🎲 Summary of our today's discussion

How historical operator works for variables defined inside an conditional block
How historical operator works for variables defined in a loop.

🎯 Example Program Used

Pine Script®

// Time series for variables within a condition
varip showLogInLoop = true
if(bar_index%3 == 0)
    specialBarIndex = bar_index
    if(bar_index > last_bar_index-3 and showLogInLoop)
        log.info('Current and Previous special bar index are : {0} and {1}', specialBarIndex, specialBarIndex[1])
        showLogInLoop := false

// Time series of variables within a loop
arrayOfX = array.new<int>()
arrayOfLastX = array.new<int>()
for i = 1 to 5
    x = i*10
    arrayOfX.push(x)
    arrayOfLastX.push(x[1])

if(barstate.islastconfirmedhistory)
    log.info('Array of X : {0}', arrayOfX)
    log.info('Array of last X : {0}', arrayOfLastX)
