Lopez,

I just checked to make sure and I was capable of displaying 8 years 
of daily data. If you want to look at a chart with another 
periodicity then right click on the date display and choose either 
daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, or yearly.

Should you adjust the lookback periods for a longer view? Your 
choice. How should you do this? As I mentioned there are 5 trading 
days in a week. Some people like fibonacci numbers and choose those. 
You're likely to see 14 and 28 used a good bit. Doesn't mean they 
are the gold standard, just that someone likes them. For a year you 
could choose 250 periods. One thing that you should realize when 
adjusting the lookback periods is that your indicators will no 
longer be as sensitive as they once were.

If I can be of anymore assistance just let me know,


Preston


BTW: Have you read the manual or formula primer?

I know that I have to take a look at the graph at the weekly 
periodicity. How many days periods should I use if I want to see a 
stock expressed in a weekly periodicity?
