Here's one that calculates calendar days...

Inputs: Lookback(15);

Value1 = DateToJulian(LastCalcDate);
Value2 = Value1 - Lookback;

If Date = JulianToDate(Value2) then
Plot1(High,"Lookback");
Plot2(Low,"Lookback");

Of course it won't plot if the day is a weekend or holiday. 
Perhaps, someone will provide a modification that uses
barnumbers (trading days).
