4 green bars followed by a very long one

  I’d be really grateful for any assistance as to why this simple code doesn’t work. Above is a screen shot of the eur/usd showing 4 green bars followed by a very long one. All I want the code to do is detect 3 consecutive green bars – the final one of which is a large multiple of the one before – e.g. 5x then sell. Thanks all Linden

  c1 = (Close[1] - Open[1]) > 5*(Close[2] - Open[2]) c2 = (Close[3]) > Open[3] ) IF c1 and c2 THEN SELLSHORT 1 lot at market endif

  1 2 3 4 5

  c1 = (Close[1] - Open[1]) > 5*(Close[2] - Open[2]) c2 = (Close[3]) > Open[3] ) IF c1 and c2 THEN SELLSHORT 1 lot at market   endif

  Hi stratus,

  Not tested, but it would operate properly I believe:

   

  c1 = summation[4](close>open)=4 c2 = range>range[1]*5 if c1 and c2 then SELLSHORT 1 LOT AT MARKET endif

  1 2 3 4 5 6

  c1 = summation[4](close>open)=4 c2 = range>range[1]*5   if c1 and c2 then SELLSHORT 1 LOT AT MARKET endif
