Please read the documentation! iLowest and iHighest return a bar shift or index, not a price quote. Please study the examples in the documentation.

iHighest

Returns the shift of the maximum value over a specific number of bars

Timeseries and Indicators Access

iLowest

Returns the shift of the lowest value over a specific number of bars

Timeseries and Indicators Access

There are many functions that have the same names but work differently between the two platforms. So it is best to direct users to the correct documentation to prevent confusion.

Show your new code for clarification.

//Price above candles lowest price
if(iLow(pairs[i], toTF(PCS_TimeFrame1), 0) < symbols[i].ask...

//Price below candles highest price
else if(iHigh(pairs[i], toTF(PCS_TimeFrame1), 0) > symbols[i].ask...

Look at the documentation again. What does iHigh/iLow return? Fernando even copy/pasted it for you.

Did you not bother to read it? If you are not going to read our replies, you're at wasting everyone's time.
