Re: [amibroker] Re: different values in plot and interpretation window

Thanks for the responses Ed and Graham.  I understand about the
difference between expandfirst and expandlast.  My question though is
about why, when I use expandlast, the interpretation window displays a
different value than the chart plot on the last bar of the day
(viewing on 5 min. for example).

I'm using ver. 5.20 by the way.
