How do I write the code if I want too identify wicks on previous Heiken-Ashi candle? I want too be able too identify if previous red Heiken has no wick on the upper side and if previous green Heiken has no wick on the lower side.

There you go (not tested):

once xOpen = open
xClose     = (open + close + high + low) / 4
if barindex > 0 then
    xOpen  = (xOpen + xClose[1]) / 2
endif
xLow       = min(low,min(xClose,xOpen))
xHigh      = max(high,max(xClose,xOpen))
//xTypic   = (xHigh + xLow + xClose) / 3
//xMed     = (xHigh + xLow) / 2
//xRange   = xHigh - xLow
Bullish    = xClose > xOpen
Bearish    = xClose < xOpen
Red        = Bearish AND (xOpen = xHigh)
Green      = Bullish AND (xOpen = xLow)

once xOpen = open

xClose = (open + close + high + low) / 4

if barindex > 0 then

xOpen = (xOpen + xClose[1]) / 2

endif

xLow = min(low,min(xClose,xOpen))

xHigh = max(high,max(xClose,xOpen))

//xTypic = (xHigh + xLow + xClose) / 3

//xMed = (xHigh + xLow) / 2

//xRange = xHigh - xLow

Bullish = xClose > xOpen

Bearish = xClose < xOpen

Red = Bearish AND (xOpen = xHigh)

Green = Bullish AND (xOpen = xLow)

RED is the current candle, RED[1] is the previous one, RED[2] is the second previous one, and so on….

The same is true for GRREN candles.

As I said, RED is the current candle, RED[1] is the previous one, RED[2] is the second previous one, and so on….

You need to watch some videos about programming at https://www.prorealcode.com/programming-with-prorealtime/, or at https://www.prorealtime.com/en/videos_tutorial-trading and on the ProRealTime’s YouTube channel.

Moreover, reading documentation at https://trading.prorealtime.com/en/programming-help and some of the thousands of code examples in this forum may further help.

We cannot take a complete course post after post!

You have everything in Roberto’s code.

Here a version that you can put under your chart with “barchart” for green and red parameters OR on your graphs with arrows for No-Wicks candles.

once xOpen = open
xClose     = (open + close + high + low) / 4
if barindex > 0 then
xOpen  = (xOpen + xClose[1]) / 2
endif
xLow       = min(low,min(xClose,xOpen))
xHigh      = max(high,max(xClose,xOpen))
//xTypic   = (xHigh + xLow + xClose) / 3
//xMed     = (xHigh + xLow) / 2
//xRange   = xHigh - xLow
Bullish    = xClose > xOpen
Bearish    = xClose < xOpen
Red        = Bearish AND (xOpen = xHigh)
Green      = Bullish AND (xOpen = xLow)

if Green then
drawarrowup(barindex,lowest[3](low)) coloured(0,255,51)
endif

if Red then
drawarrowdown(barindex,highest[3](high)) coloured(102,102,102)
endif

return red as "red" , green as "green"

once xOpen = open

xClose = (open + close + high + low) / 4

if barindex > 0 then

xOpen = (xOpen + xClose[1]) / 2

endif

xLow = min(low,min(xClose,xOpen))

xHigh = max(high,max(xClose,xOpen))

//xTypic = (xHigh + xLow + xClose) / 3

//xMed = (xHigh + xLow) / 2

//xRange = xHigh - xLow

Bullish = xClose > xOpen

Bearish = xClose < xOpen

Red = Bearish AND (xOpen = xHigh)

Green = Bullish AND (xOpen = xLow)

if Green then

drawarrowup(barindex,lowest[3](low)) coloured(0,255,51)

endif

if Red then

drawarrowdown(barindex,highest[3](high)) coloured(102,102,102)

endif

return red as "red" , green as "green"

Hi Roberto, Luciole – I have tried to programme on arrow, alert when RED crosses over Green and vice versa i.e. when open trying to go over last bar with no wicks and vice versa for down, but not working as I might need to loop, also to calculate points /pips from last arrow/alert on either side, which I am not able to do, please can you help?

//minCandles = 1
//
once xOpen = open
xClose = (open + close + high + low) / 4
if barindex > 0 then
xOpen = (xOpen + xClose[1]) / 2
trigger=xOpen
endif
xLow = min(low,min(xClose,xOpen))
xHigh = max(high,max(xClose,xOpen))
xpip=xHigh-xLow
//xTypic = (xHigh + xLow + xClose) / 3
//xMed = (xHigh + xLow) / 2
//xRange = xHigh – xLow
Bullish = xClose > xOpen
Bearish = xClose < xOpen
Red = Bearish AND (xOpen = xHigh)
Green = Bullish AND (xOpen = xLow)
c1=Bullish crosses over Red
c2=Green crosses under Red

if c1 and trigger then
drawarrowup(barindex,lowest[3](low)) coloured(0,255,51)
//DRAWTEXT(xpip,barindex,highest[8],Dialog,Bold,5) coloured(“Green”)
endif

if c2 and trigger then
drawarrowdown(barindex,highest[3](high)) coloured(102,102,102)
endif

return c1 or c2

I think I sorted the 1st issue with crosses under and over. Now I am getting the right alert.

Still need help with calculating number of points from last top or bottom to current price, it’s difficult to get around on my own, please help?
