Hi Dave,
You can actually do exactly what we want in Amibroker.You can set up a daily chart with a weekly and have it linked if you like.The slight dilemna,at least for me is when you set up diffrent chart types or intervals in the other sheets.For instance,if I have a daily and weekly on sheet one,then you must have a daily weekly format on the rest of the sheets.When i said its not truly "customizable",I should have said that you must adhere to the same format and intervals on all the pages,as adding a different time interval in sheet 3 will affect sheet 1..
