Hello nozjer786,

That won't be possible to do exactly the same display with PowerLanguage, but that is possible to show the required values on a chart. Such display can be programmed using MultiCharts .NET.

As an alternative, you can stack histogram bars and play with `SetPlotWidth` to get "tower like" bars:

Code: Select all

if (BarStatus(1) = 2) then begin

Plot1(UpTicks * 3); // Start with the largest value for plot 1
Plot2(UpTicks * 2);
Plot3(UpTicks);

SetPlotColor(1, White);
SetPlotColor(2, Blue);
SetPlotColor(3, Green);

SetPlotWidth(1, 2);
SetPlotWidth(2, 4);
SetPlotWidth(3, 6);

end;
