Which is the Best Software for Point&Figure Chart

In P&F chart, For each price level, we should choose a suitable box size for it. Now I use metastock to read P&F chart but metastock only permit me choose only one type of box size for all price level. For example: if I choose box size is 2, all price level in P&F use box size 2, no matter the price level is 12000 or 12.

I am looking for a software which I can choose box size for each price level (excellent if It can set standard box size for each price level), Please kind tell existing the software like this or not. If it is existing please kindly tell me its name or share it with me.

Many many thanks for you help!

Re: Which is the Best Software for Point&Figure Chart

Are you looking at very long range charts? I wonder why you would want different box sizes for each level?

I wonder what happens if you select a logarithmic scale with a fixed box size? Maybe that will help?

Didn't you get an answer on the other thread? Bulls-eye broker seems to be the package of choice for 'serious' P&Fers from what I have heard.
