Re: Re[2]: Bars to the right

If you want some extra space to the right, put the 60 minute as data1 and
the 1 minute as data2. Hide the 60 minute data. You will get space to the
right that is one hour's worth of 1 minute bars just after the hour turn,
and is reduced bar by bar until it is negligable right on the hour (at least
in TS4).

Hello TaoOfDow,

I just tried that.  didn't work here.  the higher timeframe bar plots
at the same vertical space as the most recent lower timeframe bar.
