Bars ago of highest price

[siroki]

Hi, thanks for reading..

I have the following code which gives me the Highest High of the last 60 days before today: MAX(High, 60)[1]

This gives me the price.

I would also like to know how many days ago this price was.

I know it must be simple, but I'm a bit lost.

Thanks!

Hello siroki,

For this you can use HighestBar().

Or create your own method to loop through the bars.

I need to exclude the current bar, hence I use Max(High, 60)[1] so lookback one. I don't think this is possible with HighestBar?

Hello siroki,

You are correct, this does not use a barsAgo offset. You would need to use a custom method like the HighestBarInRangeExample_NT8 I have provided you a link to.

May I confirm you have reviewed the information I posted in post #2? Are you finding the HighestBarInRangeExample_NT8 is inadequate for an example?

My apologies for not reviewing the code example in post #2. It is indeed adequate for my requirements. Thank you!
