Default Fixed Reference

Change the formula from =A1 to =INDIRECT("A1")

Hi,

Suppose that a cell contains the formula =A1.

When I cut A1 and paste into A2, the formula becomes =A2.
Is that possible to disable this automatic conversion?
Even using absolute reference (=$A$1), it still happens.

I would like that the formula remain the same (=A1) even if I cut A1
and paste elsewhere.

Thanks in advance!
Filipe.
