Is there a version of the Zigzag indicator ( or can I easily tweak the code ) such that when there are for example several bars with the same consecutive extreme value ( such as micro triple-top or micro triple-bottoms), the zigzag will plot not to the 1st instance but to the most recent instance of that value?

Thanks very much... problem solved. I knew of this indicator but didn't realise there is an option for Gann type swings.
