I would like to create an indicator for a line that would render the following in Stockfinder 5 :

(previous day's close + previous day's high + previous day's low) / 3


I have tried very hard .... without success !!!!

Many thanks

Thanks Bruce. This is what I was looking for .... but the line of the indicator, when overlaid over price, is not located exactly where it should be .... e.g. on AFL, today, the value of the indicator is 55.97.... and the line is at the level of 56.25 more or less .... is there any way that I can resolve that?
