Hi SC,

In Trading Spreadsheet Study I would like to reference the high/low of the trade entry bar for stops placement. Having gone through this http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/doc_SpreadsheetFunctions.html I believe the only function capable of that sort of search is the GETCORRESPONDINGMATCH function. Yet it only works with numbers, not with text nor dates/time.

Would you know of an alternative way to reference the high/low of the trade entry bar? If not, would you consider modifying the GETCORRESPONDINGMATCH function for it to accept dates/time as input?

Many thanks

A Date-Time is a number:

There are various functions to create the number.

For reference of anyone else looking into this, GETCORRESPONDINGMATCH combined with value(cell#) as input worked.
