Hi, is it possible to get the formulas or calculation methods for EMA, Study Angle & RSI?

Also is it possible to extract the data points from a 1 minute chart and layer these over a 1 second spreadsheet? We would want every data point that occurs within a 1 second timeframe.

I ask because we want to start analyzing specific values and to do this we would need every 1 second tick rather that the data point that a 1 minute chart produces on the close of each bar.

Thanks Adam

You can look at the source code for all three of those studies.

The only way to do this is to use a chart with the chart bars set to 1 Number of Trades per Bar or 1 Second. Otherwise there is no way to access each data point within the bar.

I believe this would work for us, if we would be using the same input values for say RSI & MACD on the 1 minute chart and 1 second chart and then layered those data points onto a spreadsheet. Would the same values be portrayed in both time frames? Say the 06:55:55 timeframe?
