Hi,
 
1. Yes, the first plot statement is 
automatically scaled correctly, you should not use any scale argument. 
Then, if you want to plot other things on the same 
scale as the first plot, you should not use any scale arg in 
those plots either - the scale will automatically adjust to 
accomodate the total range of all the plots. This method works good to plot, 
say, MA over price, since the scale should be the same.
 
But it does not work well for, say, volume over price - 
since the volume is so much larger than the price, it will take up most of the 
pane and you will see the price get compessed to almost a straight line at the 
bottom of the pane. To do this, you would want to add StyleOwnScale to the 
volume plot - then it will be plotted over the price using its own scale, 
and both will fill the pane and be readable. Then if you 
wanted to add a 3rd independently scaled indicator, just use StyleOwnScale 
again.
 
But if you wanted to add 2 or more indicators, that use the 
same scale as each other but different  scale from the 
original plot (eg - plot Vol and MA Vol over already plotted 
Price and MA Price, just use StyleLeftAxisScale for Vol and its MA - 
it will create a second scale that can be used by multiple plots, like 
the original scale. TJ has not yet implemented the actual numbered scale on 
the left, but the plots themselves will be correct.

  scale
  Hi Steve,When you say "but different  from the 
  first plot"; does this mean plots without any scale-option?  Also how 
  is the scale for "StyleLeftAxisScale" determined; Does it group plots with 
  this option and uses one with the largest range?  TIA--- In

  StyleLeftAxisScale will have the same scale as each other, but different 
  from the first plot.> > Steve>   ----- Original

  >   Would appreciate it if someone could get me on the right 
  track.  I am overlaying a plot of a function, for example a moving 
  average, on a price chart and want the moving average values to be shown 
  on the left axis.  I use styleLeftAxisScale in the Plot function per 
  the instructions and all that happens is that I get the last value of the 
  moving average shown on the right axis together with the price 
  values.  Based on the Plot instructions and name of the Style 
  function, isn't it possible to display a left axis scale independent 
  of the right axis?> >   Thanks.>
