Hi People,

I am wanting the highest high for the last 10 days and I have been using this line.. Now I find it is not giving me the highest high. It gives me yesterdays close for some reason.

Can someone tell me why please.

Inserted Code
double HighTrendVal= High[iHighest(NULL,PERIOD_D1,MODE_HIGH,10,1)];
Print ("High Trend Value is",(HighTrendVal));

thanks

You posted your answer just before I had the chance to.

Your iHighest() was returning correct bar# in D1 TF, but High[] refers to current Symbol/TF only, hence code would only work correctly if attached to D1 chart. iHigh() allows you to specify any Symbol/TF.
