Thanks Steve.
disadvantages I see... (please set me straight if you don't agree!)
1. using foreign() slows code down... it seems to be one of the operations in AB that requires a heavier overhead.
2. difficult to use this method when you have he same piece of code (insert linked) on 8 charts all looking at different symbols...
