Hey Chris,
Thanks for naming the line after me. ;-)
I tried out your code, with a parameter of 5 and for some reason the Ozzy Lines are not plotting, even when the Close is clearly lower than the Low of 5 bars ago. This is what I pasted directly into a new AFL indicator:
SetChartOptions(0, chartShowArrows|chartShowDates);
_N(Title = StrFormat("{{INTERVAL}} {{DATE}} \n{{VALUES}}",
O, H, L, C, V, SelectedValue(ROC(C, 1)) ));
Plot(C, "Close", colorBlack, styleThick|styleDots);
Plot(H, "High", colorBlue, styleLine);
Plot(L, "Low", colorRed, styleLine);
_SECTION_BEGIN("Ozzy's line");
Lastbarr = LastValue(Cum(1) );//counts the number of bars.
startr = Param("bars back", 5, 10, 100, 1);;//
endr = 1;// last bar is the barcount -1 because linearray works off barindex
// these points defining the line must be NUMBERS, not arrays.
x0 = Lastbarr - startr;
y0 = L [ x0] ;//sets the numerical value of the low at x0.
x1 = Lastbarr - endr;
y1 = C[x1];
Line = LineArray(x0,y0,x1,y1, 0,1);
//Plot(Line,"",colorBlue,1);
if(y1 < y0)
{
Plot(Line,"", colorBlue,1);
}
Plot( IIf(C < Ref(L,-5), Line,Null),"",colorRed,1);
//Plot(C,"",colorBlack, 64);
_SECTION_END();
