Re: [amibroker] Coding Question

["Edward Pottasch" <empottasch@xxxxxxxxx>]

if xx is the array that contains true/false values and the last value is 
true then the previous true value is

LastValue(Ref(BarsSince(xx),-1))  + 1

bars back.

Hi All,

Hopefully simple coding question that seems to be foxing me briefly...

I have an array who's value is true on the current bar. I want to find
how many bars back the prior occurence of 'true' was. The array is
only every true or false...

I thought this would work,

x = HighestSinceBars(True,y,2);

Where y is the array in question....

But it doesn't seem to be working.

Any ideas...?

TIA
