Figured it out somehow
Running the code via Scan after adding
AddToComposite(Indicator, "~Indicator", "X");
and then plotting the resulting symbol with Foreign instead of
plotting Indicator directly I can see that the correct adjustment have
been made.
I guess that for the sake of efficiency the bars used when graphing
are less than when scanning (there I have full control of the period
used), I tried
SetBarsRequired(-100000, 100000);
in the graph also but it didn't seem to work
Still it would have been nice to obtain this with VALUEWHEN to look at
the past instead of looping, if somebody feels like giving
suggestions... I'm beginning to think it can't be made w/o loop
