How about something like
calc:=Mov( ROC(C ,8 ,% ) ,8 ,E );
days:=250; {number of trading days in a year}
y1:=Ref(calc,-days);
y2:=Ref(calc,-days*2);
y3:=Ref(calc,-days*3);
y4:=Ref(calc,-days*4);
y1+y2+y3+y4;
I don't think you want to include the current year in the calculation so I
omitted it.
There's no need to divide by 4 (the number of years) as the numbers are
meaningless anyway. Simply Overlay Without Scale.
I make no claims to its usefulness. Well, actually I think it's pretty
useless. What you now have is a(nother) squiggly line with no new
information and you're still left staring at the hard right edge. What are
you going to do with this new squiggly line anyway? It only tells you
something about what happened in the past (or in this case the sum of four
things that happened in the past). Sounds like you're still chasing the
Holy Grail - that magic squiggly line that's going to look into the future
(impossible) and make you money without any effort.
But good luck with it.

Hi again,
I guess I made it sound harder or more detailed than it actually
is. All I'm trying to do is overlay the prices(or change in
prices) for the last 5 or maybe 10 years. For example:
y2003:= If( Year()=2003 , Mov( ROC(C ,8 ,% ) ,8 ,E ) ,0 );
y2004:= If( Year()=2004 , Mov( ROC(C ,8 ,% ) ,8 ,E ) ,0 );
y2005:= If( Year()=2005 , Mov( ROC(C ,8 ,% ) ,8 ,E ) ,0 );
(y2003+y2004+y2005)/3
However, this merely plots a continuous Mov( RO(C ,8 ,% ) ,8 ,E ).
How might I truely differentiate the years data in
order to sum them? Again, thanks for any suggestions.
By the way, I only have MS 6.52.
