RE: [amibroker] Looking ahead

This returns 0 if the look ahead number exceeds then number of bars that
actually exists.

For instance, if the trigger date is 11/20 and I use:
	LookHigh = ref( hhv( h, 10 ), 10 ) * ( barindex() < barcount-11 );

LookHigh returns 0 for the 11/20 bar.  In this case, I'd prefer if it simply
find the low of the existing bars following 11/20.

If I just simply use:
	LookHigh = ref( hhv( h, 10 ), 10 )

It behaves a bit better, but I noticed that at some point, as I continue to
increase the look ahead number (i.e. make it 100), the LookHigh value
changes.  This makes sense in most case, but in the above example, assuming
11/20 as the trigger date, it should be a constant value for anything beyond
a look ahead number of 6, since there are only trading 6 bars following
11/20.  This does not happen however, it almost looks like it is looking
back in this case.  

A bit confused on this, but trying to figure out why this is...

sorry made a mess of that, -10 instead of 10 for the ref

LookHigh = ref( hhv( h, 10 ), 10 );

LookHigh = ref( hhv( h, 10 ), 10 ) * ( barindex() < barcount-11 );
