Sorry Barry... my terminology is confusing...
Lets say I have an array that has only true or false values in it...
Lets say the last 10 value of this array are as follows, from x
intervals ago until now...
0,1,0,0,1,0,0,1,0,0
x.................Now
Now, obviously, BarsSince(array) will return a value of 2... i.e. the
last true value was 2 intervals ago.
However, the value I'm trying to get is the last value of true in the
above x elements of the array... so I want an expression that returns
8 for the above array (i.e. 8 intervals back is the last value of
true). Any ideas...?
Hopefully that's clearer now.
