Create an indicator for your first condition then use BarsSince(your condition=1) to
count the # bars.

wanted to have the close difference to be min of 10 points. Once the close different is 10 points, count the bar that make this 10 points. How is this to be coded because have to create many c-ref(c,-1) c-ref(c,-2) c-ref(c,-3) c-ref(c,-4) c-ref(c,-5) to account for the difference

hi wabbit,
roc calculate the change in price for a specific period
10 roc calculates the change in price for 10 bars
the period is fix but the price change is dynamic
but now want to determine the period and not the price change
want to count the bars with 10 points price change
the roc calculate the price change once there are 10 bars but now is want to count number of bars once the price change is 10 points

So, if I understand this right, you want to count the number of bars elapsed since the price was x-points higher or lower than the price of the current bar?
If so, you cannot do this in MSFL, you need to use an ExtFml(), or if it might be possible to implement in MSFL I wouldn't bother wasting all that time and effort thinking about how to do it when it is very simple to do in more powerful languages.

Firstly, Wabbit is completly right, MSFL is not made for doing such indicators. If you want to try it still to do it with some tricks in MSFL this code will help you further: Code:
c1:=C*1.1;
c2:=C*0.9;
c1;c2;
b1:=BarsSince(Cross(LastValue(c1+PREV-PREV),C) OR Cross(C,LastValue(c1+PREV-PREV)));
b2:=BarsSince(Cross(LastValue(c2+PREV-PREV),C) OR Cross(C,LastValue(c2+PREV-PREV)));
b1;
b2;
