I am in need of some help in creating a certain formula. I need to be able to say that prior to the current candle I am in, there needs to be at least one Bullish or Bearish candle ,depending on if it's a long or short trade scenario.

So another way to say this would be that I need to be in at least my second bullish or bearish candle in a row before I can take a trade. I need to know how I could represent this as a formula. It will be placed within a larger formula just FYI.

Hopefully that's not too confusing. Any help is appreciated.

Thanks
Chris

Simple Alert syntax:

Two bullish candles in succession:
=AND(C[-1]>O[-1],C>O)

Two bearish candles in succession:
=AND(C[-1]<O[-1],C<O)

Spreadsheet syntax:

Two bullish candles in succession:
=AND(E4>B4,E3>B3)

Two bearish candles in succession:
=AND(E4<B4,E3<B3)
