This formula will return the value of an RSI 14, 20.


RSI14.20


You will have to replace the 14 and 20 with the settings that match the RSI you use on the charts.

Once you create this PCF you can either sort by it OR add it to any EasyScan and use the VALUE scale on the range selector to limit it to any value range... including MIN to 30.

Here are some videos to review:

I've tried the following PCF to find stocks that were below 30 yesterday and above 30 today.

RSI14 > 30 AND RSI14.1 <= 30

The results are not what I expected. Can you help me?

There are two settings for RSI needed in the PCF. What RSI are you using on the chart?

Have you ever tried the PCF WIZARD?

It will write these for you.

I referred you to this video, please watch it and note the PCF wizard.

Thank you!

This should work then:

RSI14.1 > 30 AND RSI14.1.1 <= 30

RSI14.1 > 30 AND RSI14.1.1 <= 30
----------------------------------------------

(That was for RSI crossing the value line of 30 upwards).

1) My Question is this: In the TC 2005 Platinum, will the above PCF work for the 30-min bars, or even 5 min-s bars?

2) In other words, am I correct assuming that the syntax RSI14.1.1 or C21 would still mean "RSI(14.1) one bar prior to the current bar, and "Closing price 21 bars prior"? (regardless of whether it is a Dayly bar or any of the Intra Day bars, or a weekly bar.)

I am asking these questions while deciding what benefits the Platinum version would deliever, if I order it, and whether the same strategies used with the daily bars can be deployed with the intra-day bars, perhaps wothout changing any syntax.

3) Also, I am trying to write a Divergence PCF for an indicator, of which RSI is but one example. Do you think I could use something like MAX ( RSI14.1.1, RSI14.1.2,...,RSI14.1.11) for finding a peak among the values of RSI during the last 10 bars?

Thank you.

1) Yes, just plot it as a CUSTOM PERCENT TRUE indicator then visually sort by it. Check out these two videos:

Visually Backtesting Specific Symbols

Real time indicator sorting (available at the Platinum level)

2) As a PCF, the periods are daily (14 means 14 days). As a custom indicator, the 14 means bars (14 minutes on a 1-minute chart).

3)

MAX(RSI14.1,10)

This will return the highest value for RSI14.1 for the past 10 days.
