That code won't work in Ts4. I will try to recode 
to ts4 after the close. With the autor's permission if possible.

  Histogram
  It should work on any market.  I ran into that error 
  the first time I ran itand can only remember looking at max bars and also 
  the number of days in thechart window.  For one tick bars I set the # 
  of days to 2, the minimum forTS.  Also I made the EveryMins and 
  MinsBack inputs to be the same.  Don'tthink I changed anything else 
  other than the Time1 and Time2 to match mydata.  You might try 
  changing the Make Date1(0) input so it only plots onthe current day, i.e. 
  Date(1).  Date(0) will plot for all days.bob-----
