You may want to create an ATR variable first. You may find this post helpful

@tipsywisdom said in Help Please. Problem with RSI Activating Trade on Wrong Bar:

for an indicator like RSI, first Id suggest tossing the indicator. But if you must use it, C1 (candle 1) is probably what you're looking for.

Thank you. Much appreciated.

Hi Folks,

As you will see from the first image, I am trying to get the RSI to trigger a trade when the the candle closes and the RSI has crossed above the 20 line.

The second image is showing the RSI is triggering the trade 3 bars early. The orange arrow is showing where the bar has closed after the RSI has crossed from below to above the 20 line.
The open of the next candle is the trigger for the trade to open.

The sell side has the same problem - opening the trade at three bars early.

What am I doing wrong, please?

@jstap Thank you. That has been a great help.

Hi Folks.

I need help in setting a stoploss using a multiple of ATR. Say... ATR x 3. Anybody help me setting this up in both "Buy Now" and "Sell Now", please?
