Hi, say you want to change the window length of your indicator to the number of bars since its last turning point, you would do that like this:      for(int i=0; i<limit; i++)   {       ExtMapBuffer0[i]=iMA(0,0,10,0,0,0,i);   }   for(i=limit-1; i>=0; i--)   {      double curr = ExtMapBuffer0[i];...
