Can you please check that your software is applying the correct formula for the TRIN Market Statistics calculation. For one thing I certainly believe the documentation INCORRECTLY describes the formula (Sierra Chart Market Statistics: Symbols). Here are three external references for the formula which are all the same and are different to your documented formula: http://stockcharts.com/school/doku.php?id=chart_school:technical_indicators:trin https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TRIN_(finance) http://www.investopedia.com/terms/a/arms.asp So naturally I wondered that if the documentation is wrong, is the actual software formula also wrong as I am not getting plots for the S&P500 TRIN that you would expect for the price movement ie what these external 3 sites suggest TRIN should look like in certain market conditions.

The documentation explains the formula in 2 places and in one place it was incorrectly stated but it is now corrected with the correct formula as actually implemented. Reference Sierra Chart Market Statistics: Symbols We have examined the calculation method in our software and it is correct.
