mark,
very zen! but i guess i didn't frame my question very well...
certainly the open doesn't change. but my desire to paint it does! meaning
that, the conditions that my cause to paint the daily bar change intraday.
therefore, i need to repaint the bar in its entirety based on current
conditions.
i hope that makes more sense. and thanks in advance for enlightening me ;-)

Hello john,
the open never changes - it is what it is - from there forward what
can change? the high and the low - when are those established? only
after the close, therefore the high and low are dynamic depending
upon the close to happen. the open is history and so that is
established.
