I have created some simple relative strength indicators which I use in sorts but I sort them by rank. Example: 1 month relative strength:(C / C20) * 100
3 month relative strength: (C / C62) * 100 I would like to plot the Rank of these indicators for backtesting purposes. Can this be done?

Unfortunately, no.

You can, however, create a separate PCF for different "time snapshots" ... that is, your 3moRS rank five days ago would be sortable in a WL column using the formula:
C5 / C67 * 100

You could assign a series of these PCF's to adjacent WL tab columns and sort away on them.

Finally .. if you have some skill with Excel and if your list is not terribly long, they you could export the history for those symbols, then import it into Excel, and plot it there.

I hope this helps!
