Unfortunately, since bars are processed from first to last, there is
no way to know that a crossover is the last one until you get to the
end.

You can plot a horizontal line that extend to the right on each
crossover and get reset by the next crossover:

Vars: MA1(0), MA2(0), CrossVal(0);

MA1 = AVERAGE(C,8);
MA2 = AVERAGE(C,4);

IF MA1 CROSSES OVER MA2 THEN
   CrossVal = MA1;

Plot1(CrossVal, "1"):
