years for the monthly) to show both the current price and the moving average. A sharp price move can take price too far away from its average to show up on the same chart if the chart isn't long enough.

    Also, if the stock doesn't have 20 months or 600 days of history, there will be no MA lines for those periods to show.
