Hi, There are some instances where I'd like to mark up bars that are CONFIRMED by future bars. Easiest example is a pullback where L[-2]<L[-1] and L[-1]>=L so basically the 2 bar ago low is lowest low the next two bars couldn't take that low out. I'd like to put an arrow under the L[-2] bar! Can this be done and if not can you add just like how you have offset a Past Bar Offset which would normally be 0 for current bar 1 one back 2 in this case two back? |

You would have to use the Spreadsheet Study to do this. In Column K enter the formula you want to return a 1 or 0 (true/false), the in Column L you would use a formula like the following to shift the result back (in this case it is shifting by 1 row), you would then use that result to draw the arrow on the previous bar: =IF(ROW() = 3, 0, IF(K2, 1, 0)) For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing |

One last question I've modified the spreadsheet but it never saves. I've saved the chart and workspace but spreadsheet stays the same, can't figure this out.
