All variables are series variables in EasyLanguage, except in Simple
functions. All these series variables retain their value from one
bar to the next.

No, it gets initialized to zero on the first bar. After that it's
whatever you define it.
>I do not want a series as only the value is important to me in a
>subsequent bar, not the bar where I calculated this.
If your variable resides in a strategy, series function, or any kind of
indicator, you don't have a choice, the variable will be a series. You
needn't do anything. The variable will retain its value. Or you could
reference something[2] to get the value 2 bars ago.
