JC,

I want to align the '0' in the MACD, with the say, '50' in the RSI.

Not as easy as you expect, and MSWIN does not keep the alignment using two separate scales.

RSI has a fixed range of 0-100. MACD has no absolute bounds on its range. Unless you set some kind of limit on bound in advance, how will you map MACD highs and lows against the indicator window? One way I've tried includes taking HHV and LLV for MACD over a long period, and using these values as bounds. You get some distortion, but it's an approach you could explore.

Paul

Hi JC,

Another method that might work is to an axis shift of
MACD or the RSI.

Using the indicator builder:

MACD_shifted = (MACD +50)*K where K is a scaler say 1-10

or

RSI_shifted = (RSI -50)*K where K is a scaler say .1 to 1

hope this helps
