need help to build simple strategy

[maria123]

CurrentDayOHL on a chart gives you, in real time, the Open for the day, the High for the day,and the Low. I need to know how to build a strategy that will BUY when the CURRENT PRICE is >= to the High FOR THE DAY. NinjaScript/ConditionBuilder/Indicators/CurrentOHL does not actually give you the High FOR THE DAY. In fact it even ask you for # of "BARS AGO", indicating that it is referencing a certain candle, NOT the DAY. Finally, I can't seem to find a way to get "current market price" as opposed to "High,Low,close,open". Need: 1)HIGH FOR THE DAY, and 2)CURRENT MARKET PRICE.

maria123,

In your condition builder, on the left select Close for the current price. On the right select Indicators>CurrentDayOHL. Then choose the High plot and that is the high value of the day. You are now comparing the current price versus high of the day.

Josh, I appreciate your reply. I'm still having a heck-of-a-time with this......can you get this to actually work on charted results? Because, when I look at the charted results....within the strategy analyzer, it doesn't "go-long" or "short" when it should.

maria123,

Please be more specific as to what you have in the Condition Builder, what it is currently doing, and what you desired. Thank you. A screenshot of the Condition Builder would be easiest to see.
