Hello Yevhenii,

Thank you for your note.

To get the price of the close and the volume at this time yesterday, under OnBarUpdate you should post the following,

DateTime nowDate =DateTime.Now; //Saves the current Date/Time to variable nowDate

nowDate= nowDate.AddDays(-1); //Subtracts 1 day from the date of nowDate

int yesBarsAgo = GetBar(nowDate); //Gives you how many bars ago 1 day ago at this time was.

double yesClose = Close[yesBarsAgo]; //Assigns the closing price of yesterday on this bar to yesClose variable.

double yesVolume = Volume[yesBarsAgo]; //Assigns the volume of yesterday on this bar to yesVolume variable.

Print("Time "+Time[yesBarsAgo]+"YesVolume = "+yesVolume.ToString() +" YesClose "+yesClose);

You should now be able to use yesClose and yesVolume in your condition.
Please see AddDays Method:
