Hi and many thanks for your response. I've purchased stockChartX some
months ago, but to be honest I didn't have the time yet to fully
explore its capabilities (though I've noticed that in order to produce
my custom indicators would put me in a kind of trouble). I know I can
export easily this way but my main task is to develop and test my
systems (for my own use) so let's say I don't want to lose a lot of
time with "technical" things. When I'll really have enough spare time
I'll give it my best try.
Best Regards,
mc
