Somewhat related to the Max Range question, is there a pcf that draws Donchian channels? It would be the max price of the last 20 bars/candles and the min price of the last 20. The lines would be horizontal until a new high or low price happened. Very simple. No moving averages. I'm sure this has been done years ago. I would like to use it as a custom indicator.

Thanks, Craig. What I have so far is two very simple custom indicators. One is simply MAXH20 and the other is MINL20, with the "plot using price scale" box checked. It seems to do what I want, but I get error messages saying Formula error, no calc.
