Hi,
Not sure if I understand the problem correctly. You could try
\starttext
\startMPpage[offset=3pt]
ahlength := 20;
linejoin := mitered;
drawarrow origin--(40,0) withpen pencircle scaled 5;
\stopMPpage
\startMPpage[offset=1cm]
ahlength := 20;
linejoin := mitered;
drawarrow origin--(40,0) withpen pencircle scaled 5;
\stopMPpage
\stoptext
Compile with context.
