Hi,
ref(month(),-1) doesn't return the previous month value. It returns the previous bars value of month.
So, assume these are your dates
Date Month()
31/Dec 12
1/Jan 1
2/Jan 1
3/Jan 1
4/Jan 1
5/Jan 1
So, if your current bar is 4/Jan, then month and ref(month(),-1) will be the same. Only on the first day of the month will the values be different.

Hi Ara,
I have tried this with the same results that you report....not sure
why it does not work....the help says that it returns an array...but
I think it means to say that it is an array holding the same number
in every position. You could do something like this as a possible
work-around:
my_month = Month();
Plot(mm,"this month",colorWhite);
Plot(mm-1,"last month",colorGreen);
best regards,
Tom

result for Month(), but incorrect for Ref(Month(),-1).
