I like the feature of positive offset i wanted that a long time ago.
it great for developing new system.

what would be nice is fake next BAR.
I would like to be able to have it chart fake data for the next bar.
this way i can see what effect it would have on bolenger etc.
if you can predict next day high or low with any accuracy you 
can predict a better entry for the day.
all it needs is open close high,low volume and allow to put math function 
in it.

Well, ref positive offsets would certainly help in back testing.
I use back testing to know if a system would have peformed well in
history.

I have several system that require you to sell lets say at the open 5
day AFTER you bought, no matter what is the current quotation.
If I could have a ref(close, open, high, low) +5 from the bought day,
it would certainly help backtesting those systems.
