The RPeriod is one of the indicator’s very important input parameter that defines length, and is forcibly equal to an even number.

If this variable gets an odd number, it will be decreased to an even number.

  • Multiplier – defines the step distance of the moving averages

  • Horizontal shift of the indicator in bars – defines the horizontal distance between the moving averages in bars
