How do I set for entry on a breakout using strategy wizard?

[stevep3]

Hi

Using the wizard, for entry on a breakout, I have tried unsuccessfully to set for an entry on say, highest of the last 20 bars. I am getting error messages, which are beyond my comprehension. I have tried Close(0) ==Highest Bar(0,20), and
Lowest bar(0,10)==True. Both generate error messages.

What am I doing wrong?

Hi Steve,

Given here in Australia, I know it might be a few hours before one of the Ninja team are back online so this might get you going in the meantime.

I use the following when looking for the high of the current bar is greater than the high of the previous 20 bars:

High[0] > MAX(High, 20)[1])

There is a good reference sample that you can look at for breakout trading also.

I hope this gets you going.

Hi Kylie

Thanks for that. I seem to be running on that one.

Do you know how to add RSI(9) <70 under the same condition set? I'm new to this without the wizard and the error message just keeps on coming up.

I'm also stuck on exit long when open> entry price.
