Hello,

You can enter such values in Symbol->Quote editor.
Create artificial security (Symbol->New) and enter data.
If you have only one value per date just enter the same value
in OHLC fields (you can enter only in close and AB will handle this as well).
To view line chart instead of candlestick use View->Price chart style menu.
