wrong high/low being returned

[waynecd]

Hi,

In the attached image you will note that the high/low is not correctly returned by the following script regardless of use of BARSTATE_NEWBAR, or high(0)/high(-1) or low(0)/low(-1).

I need the study to return the price bar high of the bar when stochs %K is below the 20 and is crossing up through %D and the price bar low when %K is above the 80 and %K is crossing down under the %D.

Any help is greatly appreciated.
