Bill,
Thanks - I finally figured out how to extend a line into the future
without changing the existing line values. I provided examples below
of the problem I was having along with the one that plots correctly.
Your formula shifts the line for existing data to a totally different
position. Your feedback motivated me to take one more shot at
figuring it out. One question I do have about the following code is
this - when I remove "numbars" from the code the lines no longer
plot. I don't understand why the numbars statement is necessary. Any
ideas as to why this is?
Regards,
David
numbars = LastValue(Cum(Status("barvisible")));
pct = Param("Pivot %", 0.50, 0.10, 20, 0.001);

shift= Param("Line Shift",20,0,50,1);;
