Convert Seconds to Trading Bars

This simple indicator converts a number of seconds (Intraday) to the equivalent number of bars given the analyzed data.

For example, let us say you want to calculate the return of a stock in the last hour.
If you are working on a one-minute chart, you can type:

a = perf(close, 60);

However, if you switch to a 10-minute chart, the above formula will calculate the return of the stock in the last 10 hours.

To fix this, you can use this function to convert one hour to the equivalent number of bars.

a = cvbars(60*60); // 3600 seconds = 1 hour
b = perf(close, a);

Using one-minute data, "cvbars" will return 60. If you are working with 10-minute data, the same function will return 6.
