Why not provide a tool for counting the number of bars between two bars?

 

Why not provide a tool for counting the number between two bars?

It just need to draw a horizontal line from one bar to another bar,and show the number above the line.

I think it is easy for MataQuate engineer,and it is useful for cycles.

 

I guess it wasn't in the specification.

Such a tool can be coded as a Custom Indicator.

Or, draw a line, select it, and resize it, and there is a little count of bars and pips right beside your Mouse pointer.

Note the value, put it into the Description property of the line.

Make sure "Show Object Properties" is checked on the chart properties page to see the value.

 
use + cursor to draw a line which give you its dx dy ....
