Bars Back

[dvercher]

I am not sure of what number 1 means in this line of the code:

if Close [0] > Open [0]
&& (CrossAbove(Close,EMA(High,Period),1)

Here it says: If the close of the current bar is high than the open of the current bar and there is a cross above of the Close of an EMA ¿in the previous bar?

Thanks

Hi dvercher,

That's a lookback, look back periods start at 1 so work a little differently than bar indexing which starts at 0.

1 is the bar you're currently evaluating. It essentially means: Within the last x bars, evaluate for crossover.
