How does one, in RealCode reference another symbol? As an example, let's say I want to plot the RSI14 of the SP-500 vs. the RSI14 of the NDX-X on the same plot. I can't find any reference to how to reference external symbols.Any help greatly appreciated!

Page 49 of the RealCode Reference manual has info on accessing price data for a different symbol than the active chart.

This can also be accomplished without using RealCode.

Add an RSI indicator pane to a chart displaying SP-500.

Add a "Price for Symbol" indicator on the chart.  Change the symbol for the default DJ-30 to NDX--X.

Add an RSI child indicator to price in the NDX-XX pane.  Change its default color.

Copy and paste the NDX--X RSI onto the pane with the SP-500 RSI.

You can now, if you want delete the NDX--X price pane.

Perfect - thanks to both of you for the two different solutions.
