Re: [amibroker] firstvisiblebarindex

Hi Graham,

I guess it is the QuickAFL that causes the unexpected behavior - adding that 
seems to have cleared up some of the problems I was having but not all. I 
have a couple of more specific questions regarding this and also the 
different param functions which I think would probably require knowledge of 
AB's internal workings, so I will drop a note to support. Thanks again for 
your help!

Steve
