  If you want to catch a turn in any MA, you can test for the MA higher than some short period ago, but less than some longer period.
  
  So,
  
  and [sma(x, close) > y days ago sma(x, close)]
  and [sma(x, close) < z days ago sma(x, close)]
  
  where y < z.
  
  Plug in some numbers for x, y and z and experiment for a while to see what you get.

  Thanks, it looks like the following works:
  
  and [sma(200, close) > 30 days ago sma(200, close)]
  and [30 days ago sma(200, close) < 60 days ago sma(200, close)]
  
  This gives me kind of a curve from a previous downtrend into an uptrend...
