OK, So, analysing your new question, the time interval is still important? 
Or no longer?
So writting your query in english : "I want all users that don't change 
"value" and their value is equal to x ?"

Or will you need to find all the users that don't change value with just one 
query? And the query would return something like

id_user | value
2 | -1
4| 3

?
Please advice me on this.

I am just trying to avoid misunderstanding your requirements and ending up 
with a query that doesn't really do what you need.

Best,
Oliver
