Spread MOV Error Squared Error

4.5 3 4.5 - 3 = 1.5 (1.5)^2 = 2.25
0.5 9 0.5 - 9 = -8.5 (-7.5)^2 = 72.25
4.5 -6 4.5 - -6 = 10.5 (10.5)^2 = 110.25
9 -3 9 - -3 = 12 (12)^2 = 144
9.5 13 9.5 - 13 = -3.5 (-3.5)^2 = 12.25
9.5 -3 9.5 - -3 = 12.5 (12.5)^2 = 156.25
1.5 2 1.5 - 2 = -0.5 (-0.5)^2 = 0.25
5 1 5 - 1 = 4 (4)^2 = 16
7 10 7 - 10 = -3 (-3)^2 = 9
9.5 2 9.5 - 2 = 7.5 (7.5)^2 = 56.25
8 10 8 - 10 = -2 (-2)^2 = 4
10 8 10 - 8 = 2 (2)^2 = 4
9.5 -6 9.5 - -6 = 15.5 (15.5)^2 = 240.25
8 -3 8 - -3 = 11 (11)^2 = 121
6 4 6 - 4 = 2 (2)^2 = 4
10 -1 10 - -1 = 11 (11)^2 = 121
6.5 -6 6.5 - -6 = 12.5 (12.5)^2 = 156.25
8.5 8 8.5 - 8 = 0.5 (0.5)^2 = 0.25
Taking the average of the "Squared Error" terms yields roughly a "mean squared error" (or "MSE") of 64.83. Taking the square root yields a root mean squared error (RMSE) of √64.83 ≈ 8.05.
