Mql5 EA coding - How to check previous two candles if bullish or bearish

New comment
 

Hello everyone.

Am new to MQL5, please can someone show me some mql5 code that can do the following:

  1. pick the first candle of the day, check if it's bullish or bearish. Let's call it candle A
  2. If candle A is bullish then check the previous two candles to it if they are both bearish. If yes, then open a buy pending order at the high of candle A and a sell pending order at low of candle A. 
  3. If candle A is bearish then check the previous two candles to it if they are both bullish . If yes, then open a buy pending order at the high of candle A and a sell pending order at low of candle A. 
  4. Check all candles until the close of day for this condition and execute a trade where candles meet the conditions as true.

  • Usually people who cannot code do not receive free help on this forum.
  • If you show your attempts and describe your problem clearly, you will most probably receive an answer from the community. Use the CODE button (Alt-S) when inserting code.
  • If you do not want to learn to code, that is not a problem. You can either look at the Codebase if something free already exists, or in the Market for paid products (also sometimes free).
  • Finally, you also have the option to hire a programmer in the Freelance section.

Like I said, I'm new to the entire mql 5 world. This is a training process I'm in.

Doesn’t look like a training process to me. First show your attempt and someone (if you are lucky), will answer
