[Metastockusers] moving average.......horizontal shift

["moishe73" <mbuchalt@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

"Horizontal Shift.  Enter the number of periods to shift the moving 
average.  For example, enter "5" to shift the moving average five 
periods to the right; enter "-5" to shift the moving average five 
periods to the left; etc."

the above comes out of the MS ver 9.0 Help.

I would appreciate someone explaining under what circumstances one 
would use the "Horizontal Shift" to the left and to the right.

Thanks
