ahhh, yes you may have a problem using Ox etc. I forgot because I don't use any traditional TA functions so for me there is no problem.
In your case you may be able to redefine OHLC arrays at the top of your code, like so:
Plot(C+ATR(3),"",6,1);
C = C+ATR(3);
Plot(C,"",4,1|styleDots);
You'll see that the first plot produces the exact same plot as the second one which uses a redefined C.
However there may be a reason why redefining the OHLC is not recommended - you may have to ask support what problems this may have.
best regards,
herman
