Bar referencing and pointing

  Hi Nicolas,

  I have the highest high during intraday being drawn on current bar. If for example the highest high bar occurred x bars ago and that particular bar had another value drawn on it by a private indicator.

  How do I make reference to that highest high bar (x bars ago) and have the code also show on current bar the value of the indicator on that x bar?

  You need to code the detection of the intraday HIGHEST high and save that high AND the other X value you are interested in (not tested):

  DEFPARAM DrawOnLastBarOnly = True ONCE HighestHIGH = high ONCE Xdatum = CALL "MyIndicator" IF IntraDayBarIndex = 0 THEN //0=a new day just started HighestHIGH = high Xdatum = CALL "MyIndicator" ENDIF IF High > HighestHIGH THEN HighestHIGH = high Xdatum = CALL "MyIndicator" ENDIF DrawText("Highest=#HighestHIGH# X=#Xdatum#",BarIndex,HighestHIGH + range) RETURN

  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13

  DEFPARAM DrawOnLastBarOnly = True ONCE HighestHIGH = high ONCE Xdatum      = CALL "MyIndicator" IF IntraDayBarIndex = 0 THEN    //0=a new day just started    HighestHIGH = high    Xdatum      = CALL "MyIndicator" ENDIF IF High > HighestHIGH THEN    HighestHIGH = high    Xdatum      = CALL "MyIndicator" ENDIF DrawText("Highest=#HighestHIGH#   X=#Xdatum#",BarIndex,HighestHIGH + range) RETURN
