Graham,
 
I have heard the term Countback Line but I dont 
know what it does. If you want to try describing how it works, I could maybe 
take a stab at it.

  backwards in loop
  SteveInititally it was for the 3 day count back line, 
  but I am endeavouring toexpand on this for finding short term peaks and 
  troughs and some otherthoughts I have for some systems once I get it 
  working. When I plot it the lines start at the first occurrence of the 
  particular low(or high) price. Here is the whole picture of the formula I 
  am using at themoment as I try to get it working the way I am 
  wanting.// INDICATOR //Count Back Line //by Graham Kavanagh 22 
  Sep 2003//Plot(C, "Close", colorBlack, 
  styleBar+styleNoLabel);period = 3;Bar = 
  SelectedValue(BarIndex());LastBar = LastValue(BarIndex());start = 
  Lastbar-bar;LowerLow[0] = SelectedValue(L);for ( j=1; 
  j<=period; j++ ){for ( i=1 ; i < Lastbar ; i++ ){  
  if ( L[i] < LowerLow[j-1] )  {   LowerLow[j] = 
  L[i];  }}}Lowerline = 
  SelectedValue(LowerLow[period]);BarL   = ValueWhen( 
  L==Lowerline, BarIndex(), 1 );CBLow  = IIf( BarIndex()>=BarL, 
  Lowerline, Null );Plot(CBLow, EncodeColor(colorRed)+ "3 day CB Low", 
  colorRed, styleDots);//Plot(SelectedValue(L), EncodeColor(colorRed)+ 
  "Bar Low", colorRed,styleLine);HigherHigh[0] = 
  SelectedValue(H);for ( j=1; j<=period; j++ ){for ( i=1; i 
  <Bar ; i++ ){  if ( H[i] > HigherHigh[j-1] )  
  {   HigherHigh[j] = H[i];  
  }}}Higherline = 
  SelectedValue(HigherHigh[period]);BarH   = ValueWhen( 
  H==Higherline, BarIndex(), 1 );CBHigh  = IIf( BarIndex()>=BarH, 
  Higherline, Null );//Plot(SelectedValue(H), 
  EncodeColor(colorGreen)+ "Bar high", 
  colorGreen,styleLine);Plot(CBHigh, EncodeColor(colorGreen)+ "3 day CB 
  High", colorGreen,styleDots);Title = Name() + " " + Date() + " / " 
  + BarCount + " / " + bar + " / " +Lastbar + " ? "+ L[0] + " ?

  From looking at your code, itappears that the only elements of LowerLow 
  that can ever get changed are 1,2 and 3.Steve----- Original

  September 22, 2003 8:58 PMSubject: [amibroker] Stepping backwards in 
  loopI have this formula in a loop but it steps through the values 
  from thebeginning of the data rather than from the end. I have tried 
  reversing the line " for ( i=1; i < bar ; i++ ) " to  " for 
  (i=bar; i > 0 ; i-- ) " but stills seems to check the bars in the 
  forwarddirection. All I want to do is go back from the selected (or 
  last) bar. Help appreciated. period = 3;Bar = 
  SelectedValue(BarIndex());LastBar = LastValue(BarIndex());start = 
  Lastbar-bar;LowerLow[0] = SelectedValue(L);for ( j=1; 
  j<=period; j++ ){for ( i=1; i < bar ; i++ ){  if ( 
  L[i] < LowerLow[j-1] )  {   LowerLow[j] = 
  L[i];  }}}Cheers,Graham<A
