allow custom moving average of today be compared to a previous date moving average
Example:
Date of Search, 13d MA (Price) > 1 day ago 13d MA (Price) [ to ensure 13d MA price slope is positive]
or
Date of Search, 13d MA (Price) = 1 day ago 13d MA (Price) [ to determine slope = 0 of MA, an inflection point]
Allowing this would enable the identification of major changes in trends

VectorVest should enable using a Custom Moving Average as a Stop Criteria in the BackTester. Investors use MAs as a guide for their investing.
