Modifying the formula from Makridis Spyros as below should be even more
useful.
up:=BarsSince(RSI(9)>70);
up:=If(up=0,1,up);
LLV(RSI(9),LastValue(PREV+up-PREV));
The use of LastValue() allows a variable to be used as a constant that is
uniform for the entire chart, and combining it with +PREV-PREV allows the
current value to be used as a constant. Don't ask me why this works, or why
it only works with some applications because I don't know. This appears to
be one of the applications where it does work so you're in luck.
BarsSince() can return "zero" so it's necessary to adjust it because the LLV
for "zero" periods will not return a useful value.
Thanks to Corey Saxe for this interesting solution.
