 Is it possible to write a PCF that would create an indicator whose value is the lowest of a set of other indicators?For example: What is the lowest value of the moving averages for time periods 5, 10, 15, 20?

 Yes, it is possible to do so using the techniques in the Min Max PCFs topic. So if the Moving Averages are Simple, the formula would be:

(AVGC5 + AVGC10 - ABS(AVGC5 - AVGC10) + AVGC15 + AVGC20 - ABS(AVGC15 - AVGC20) - ABS(AVGC5 + AVGC10 - ABS(AVGC5 - AVGC10) - AVGC15 - AVGC20 + ABS(AVGC15 - AVGC20))) / 4
