Yes Ed, that's it. Time is not relevant to the price bar with tick
and volume charts. They appeal mostly to futures traders. eSignal
and TradeStation have volume charts. It should be no big deal to
include them into Amibroker since they should be very similar to
tick charts programatically speaking...the difference being that
the "tick" is replaced with the actual number of contracts traded
for that transaction.
