Hi

Try this example:

// Rates structure array for the data of the last complete bar 
   MqlRates MyBar[];                 
   CopyRates(Symbol(), PERIOD_M30, 1, 1, mrate);

// Distance between HIGH/LOW of 30 min BAR multiplied by pip factor value.
   double dHigh_Low_Distance = (MyBar[0].high - MyBar[0].low) * 10000;
   
// Check if distance is greater than or smaller than 30 pips
   if(dHigh_Low_Distance > 15 && dHigh_Low_Distance < 30)
         {
         Alert("The BAR value of symbol = ", Symbol(), " is between 15 and 30 pips ", dHigh_Low_Distance);        
         }
