Close open pricing

[Dale1670]

I am trying to create a strategy using the wizard which compares the closing price from the previous day with the opening price from today, but I'm not having much luck. Are there any additional tutorials, other than the two in the help section?

Thanks,
Dale

Hi Dale, welcome to our forums!

Have you seen the help guide yet? You can click on this link, and then on the left side (table of contents) scroll down, and click on Strategy Wizard. In this section there are many examples to get you started.

With regards to comparing the closing price from the previous day, and the opening price from today, you can take a look at CurrentDayOHL and PriorDayOHLC. To do what you'd like in the wizard, please see my attached picture.

In the picture, just as an example, the code says this: "if the current open is greater than the prior close"

Thanks Austin, I am brand new, I had seen some help sections, but the link you gave me looks much better.

You're welcome, Dale. The first link I sent to you takes you right to the Help Guide. There is plenty of information located there--it is basically the manual for our program.
