Help me to adapt an existing code (Piercing pattern)

  Hi,

   

  I have absolutely zero knowledge about coding. Therefore I need some help which will take an experienced guy literally 3 minutes. Cristof wrote the code for the piercing pattern, which I attached.

  It finds the piercing pattern, after it was confirmed by a third, a bullish candle.What I need is this code WITHOUT the candle that follows the piercing pattern. I would like to find the piercing pattern in “real time”, without having to wait for the third candle for confirmation.

  As i mentioned, I assume it is pretty easy to adapt the existing code  for somebody experienced, so I hope that you will find some time.

   

  Thanks in advance

  Always use the ‘Insert PRT Code’ button when putting code in your posts to make it easier for others to read.

  Thank you 🙂

  This should do (not tested):

  // Piercing pattern is a downtrend follow by a bullish candle // that closes above 50% of the preceding bearish candle, // that could indicate a reversal, // this screener includes a fairly good confirmation of that pattern, // it starts from a bullish candle, and it finds the pattern in the two previous candles // @Cristofer (= // V1 currentClose = Close currentOpen = Open // Bullish candle c1 = 1 OR (currentOpen < currentClose) piercingHigh = High[0] piercingClose = Close[0] piercingOpen = Open[0] piercingLow = Low[0] // piercing is bullish c2 = piercingClose > piercingOpen bearishHigh = High[1] bearishOpen = Open[1] bearishClose = Close[1] bearishLow = Low[1] // is a bearish candle c3 = bearishOpen > bearishClose // lower high, lower low c4 = bearishHigh > piercingHigh AND bearishLow > piercingLow // piercing opens lower than bearish close c5 = piercingOpen < bearishClose // piercing closes above 50% level of the bearish candle c6 = ((bearishOpen + bearishClose) / 2) < piercingClose AND piercingClose < bearishOpen SCREENER[c1 AND c2 AND c3 AND c4 AND c5 AND c6]
