You can't. TS only supports buys, sells, stops, etc on Data1.
You can construct a synthetic spread for backtesting purposes -- just
chart your two markets and write the spread OHLC to a file, then
chart that in data1. But you can't do that in realtime, unless you
want to try something fancy like charting Mkt1 and Mkt2 in one
window, calculating and writing out the spread to a file, and then
forcing a second chart to re-read and chart the file at the end of
each bar. Messy.
If you don't use stops, you could compute your buy/sell points by
calculating the spread value between data1 and data2, or data2/3, or
whatever. What you actually buy and sell in data1 is fairly
irrelevant. Then just follow the system's buy/sell signals when they
hit. But this won't work if you need to use stops on the spread.
