Buy on the high on a candle

11-04-2011, 02:22 AM

For example when a Bullish Belt candle appears I want ninjatrader to go long on the next candle if it breaks the high. The most impotent thing it needs to be in sequence so first Bullish Belt candle then it needs to break the high However, I don't want ninjatrader to go long on a high 5th candle, I needs to be right after the Bullish Belt Candle.

wallsteetking, you would need to custom code this strategy using our NinjaScript language, a great start is the 'point and click interface' Strategy Wizard :

Proper sequencing of conditions could be achieved via user variables / boolean flags :
