Thank you for your interest and help. The displaced moving average is into
the future. I have to expand my chart ahead to the right to have this work.
The indicator looks good if there were just some way to take the numerical
value that is plotted and pass that through to a signal it would be fine.

Sure we are! As you said, and I agreed, you cannot calculate 5 bars into the
future.
This is a calculation some have used for what they called "displaced" moving
average *Average(C[5],13)*, and I provided an exit....Clearly we are
*displacing* the MA in opposite directions. That is the way I heard the
question. Perhaps we should ask Joe what he meant by displaced moving
average. Joe?
BTW I don't displace 'em one way or the other....it's just less clean
looking
and hasn't tested out as well for me.
