Hello Wolfgang... don't understand why differences exist in basic indicators between various software. Seems to be no reason for that. You're fortunate in knowing something about programming. I know little or nothing. Maybe some day but it's sure hard to teach an old dog new tricks. I have no doubt that you'll overcome these annoying problems.

The most annoying detail so far is, that I cannot set a default for how many days of data are read each time I "insert price data". I allways have to "format price data". After loading some 10 years, I can not view the whole chart at least in the "daily" setting but have to scroll. Very inconvenient.

You can set the number of days data that is read by going to "settings" and putting the desired number of days in the "Days back" box. Be sure to check the box at the bottom of this menu "Use compression settings as price data default." Subsequent charts would use the newly "saved" default value. Unfortunately, your monitor determines number of days displayed. As an example, I can see twice the number of days when using two monitors in a "virtual desktop" arrangement. This gives me the horizontal pixel equivalent of two monitors. The other alternative is to go manually decrease the Bar Spacing or go to the "Format Chart Window" and select a low value for Bar Spacing.

The MARKET LOOKS SICK and is likely to get worse. Think the UPS strike will take its toll. Everything will cost more when its over inviting renewed inflation fears and possible tightening by the FED at its next meeting if not before. Not sure I'll have time to look indepth at the charts this evening as I'm still trying to get ready for tomorrows meeting with my CPA. If I get a chance I'll comment later this evening.

Good trading,
Bill
