This variant of the ZigZag indicator is recalculated at each tick only
at the  bars that  were not calculated yet and, therefore, it does not
overload CPU at all  which is different from the  standard  indicator. 
Besides,  in this indicator  drawing  of a line is executed exactly in
the  ZIGZAG  style  and,  therefore,  the  indicator   correctly   and
simultaneously  displays  two  of its extreme points (High and Low) at
the same bar!

//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
Depth is a minimum number of bars without the second maximum (minimum)
which is Deviation pips less (more) than the previous one, i.e. ZigZag
always can diverge but it may converge (or dislocate entirely) for the
value  more  than  Deviation  only  after  the  Depth  number of bars.
Backstep is a minimum number of bars between maximums (minimums).
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
Zigzag  indicator  is  a  number of trendlines that unite considerable
tops  and  bottoms  on  a  price  chart.  The parameter concerning the
minimum  prices  changes determines the per cent value where the price
must  move  to  generate a new "Zig"  or  "Zag"  line.  This indicator
filters  the  changes  on an analyzed chart that are less than the set
value. Therefore, Zigzag reflects only considerable amedments.  Zigzag
is used mainly for the simplified visualization of charts, as it shows
only the most important changes and reverses.  Also, it can be used to
reveal the  Elliott Waves and different chart figures. It is necessary
to remember that the last indicator  segment  can change  depending on
the changes of the analyzed data. It is one of the few indicators that
can change their previous value, in case of an asset price change.
Such  an  ability to correct its values according to the further price
changings  makes Zigzag an excellent tool for the already formed price
changes.  Therefore, there is no point in creating a trading system
based  on Zigzag as it is most suitable for the analysis of historical
data not forecasting.
