Re: EL Help?_Take II

[Ian Cunningham <CunCom@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I may not have been clear in what I am trying to do with this
EL excercise.
At C1 I want to return the Oscillator value at its highest point
after it has turned down. (Condition1). Then, return the value
for the previous time this has occured (C2)  so that I can compare
one to the other; eg If C1 < C2 then .....................

Maybe I'm mistaken to use the MRO function for this purpose??

No for C1
C1 and C2 store the number of bars since the occurence.
No occurence foud returns  -1 from the MRO function.

So, you need to check

if C1<>-1 then begin
    value1=H[C1];
end;

same apply for C2

if C2<>-1 then begin
    value2=H[C2];
end;

Howevere,there are smarter solutions by storing the high value when the
crossover occurs

Condition1= PR<PR[1] and PR[1]>=PR[2]; {Osc turns down}
if condition1 then begin
    value2=value1; { previous high #1 become #2} 
    value1=h         {contains last ocurence high #1}
end;

Et voilą.
