Maybe one of the real programmers could comment... Is it possible to call an
internal AFL or cpp function to write to a ticker data file from the charts?
This can be done from AA, but why not from the charts? Seems like some data
plugin code might be used to do this. Alternatively, can we link through
some type of link or query to another type of database that could be updated
online.
Whew....and good night!
