Is anyone able to provide more detailed information on how this RSIS is
calculated? I can calculate -- or program -- RSI and Stochastics but can

only guess at how they are combined.  Any input???

Instead of calculating Stochastics on the closing price, do this on the
an RSI  value.  ie: Calculate a 13 period RSI then calulate a 5 period
Stochastic
of this value.

Here is Tushar Chande's 'Stochastic Relative Strength Index' in
Metastock's format.  I presumed it's the same thing as the RSIS.  The
attached chart shows how it looks like.  The problem is I still don't
know how to interpret this indicator.  RSI and Slow Stochastics are easy

enough for me to see how they work.  But the RSIS indicator looks
totally foreign to me.  Any further input would be much appreciated:

Stochastic Relative Strength Index

rev. 01/06/97

In his book The New Technical Trader, Tushar Chande defines the
Stochastic RSI as:

StochRSI = (RSI - RSIL)/(RSIH -RSIL)
where RSIL and RSIH are the lowest and highest values of the RSI over a
given period.

In his book he uses 14 periods. The MetaStock™ formula for the
Stochastic RSI is:

( ( RSI ( 14 ) - LLV( RSI (14 ) ,14 ) ) / ( ( HHV( RSI (14 ) ,14 ) ) -
LLV(RSI (14 ),14 )
) )

With regards to the RSIS indicator, I believe it will be necessary to calculate an RSI of a stochastic instead of the opposite.  The reason for this is that calculating a stochatic requires open-high-low data, while the calculation of RSI requires only closing data.  So, once a stochastic is calculated on standard daily data, the %k or %d can be treated as closing data to compute the RSI.

The formula for  a 14 period RSI is as follows:
RSI = 100 - [100 / ( 1 + RS ) ]  Where RS = ( average of 14 day's up closes ) / (average of 14 day's down closes )

Sorry but I do not have a stochastic formula on hand, but it should be easy to get.  In addition to the formulas, it may be necessary to find the exact periods used for each calculation.  14 bars is common, but may not be the period used. If someone finds the answer, please let me know. If some of you are researching this, please keep me posted on your findings.  Thanks !

All the Best !
