Your n is the BarsSince(L<LastValue(L)) 
because :
n bars ago the condition
L<LastValue(L)
was true.[yellow triangle]
[The low for that day is from the red line.]
Since then, the last Low is the LLV(L,n).
[The last Low is from the green line.]
All the intermediate lows, from the yellow triangle till the end are 
higher than the last Low.

x=Cum(1);Lx=LastValue(x);
Cond=L<LastValue(L);
n=BarsSince(Cond);
Plot(C,"",colorBlack,64);
PlotShapes(shapeDownTriangle*(x==Lx-LastValue(n)),colorYellow);
Plot(LastValue(L),"",colorGreen,1);
Plot(LastValue(Ref(L,-n)),"  ",colorRed,1);
Title="The last Low is the LLV(L,"+WriteVal(n,1.0)+")";
