Strategy

[traderto]

Hello, I'm trying to create a simple daily strategy. Each day, I want to buy or sell depending on what the market did 30 days ago (or 30 bars ago). If the market had an up day 30 days ago, I buy. If it had a down day 30 days ago, I sell. It sounds simple but I'm having difficulty with it. Can you guide me on how to set up this strategy? Thanks, Trevor

Hello traderto,

To compare the open of 30 bars ago to the close of 30 bars ago:

if (CurrentBar > 30 && Close[30] > Open[30])
