You can refer to a past conditions with periods offset under bracket:

IF C3[2] AND C4 THEN

In this example, the C3 condition was met 2 bars ago and the C4 one, on the current candlestick.

Please let us know if you have any other questions about testing conditions in the past data.

How much maximum bars in the past would you like to know if the stochastic was in the oversold area before your MACD condition happen?

That’s the reason why I asked you this question:

For this purpose, we need to create a condition that will return “true” if the stochastic were at least 1 bar under level 20, X bars before now, but we have to define how much bars to lookback, otherwise we could fetch through the entire history! 🙂

Your C3 condition could look like this:

X = 10 //define how much bars in the past we look if the stochastic were under level 20

C3 = summation[x](sto<20)>0

Where ‘sto’ is your stochastic variable of course. So if the stochastic was at least one bar under level 20 between now and 10 bars ago, C3 will be true. You can now easily adapt this code snippet to your stochastic %D and %K cross also.
