  Hi All, Pls can somone help with how to get the highest highs and lowest lows of the previous years? i have this code but not sure why trying to check if the current weeks bar close is higher than the last year’s highest high doesn’t work all the time?. I’m new to ProRealTime and ProRealCode… 🙂 .

  TIMEFRAME(WEEKLY) IF YEAR = YEAR[1] THEN Wk52High = Highest[52](High[1]) con7 = Close >= Wk52High ENDIF

  1 2 3 4 5

  TIMEFRAME(WEEKLY) IF YEAR = YEAR[1] THEN Wk52High = Highest[52](High[1]) con7 = Close >= Wk52High ENDIF

  The code you made is not compatible with ProBuilder, TIMEFRAME keyword is only available for ProScreener.

  This is the code of an indicator that can give you the last year high:

  If Year<>Year[1] then yearlyHigh = Highest[BarIndex - lastYearBarIndex](High)[1] lastYearBarIndex = BarIndex endif return yearlyHigh

  1 2 3 4 5 6

  If Year<>Year[1] then yearlyHigh = Highest[BarIndex - lastYearBarIndex](High)[1] lastYearBarIndex = BarIndex endif   return yearlyHigh

  Hi Nicolas, I wondered how could I adjust this code to only see the prior year levels rather than all the years H,L,C,  and also how might I add text to the lines eg “PY High {price}” etc..

  Many thanks

  This code should only plot the last year High on the chart. Make sure you have sufficient displayed units for the code to correctly compute.

  myline=undefined If Year<>Year[1] then yearlyHigh = Highest[BarIndex - lastYearBarIndex](High)[1] lastYearBarIndex = BarIndex yearTest = year endif if yeartest = CurrentYear then myline = yearlyHIgh endif return myline

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

  myline=undefined   If Year<>Year[1]  then yearlyHigh = Highest[BarIndex - lastYearBarIndex](High)[1] lastYearBarIndex = BarIndex yearTest = year endif   if yeartest = CurrentYear then myline  = yearlyHIgh endif   return myline

  Sorry, I forgot the text, here is the modified code:

  defparam drawonlastbaronly=true myline=undefined If Year<>Year[1] then yearlyHigh = Highest[BarIndex - lastYearBarIndex](High)[1] lastYearBarIndex = BarIndex yearTest = year endif if yeartest = CurrentYear then myline = yearlyHIgh drawtext(" PY High {#myline#}",barindex,myline,dialog,bold,14) endif return myline

  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15

  defparam drawonlastbaronly=true myline=undefined   If Year<>Year[1]  then yearlyHigh = Highest[BarIndex - lastYearBarIndex](High)[1] lastYearBarIndex = BarIndex yearTest = year endif   if yeartest = CurrentYear then myline  = yearlyHIgh drawtext("                                  PY High {#myline#}",barindex,myline,dialog,bold,14) endif   return myline
