Is it possible to write an indicator that will show the percent difference between two different moving averages? For example if I wanted to know how much the Moving average close for 5 days was below the moving average close for 20 days; but instead of showing it as thenumber value the percent value.

Let us sar the 20 day moving average is 100 and the 5 day moving is 97  the number difference 5 day moving average would be about .0309278% below the 20 day moving average. If I could put that in a column, then I could sort the column an see which stocks were the greatest percent difference above or below the other average.

I know how to manually do it but  have the program would be a great time saver, if it is possible to do that.

 

THANK YOU

I'm not sure what technique you eventually used, but probably the easiest way to do this is to add a Price Percent Oscillator (PPO) indicator to the chart.
