The
help files are full of information. I found this with the simple search
"reference symbol" in quotes...
Regards,
Jayson
Pad and align to <FONT
color=#ffffff>reference symbol
When this is turned on, all symbols' quotes are padded and aligned to <FONT
color=#ffffff>reference symbol. Note:
by default this setting is OFF. Use responsibly. It may slow down backtest and
introduce some slight changes to indicator values when your data has holes and
holes are filled with previous bar data. The feature is intended to be used ONLY
when your system uses general market timing (generates global signals based on
data and/or indicators calculated using Foreign from 'reference' symbol). Note
2: if reference
symbol does not exist, data won't be padded.
