My wish is to enter when some other conditions along with following occur:
&& CrossAbove(Close, PriorDayOHLC().PriorOpen, 4)

I get a entry even thou the close did not cross above the PriorOpen within the last 4 bars
In fact its no where near...

The indicator is suppose to be Prior Open that is around mid night. I am trading the 6e
So lets say the line the indicator draws is at 1.287 at 12 mid night
I would assume during the day if the close crosses above that line it would be an entry.

Any suggestions?

bbucha,

Could you post more of your code here or some screen shots of the behavior you are witnessing here?

OHLC Indicator

If I simply do the following the output window prints a value of 0 for all

Print(Time[0] + " PriorOpen "+ PriorDayOHLC().PriorOpen) ;
Print(Time[0] + " PriorClose "+ PriorDayOHLC().PriorClose) ;
Print(Time[0] + " PriorHigh "+ PriorDayOHLC().PriorHigh) ;
Print(Time[0] + " PriorLow "+ PriorDayOHLC().PriorLow) ;

bbucha,

Print(Time[0] + " PriorOpen "+ PriorDayOHLC().PriorOpen) ;

PriorOpen is a dataseries so you would need to reference the index to get the actual value.

PriorDayOHLC().PriorOpen[0]

The crossabove function takes data series as inputs, however if you want to print the actual current value you need to use indices.

Thanks I found the indicator goes awhile before printing I had tried with and without indices.
The problem ended up being I was coding for Prior day and wanted current day OHL
So all is good
