Find time at index 1

[Morgan Morden]

I have indexs in my code and I want to know the amount bars/ time from signal point and index.

here is my code: 

 if (a[1]>=a[MaxIndex]) = OP_BUY;

I  I want to know amount of bars between signal point and MaxIndex. How do I find time at MaxIndex?

Thankyou!

1. We have no idea what a[] is.

   If you have two indexes, then the bars between them is i2-i1+1 (inclusive.) Between bar 10 and bar 8 is three bars, 8, 9, and 10..
3. The duration (in seconds) from the start of the first bar to the start of the second bar is Time[i2] - Time[i1]

Sorry I was a little unclear. 

a[1] is current price/time [i]. I want to know amount of bars from MaxIndex to current price[i] where Maxindex is surpassed
