Alex,
It may not help but my final thing to do with all looks good but
doesn't work is. Copy and paste to a new indicator name. It has
fixed the problem more times than I can remember. Fastest solution if
it works also.

I would be surprised if Pinnacle EOD data contains errors as you describe.
Following your suggestion above, I just checked the US Dollar Index
reverse-adjusted history file that I'm working with now (and with which TS
generates an error). I found, for the full history since 1/2/1986:
- zero instances of dates out of order
- zero instances of close = 0
- zero instances of low > high
- zero instances of open or close outside of high-low range
- one instance of open = high = low = close, on 8/1/2008
Looks okay to me. Did I miss anything?
