Thanks. Yes, that's what I have for a 20 period Donchian (which I have no problems with), but a '4 week' Donchian is a little bit different. i.e. Today being Thurs, the Channel high would be the highest high of the last 4 weeks (compared to the highest high of the last 20 periods). Just a slight difference. =)
