Terry --
Still moving forward:

SetForeign("FVX--X");
O=O/10; H=H/10; L=L/10; C=C/10;
Plot(C,"5yrTreas",colorBlack,1+styleOwnScale,-0.5,5);
for(i=-5;i<51;i++){
   Plot(i/10,"",colorLightBlue,styleOwnScale,-0.5,5);
}
RestorePriceArrays();

Draws the lines and labels them in light blue, but the labels are _wrong_!

However, I have a fix.  In Indicator Builder, change from Automatic to 
Custom and set min to -0.5 and max to 5.  Then the above code works 
correctly.  And then, in fact, the code below works just fine as well.

SetForeign("FVX--X");
O=O/10; H=H/10; L=L/10; C=C/10;
Plot(C,"5yrTreas",colorBlack);  //styleOwnScale not used
for(i=-5;i<51;i++){
   Plot(i/10,"",colorLightBlue); //styleOwnScale not used
//  or PlotGrid(i/10,colorBack);  works also
}
RestorePriceArrays();

or just:

SetForeign("FVX--X");
O=O/10; H=H/10; L=L/10; C=C/10;
Plot(C,"5yrTreas",colorBlack);  //styleOwnScale not used

and check 'Middle' under grid lines for default spacing.

As for the purpose of:
Plot(C,"5yrTreas",colorBlack,1+styleOwnScale,-0.5,5);
I believe that it can be used to show a compressed plot (of secondary 
interest only), if the actual grid or scale on the right hand side is 
not important to you.  The statement below plots the volume and its 
moving average at half its max height so that it might not interfere 
with a price plot on the same graph.

Vmax = LastValue(Highest(Volume))*2; // better to limit to bars in view 
(for a later exercise)
Plot( V, "Volume", colorBlue, styleHistogram | styleThick | 
styleOwnScale,0,Vmax);
Plot( MA( V,15), "MAV", colorLightBlue, styleOwnScale,0,Vmax);

As for 'styleLeftAxisStyle, I still don't "get it".

BTW, both Graham and Herman made interesting comments.  However, they 
didn't address my real problem, getting a displayed grid to properly 
match a foreign equity.

Thanks to all.
