I would recommend that you calculate the end time explicitly, rather 
than use 'now'. Eg :

Now=`date +%s`
End=$(( $Now - $Now % $Step ))

Then you can use $End in your script, probably by using date to 
format it for you.

Why do this ?

Well for documentation reasons, it gives the end date of the actual 
data that is graphed - eg :15:10 instead of 15:11:27.

And of course, it avoids problems where rrd tool decides that a lower 
resolution RRA covers your requested timespan better than the hi res 
RRA you expected it to use.
