Kevin,
What you are asking is a matter of both price 
and time. Therefore, its really is not possible to project both 
time and price in an indicator. Yes, the upper and lower levels 
of a trigger can be calculated one day in 
advance.
There was something written about Reverse 
Engineering the RSI, and the formulae are also available in various 
places.
Personally, I have tried using this method, and 
found that it does not in any way enhance my trading.
I still feel the trailing stop loss method to be 
the best to lock in profits, and the fibonacci extensions to "project" price 
targets.
My very humble opinion.

  Subject: [Metastockusers] Projecting An 
  Indicator Value Ahead
  Hello,Signals are 
  given when a certain event occurs, e.g. two moving averages cross over 
  and/or the RSI crosses below, say, 70.Has anybody looked a way of 
  formulating ahead of time the price that an equity has to hit in order to 
  trigger a particular signal? For example, let's say that on a certain day 
  the price of a stock is 75, the value of the 20MA is 80 and the value of 
  the 50MA is 85. What will the price of the stock be if and when the 20MA 
  crosses above the 50MA? How many days ahead would one be able to calculate 
  it?So, let's say that you would initiate a long trade when, say, the 
  20MA crosses above the 50MA as long as the RSI(14) is greater than 50. 
  Rather than wait until one notices that this combination of events has 
  occurred, could one instead place a limit buy order in the market ahead of 
  time, at a specific price, confident that if the order is executed, the MA 
  and RSI signals have actually been triggered? If so, how far 
  ahead?Any comments?Regards,Kevin
