//  Supersedes other P&F versions in this and yahoo files.

//  P&F chart for V4.40 and above. Based on close prices.
//
//  Problem resolved with boxes not being created at right prices due to the 9
//  decimal place inaccuracies for numbers with decimals. This was causing a
//  problem creating the rising and falling boxes with the Ceil and Floor
//  functions.
//
//  Place in indicator builder. Chart is compacted to the right end of the
//  chart space ending on last date bar.
//
//  Box sizes and reverse can be changed near the beginning of the afl code
//  within the "Boxsize = IIF" statements.

too many errors (8)

2. Carlin

Looks like keyword Reverse has been used as a variable. Replace it with Reverse_ and the P&F charts will work.

3. sbrahmam

Thanks Carlin. It worked like charm

I have some problem in customize this code to 1 point reverse and get to this (missing column when price move up/move down 1 point). Can you help me to re-arrange this 1 point reverse chart? Please.
Thank you for the amazing code
