> Have them compare "your secs" against the "index" using the "P" operator/indicator.
> By using the " P " indicator, eg as a custom formula "P/C" , you are able to compare

> Using the "P" variable ALWAYS represents the charts' plot where its dropped on, eg
> this can be the Base sec itselve as well as an indicator plotted in any of the

> When plotting, it will always represent an already on a chart plotted but now highlighted

> -Start Metastock

> -In the Name Field type SPX-P indicator
> -In the Formula Field type P/C
> P=Base Close Present
> C=Base Close Original
> -Click OK

> To create Chart/Template/Layout :

> -Open the SPX chart

> as it is then representing the present "P" part of the indicator
> -Open the chart of the FTSE
> -Click on one of the Display Adjusting Tools, eg the "Column" button, to have the

> -From the SPX chart Drag the just made "SPX-P" indicator onto the FTSE chart

> -Click the New | Layout button (here you can also choose Template)
> -Click Add All (this will add both charts)
> -Click OK (from this point on you are able to File | Save As to any folder as either

>
> The program will now calculate, plot and create an always re-usable Layout of the

> If you have saved the above as a Template then you can compare any security against

> To run all the above as a System Test, you will have to create a System Test first using
