Place an order based on previous bars high

[Boonja]

Hi there,

I know this seems simple enough but I'm having problems with my strategy. I am trying to auto enter a buy limit order 4 ticks/1 point above the previous bars high as soon as the previous bar closes (using 5 minute). The problem I'm having is it's entering the order right at the high rather than the 4 ticks above. Can someone tell me where I have to configure the 4 ticks correctly?

Thank you kindly...

I'm not sure I follow exactly when you need to place an order where - at the previous bar's high + / - an offset?

You would need to place a stop limit / limit order at this value then -
