Hello again.
This time I have a simple question.
When using "Get Historical Candles", what it means by Shift parameter?
For example: Start point is the vertical orange line. When i put "1"in shift parameter and 5 in candles amount I get candles from 1 to 5. And what about shift 2? When I have 5 candles, I get candles from 2 to 6 or I need to check "next box" so I get candles from 6 to 10 ?

Hi,

Correct, hence shift 3 --> candles from 3 to 7 backward
