Minimum Over Period (MinPrd)

This function is available on the Add Study window and in the Formula Toolbox.

MinPrd returns low value of an expression over the look back number of bars. Like MaxPrd the unique value of this functionality is the ability to identify an event as the initialing point of the look back rather than a finite number.

For example: MinPrd(Low(@),BarSince MACDA(@) XBelow 0)

Example: MinPrd(@,6)
