Hi,
I have coded a very simple strategy here, that is basically saying 'If the last 2 bars closed down then buy the next bar at the open and close/exit trade at the next close up bar'
I feel my script is close but I just can't seem to get it on the chart.
Any ideas what im missing to get this working?
many thanks
