So first step is to REFORMULATE your idea to actually have mathematical sense. Let suppose that N represents the index of last bar and you are trying to plot values for N+1, N+2, N+3. Mathematically VALUE[ N ] = LastValue( Close ); // that is last value of close - our starting point now you want this: VALUE[ N + 1 ] = 1.1 * VALUE[ N ] VALUE[ N + 2 ] = 1.05 * VALUE[ N + 1 ]; VALUE[ N + 3 ] = 1.025 * VALUE[ N + 2 ]; The above can be generalized to: VALUE[ N + futurebar ] = ( 1 + 0.2 / 2 ^ futurebar ) * VALUE[ N + futurebar - 1 ]; So next value is previous value multiplied by ( 1 + 0.2 / 2 ^ futurebar ) factor. Now (the key moment) - you need to DROP thinking that given array element is hardwired to time. It is not. Array elements can be used regardless of time. This allows us to use LAST N bars of actual existing arrays as a placeholder for "future". The code below implements entire idea: Extend = Param("How many bars to extend", 1, 1, 50, 1 ); Value = LastValue( Close ); Result = Null; i = 0; while( i <= Extend ) { Result[ BarCount - Extend - 1 + i ] = Value; i++; Value = ( 1 + 0.2 / ( 2 ^ i ) ) * Value; } Plot( Close, "Close", colorBlack, styleCandle ); Plot( Result, "Projected prices", colorBlue, styleLine, Null, Null, Extend ); Best regard, Tomasz Janeczko amibroker.com ----- Original Message ----- From: "Robert" <disqpl...@yahoo. com> To: <amibro...@yahoogrou ps.com> Sent: Tuesday, January 06, 2009 1:23 PM Subject: [amibroker] Re: Graphing beyond the data > ok I have been looking at all the replies to the questions I asked > but it is still not quite what I was looking to do with the program > > so let's try this > > I would like to calculate the say the closing cost for the next 5 > days beyond the last day of data.
