How to ask StockFetcher to locate a particular bar in the past?
For example, how can I tell it to find the last bar that makes the new 20-day high?
Or how to find the last bar that crossed the 50-day moving average?
Any idea?

I want to express this logic:
In the last 10 days, a new 40 day high was reached, and the day that made the high had the highest volume in 5 days.
I wrote the following but stockfetcher cannot understand
set{var1,days(high reached a new 40 day high,10)}
set{var2,volume var1 day ago}
var2 reached a 5 day high

Thanks for the "day since" post, but the problem is not about this (I used this in the example). The problem is that after I found out the "day since" number, I am unable to put it into the "days ago" parameter.
If I want to use "days ago", I must input a direct number, like "3 days ago" but I cannot set a variable (say "Var1") and use "Var1 days ago". StockFetcher simply does not recognise it.
