I must be doing something basically wrong. I followed your suggestion,
and here is the Metastock error message I got when I tried to plot the
indicator:

"The following error occurred while calculating Test-Security()

Error retrieving data for Security function. No Security with a
compatible periodicity found in folder path: D:\etc."

So Metastock would not accept a security with a monthly data format
plotted on a daily chart.
