Standard Normal: Data Point

Abbreviation: StndNormPoint
Category: Statistical
Input Parameters:

Name Range Default
Time Series
Periods Int >= 2 10
Z-Score Real 1.5

 
Calculation:

mean(X) + Z-Score * StndDev(X,n)

where
mean(X) = mean average of X over the last n periods

X = Time Series
n = Periods

StndDev represents Standard Deviation

 
Discussion:

Provides a data value relative to a time series mean and standard deviation. A Z-score of one returns the mean plus one standard deviation, while a Z-score of two returns the mean plus two standard deviations. Likewise, a Z-score of negative one returns the mean minus one standard deviation, while a Z-score of negative two returns the mean minus two standard deviations.
