build a strategy of two successive candles

[lafava7118]

Hello,

I want to build a strategy based on counting candles so my strategy is working like that “if I have two successive red candles and next candle is green I know we can’t tell if we are having a green candle but let say if the price reach the open of the first two red candle we are counting it should take an operation at that pointe
my problem here that my orders are noting filled in the same pointe as the strategy should be
and some times the strategy ignore the condition that is should counter two candles first

this a part of the code that driving me crazy over 9 month , I'm still learinng but i need help

XD

thank you so much for reading and any help will be appreciated

Hello lafava7118,

I think you are wanting to have all of this in one condition set and to be using Open bars ago 2 is greater than Close bars ago 2, Open bars ago 1 is greater than Close bars ago 1, and Close bars ago 0 is greater than or equal to Open bars ago 0 (or bars ago 1 if you want to compare to the previous bar).

With Calculate.OnPriceChange the currently updating bar can be checked on each price change.

hi ChelseaB thank you for your reply even so , i change everything in the same set it will take the order randomly and i need it to fire the order in the same Candel "green" and if it dont meet the conditions it should not make any actions
# how can i make it take actions in the same next candle "Green"
# How to ignore the other single till I exit the operation
i tried to use Nbarup and Nbardown but it didn't work for me

Hello lafava7118,

The "Next" candle doesn't exist. You can only check the currently building (or most recently closed candle) and the previous candles.

To check if the current candle is green, use Close[0] > Open[0].

To check if the previous candle is red, use Close[1] < Open[1].

To check if the second prior candle is red, use Close[2] < Open[2]/
