Re: [amibroker] Changing Styles in AFL

["Steve Dugas" <sjdugas@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks Graham!

Here is a good one that TJ wrote for me when I first bought AB. It handles 
any situation where your data provider fills in the O, H, and L with the C, 
making AB think it is displaying continuous quotations, which results in 
little flat bars on the price chart. This will display true continuous 
quotes as candles, and all others as a line (or change them to whatever you 
want).

Style = LastValue( IIf( LastValue( Cum( Open != Close ) == 0 ), styleLine, 
styleCandle) );

Plot( Close, "Close", colorBlack, Style );
