I am taking a course on options that uses Stock Charts.com.  I printed some of the charts using the indicator RSI and the RSI on the chart is different in comparison to the TC2000 RSI.  For example on a 
chart in July 2006 the RSI on Stock Charts.com stays below 70 while TC2000 shows that the RSI going
above 70 plus the over all appearance of the RSI does not match when comparing  Stock Charts.com and TC2000.

I checked the RSI on the Stock Charts.com against Mega Stock Charts and they match.

Is there some  variable other than 14 in the TC2000 RSI?  I did notice that the RSI on Stock Charts shows an additional two other variables 27, 78.  Is there anyway the adjustments for TC2000 RSI can
be changed to match the RSI being used in the Stock Charts.com by the instructors of the course I am taking?

Thanks

Ronald Rogers

rrprrogers,

To match Stockcharts, chose the same RSI period in Telechart and make sure that you check "Use Wilder's Smoothing"
Enter 1 for the Avg Period.
For example a 14,1 with "Use Wilders Smoothing Checked" will match Stockcharts exactly.
