Re: Chart Scan Alert (help please)

What is the purpose of using "Commoditynumber" ?  Why not use
"Getsymbolname" ?   Who assigns the CommodityNumber?  I never
got the function to work in Ts 3.0 or 3.5.  In fact, many others
could not either.  TS 4.0 added "getsymbolname" to avoid the
CommodityNumber problem.

donc
