Possible to force history file on chart?
To use nonstsndard timeframes appropriate chart should be opened offline.
After file is opened You can get its data from EA attached to standard chart, for instance:
iClose("ABCDEF", 10, 0); // 10-minutes chart
ArrayCopyRates(my_array,"ABCDEF", 360); // 360-minutes (6-hours) chart
iMA("ABCDEF",360,13,0,MODE_SMA,PRICE_CLOSE,1);
and so on

Is this possible:
-Drop EA on Chart.
-EA forces chart to attach to certain offline history file instead of its current symbol/period
Even if this would have to be done with Windows API calls, that is OK, I just need to know if it can be done.
Why?
I'm generating a .hst file with OHLC data that is the OHLC of the AccountEquity(), and I want the EA to forcibly attach to that .hst file when it is used.
Thanks very much!
