I would like to calc 2 std deviations on the 5 day moving avg of the high of the day , any ideas for real code.  I see the standard deviation indicator but assume only 1 std is possible.

Thanks tim

 The easy way to do it I believe is to do the following:

Create a RealCode indicator:
plot = price.High

Apply a bollinger band child indicator to that plot with period = 5 and standard deviation = 2.
