hello,

i am using two spreadsheet formulas to calculate the number of bars since a slope change. i'm trying to use the same formulas for an SG whose alert is =ID4.SG2<>0 but i cannot get it to work. my formulas look like this:


ID10 SPREADSHEET FORMULA STUDY
=ID4.SG2<>0

ID11 SPREADSHEET FORMULA STUDY (to determine how many bars it has been since the last time ID10 (ID4.SG2) was not equal to zero)
IF(ID10.SG1<>0,ID11.SG1[-1]+1,0)

i've tried this and i cannot get it to print the number of bars it has been since ID10 was true. is there a way to do this?

kindest regards,

I tried this and it works for me, using this setup:

Color Bar Based On Alert Condition study (ID1) with this formula on the Alerts tab:
=O>C

Spreadsheet Formula study (ID2) with this formula in the Formula field:
=IF(ID1.SG1<>0,ID2.SG1[-1]+1,0)
Chart Region set to 1
Draw Style set to Value on Low
