This is inherently going to be difficult to do. It is not something we are going to be looking at any time soon. There are just too many complications with doing something like this.

Displaying, both an X an O in the same column.
“When price reverses by one box only and then reverses again in the opposite direction, the new X or O is plotted in the same column, not a new one. This is the one-step-back principle.”

We just are not interested in getting involved in this. We are being honest. We really have no interest to get involved in this at all. We have too many other priorities. Please create your own chart bars:
ACSIL Interface - Custom Chart Bars

So our decision is, we are not going to be looking at this at all. Besides we would never get to this until five years from now. It is pointless even asking us for anything new at this point.
