Hello, how can I create:

If current bar is candlestick pattern (Doji) condition ?

I dont find the right IF value in the strategy builder for the candlestick pattern finder indicator.

Hello Uregon,

Thanks for your post.

The CandleStickPattern indicator should be compared to a numerical value (Misc. folder > Numerical value) when used in a strategy condition. If a candlestick pattern is found, such as doji, the value of the CandleStickPattern indicator will be 1.

For example, you could compare if CandlestickPattern(ChartPattern.Doji, 4)[0] == 1. in your condition.

See the attached image for what this would look like in the Strategy Builder.

See this help guide page for more information about the CandleStickPattern indicator: https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...ickpattern.htm

Let me know if I may assist further.
