I have been complaining about that for a while. Tradestation is just not
built for correlations and visual intermarket analysis.
Try doing objective Macro arbitrage with Tradestation. Just does not work.
However look at Metastock. A simple function called "Create Composite
derrivate" allows you to do exactly that.
(e.g You can with one click create a synthetic yield spread dirrevative
($TYX - $IRX) and apply whatever technical analysis to it.)
Further drawing the two dierrvatives on single chart you can specify each
to have its own seperate scale. One on the left and the
other on the right. I would suggest you get a copy of Metastock 6.5 on the
side as a supplement.
