That input is an integer type. Changing the input parameter into a floating-point type is easy, but ... you have to consider how it is used in the rest of the code.

As it stands, that parameter is used in a way that will only work correctly if it is an integer type and not a floating-point. In the code it is used by the iMA() function that expects an integer, and it is also used in other calculations to calculate a bar shift.

So, it makes no sense in changing it to a floating-point type if the rest of the code is incapable or incompatible to that data type. You would need to refactor all of the existing code too, so as to be able to cater for floating-point type.
