Trying to prove condition TRUE for PRICE > SMA? (not crossing - just above/ below)
-
How do i enter a condition that checks CURRENT PRICE is above SMA 14? I understand how to add the condition CROSSES the SMA 14 but not sure about checking the current state of the current price and it's relationship to an SMA line - either, currently above, or currently below... can anyone help? Thanks
Seems so simple i must be overlooking something.

"> higher than
< less than
x> crossed above
x< crossed under -
okay thanks - but it seems like this doesn't necessarily check for the 'current price' against the sma line. seems that it's checking the candle after it's completely formed - er go the 'candle close' option chosen.
am i just reading this incorrectly?

maybe i answered my own question... in more settings there is an option for the time-frame and at the bottom of the list is CURRENT

the Candle ID you can see in the candle close section is what candle to take the value from.
0 being the current candlecandle close is the current price on the current candle, because close is the last value that bar ever had
since the bar is still running it means close is always the current value
