updateOfflineChart()

Call this function on every tick with the current value of this index. If you would like to create multiple timeframes then simply call it once per timeframe (with a different interval parameter for every phase).

Symbol ...

Call this function on every tick with the current value of this index. If you want to create a number of timeframes then simply call it once per timeframe (using a different interval parameter for each phase).

Symbol is the name for the offline chart. It may be this is really a limitation of this format.
Interval accepts the interval in minutes (just use metatrader's PERIOD_* constants for this)
digits will be the number of notes and volume could be set to 0 in the event that you dont have volume.

If you enable allow dll for your code then it will also upgrade the offline chart window every tick through the PostMessage() trick.

For instance, I wish to make JPY index by a different formulation. I dont want it to be exhibited in subwindow, however at the main chart window. Is it feasible?
Thanks.
