Coding something happening in the last 5 periods

Juan Salas · 2017-07-07T18:50:20+00:00

Hi everyone, Is it possible to code something happening in the last 5 periods??? Example: IF MM6 Crosses over MM5 (in any of the last 5 candles) AND close>MM6 THEN I am trying to BUY when two or more conditions occur, but in some cases all of them happen within the last 3-5 candles. Thanks in advance, Juan

```
if condition1 then
 signalindex=intradaybarindex
endif
if condition2 and intradaybarindex-signalindex<=5 then
 buy 1 contract at market
endif
```
This should do it.

You may try this one:
```
.
.
.
IF summation[5]((Average[6] CROSSES OVER Average[5]) AND (close > Average[6])) > 0 THEN
.
.
.
ENDIF
.
.
.
```
