[amibroker] Re: Daily H/L on Tick Chart

["Don Tracy" <don@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks William, you nailed it for me.

I guess I was heading in the right direction.  This is what I had 
written:

TimeFrameSet( inDaily); // switch to Daily frame 
HighDaily = High; //High from Daily High
TimeFrameRestore(); // restore time frame to original 
TimeFrameSet( inDaily); // switch to Daily frame 
LowDaily = Low; //Low from Daily Low
TimeFrameRestore(); // restore time frame to original 
Plot( High, "Price", colorWhite, styleBar ); 
// plot expanded average 
Plot( TimeFrameExpand( HighDaily, inDaily), "High From Daily Chart", 
colorGreen ); 
Plot( TimeFrameExpand( LowDaily, inDaily), "Low From Daily Chart", 
colorRed ); 

Of coarse, it wasn't quite right.

Thanks for the solution, I appreciate it.
