Craig, can you or anyone help with a current question:

Suppose you have several different-period moving averages on your MSWin chart. Viewing them over time you can see where they all sometimes seem to come together, and other times they are all somewhat further apart.

I'm trying to think of a way of asking mathematically for the condition where all of the MAs are relatively close together. From a statistics standpoint, one would merely use standard deviation. We have, say, five subjects, and plug in the five values at the one point in time where we are taking the measurement, and look at the standard deviation number. Then compare that with other groups of five subjects, or what ever.

But with MSWin, the standard deviation looks at *one* subject over a period of time, say 5 periods. That's not what I want.

Adding them all and dividing by the number of MAs would not provide such an answer as I'm seeking.

Can anyone think of a straightforward way of doing this in MSWin?

Thanks,
Nicholas
