    Hello Everyone,

    I would like to ask for your help as for the following issue: is there any code that would let me calculating a number of bars since supertrend indicator was crossed by the price? The beginning of my code is:

    If close crosses over supertrend then “rise”

    Now the issue is that based on prorealtime handbook, i cannot use barindex to calculate the number of bars starting from the point when price crossed over supertrend.

    Thank you in advance for your help.

    Kind regards,

    Kemel

    Hi, create a variable where to save the moment of crossing. That moment is BarIndex

    like:

    If close crosses over mySupertrend then
CrossingPosition = barindex
Endif

DistanceToCrossingPosition=Barindex-CrossingPosition
