Hello,
I am trying to display a very simple background condition.
The condition is true, when the VPOC is on the second place compared to the high or low.
I used the formula OR(ID2.SG42=H - 1*TICKSIZE, ID2.SG42=L + 1*TICKSIZE)but it doesn´t seem to work ?!

Thank you for your help !

Best regards
Hauke

Try this:
- Set the 'Value Format' of the Numbers Bars Calculated Values study to 0.01
- Use this formula:
OR(
MROUND(ID2.SG42,TICKSIZE)=MROUND(H,TICKSIZE) - 1*TICKSIZE,
MROUND(ID2.SG42,TICKSIZE)=MROUND(L,TICKSIZE) + 1*TICKSIZE)

The Value Format setting allows the formula to see the price to the penny.
The MROUND function rounds prices to the ticksize, removing any floating point errors.
