Highest value bars ago < highest value bars ago

[Sakkers]

Hi,

I'm trying to code the following:

Highest High value 10 bars ago is less than highest high value 30 bars ago

(MAX(High, 10)[1] < MAX(High, 30)[11])

The above code sounds logical to me but it doesn't work?

Hello,

Thank you for the question.

Can I ask are you getting an error if you open Tools -> Output window when you run this code?

I have tested the following and it works with no error,

if (CurrentBar < 11) return;
if (MAX(High, 10)[1] < MAX(High, 30)[11])
{
     Print("Do Something");
}

I did add the current bar check to prevent index errors, If you do not have this check in your script currently you would need to add it. essentially if you have not checked if the current bar is past 11, on bar 0 it will be looking for bar -11 which will never exist.

I look forward to being of further assistance.
