Spread Charts
On OpenECry trading platform there aren't available spread charts. Does anyone can help me to create spread chart between two contracts (for example wheat contracts: zwu0/zwz0) using Easy Language or some other language for OEC? Spread is a difference between prices of two contracts. Thanks.

Re: Spread Charts
in tradestation it would be something like

plot1( close of data1 - close of data2);

with the two components of the spread applied to the chart.

you could weight them by multiplying by a constant or variable. I think tams has posted something that might fit the bill in the indicator section.
