RE: Higher timeframe indicator on a lower timeframe chart

I've got a great solution: Power Basic and a free PB_Bones for Tradestation
2K and 6 (other too probably, but not verified).
It has all the ELKit32 function conversions, dll making capability, fast
root language, and
inherently keeps array pointers stored efficiently. The only thing I'm
working on is how to actually do the Global
Variables (only one simple example included, not a GV), although GV's may be
automatic in PB-Bones platform.
Its an elaborate API system with debugging and faultless indexed pointer
ID's.

The final PB-Bones edition was just final edited August 2004, so its hot off
the presses.
Before, other traders used PB to code instead of EL to get around TS speed
problems (similar to EL, C, ...).
So most didn't use it for GVs specifically.

The only problem is there is no one to work on it with. Last time I posted,
Omega site was on the blink for a couple of weeks.
Once I get it going I will fill everyone in, but I'm not an IT guru and it
may take me a while (doah!).
If anyones interested here's the free package:

The technology edge in TS.


Thanks,
Phil
