Display the Dow in data1, Nikkei in data2.  Figure out how many 
bars of lag there are between the open of the Dow and the open of 
the Nikkei.  E.g. if you use 60min bars there might be an 8 hour 
difference, so there's an 8 bar lag.  Then write your indicator 
to use "Close" for the Dow and "Close[8] of data2" for the 
Nikkei.  Modify the "8" to be whatever your bar-lag is.
