Dimitris,

thanks for this.

I tried to use the high/low functions from AFL langunage with negative
values and picked hhv as an example.

But using hhv with negative values (hhv(high,-1) etc.) gives weird results.

Do you have an idea what THAT means?

I may need to reference future quotes for pattern recognition, NOT for
trading!

Thanks again

Markus

Markus,
valuewhen and exrem may refer to the future in many ways.
a. valuewhen(EXPRESSION, ARRAY, n = 1)
>From the description we read:
"Note: this function allows also 0 and negative values for n - this
enables referencing future."
The function may also refer to the future when the EXPRESSION does.
Example valuewhen(Peakbars(H,5)==0,macd(),1)
b. exrem( ARRAY1, ARRAY2 ) may also refer to the future because of
ARRAY1 or ARRAY2.
Example:
In exrem(zig(H,5)>C,zig(L,5)<C), the excessive signals will be
removed, but both zig conditions refer to the future.
In complicated expressions it is easy to loose the control and, above
all, you should avoid get any trading results as realistic [some
times they are ...attractive, but...]
