Question how do I set a condition: if my current candle AKA Candle 0 is X number of pips away from MA, do not trade?
E.g If my candle close above MA > 10 pips trade but if > 10 pips but exceed 30 pips - DO not trade. I need the Do not exceed condition.

Please help. Thank you

Try this:

Please note that this condition means that if price is BELOW MA+30 pips the it will pass to the next block (buy now for example). If price is ABOVER that value it will not pass, so there will not be a trade.

Hi @l-andorrà ,

Thank you for your response. The above will not work as I need the Candle to be above MA to open a buy trade. Meaning it has to be > MA but yet the distance between the opening candle and the MA cannot be more than 30 pips.

I tried using your concept but using "Ask" or "Bid" price and it works well

Thank you

Update - the above does not work accordingly. I misinterpreted the result
