Hello maaz1598,


I notice that your code needed an open parenthesis a the beginning of your condition and a closing parenthesis at the end of your condition. I have included the corrected code below.

it writes (invalid expression "]") x2 and (syntax error "] expected")

even after i adjusted code (shawnB)

if (((Open[0] + High[0] + Low[0] + Close[0]) / 4) > ((Open[1] + Close[1]) / 2 ));
