Hi Roger,
        Great, many thanks. Was the code posted somewhere?

Have you looked at the indicators? The ChanLines seem to work okay(ish) 
with end of day data but they are too far apart on intra day data. On 
the ES, for example, with the ES running around 975, the upper channels 
are plotting at 1025, 1075 and 1125. I'm assuming the scale should be 
same as symbol.

Ian
