SC Engineering: I am unable to reproduce the functionality of Overlay(single line) using the new AddAdditionalSymbol study due to an implementation limitation I'm guessing you are unaware of. I'll strive to be as concise as possible describing the issue. When using Overlay(single line) to overlay a price series from one DAILY chart to another DAILY chart, what you get is a line-on-close plot of closing prices PLUS you see the LAST price displayed at the right edge of the chart. It moves up and down with the market during the course of the intraday session, just like the price on a DAILY chart moves up and down during the session. Now try to recreate this using AddAdditionalSymbol. I am able to recreate the line-on-close plot through PRIOR CLOSING PRICES, but I am UNABLE to reproduce the behavior of the LAST price being displayed at the right edge of the chart and moving up and down during the intraday session. I am using LINE ON CLOSE as the Graph Draw Type and I'm displaying the LAST (SG4) series on the chart. I get the line-on-close thru prior CLOSING prices, but the LAST in the current session is not displayed. I experimented with different choices from Draw Graph Type but was unable to reproduce what Overlay(single line) achieves. Note: Switching to an INTRADAY chart is not an option for me because CQG limits intraday data on exchange-traded spreads to 30 days and I need more than that on the chart. Bottom line, is there a way to use AddAdditionalSymbol and have the LAST price update on the right edge of the chart through the course of the session the way it does when Overlay(single line) is used?
