You may plot gridlines at will.
Example1:[plots 10 gridlines from top to bottom]
I0=LastValue(LLV(L,Cum(Status("barvisible"))));
I1=LastValue(HHV(H,Cum(Status("barvisible"))));
DI=(I1-I0)/10;//calibrate the # of the gridlines
for(I=I0;I<I1;I=I+DI)
{PlotGrid(I,colorLightGrey);}
Plot(C,"C",1,64);
or
I0=LastValue(LLV(L,Cum(Status("barvisible"))));
I1=LastValue(HHV(H,Cum(Status("barvisible"))));
DI=0.5;//gridlines every $0.5
for(I=I0;I<I1;I=I+DI)
{PlotGrid(I,colorLightGrey);}
Plot(C,"C",1,64);
