Is bad to use Max HighestBar[]

[dsin51]

Is too bad to use the tow function to get the index of max value.....
I was crazy to deal with this problem ..
for examples:
calculating the highest value on the 20 consequtive bars in the range from the 4th to the 23rd index inclusive on the current chart
IN MT4 is very simple just like this
val=High[iHighest(NULL,0,MODE_HIGH,20,4)];

But ninja can't do this ,
Max() only get value ,can't index
HighestBar() only from CurrentBar ,can't from 4th Bar ago...

Welcome to our forums dsin51, perhaps I'm not following you here but the MAX() method would return a dataseries that could apply indexing on as needed : http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/h...aximum_max.htm

For example : double value = MAX(High, 20)[4];

Maybe my bad English made you Misunderstanding
I know this method of the Max , and this can get the value of max
but can't get the index of max value ,how many bars far away from currentbar found the max value.
it is very import using : I want not only the max value ,but the bars near by the max value what has happen .

Thanks much for the clarification, you're correct then you would need to work with HighestBar, but it would only work from the CurrentBar backwards over the entered lookback period per default.

It looks like you may have to write a for loop to do it for you.
