This one is driving me crazy. I have searched the internet for clues but non of the many threads of the type "ImportError: No module named xxxxxx" has proven very useful.
I had previously Python2.7 installed.
Then I installed Anaconda python, added $HOME/anaconda/bin to the PATH and launched ipython notebook
Python 2.7.9 |Anaconda 2.2.0 (x86_64)| (default, Dec 15 2014, 10:37:34)
Type "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
IPython 3.1.0 -- An enhanced Interactive Python.
Anaconda is brought to you by Continuum Analytics.

What exactly is causing the error here? The moves package seems to be installed and so does six. What does it mean that the moves package in the conda list has <pip> in the third column?

I suppose you have two ipythons installed, check which of them is running on linux shell:
$ where ipython
if you find the the non-anaconda is running, clean the 'pure python'
$ sudo pip uninstall ipython
and check the path to see if you have the binaries pointing to the anaconda ipython, as in my case, you can see /home/henry/anaconda3/bin
$ echo $PATH
$ /usr/local/heroku/bin:/home/henry/.cabal/bin:/home/henry/Library/Haskell/bin:/home/henry/.bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/local/games:/usr/games:/home/henry/bin/scala/bin:/home/henry/anaconda3/bin:/home/henry/bin/rebar3

I have found another solution to that issue. Mainly, you can comment out/remove just this line from ipython_config.py in profile_default
c.InteractiveShell.deep_reload = True
