Dow Cash v FTSE 100 Indices

[boycee]

Hi there,

Can you tell me how to chart the difference between the Dow 30 Cash and the FTSE 100 index?

i.e $Indu minus whatever the FTSE 100 Index symbol is

Hello boycee,

Try the formula below. It will plot a line as an indicator and can be used while your chart is set to any symbol.

I'm not sure if $UKX-FTSE is the symbol you want to use for the FTSE 100. If not, you can find what you are looking for here.

function preMain() {
    setPriceStudy(false);
    setStudyTitle("Dow 30 Cash Vs. FTSE 100 ");
    setCursorLabelName("Difference ", 0);
}

function main() {
    var vValue = 0;
    var c1 = close(0, 1, "$INDU");
    if (c1 == null) {
        return;
    }
    var c2 = close(0, 1, "$UKX-FTSE");
    if (c2 == null) {
        return;
    }
    
    vValue = (c1 - c2);

    return (vValue);
}
