Description:
Overlays a symbol as a price study and auto scales the overlay symbol's prices to match the price levels of your chart's symbol.
Formula Parameters:
nSymbol: Enter a symbol for comparison. Default is set to $SPX.
nFactor: Multiplier that adjusts nSymbol to match the price level of the chart’s symbol
Notes:
The overlay symbol and nFactor for scaling can be changed via the “Edit Studies” option. The initial nFactor is based on the first (oldest) bar in your chart. It is recommended to apply a custom time template to your chart that limits the number of days or bars loaded into your chart. The current value of the nFactor is displayed in the cursor label window.
