Hello alex@n, and thank you for your question. to describe this situation you will want to use && instead of ==, so that your statement becomes

if (Close[1] > Open[1] [B]&& [/B]Open[0] > Close[0])

Please let us know if there are any other ways we can help.

Hello JessicaP ,
thank you for your answer,
if (Close[1] > Open[1] && Open[0] > Close[0]) , No, it does not fit.

Can you clarify what is meant by error in this case? The picture I am seeing draws a blue diamond over every red bar following a green bar.

Thank you. Let's go ahead and put what we want into plain language. Please correct me if I'm wrong. Our goal is to detect the situation where

• The previous bar is bullish and the current bar is bearish
• The candlestick shapes of the previous bar and current bar are the same

If this is the case, the condition I gave you before handles the first bullet only. In plain language, when we say that the previous bullish bar has the same candlestick shape as the current bearish bar, we mean that all of the following are true :

• The previous bullish bar's close is equal to the current bearish bar's open
• The previous bullish bar's open is equal to the current bearish bar's close
• The previous bullish bar's high is equal to the current bearish bar's high
• The previous bullish bar's high is equal to the current bearish bar's high

So we can put everything together like this

if (
    // The previous bar is bullish and the current bar is bearish
    (Close[1] > Open[1] && Open[0] > Close[0])


    // The candlestick shapes of the previous bar and current bar are the same
    && (Close[1] == Open[0])
    && (Close[0] == Open[1])
    && (High[1] == High[0])
    && (Low[1] == Low[0])
    )

    )
