E-FUTURE-READ
A strategy looks ahead (`future = true`) on a value that is not shifted: it would trade on prices the bar did not have. A script that makes alerts gets it too when the unshifted value reaches an alert (`alert()` / `alertcondition`, directly or as the condition they run under); a look-ahead that only draws is the warning `W-FUTURE-READ`.
