Ninja Script Issue

[laocoon]

Hello

I've developed a very simple strategy that plots

-a dot below a green candle (n) if the previous candle (n-1) was red
-a dot above a red candle (n) if the previous candle (n-1) was green

The dot is automatically removed if the next candle (n+1) doesn't make a tick higher than the high of (n) (for longs) or a tick lower than the low of (n) (for shorts).

The code is attached below and it works on many candles that meet the criteria but not on all. I'm at a loss on why it is behaving like that.

Any suggestions on how to fix this issue are very welcome.

Thanks

laocoon, it might be due to your 'if then else if' structuring used - I would suggest to simplify it by commenting out the 'removal' parts and then first checking if your draw dot conditions are triggering as you would expect.

Bertrand,

Thanks for your reply. It seems to be working if I comment out the "removal part" as you suggested. Can I ask you how to structure the "if then else" loop to be able to keep the "removal part" ?

The thing that got me wondering was the fact that the original code works on many occasions but not on all.

Thanks a lot.

I would suggest you don't start the Short condition in the lower part of the code with an 'else if', just use regular 'if' here.

perfect, thanks a lot Bertrand.
