Almost every charting package out there will give you the 200 day moving average. It is normally abreviated as the 200MA though.

@FEK, you are a fraud. On 11 Oct. you said that you only trade derivatives, and are quite successful at it. Now you do not know how to obtain AGL's 200 day m.a? This us unlikely in the extreme. every once in a while, a non-credible character appears on

Thanks for the comments and advice on where to find the information that I seek. I am looking for the information as someone once said that they will only look at a share if it is above the 200dma. also remember that trading derivatives depends on underlying share price.

FEK: can I sugges you read the following two books: Secrets of Profiting in Bull and Bear Markets by Stan Weinstein and Strategic Stock Trading by Michael Swanson. These two books discuss the use of moving averages as a basis of a trading system. You can order them from kalahari.com.
