bar counter for tradestation

[gdtrader]

Can anyone give me some code with barcounters I am really terrible with them. A few examples would be nice. If 52 week high then bar counter=1 then start searching for previous low. What ever anything I am just making example. Would really appreciate it thanks.

Hi gdtrader:

Don’t know if this will help:

It basically scans for the highest price and the lowest price between the first bar on the chart and the last bar on the chart and records at which bar each took place (absolute) and how far ago they took place from the current last bar on the chart (relative).

Variable:
	HighestHigh(0),
	LowestLow(0),
	highestBarlocation(0),
	LowestBarlocation(0);
	
If BarNumber = 1 Then
	Begin
		HighestHigh = -99999;
		LowestLow = 99999;
	End;

if high > highesthigh then   
	Begin       
		HighestHigh = high;
		HighestBarlocation = currentbar;	
	End
Else
	If low < lowestlow then             
		Begin
			LowestLow = low;               
			LowestBarlocation = currentbar;
		End;
 
If LastBarOnChart = True Then
	Begin
		print(" ");
		print("Current bar = ",currentbar:5:0);
		print("The highest high was ",HighestHigh:4:4, 
			  " took place at bar# ", HighestBarlocation:5:0, 
			  " which was ", currentbar - HighestBarlocation:5:0, 
			  " bars ago.");
		print("Lowest low was ", LowestLow:4:4, 
			  " took place at bar# ", LowestBarlocation:5:0, 
			  " which was ", currentbar - LowestBarlocation:5:0, 
			  " bars ago.");
	End;
