When using Mode 3 in Zig-Zag Study with Setting for High-Low Input Data set to "Last", I notice that if the swing high or low has two or more consecutive bars with the exact same close, the Zig-Zag line peaks/valleys at the close of the first of the bars. The apex should shift to the close of the last bar before changing direction. This is very important if a trader is using, in addition, Zig-Zag Accumulated Volume. It renders the Swing Volume innacurate as it adds the volume of the last bar(s) which follow the first of the swing high bars (again, assuming they all have the same close) to the next/following Swing instead of accumulating it as part of the existing(soon to be completed/reversed swing.
