OK first problem I encounter when trying to write this in amibroker,
is that this doesn't work...:
HHA=HHV(H,10); //HHV of 10 days ago (for example 33)
HHB=HHV(H,10,-10); //HHV of 10 to 20 ago (for example 32)
HHC=HHV(H,10,-20); //HHV of 20 to 30 days ago (for example 34)
Any idea how to get the highest high value from, 10 days ago (not
counting today), 10 to 20 days ago and 20-30 days ago?
Is it possible in an easy fashion?
Thanks!
