Hi Paul,
in your case is definitely better to do as already suggest by the other guys
but, according to me, sometimes it could be useful to divide one pane in two or
more zones. the reason could be:
1) to share variables without using Static variables (to keep AFL more simple)
2) to have zones syncronized in a very fluid way (panes that share static
variables are, at the best, syncronized every 1s setting RequestTimedRefresh( 1
); )
I usually do it using the following functions to calculate min and max value to
be used in plot with styleownscale
I hope it could help
bye

function MinZone( array, PercZoneLow, PercZoneHigh )
{
fvb = Status( "firstvisiblebar" );
lvb = Status( "lastvisiblebar" );
HHVMax = -100000000;
LLVMin = 100000000;
for ( i = fvb; i <= Lvb; i++ )
{
HHVMax = Max( array[ i ], HHVMax );
LLVMin = Min( array[ i ], LLVMin );
}
MinZ = ( PercZoneLow * HHVMax - PercZoneHigh * LLVMin ) / ( PercZoneLow -
PercZoneHigh );
return MinZ ;
}
function MaxZone( array, PercZoneLow, PercZoneHigh )
{
fvb = Status( "firstvisiblebar" );
lvb = Status( "lastvisiblebar" );
HHVMax = -100000000;
LLVMin = 100000000;
for ( i = fvb; i <= Lvb; i++ )
{
HHVMax = Max( array[ i ], HHVMax );
LLVMin = Min( array[ i ], LLVMin );
}
MinZ = ( PercZoneLow * HHVMax - PercZoneHigh * LLVMin ) / ( PercZoneLow -
PercZoneHigh );
MaxZ = ( LLVMin - MinZ ) / PercZoneLow + MinZ;
return MaxZ ;
}
// example: use the above functions to define min and max values of
styleownscale
// please note that axes type has to be linear (logartimic type requests little
modification in the code)
// please also note that plot style has to be ALSO styleOwnScale
PercZoneLow1 = Param("PercZoneLow1",0.3,0.000001,1,0.05) ;
PercZoneHigh1 = Param("PercZoneHigh1 ",1,0.000001,1,0.05) ;
Plot( C, "C in zone", colorBlack, styleCandle | styleOwnScale,
MinZone(C,PercZoneLow1,PercZoneHigh1), MaxZone(C,PercZoneLow1,PercZoneHigh1));
PercZoneLow2 = Param("PercZoneLow2",0.00001,0.000001,1,0.05) ;
PercZoneHigh2 = PercZoneLow1 ;
// in case of time consuming array avoid to calculate 3 times
arraylongtobecalculated = al = ATR(14);
Plot( al, "ATR(14) in zone", colorRed, styleLine | styleOwnScale,
MinZone(al,PercZoneLow2,PercZoneHigh2), MaxZone(al,PercZoneLow2,PercZoneHigh2));
