Hi all

Need your expertise help here.

I'm trying to define peaks.

my definition of a peak is when the next 3 consecutive bars are either equal or lower than the first bar. if true, the first bar will be the new peak else the previous peak remains. how is the previous peak (oldpeak) 'remembered'?

newpeak:= HHV(H,3);
b1:= HHV(H,2);
b2:= HHV(H,1);
b3:= H;
If((b3 <= newpeak AND b2 <=newpeak AND b1<=newpeak),newpeak,oldpeak);

Many thanks!

use this formula -> PeakBars(1,MACD(),.5) and view the daily data either in the Explorer or in Excel paying attention to zero. You can also see the reverse using TroughBars(1,MACD(),.5) *-1. Plot in the same window and set style to hist with Peak colors in Green and Trough in Red. Also plot a standard MACD in another window and view the peaks in action. Charley

here is an example of PeakBars displayed in Excel:

Have a look at the ValueWhen() function or even the PREV function (slower but still can be useful at times)
