Your welcome.
And once you have understood this, then you can explore the PlotOHLC
function as a substitute for the original plot command in the chart.
That way you can get the look you want without actually changing the
Open and Close arrays in case you need to use them later on in the
formula.
Best,
Dennis

Joe,
If you assign the open and close to (high+low)/2 before the plot
statement you will get a horizontal line at the midpoint (not
exactly a dot, but a start).
Then if you want a dot instead, plot the close with a dot style. Or
plot shapes with a small circle if you prefer.
Experiment with these. You should be able to see the results so you
can learn what different things do.
Best regards,
Dennis

Referring to the attached price bar chart, I'm like to modify it to
conform to the format that the late Jim Hurst used in his cycle work.
The Hurst charts were bar charts exactly like the one shown except
that the high and low horizontal marks were omitted and there was a
dot placed on the bar mid point (halfway between the high and low).
The modification isn't extensive but unfortunately beyond my AFL
coding ability.
Any help would be appreciated.
thanks,
