how to add a !=

[CaptainAmericaXX]

Hello,
I'm modifying an entry signal to not enter when High[0] is also the high of the day. I though I could add High[0] != CurrentDayOHL().CurrentHigh[0], but that doesn't change anything when its the high of the day. Here is my code:
if (Position.MarketPosition == MarketPosition.Flat
&& SwingHighCross > -1 && (CrossAbove(TrendStrengthA(VC.NinjaScript.Utility. MovingAverageType.VWMA, 200, 20, 10).TrendStrength, 60, 4)
|| CrossAbove(TrendStrengthA(VC.NinjaScript.Utility.M ovingAverageType.VWMA, 200, 20, 10).TrendStrength, -60, 4)
&& High[0] != CurrentDayOHL().CurrentHigh[0]))
Any ideas as to why the Enter() would still fire when it's the day high?

Hi CaptainAmericaXX,

Your condition says buy when they are not equal to each other. You may want instead < to check that it is lower.

if (High[0] < CurrentDayOHL().CurrentHigh[0])

Ah, yes of course. != means not equal to. Silly mistake. How would one say
if(High[0] == CurrentDayOHL().CurrentHigh[0])
no trade, when my other conditions may be true at that time.?

I feel < is the most appropriate here. It checks that the current bar's high is lower than the current session high, which seems to be what you want to express.

Otherwise, print both values and determine what type of comparison you want to make.

I'm sorry I didn't explain my idea very well. There is a specific set up I'm trying catch that happens better when the market is trading inside the session high and low. When price is making new highs or lows this set up doesn't work. If a new session high is made in the current bar and my other conditions call for a buy I don't want to take that trade. I did however follow your advice and put in < instead of == and there was no change. I certainly appreciate any other suggestions you can give.

You are definitely going to need to use some print statements on all those values to the console to debug that statement.

If you're checking this historically it may not work as you expect. CurrenDayOHL() is available for the current session only.

If you need to check an intraday high compared to a daily high historically, then you can work in multiseries framework to a add a daily series.
