Dear tomgilb and other spreadsheet pros,

I am using the attached spreadsheet study to define swingpoints. In the CLR version this was working fine. But unfortunately in the non-CLR version I often times get an error. I'm pretty sure this has to do with the formulars for SH and SL using lines 1 and 2 of the spreadsheet.

I define swing points like this:
Swing High = at least 2 lower highs to the left and at least 2 lower highs to the right
Swing Low = at least 2 higher lows to the left and at least 2 higher lows to the right
If there are equal highs/lows they are treated as merged together and only the last equal high/low are marked as swing high/low (this makes the formular so long, but hopefully you have a better idea; please see the attached screenshots).

Do you have a better idea, to easier and/or more efficiently calculate the swing points as defined above, that this is working in the non-CLR version too?

Thanks in advance for your help,
tobi

In the non-CLR version, you could add this to your N3 and O3 formulas:
=IF(OR(ROW()=3,ROW()=4),0,ExistingFormula)

This will also eliminate redrawing of the Point on High/Point on Low on the current and previous bar.
