n Candles in a row

  Hi, I’m attempting to add a piece of code into my screener that looks for stocks that are;

  Above/below  1% on the day, last 4 or 5 candles(5 min) are all of the same direction/type, and during those 4 or 5 candles the stock traveled at least 0.5%.

  It’s proving to be alot harder than I thought since none of my attempts are working out. So if anyone could help me out/point me in the right direction that would be great.

  I’ve been using one stock to base my code off so I would know if it’s working or not, which is why I’m using a very specific Time condition.

  Thanks in advance and Happy New Year! 🙂

  Here’s a picture of the stock I’m basing my code off(15:55pm to 16:20pm) https://gyazo.com/aec1bc07101be43852076eccb689f82c and Below is my code so far:

   

  tcondition = time>160000 and time<170000

  timeframe (daily)
  BullonDay = variation>1
  BearonDay = variation<-1

  Timeframe (5 minutes)
  BullBody = (close > open)

  Bull4 = summation[4](bullbody)+(variation(close))>=0.5
  Bull5 = summation[5](bullbody)+(variation(close))>=0.5

  Bull = Bull4 or Bull5

  BullRow = Bull and BullonDay

  BearBody = (close < open)

  Bear4 = summation[4](bearbody)+(variation(close))>=0.5
  Bear5 = summation[5](bearbody)+(variation(close))>=0.5

  Bear = Bear4 or Bear5

  BearRow = Bear and BearonDay
  Screener [BearRow or BullRow]

  if close[4]>dclose(1)*1.005 and close>dclose(1)*1.01 and close>open and close[1]>open[1] and close[2]>open[2] and close[3]>open[3] then BullConditions=1 endif

  1 2 3

  if close[4]>dclose(1)*1.005 and close>dclose(1)*1.01 and close>open and close[1]>open[1] and close[2]>open[2] and close[3]>open[3] then BullConditions=1 endif

  if close[5]>dclose(1)*1.005 and close>dclose(1)*1.01 and close>open and close[1]>open[1] and close[2]>open[2] and close[3]>open[3] and close[4]>open[4] then BullConditions=1 endif

  if close[5]>dclose(1)*1.005 and close>dclose(1)*1.01 and close>open and close[1]>open[1] and close[2]>open[2] and close[3]>open[3] and close[4]>open[4] then BullConditions=1 endif

   

  Does something like that work for bullish?
