I would like to import an ASCII file of trade data to MC and plot the trades as part of my daily log. Does anyone use MC this way or know of some sample code or instructions on how to do so?

You would have to write an indicator to do it. I've used EL to write data to a text file before, but not sure about reading it. If it can't be done in EL natively you'd have to write C# code and make it a DLL to get it done, probably way too much work.
