Hi,
Is there anyone out there that can tell me how to write in condition builder, without C++ code, how to execute a trade at the high or low of the previous PNF high or low.
I wrote a Set 1 condition that says that if the current ask (0) of the present bar of a pnf chart is equal or higher than the high of one bar back then sell. I have written it, but it never executes at the anywhere near the high of the previous bar, usually at the price of the high less the amount of the reversal. Is there anyway around this? In order to get close to the high should it be one tick less than the high of the previous bar, since the high of the previous bar may be the high minus the reversal amount (ie 3 ticks) since the market would have reversed before creating the next down bar. If that is the case is there a way to write, "enter the high of the last bar plus the "reversal" amount to match the high of the previous bar? I have tried writing the current ask price being the high of the last bar plus the reversal amount but it doesn't seem to make a difference. If it is possible can anyone explain using the Condition Builder if-then screen rather than code?
Thanks in advance.
Seems like it should be simple, but I am beginning to think this may be impossible,
