By moving averages of length of 7 days, if you mean averages of first 7 days, then average of 2nd day to 8th day and like this, the solution is in attached spreadshet. 

Two excel sheets are there. If you are using newer version of MS office, open the first one, otherwise open the second one.

     Moving average chart is used to plot the average of multiple days rather than directly the data.  The moving averages chart is a smoothened curve for identifying trends eliminating short term abrupt changes.

   The average is calculated taking into account 7 points as:  3 previous points, the current point, and 3 points after the current point.

   In the beginning and in the end there is an adaptation of the formula of average calculation done.

  I have also plotted the charts two types - for you to see the use of the moving averages.
