[amibroker] Re: HELP - Power Scan

Hi,

When you say it didn't work, what do you mean?  The code gave errors?
 You ran the exploration and got no results?  You got results but
those candle patterns were not what you were hoping for?

What is your logic for the 1st candle?
What is your logic for the 2nd candle?
What is your logic for the 3rd candle?

All I see is that you are using OHLC values and am not looking at the
body length. But that can be added latter.

How did my scan work?  I know it wasn't anything to do with searching
for candles but it can be used to lay the foundation down so you can
build your search and look at each condition.

Work with me here by providing the logic for each candle. I will
modify my exploration scan (stripping out stuff you don't need) so you
can see the power of the method I am trying to teach you.

Dave
