Angel,

 The StTO is really nothing unique. It is basically a momentum indicator
and plots very similar to the "Chande Momentum Oscillator" with the
main difference being the "StTO" doesn't seem to swing as far as the CMO.
 I am not sure how the math is calculated for the CMO,but the (basic) math
 for the StTO is:
                (Close- Yesterday's Close) / (H-L)

Here is the MetaStock code I use:

name: StTO

  {Short-term Trend Oscillator}
Lb:=Input("Smoothing Period?",1,60,5);
Num:=C-Ref(C,-1);
Den:=H-L;
Mn:=If(Mov(Num,Lb,S)=0,.01,Mov(Num,Lb,S));
Md:=If(Mov(Den,Lb,S)=0,.01,Mov(Den,Lb,S));
(Mn/Md)*100
