[amibroker] Correlation

["mytakeismine" <mytakeismine@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi I asked this back a few weeks ago... I am not sure I understand so 
if anyone could elaborate.

In the user guide it states under Correlation:
SYNTAX  correlation( ARRAY1, ARRAY2, periods )  

EXAMPLE // Correlation between Close price AND AND Close price 5 days 
back 
Correlation( Close, Ref( Close, -5 ), 5 );  

In the example it states 5 days back, so is the -5 as in 
( Close, -5 ) the 5 days back. 
Or is the ", 5 );" as in "periods"  in the syntax the 5 which causes 
the 5 days back? 

Too many 5's

Thanks for your help and explanation!
