Marco, I don't have MetaStock with me, but perhaps you can modify the 
indicator below.

===================
BarsSince Nth event
===================
---8<--------------------------

{ User inputs }
NthEvent:=Input("BarsSince Nth event  (1=last, 2=2nd last, 
etc)",1,1000,2);
plot:=Input("plot:  [1]BarsSince Nth event,  [2]Event signals",1,2,1);

{ Event peak example }
signal:=PeakBars(1,L,.01)=0;;

{ Count events backwards }
count:=LastValue(Cum(signal))-Cum(signal)+1;

{ BarsSince Nth event }
BarsSinceNth:=
 HighestSinceBars(NthEvent+1,signal,count)-1;

{ Plot in own window }
If(plot=1,BarsSinceNth,signal)

---8<--------------------------
