Stop Order within a 60 minute candle

CurtLemmington · Sun, 10 May 2020 20:45:28 +0000

Hello I am relatively new to this. Please can someone explain how I can set up my backtest whereby my entry is at the high or low +2 points from the previous candle on an hourly timescale. It would be a stop order with a the stop loss at either the high or the low of the previous candle depending on the breakout route. Any help would be appreciated – I have not found anything that explains how to set a stop order for back testing mid-candle. Only at the open or close of a previous candle.
