  Hi,

  I need help coding a system that opens a position the candle after the first candle of the day on a 5 minute chart if that candle is a pin/small candle with alot of wick. I need help doing this since I don’t know how to code the system so that it would recognize pin/small candles in a short amount of time.

  Thanks

  You can play with Intradaybarindex to find the second bar of the day. Then test if this candle is a pinbar, doji, whatever ..

  Try it by yourself, I’m pretty sure you can make it. You’ll thank me later.
