Hello,

Sorry about I am newbie. Do you know what's the meaning & function about the "Displace"?

For example in MA code:

inputs: Price( Close ), Length( 9 ), Displace( 0 ) ;
variables: var0( 0 ) ;

var0 = AverageFC( Price, Length ) ;

condition1 = Displace >= 0 or CurrentBar > AbsValue( Displace ) ;
if condition1 then
begin
Plot1[Displace]( var0, "Avg" ) ;

if Displace <= 0 then
begin
condition1 = Price crosses over var0 ;
if condition1 then
Alert( "Price crossing over average" )
else
begin
condition1 = Price crosses under var0 ;
if condition1 then
Alert( "Price crossing under average" ) ;
end;
end;
end;

Hello,

For example in MA code:

............

futat - Displace means to shift the indicator to the left or right by a specified number of bars. Positive is left and negative is right. Refer to the chart below.

Note that you can just try different settings to see the effect. Also you can look up definitions in this handy reference EasyLanguage Essentials.
