Your problem is quite easy - your main function is int OnCalculate and, as it is declared as function returning an integer (int) value, it should return such value at the end of function body. OnCalculate should return rates_total:

...
      CANDLE_STRUCTURE cand3;
         cand3=cand2;
         cand2=cand1;
         if(!RecognizeCandle(_Symbol,_Period,time[i-2],InpPeriodSMA,cand1))
            continue;
         bool Buy_Condition_1 = (cand3.trend==DOWN && !cand3.bull);
         bool Buy_Condition_2 = (cand3.type==CAND_LONG || cand3.type==CAND_MARIBOZU || cand3.type==CAND_MARIBOZU_LONG);     
      }   
      return(rates_total); // this is what your code was lacking
  }

You have your return inside the if condition.

You need to return something if the if condition is not satisfied.
