Extra Engulfing candle with excessive volume

[Christopher Leggit]

hi New user here i have bare coding experience but im learning as i go.
Im wanting to show when the current candle has greater volume than 3 previouse candles before it added together

I grasp the code



if (Volume[0] > Volume[1])

represents current bar volume greater than the previous

how do i code for current bar volume greater than the 3 previous

i know this is not it but ... eg.

if (Volume[0] > Volume[1+2+3])

thank you very much friends

Hello CL,

if (CurrentBar > 3 && Volume[0] > Volume[1] && Volume[0] > Volume[2] && Volume[0] > Volume[3])

Below I am providing a link to a forum post with helpful information about getting started with NinjaScript and C# programming.
