nBarsUp/nBarsDown / maximum x bars

nt2010 · 08-26-2010, 05:38 AM

Hello,

i have a question regarding a strategy build.

I want to go short with an break of every 5 minute bar as long we had not more than e.g. 2 upcandles in the selected time frame for the day.
How can i do this ?

with nBarsUP/down i look for a "minimum" of x up or down bars.
Can i also set the condition somehow to work as "maximum" ?

thank you for your support

nt2010, I believe you can work with CountIf to test for this occurence during your time periods of the day - http://www.ninjatrader-support.com/H...6/CountIf.html
