To answer your question, you can use the Lookback method to refer to prices X number of bars ago.  Since there are about ~20 bars in a month, you can lookback (20 * 6 = 120) bars to compare prices from 6 months ago.   You may also want to use the Variable block to specify the number of bars to lookback.
