Check all Previous indicator buffer and get candle ID

[gnoviawan]

Hi everyone, currently im try to create a live backtest for my indicator, what i'm trying to do is,
1. i want to get all arrow that generated from indicator buffer 0 and 1
2. check it after specific time/candle if price close above or below open price on that signal buffer.
example, if sell signal is appear on candle[20] and i want to check after next 5 candle if price is close below candle_open[20] the logic in my mind is like this :
candle_open[20] > candle_close[16] ( next 5 candle from signal, and i want to start counting from the signal appear, so 20,19,18,17,16)

Question:

1. i'm not sure which function to do that, should i use Indicator is visible or For each Object
2. how to get candle id from that signal ? if i know this one it will be easy to check if price is close above / below signal after specific candle

thank you!

@gnoviawan If I understad it correcty you need to review what happened in the past only. You are designing an indicator then, not an EA. If that is what you want you will need a loop for sure, ie a 'For each object'. Depending on the indicator's buffer you can use that 'indicator is visible' block too, but maybe searching for those object ins another option.

Sadly, loops are not my field of expertise. Maybe roar or miro can help.

@l-andorrà thank you for your help.

And modified it a lil bit.
