Andreas,
Nice work! The momentum index is indeed the CMO. Just in case anyone is 
interested here is the Chande Momentum Oscillator:

PD:= Input("Lookback Period", 5, 220, 30);
MI:= {Chande Momentum Osc (C,PD)}
((Sum(If(CLOSE,>,Ref(CLOSE,-1),
(CLOSE-Ref(CLOSE,-1)),0),pd))-
(Sum(If(CLOSE,<,Ref(CLOSE,-1),
(Ref(CLOSE,-1)- CLOSE),0),pd))) /
((Sum(If(CLOSE,>,Ref(CLOSE,-1),
(CLOSE-Ref(CLOSE,-1)),0),pd)+
(Sum(If(CLOSE,<,Ref(CLOSE,-1),
(Ref(CLOSE,-1)- CLOSE),0),pd))))*100;
MI;

J.
