Hi Preston,
   
  Did you do this or was this available on some site?  It doesn't matter.  THank you very much!
   
  I see two codes.  Is this correct?  Where do I begin the copy and paste from?  Can you point the way, please?
   
  Thank you 
  Al

Rapid RSI

TASC OCT 2006
METASTOCK: Relative Spread Strength 
Ian Copsey's article in this issue, "Relative Spread Strength," 
introduces two variations on the relative strength index (RSI). The 
formula for these indicators and the instructions for adding them to 
MetaStock follow. 
To enter these indicators into MetaStock: 
1. In the Tools menu, select "Indicator Builder." 
2. Click New to open the Indicator Editor for a new indicator. 
3. Type the name of the formula. 
4. Click in the larger window and type in the formula. 
5. Click OK to close the Indicator Editor. 

Name: Rapid RSI
Formula:
tp:= 14; { time periods in RSI calculation}
plot:= C;
change:= ROC(plot,1,$);
Z:=Sum(If(change>0,change,0),tp);
Y:=Sum(If(change<0,Abs(change),0),tp);
Ytemp:=If(y=0,0.00001,y);
RS:=Z/Ytemp;
100-(100/(1+RS))

Name: Relative Spread Strength
Formula:
matp1:=10; {short MA time periods}
matp2:=40; {long MA time periods}
RStp:= 5; { time periods in RSI}
RSsmoothtp:=5; { time periods in smoothing of RSI}
plot:= Mov(C,matp1,E)-Mov(C,matp2,E);
change:= ROC(plot,1,$);
Z:=Sum(If(change>0,change,0),RStp);
Y:=Sum(If(change<0,Abs(change),0),RStp);
Ytemp:=If(y=0,0.00001,y);
RS:=Z/Ytemp;
Mov(100-(100/(1+RS)),RSsmoothtp,S)
