DateBar + 5000; is saying 5000 bars after the StartDate.
Assuming daily bars, around 260 trading days per year this is around 19
years after the StartDate.
Try adding the SetBarsRequired line to the top of your code.
********
SetBarsRequired(10000,10000);
StartDate = ParamDate ( "Start Date" , Date () );
DateBar = ValueWhen ( DateNum () == StartDate, BarIndex () );
P = Param("Bars after Start Date", 50, 50, 5000, 1);
ArrowBar = DateBar + P ;
Plot(C,"", 16,64);
Plot( IIf(DateNum() == STARTDATE,Close,Null), "", colorBlue,2);
PlotShapes ( IIf ( ArrowBar == BarIndex (), shapeUpArrow, shapeNone),
colorGreen, 0 , L , - 20 );
*******
