Dear Michael,
My recollection is that the process is:
1. Load the dll etc. into c:\omega\ts,
2. Write ela program for indicator,
3. Add indicator to chart.
I mentioned privately to Jim but perhaps I should add publically here that being
a dll, GlobTime does not work for historical data --- only realtime data that it
(through its array) has collected. In other words, if you stop TS and restart
it, GlobTime loses its data and will begin collecting and charting data only
since the restart.
Sincerely,
Richard
