Re: Different RSI in MetaStock ?

You're right, Corey. I overlooked Roy Larsen's mail. Thanks.

Do you know how to put this calculation in Excel?
I cannot find the way Wilders smoothing is calculated?

Thanks, have a good weekend.

I believe that Roy was all over this one a few days ago when he wrote:

A:=Input("RSI periods",2,50,14);
B:=C; {RSI target array}
U:=Wilders(If(B>Ref(B,-1),B-Ref(B,-1),0),A);
D:=Wilders(If(B<Ref(B,-1),Ref(B,-1)-B,0),A);
100-(100/(1+(U/D)));

I don't know about you, but it is an exact match with the hard-wired RSI
from MS on my machine.
