[EquisMetaStock Group] Re: Plotting monthly data on a daily chart

Jose:

Perhaps I don't understand, but I tried two different approaches: 
neither worked.
1. Plotted a 1 period SMA ON the monthly data/monthly chart. Then did 
a Ctrl-C of the SMA to an inner window on the daily chart. Just got a 
series of dots; one on the first day of each month.
2) Copied the monthly data to the daily chart. (this plots a series of 
dots on the first day of each month). Then plotted a 1 period SMA in 
that window. Got 1 dot/month on top of the monthly data dots.

Did I misinterpret what you were suggesting?
