I am attempting to write a very simple code, I printed the real code manual from blocks and read it to make sure i was doing this right but apparently I am not.
To make it simple, write and indicator to plot the max high over the last 10 bars.
Here is the code i used, and its from the manual
plot=price.maxhigh(10)......it plots the high 10 days ago, not the max high over the last ten day.

what am I doing wrong?

plot = price.maxhigh(10) is plotting the max high over the last 10 days for me.

gunnels,
I can assure you that the following RealCode Indicator Plots the Maximum High over the most recent 10-Periods (not the High of 10-Periods Ago):

Plot = Price.MaxHigh(10)

You might want to make sure you are Plotting it on the same scale as Price. Right-click on the RealCode Indicator and select Scaling | Scale With | Price History.

gunnels,
Is it in its own Pane or is it Plotted in the Price Pane?
