Since displacements to the right are positive and displacements to the left are negative, the average is always zero, so it is more convenient to use the root mean square (RMS) – defined as the square root, of the average, of the squares. Measured this way, the deviation of the hypothetical stock from its starting point grows with the square root of time.
