all three in one window, and I cannot determine a way to have one of the
values use the Volume scale on the right, and the other two use a different
scale on the left, so I can displace the plots from each other. As it is I
cannot see the results.

I think I've done what you want using Mark Pyle's GlobalVar dll. I know this
can be used to make an Input() value other than default available as a GV
variable. I also suspect that Using GV to link two indicators may allow you
to transfer the non-default value between the two. The only problem with
linking that may be an issue is that I seem to recall that the second
indicator can only plot one value. Multiple plots are still possible in the
primary indicator. Write to me if you need further help.
