[amibroker] One chart instead of several ones.

["af_1000000" <af_1000000@xxxxxxxxx>]

I use multiple timeframes quite extensively. For that purpose I created several layouts (each for a different symbol) with multiple charts. Charts have the same indicators (setups, triggers, follow-ups, .. etc). It's interesting to watch how everything flows from one timeframe to another.
Unfortunately, this approach requires watching several charts at the same time. Our brains are not designed to do it in the most efficient way. I use four monitors and this is barely enough to handle two symbols (other staff requires some real estate too).

Since all charts use the same indicators it would be highly desirable to combine all the charts into one (with the lowest timeframe)as long as indicators values on that one chart (from multiple timeframes) are the same as on separate charts. AB, on every refresh, displays indicator values based on current values of O, H, L, C (current value) regardless whether the bar is complete or not. 

The existing AB's multiple timeframe functionality does not allow to implement the above concept, because indicators are calculated on complete bars only. One hour timeframe means wait 1 hour to see values of indicators (now imagine 20 points drop on rally over that time on ES).

TJ. I wonder if there is a chance to expand the existing multi timeframe functionality by adding an option "Include current values".
It seems that the desired functionality is already in place, just not available in every place where needed.
