Yes, but it was not clever.
I like to take a chance of some educational proper EL programming, even to
you.
Mostly to you these times, should I write...

This is perfectly useless in this case.
This line can be seen as a reset of the iRawPrice variable at each bar.
You have no valid reason to do this here because the next line, this variable
is replaced by the ROC based calculation, that does not make use of a previous
value of itself.

Omega EL is not so quirky, and not at a point where you feel enforced to reset
a variable to zero without any reason. This protects nothing, excepted
yourself agiast your fears, because you are not confident into the software,
but that's another story.

Bad education and typical reaction of a "Mr I know All".
The solution that I proposed can be plotted too. You never mention in your
post that is should not.

Not documented in your post.
My point was to focus on good EL programming.

It's not a valid reason to shout.
A good practice is to recognize when you are wrong.
Only this can produce the respect that you may deserve.

Yes...it works.

Woah...
Do you really think what you write ?
I do not ask for proofs...
