What TJ posted was simply an EXAMPLE of how to use the FFT that he
built into the product ...
What you are asking for is easily doable in AFL by downshifting the
data array by the difference between LastValue(BarIndex()) and
either SelectedValue(BarIndex()) or EndValue(BarIndex()) and then
basing the AFL calculations on SelectedValue or EndValue ( Range
Marker ) respectively rather than LastValue ...

been nice to be able to select the last value in de FFT. Also for
other analysis like checking the stability of the first harmonic, it
would have been nice to have a last value selection in FFT not being
the last value of the financial timeserie. Now I first must cut the
timeserie in several parts in order to do that. Or am I missing
something ?
