<SPAN

<SPAN 
class=439074900-08032004>The Relative Strength Comparative function in Metastock 
is simply one security's price divided by another security's price.  I find 
if you run a moving average through the RSC then you can determine whether the 
stock is outperforming or underperforming.  The security can of course be 
an index too.
<SPAN 
class=439074900-08032004> 
<SPAN 
class=439074900-08032004>To do this in an explorer you have two 
methods:
<SPAN 
class=439074900-08032004>1.    In Metastock v8.01 you can use the 
SECURITY function... ie C/SECURITY("C:\Trading 
Data\Stocks\US\Indices\S&P\SIPGR-RETAIL")
<SPAN 
class=439074900-08032004>2.    In other versions of Metastock, 
you can use the "P" indicator.  ie Open up a chart, click on the price bars 
(so you see the little blocks every 10 or so bars), the in your indicator use 
"P" in your formula.  ie C/P

<SPAN 
class=439074900-08032004>With regards to sector constituents, Metastock in 
itself doesn't easily support sector classifications.  You could consider 
using a data vendor that can generate folders that just contain specific sector 
constituents.  Our custom folder feature gives you this ability (and keeps 
them up-to-date too).

recommendationany recommendations for a program that can 
readmetastock data and allow me to analyze data andproduce 
reports.  Similar to Metastock explorer, butwith more 
capabilities.specifically, I am trying to compare sectors to 
S&Pand than sectors to there individual component stocks.As well as 
being able to compare exchange volume withstock volume to get a feel for 
demand changes.Apparently, Metastock 8.0 EOD doesn't allow me 
toaccess data from other securities, and will not allowme to incorporate 
Relative Strength Comparison amongsecurites, in a custom 
exploration.Thanks,Brian
