I've looked through the forum and searched the API but can't seem to find anything on moving averages for a contract. Does the API have functions to use that return a price of a moving average over a time period for a contract? If not, what is the best way to go about creating this? One of the moving averages I need is a 40 day, can I request historical data this far back?

I'm brand new to this API and creating financial software in general, any help is appreciated!

OECAPI provides the basic historical data. You can use OEC Chart Package to get builtin moving averages.
OEC provides bars more than 40 days back.

I am not seeing the Chart Package in the API documentation, what is it under?
