Thanks Bill. I can get the bar count in the commentary window using the range 
markers

x=EndValue(BarIndex()) - BeginValue(BarIndex ());
writeval(x);

I did not assign any studyID (and assigning a studyID did not make any 
difference). Is there any way to get the beginning and ending BarIndex for a 
trendline( that has a studyID of  say "AA") without using the range marker bars 
?

Best regards,
-VJ

There are a number of ways to go but one is to  draw the trendline with the 
trendline charting tool, assign a study id to it,  and then use the range 
marker bars to define the beginning and end of the  line.  At that point, the 
number of bars is  simply:
  
 endvalue(barindex()) -  beginvalue(barindex())

   Subject: [amibroker] bar counter
   

Hello,

I am trying to implement a bar counter - this    will indicate the number of 
bars between two ends of a trendline. The    trendline in Amibroker(when double 
clicked) shows the x and y position of its    ends, but I am not sure how to 
access this from a script. Any help in this    would be greatly appreciated.

To give a general idea of how this is    used, I have a system which relies on 
static bar counts from a starting point.    The attached chart for Thursday 
(for the SP500) shows how turns are projected    using 100 bar increments (on a 
1min chart) starting from a low (blue arrow).    The chart was generated with 
Wave59. I want to do the same using    Amibroker.

Thank you in advance,
-VJ
