MetaStock's RSI uses Wilders smoothing (EMA). If the periods loaded are the same then the values should be as well. Do you have the Retain scale option checked in the chart? This bypasses the load options, so it may be loading a different amount of periods than is set in the load options. Try opening the security with a clean template and plotting an RSI(9). The clean template does not have retain scale set. You can also count how many bars are in the chart by plotting the following formula Cum(1)
