Hi

Does anyone know how to create a chart where the value displayed is last price - today's open price?

This is for a 5 min intraday graph

Thx
 
Hi,

Sorry ive been playing around with this and cant get it to work, also would you be able to run a system test on this new "indicator / chart" and appy and indicator to it to generate email signals?

thx

The indicator formula is quite simple:

Ref(C ,-1 ) - OPEN

As for generating emails...I don't know. Is that available in your version of MetaStock?
 
hi

is this the formula for last price - todays open? as it dosent seem to give the right figures on the graph?

thanks
 
Ahhh...Sorry. You're right. That's only one period to the next. I don't know off-hand how to get the last day's close while in an intraday timeframe.
 
That's what the Ref(C ,-1 ) does. The -1 means one period prior. You can put in whatever number you want.
