Function Has Been Partially Removed

Hello,

I am using the Financial toolbox. I noticed alot of functions have a warning that a function has been partially removed.

All technical indicators in the Financial toolbox are marked with this warning. For example, RSI (the most popular technical indicator) have the following warning:

rsindex has been partially removed and will no longer accept a fints object (tsobj) argument. Use a matrix, timetable, or table instead for financial time series. Use fts2timetable to convert a fints object to a timetable object.

What does partially removed mean? Does that mean you are going to remove these functions in future releases, so I should not be using them?

Thank you!

Replace your use of fints objects with timetable as recommended in the Release Notes.

If you plan to remove the fints objects from Matlab, then why does your warning say you are removing the RSI Index? Please, correct this warning as it is misleading. Please, make it clear that you plan to remove the input argument data type and not the function that takes in the argument.

It is correct: the part of the function that deals with this kind of object has been removed.
