Successive bars lookback

[kaywai]

Hi,

I'm trying to code an indicator which checks all 11 previous bars for every new bar printed to see whether the condition is true. Unfortunately, I'm not getting the desired result. My code is as follows:-

if(CurrentBar < 13) return;

if(Close[1] < Close[5])
{
for( int x = 1; x <= 11; x++)
{
if( Close[0] > High[x])
{
Draw.TriangleUp(this,"lvup"+CurrentBar, true, 0, (Low[0]-SMA(Range(),9)[0]*0.15), Brushes.Green);
}
}
}

What am I missing? This is the result I'm getting (^SP500 (Daily) 2021_11_12 (11_39_13 AM).png) when I'm looking to get this (Screenshot 2022-04-25 114426.png). The rectangles are the reference area.

Could you please point me in the right direction?

Hello kaywai,

I'm not clear on the rule you are wanting. The condition is checking the close of the current bar is greater than the high of a previous bar, x bars ago?
What is the check of the Close of 1 bar ago being less than the Close of 5 bars ago doing?
Is this meant to draw on each bar or just the current bar?

Possibly:

for (int index = 1; index < 12; index++)
{
if (Close[0] > High[index])
Draw.TriangleUp(this,"lvup"+(CurrentBar-index).ToString(), true, index, (Low[index]-SMA(Range(),9)[index]*0.15), Brushes.Green);
}

Hi Chelsea,

Sorry for the trouble Chelsea. It was the first criteria that was causing the problem.
