One simple way to do something like this is to create one chart with
your stock as data1 and the SPX as data2 using hidden bars. Then
construct an indicator:

   Plot1(Close of data1/Close of data2, "Ratio");

You can set up all the stocks you want to track as a "Custom Data
List" and then page through the stocks one by one. The data1 seres
will be each stock in sequence and data2 will remain as the SPX index.
