The time period is set with the Time Period Unit and the Time Period Unit Length Inputs.
For each bar in the chart, the High and Low for the specified time period is determined up to that bar and not beyond Date = 4 March Bar = last bar (index 0) specified time period = 3 days Expected value for period low = 9692 (low of day on 2 March) Actual displayed value for period low = 9706 (low of day yesterday, 3 March) |

This has been done on a new chartbook on a new chart with no other studies. Would be interesting to see if this can be reproduced. Looking at the source for the study, it might be an issue with IsInNewPeriod? |
