Hello,
 
Yes you are correct (as long as yours "somefunction" does 
not reference future bars).

  Say you want to make use of 
  indicators from multiple timeframes. Can someonetell me for certain if 
  code built like this looks into the future at 
  all:TimeFrameSet(inWeekly);MyIndicator = 
  SomeFunction(Close);TimeFrameRestore();MyIndicator = 
  TimeFrameExpand(MyIndicator, inWeekly, expandLast);buy = buy and 
  MyIndicator > threshold;sell = sell and MyIndicator < 
  threshold;My understanding from the docs is that TimeFrameExpand can 
  look into thefuture, but only if you use expandFirst. By using expandLast, 
  the weeklyprice isn't available until Friday, at the end of the week, and 
  looking intothe future is avoided.Do I have that right? The code 
  above doesn't look into the future, even bypart of a day, 
  ever?Thanks,DaveSend BUG REPORTS to
