lowest low value bars ago and referencing period as variable problem

I am writing an indicator that uses llvbars(data array, periods) and it starts with this series of code(constants are used later in complete code)
Aup:=40;
Adown:=60;
uRSI:=70;
dRSI:=30;
up:=BarsSince(RSI(9)>70);
dn:=BarsSince(RSI(9)<30);
LLVbars(RSI(9),up);
rest of code follows last item, which is the problem function.
I need to calculate the lowest low value of RSI(9) since "up" number of days. Metastock will not accept up or fml("up") for periods in the basic formula llvbars(data array, periods) because the error message reads: This variable or expression must contain only constant data.
Can I get around this problem of having a variable number of up or dn days and then calculatting llvbars? Or, am I writing formula wrong?
thanks for any help.

You can use the Forum.dll (free from the files section) to use variable time periods in the llvbars() function.
Hope this helps.
