Hello,I routinely have the need for ranking the output of my real code indicator for every item in my active watch list. The process I use is cumbersome and error prone. Wondering if there is a better way.First, I create MyRealCodeIndicator as my custom indicator.Next, I make a copy of this (e.g., MyRealCodeIndicator.2).Next, I edit the block diagram of MyRealCodeIndicator.2, insert one of the two "Rank vs. List" block, rewire it and then use it.The problem is that since I am making copy of my indicator, if I make changes to the original I have to repeat the process of copy-paste-insert-rank.vs.list block - rewire.Is there a way to create a shell of the rank vs. list block such that I can point it to any real code indicator that I may be writing?thanks in advance.

I cannot think of a way to create a shell to make the process any easier (which does not necessarily mean it is not possible).

I'm actually a bit surprised that your technique works (or more accurately that it survives a restart of StockFinder) as the Block Diagram of a RealCode Indicator is normally rebuilt from scratch every time it is compiled (which normally happens every time it is loaded).

I should have mentioned before that it does not survive reloads... I use it as long as I can keep my session open. Yes, it is painful.
