When using moving average indicators, whats the duration do you view for better accuracy? E.g. 5 years, 2 years, 1 year, 6 months, 3 months or 1 month?

Take a quick glance at everything

Moving average, like any other technical indicator should not be use independently. A 1 year moving average may indicate a buy but a 5 year moving average may indicate a sell. As what Gabriel mentioned, the smaller the MA date, the more sensitive the moving average so your action points will be more frequent, but if you're an investor looking at something more long-term and a stronger sign of action, it'd be recommended to look at longer MA's instead
