buyzone tells you where the price is in relation to the zones.

daily open is the DAILY OPEN price.

Candle tells you how red/green the candle is. (Why is yours a % ?)

Dly candle tells you how red/green the daily candle is.

Start is the ending time of the first candle (the candle you started with).

Good question! I changed the format for both the CANDLE and START columns. Does it look right now? I formatted CANDLE as number to two decimal places. This is for the 20 cows, by the way.

Thanks!

Yes, looks right to me.

I would make the BuyZone column a text column and align left so you can sort the messages.
