Hi Eric,
I've had a look at the code and it seems ok. You're using the
runningAccumulator and pastFixings as required. The fixing dates
would work either way (just the remaining ones or all of them) since
the engine discards past fixing dates during calculation. If the
option defined an inspector for the fixing dates, we could have a
philosophical argument until the cows come home about what we should
want it to show. But there's no such inspector right now, so we can
save some time :)
Regards,
Luigi
