I have tried and cannot figure out how to add a displacement to the STC plot below. Please help

Code: 
# TOS Schaff Cycle
declare lower ;
input show_label = yes ;
input OB = 80 ;
input OS = 20 ;
# ########################################################
#Using GlobalColors makes the colors modifiable
DefineGlobalColor("maxxed", CreateColor(0, 70, 30)) ;
DefineGlobalColor("rising",  CreateColor(0, 165, 0)) ;
DefineGlobalColor("bear",  CreateColor(225, 0, 0)) ;
DefineGlobalColor("begin", CreateColor(50, 200, 255)) ;
DefineGlobalColor("zero", CreateColor (200, 125, 255)) ;
# ########################################################
Plot Schaff  = SchaffTrendCycle()."STC" ;
# ########################################################
#Schaff> Schaff[1] this statement is saying if the current candle is greater than the previous candle
#that is what [1] denotes. Thus defining uptick. The same is then done for downticks.
Schaff.AssignValueColor(
if Schaff> OB then GlobalColor("maxxed") else
if Schaff< OS and Schaff< Schaff[1] then GlobalColor("zero") else
if Schaff< OS and Schaff> Schaff[1] then GlobalColor("begin") else
if Schaff> Schaff[1] then GlobalColor("rising")
     else GlobalColor("bear"));
Schaff.SetLineWeight(3);
# ########################################################

plot OverBought = OB;
plot OverSold = OS;
plot UpArrow = if Schaff crosses above OverSold then OverSold else Double.NaN;
plot DownArrow = if Schaff crosses below OverBought then OverBought else Double.NaN;

DefineGlobalColor("OBcolor", CreateColor(171, 171, 225)) ;
DefineGlobalColor("OScolor", CreateColor(220, 220, 128)) ;
OverBought.SetDefaultColor(GlobalColor("OBcolor"));
OverSold.SetDefaultColor(GlobalColor("OScolor"));
UpArrow.SetPaintingStrategy(PaintingStrategy.ARROW_UP);
DownArrow.SetPaintingStrategy(PaintingStrategy.ARROW_DOWN);
UpArrow.SetDefaultColor(color.dark_green);
DownArrow.SetDefaultColor(color.dark_red);
# ########################################################
# The same logic that was used in coloring the plot can be used in labels
AddLabel(show_label,
         if Schaff> OB then "Schaff maxxed" else
         if Schaff< OS and Schaff< Schaff[1] then "Schaff bottomed" else
         if Schaff< OS and Schaff> Schaff[1] then "Schaff Trend BEGIN" else
         if Schaff> Schaff[1] then "Schaff rising " +round(Schaff,2)
              else "Schaff falling " +round(Schaff,2) ,
         if Schaff> OB then GlobalColor("maxxed") else
         if Schaff< OS and Schaff< Schaff[1] then GlobalColor("zero") else
         if Schaff< OS and Schaff> Schaff[1] then GlobalColor("begin") else
         if Schaff> Schaff[1] then GlobalColor("rising")
              else GlobalColor("bear"));
AddCloud(if Schaff >= OB then Schaff else Double.NaN, OB,
GlobalColor("maxxed"), GlobalColor("maxxed"));
AddCloud(if Schaff <= OS then OS else Double.NaN, Schaff,
GlobalColor("zero"), GlobalColor("zero"));

Try adding this input and change the plot as below. Change offset to your liking.

Input offset = 0;
Plot Schaff = SchaffTrendCycle()."STC" [offset];
