I am not accustomed to drawing so many manual objects for data display because of performance issues on other platforms so it struck me as quite odd.

Many thanks for the clarification.

This is a link to someone else's work:

/algos/indicators/show/60

This person is using cover and cover2 output plots to blank out a histogram from 0, he/she is taking advantage of the paint sequence.

I am not saying it needs to be done in this way, in fact I don't like it, but in MT4 a pair of buffers assigned both as histogram would cause the offset to shift.

Another thing I have discovered is the use of DrawLine in the MT4 to cAlgo converter, is it the intention of Spotware for us to draw so many lines on the chart to simulate candles for example?
