to check if condition occured in lat 8 bars

[tkaboris]

HI i have a condition below that evaluates a imbalanceLongHTF condition to true. How can i add aditional logic to determine if imbalanceLongHTF occured in the last 6 bars?

if(((Close[2] > Open[2] || Close[2] < Open[2])
&& Close[1] > Open[1] && (Close[0] > Open[0] || Close[0] < Open[0])) &&
Low[0] > High[2] && (Math.Abs(Low[0] - High[2]) >= 2))
{
longimbalanceHTFTopLevel = Low[0];
longimbalanceHTFBotLevel = High[2];
imbalanceLongHTF = true;

}

First, you could shorten some of your code:
From (Close[2] > Open[2] || Close[2] < Open[2])
To Close[2] != Open[2]
And from (Close[0] > Open[0] || Close[0] < Open[0])
To Close[0] != Open[0]

Then you might need to modify Math.Abs(Low[0] - High[2]) >= 2)
To Math.Abs(Low[0] - High[2]) >= 2*TickSize) if that is what you actually wanted.

Then you could use a bool series: private Series<bool> ImbalanceLongSeries;

When you test imbalanceLongHTF = true; you can store it in the series ImbalanceLongSeries[0] = true;
Ex.
if(imbalanceLongHTF)
ImbalanceLongSeries[0] = true;
else
ImbalanceLongSeries[0] = false;

Then loop through the last 6 bars to check for any true condition.
