higher high long lower low short EA

[jordanburch]

higher high lower low strategy help. I am trying to build based on if the candle has a lower low to the prior vs current candle then sell. If the next candle has a higher high then buy. Does anyone have something like that? I built something but it doesnt work right for whatever reason. 0_1645816263869_new2.ex5

@jordanburch The candle ID 0 does not exist because it is the current candle and it is forming right now, you have to compare the candle ID1 with the candle ID2

[AlphaOmega]

@ambrogio ... why you say it does not exist? Candle 0 is the current candle and then when it close it becomes candle 1 and the current candle 1 will become candle 2 etc.

@alphaomega thanks will check out soon!

[ambrogio]

@alphaomega I say this because the only thing you know about the candle ID0 is the opening price, nothing else. The candle ID0 is never a definite entity. How can you compare the high or low or the closure of candle ID0 if you don't know them?

[AlphaOmega]

@ambrogio I totally agree with you, but you cannot say ID0 does not exist. @jordanburch is working on M1 chart so the ID0 will play an important role considering where PA is moving. He should consider using MA-crossover or candle volume to bring the ID0 into play?
edit:
This is ID0 orders... the current candle is still deciding where to go. IMO I think its important when using time frame M1 to consider ID0 in finding the HH or visa versa

I'm sorry to contradict you but this is not my personal opinion, it's called technical analysis. What you mean you can do with a condition "bid > candle close ID1", but not "candle close ID0 > candle close ID1". Below I took the first condition from your project, you need to note all false signals and even the total lack of signals.

@ambrogio You are correct ... my apologies!!

@jordanburch
It may not be that required but I think it will be useful for you with some modification

Hello!
I think, i need similar information about the current candle ID0…

The previous candle with ID1 it’s clear…Candle close for sell or buy direction.

The current candle is not clear for me…here, I would like to describe, when the ID0 candle is without a wick, than the next block for the other checks…
The only thing what I know about the current candle is, the the body size is minimum 50 pips for example.

How can I solve this?

Thank you!
