Thanks Tomasz.

However, the new drawing tools (arrow and zig zag) aren't appearing 
on the drawing toolbar for me. Is there some other way to get at them?

previous version it was 2160000

and they will interfere with weekly/monthly.

creates 5-day bars that DO NOT necesarily cover Monday-Friday 
>   while inWeekly ALWAYS creates bars that begin on Monday and end 
on Friday. Also 25*inDaily creates 25-day bars that DO NOT necesarily 
represent full month, while inMonthly always begins with first day of 
the month and ends at the last day of the month

2160000 for monthly then you MUST change your code to use inWeekly 
constant and inMonthly constant instead.

for example profit target stop is hit on the same bar then profit

evaluated before all other stops.
