Is there a way to calculate the highest & lowest point of an indicator in a set range

[I_Need_Money]

Greetings

I am not a programmer (just know enough to be dangerous) and need some help programming the highest & lowest point of an indicator in the last 30 60 bars.

I can do it with to the price range with no problem

Example:

double L_Range=(Low[iLowest(NULL,TI,1,30,1)]);

double H_Range=(High[iHighest(NULL,TI,2,30,1)]);

But… how would I do this to an indicator

Example:

If Stochastic has gone above 80 or below 20 in the past 30 bars.

Thank you in advance.

One way . . . read all the values into an array, sort the array, read the first and last entries then you have the highest and lowest.

Raptor's solution will work but the computational "expense" would be offensive to programmers.

This is a very common type of solution ...

double max = -1.0;
double min = 10000000.0;

for( int n=1; n<30; n++ ){
   double val = iStochastic(NULL,0,5,3,3,MODE_SMA,0,MODE_MAIN,n);
   
   if( max < val )
       max = val;
       
   if( min > val )
       min = val;
}

I have just put any old values into the Stochastic indicator as it is an example.

Thank you will give this a try.
