How is the Indicated Value calculated?

The Indicated Value formula is based on information presented in the 3rd edition of Options as a Strategic Investment by Lawrence G. McMillan. In Chapter 30, Mathematical Applications, McMillan describes a method for calculating upward and downward stock potential in which a price move of one standard deviation is assumed.
If S = 0, IV = P
If S > 0, IV = P + Dif
If S < 0, IV = P - Dif
Where:
IV = Indicated Value
S = 3-day slope of closing price
P = Current price
Dif = Absolute Value {P -[P ´ exp( A ´ V ´ Ö T )]}
A = Number of standard deviations (always = 1)
V = Volatility ¸ 100
T = days until Analysis Date ¸ 365
exp = exponential function: exp(x) = e(x)
