Lance, Thanks a million for this answer. I asked the question last
October 31st and didn't get any responses. I spent a whole weekend
importing the daily data for about 650 stocks into GS from the 3rd
party directory to get around this problem. (GS data doesn't change
the days back from your first chart to the next). Since my RT data
provider doesn't correct bad ticks after the fact and my EOD
historical data provider does this makes a difference. I can use the
3rd party directory again for chart scanning and not overstuff my
array which brings everything to a screeching halt.
And a tip of the hat to Chris as well for asking the question.
