Array to make life Easier!!?

[ginx10k]

Is there a way to make an Array[] that holds these values:

// Condition set 2, 
            if (beginLongs == buyStep
                && Variable1 >= Variable3
                && Close[4] >= Variable3 //The close of 4 bars ago must be above the Lowest EMA
                && Close[3] >= Variable3 //The close of 3 bars ago must be above the Lowest EMA
                && Close[2] >= Variable3 //The close of 2 bars ago must be above the Lowest EMA
                && Close[1] >= Variable3 //The close of 1 bars ago must be above the Lowest EMA
                && CrossAbove(High, Variable2, 1))

I'm trying to Compare the Close from what ever barsAgo and I want it to continue counting till it reaches Close[1]. In the sample code I only used 4 bars ago, but Is there a way to make some kind of For statement that can place a variable in an Array. In other words, I don't want to type Close[10] && Close[9] etc...I want to just place it on one array or something so it's done easier.

Sample Codes Please.

Thank You!!

Hi ginx10k,

Try using MIN(Close, 4)[0] >= Variable3.

You could also loop over the Close..

for (var i=0; i<4; i++)
if (Close[i] < Variable3)
// set variable or execute code

You could also make your own list (a type of array).

Quick modification question.

So I did the code

if(MIN(Close, 10)[1] >= MIN(EMA3, 10)[1]) //The MIN displays the Close of the Last 5 bars starting with [1] bar ago.
				{ upTrend = true;		downTrend = false;	}

I'm trying to get the just below the Close by like 1 tick. so I tried

if(MIN(Close  + 1 * TickSize, 10)[1] >= MIN(EMA3, 10)[1])

but keep getting Error.

Can someone tell me where do i Place the +1*TickSize statement to make this read 1 tick above or Below the Close.

Thank You!!

Hi ginx10k,

You will not be able to add a tick to an entire data series...

Instead, check that the value on the right of the equation is a tick lower.

if(MIN(Close, 10)[0] >= MIN(EMA3, 10)[0]-1*TickSize)

Also, MIN(Close, 10)[1] will not include the current bar in the check for the lowest bar. Are you using this intentionally to not include the current bar with the check for the lowest bar in the close?
