Thanks,
I do need to use that min function I believe, but still getting some strange
behaviors with larger look ahead periods, but this time on older triggers.
For one thing, shouldn't the LookHigh formula be inverted,
LookHigh= hhv( ref( h, period), period);
Since I want to find the high or low in a period beyond the current bar,
shouldn't I start by reference the end bar of the look ahead period, then do
an HHV or LLV from that bar?
I'll continue to looking into this...thanks much for your help.

You can always limit the look ahead period to what bars are available
Period = min( 10, barcount-1-barindex() );
LookHigh = ref( hhv( h, period ), period ) ;
I think this is correct maths
