Thanks Steve for your response. I am reasonably familiar with the
normal Plot() and AddColumn features. Evidently, what I want to
achieve is not possible unless a loop is used. I have no experience
with loops and find the available Amibroker (and elsewhere)
explanations very confusing. I have asked Support but I don't think
I have been able to explain my problems properly as their response
has only confused me more.
My difficulty is with Loops and plotting information from within the
loop,in this case,e.g. the "Cma". I have tried numerous variations
without success, such as;
Plot(Cma,"Cma",colorYellow);
I think the problem is the actual wording of the Plot() statement
and the AB Help files,that I have studied, don't show how to access
the information.Could you please put me on the right track?
Peter
