This links you directly to the indices quotes page. It will be obvious to you but all you need to do is click on "Max" underneath a chart to get the full history. A 5 year chart should do just fine for what you are wanting to know. quote.yahoo.com Vendit

Continued: The MACD text book definition: MACD The Moving Average Convergence/Divergence is a good medium term indicator developed by George Appel that signals overbought and oversold conditions by measuring the intensity of public sentiment. Use the crossover of the fast moving average through the slower moving average to arrive at buy or sell signals. MACD is especially valuable when used in conjunction with a momentum indicator such as Stochastic or RSI. Since MACD is a sensitive indicator of public sentiment it can be applied to mutual funds as well as stocks and some technicians believe a 8-17-9 MACD is best for entering long positions and 12-25-9 for exiting them.
