In spreadsheet programming, is it possible to get the high or low of any indicator(instead of just the candle sticks/heiken-ashi etc)? If so, how do you get the high/low data? |

You can use the High/Low For Time Period study, or the HightestHigh/LowestLow Over N Bars study, with the 'Based On' set to an indicator, and reference their output to spreadsheet columns. It's also possible to do this with formulas. |

I slept on it and actually woke up w/ an idea, but I'll definitely try this first as it seems way more direct. Another question if you don't mind: is it possible to "freeze" an indicator's value at the time an order is placed, and have it stay frozen indefinitely because of the placed order? |

You can do this by creating a persistent variable.Here are some examples: Spreadsheet Example Formulas and Usage: Persistent and Incrementing Variables |
