Wow Dave,and wow again, this is a greeeeeaaaat solution, never mind replying late, this is so incredible. after a while i thought it was not possible, great mind you got over there, thumbs up seven times, but sorry man you need to expalin the relevance of using the offset function there and the formula for getting the angle required. i was just browsing through what you did and cant see how the whole stuff you done applies to the chart. or i guess the angle required is connected to the price, could you kindly explain to me the logic behind this.
