Open the Formula editor and the code should go something like this (it will
vary depending on the name of your imported data):
fc = Foreign("~NAMEOFMYD ATA","C") ;
Plot(fc,"My data",colorBlue, styleLine, 1,1,0);
That's it - save it to your custom or indicator folder. Hit F5 to update the
directory (or quit and restart AB), double click on the name in the indicator
list.
As for why you're getting an error - not sure - can't remember if you can
import negative values.
