  Hi,

   

  I want to count how many candles (before a bearish engulfing candle) that closes above the exponential moving average. I just cant figure out how to code it. I tried For-do-next and failed. can anyone help me with this?

  There you go:

  Bullish = close > open Bearish = close < open Opposite = (Bearish AND Bullish[1]) OR (Bearish[1] AND Bullish) Body = abs(close - open) Engulfing = (Body > Body[1]) AND Opposite BearishEng= Engulfing AND Bearish AND (Open >= close[1]) AND (close <= open[1]) MyEma = average[50,1](close) BarCount = 0 If BearishEng THEN FOR i = BarIndex - 1 DOWNTO 1 x = BarIndex - i IF close[x] > MyEma[x] THEN BarCount = BarCount + 1 ELSE BREAK ENDIF NEXT ENDIF RETURN BarCount

  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19

  Bullish   = close > open Bearish   = close < open Opposite  = (Bearish AND Bullish[1]) OR (Bearish[1] AND Bullish) Body      = abs(close - open) Engulfing = (Body > Body[1]) AND Opposite BearishEng= Engulfing AND Bearish AND (Open >= close[1]) AND (close <= open[1]) MyEma     = average[50,1](close) BarCount  = 0 If BearishEng THEN    FOR i = BarIndex - 1 DOWNTO 1       x = BarIndex - i       IF close[x] > MyEma[x] THEN          BarCount = BarCount + 1       ELSE          BREAK       ENDIF    NEXT ENDIF RETURN BarCount
