Detrended Price Oscillator from Metastock:

The Detrended Price Oscillator (DPO) is an indicator that attempts to
eliminate the trend in prices.
Detrended prices allow you to more easily identify cycles and
overbought/oversold levels.
The calculation is quite simple; you simply center an x-period moving
average by shifting it back x/2 + 1 periods.
This centered moving average is then subtracted from the close. The
result is an oscillator that crosses above and below zero. 
Since the DPO is shifted back "x/2 + 1" periods, the last "x/2 + 1"
periods will have no values.

MetaStock prompts you to enter the number of periods. 
The value entered should be the approximate length of the cycle you
wish to identify. Cycles longer than the number of periods you enter 
will not be shown. The default value is 20.
