Hello dear BC users, a couple weeks ago I came across a Amibroker code, that seems to be a good reflection of original RS of Mansfield Charts. I don´t know, what data Mansfiled Chart used for benchmarking (I'm using S&P500 Index), may be they have used any industry or sector averages. I compared pictures of 2 stocks from the book (GT and IBM) with charts from Amibroker and BC. we could see more or less comparable results in Amibroker and totally disagreement with BC. :( here is the formula: ____________________________________________________ maPeriod = Param( "MA Period", 52 * 5, 0, 500, 1 ); rsSymbol = ParamStr( "Base Index Symbol", "^GSPC" ); rs = RelStrength( rsSymbol ); rsMan = ( rs / MA( rs, maPeriod ) ) - 1; dynColor = IIf( rsMan >= 0, colorLime, colorRed ); Plot( rsMan, "RS Mansfield", dynColor, styleArea ); ______________________________________________________       |

I am not sure what Mansfied charts are about but there used to be a post I thought from BC, somewhere on this forum saying there was a problem with the Stan Weinstein stage indicators on BC; so, I would check with BC whether whatever the problem was, in that indicator, has since been fixed. ------------- BC User since June 2007 |

I used to think Relative Strength [Relative Compartive] is relative to the index of the country so if it's IBM, it's part of the DOW Jones ^DJI rather than the S&P 500 index. In Australia though that would have to be part of either the XJO or XAO although that being said, our market is so small we can just pull the index of that sector compared to the XAO/XJO index. p |
