Richard --
Sorry, regarding the TimeFrame functions, you're asking the wrong guy.
All I did was add it the code:
Filter = 1; // set filter to select which bars to display
AddColumn(wex, "wex"); // the more the merrier
AddColumn(dex, "dex");
AddColumn(a, "wdavg");

Hello Keith,
This is precisely what I have done to modify the original code.
TimeFrameExpand fills up the weekly gap in daily data.
However, can you explain why average calculated from daily data
(green plot line in my AFL code) is different to the average
calculated using TimeFrameSet (red plot line)?
Regards
Richard
