Just for information, since you were wanting to find the Down bar, you would need to test the Highs of the two bars. But as we think about this, it is not enough to guarantee that the bar is actually a Down bar. Since an Up bar could also meet this criteria.

The only thing we can think to do would be to use the Spreadsheet Study and check whether the first bar of the Session is up or down (test if Close is higher or lower than the Open). This will give you initial direction which you can then use with the Bar Numbering study to determine if any particular bar is Up or Down.

The tricky part is that you will have to have create a column to know if the bar numbering for the Down bar is going to be on the Even or Odd numbers for that session.

This is getting beyond what we can put together for you, so you will have to work it out yourself - or perhaps with help from the community.
