i'm always open to ideas and am interested in yours, feel free to provide an example of how you would use them on a 1 minute chart, your rationale for choosing that period, and how it would provide greater benefit over any other arbitrary period... length is a measure of totality and is not used in the formula, a period is an interval as defined in the formula... that's my understanding anyway!
It was just a suggestion because as I said originally:-

"If common sense is being used (and moving averages if you may, not my choice at all) the length should be appropriate to the chart timeframe....."

But note TradeStation software (which obviously has been around a loooong time) refers to:-

software engineers are not mathematicians! they even changed the commonly used term "Shift" with "Displace", how many times have you heard the term Displace used in all of the industry?!

the industry is not tradestation, the most widely used trading platforms and educational material use conventional terms Period(s) and Shift as far as i know... but it is really just terminology and doesn't matter because when applied in the formula it all means the same thing...

again, i understand exactly what you are suggesting, and just like moving averages are not your choice at all, your suggestion on how to use them is not my choice at all, but thanks anyway!
