Hello rnorman,

I get 1.0 using dialy.  HOwever, 1st time I ever used that indioactor.

over last 100 days,len = 25, r started out at 1.0, drops to 0, then
climbs to 1.00 again.    looks a bit suspect.  Mess w Max # Bars to
reference.  Looks to me like it takes it a while  to get correct, with
initial len bars being incorrect.  ??
