    Hello Everyone,

    I am able to return the lowest low of the previous 10 bars with the code “lowest[10](low)”. What I would like to do is count the number of bars since that low. Anybody an idea?

    I did not test it, but it should do:

    LowestPrice = lowest[10](low)     //save the lowest price returned
LowBar      = 0
for i = 1 to 10                   //scan the previous 10 bars
if low[i] = LowestPrice then
LowBar = i                        //when the match is found save te number of the bar
endif
next
//from now on you know LowBar IS the bar within the 10 previous ones with the lowst price
//            (unless more than one shares the same lowest price!!!)

PriceRange = range[LowBar]       //you can, just as an example, access the RANGE of the bar with the lowest low....

    Let me know if you are having problems with that piece of code.
