Guys Thanks for the response. I really do appreciate the detail response giving to my questions. I must admit that I am pleasantly surprise by the capabilities possessed by Amibroker. After reading the various replies, I have some more follow up question that I would like to ask. I have decided to Give each question an individual topic.
Again Thanks
ACE
