I am more than a little hampered by the fact that I'm running SuperCharts - not
TradeStation. But - in SuperCharts - whenever you open a new window - it asks
you whether you want to create a "chart" - or a "multidata chart". If you
select the latter - you just load as many charts as you want into the "window"
(up to a maximum of about 35 or so). Then - when you write indicators, showmes,
systems, etc. - basically - you refer to "Close of data1" - "High of data3" -
etc. (although the writing can be a bit more tedious than that). There should
be something similar to that in TradeStation.
FWIW - if you really get into multidata work - I've found it best to use default
places for certain data streams (like data3 will always be tbonds - data10 will
always be advances - data11 will always be declines - etc.). That way - you
don't have to write 5 versions of every indicator you use. Robyn
