Absolute bar #?

OK, no luck with the scaling question.  I realized it's not possible anyway,
since the indicator gets plotted once, but the user can scroll & zoom
at well.  Ohwell.

So let's try this one:  is there some way of absolutely identifying
a particular bar #?  I want to be able to remember a particular bar
and then refer back to it -- for example, only look for SwingHi/Lo
in the bars since the last swing was found.

But all the bar numbering functions I can find seem to be relative
to the MaxBarsBack setting, so they move as you march forward in time.

At first I thought maybe I could store the Julian date of the bar,
but of course that doesn't work because of weekends &etc.

Isn't there some fixed/absolute way of referring to a bar??

Thanks,
Gary
