Draw Arrow if Bar Over Certain Pip Size

[pmn100]

Hi

I'm struggling to get even the simplest scripts to run here. I have some 5 minute data from IB for the currency pair GBP/USD. The pair is loaded into the strategy analyser and I can right click the pair to run a back test, pull up a chart, etc. I've got a simple script as follows to print some text if a bar high is greater than the low (text on every bar right?) but still nothing prints on the chart after the test is run.

Script:

if (High[0] > Low[0])
{
DrawText("My text" + CurrentBar, "here", 0, 0, Color.Red);
}


So can someone help me get the basics working for me here and get the text or an arrow to print on backtest, and secondly, how would I code this strategy so that I can identify bars over a certain pip size?

From then on I should be able to figure the rest out.

Thanks

Use the Strategy wizard
1 Create new strategy
2) High > Low (use offset here to show large pip size)
3) Go to bottom pane "Do the following"
4) Click "add"
5) Click "drawing"
6) Click "up arrow"
7) Click "Y" and select where you want arrow to appear (Example low of bar)
8) Click next until done

The strategy wizard is easier to use than indicator wizard. Trt it I think you will see it is easy to make fairly complex strategies

I hope this helps
