has built into ami you should get nothing the graph with a message up the top 
left corners saying  axo/axo rs ==1 (stock the same)

RELSTRENGTH

G'day,
 
I have XBF as the index for Bankingsetup in 
Ami for that Ami Industry. 
 
I have an indicator (Thanks to David H & 
Tomasz) - graph0 = RELSTRENGTH(""); showing in a window.
 
When I click on XBF and view its chart -I don't 
get a horizontal straight line graph as I would expect when I compare the 
index to itself.
 
I must be doing something wrong. 
 
I do have scaling set to Automatic and grid lines 
set to limit
 
Any ideas ?
 
Thanks,
 
Geoff
