Price x> Fractal / Price x<Fractal not registering
-
Hi all,
I'm trying to build an EA which initiates trades (subsequent to some conditions) when fractals are broken (buys when this happens to upward fractals, sells in the case of downward fractals).
However I can't get my EAs to take any trades when I use these initial conditions. The EAs will trade when this first step is replaced with something else (or removed entirely), so obviously I'm doing something wrong in setting this up:

I have been setting the candle IDs to 2, as fractals appear 2 candles after the fact - can anyone shed any light on why this isn't working?

@specialfx the fractal is never broken by price

Not sure we're on the same page here, this is an example of an upward fractal being broken:

I want to buy the candle that breaks the fractal I have circled (selling is the same concept in reverse).
See what I mean?
