Attribute Question

I have two time series that I want to feed into a learning algorithm, probably start with a neural net or SVM.  When I plot the time series, the gap or vertical space between the two lines is meaningful.  However, should I make this an attribute?  Or would the absolute position of each point be sufficient (the vertical space can be derived from absolute position)?  Generally, how do I know when I should construct a synthetic / derived attribute?
