 I change time frames frequently.  If I want to plot the 50 day SMA on an hourly chart, do I have to plot a 6-1/2 x 50 = 325 bar moving average?  Or can't I fix it some way so that as I Ctrl-5 or Ctrl-2 the moving average stays the same?

 You could add the attached Price History with Bar Interval Indicator to the Chart. Add a 50-Period Simple Moving Average as a Child Indicator and then delete the Price History with Bar Interval Indicator. It would leave behind a Moving Average with an adjustable Bar Interval. You could then Drag and Drop the Indicator onto Price History and select Overlay with Price History to get it into the same Pane and Scale.

You should be able to Open an attached Indicator directly into a running copy of StockFinder 5 (and save it from within StockFinder 5 if desired). You could also Save it to the \My Documents\StockFinder5\(Your Username)\My Indicators\ folder and then load it like you would any other Indicator (or Copy and Paste it there from wherever it Saves if you can't specify the destination directory when Saving).
