Checking if a Condition has occurred within N Periods

CapnCrunch77 · 2020-12-18T20:43:44+00:00

Hello All, I’m trying to write a programme line entry whereby I want to execute a trade if a condition has been fulfilled with the last N periods (for example; if a cross of price over 100 MA line has occurred within X number of time frames). Anyone able to provide guidane on how this condition can be expressed? Thanks!

There you go:
```
x = summation[10](condition)
If x Then
 .
 .
Endif
```

Awesome, thanks Roberto!!!

Follow up question, do you know how I could make this work with TIMEFRAME? say for instance, I want to check this in a 10min chart and my default where I am running the programme is 5 min (i.e. I want the programme to trade only if condition X has een validated in 10min timeframe).

You can use it as many times as needed, provided you name variabls differently among TF’s:
```
Timeframe(10 minute,UpdateOnClose)
x10 = summation[10](10-minute-condition)
If x10 Then
 .
 .
Endif
Timeframe(default)
xD = summation[10](default-TF-condition)
If xD Then                               //or If xD AND x10 Then
 .
 .
Endif
```
