Hi,

I'd like to plot a set of ratio of two symbols, for example gld vs uso, using custom indicators. I know I can use the relative strength to achieve that. But I want to display a set of predefined ratios, e.g. spx/dia, iwm/iws, qqqq/dia, etc. on the same chart without changing the symbol. Is there a way to do that?

Thanks.

There is no way to do this without manually filling in the values on a daily basis. We cannot reference specific tickers in the PCF language.

sttstt,

By "There is no way to do this without manually filling in the values on a daily basis." is meant that you have to update the PCF each new day by putting in the current ratio of the closes.

You must be willing to update the PCF in that fashion in order to accomplish what you want.

Thanks,
Jim Murphy
