Kevin,

In general, if you want the intraday advance-decline line, you need to start 
with a) the intraday advance line, and b) the intraday decline line.

As mentioned, GetRTDataForeign() returns a number (not a line), and does so in 
realtime (not historically).

Probably your data provider offers symbols for ADV and DECL which will have the 
historical intraday quotes.

I recommend you find those symbols, make sure you can plot them, and then work 
forward from there.  Assuming those symbols are available, this approach will 
work, guaranteed.

I get the impression that you are perhaps trying to capture realtime data and 
save it into a ticker array yourself, one "capture" per chart bar.  I've never 
implemented this approach, and I don't even know if it can be done.  Possibly 
one of the highly realtime-oriented members can comment on this.
