Hi, I want to create an alert if the price increases or decreases by 13 pts on /ES futures within less than or equal to 5 mins.
For ex: I'm on a 1 minute chart. Day started on 06:00 PM 3/16.
Very first bar opened at 4000, high is 4004, low of the bar is 3998. close is 4002. high is 4004.
Then , in next 1 min candle, open is 4002.25, high is 4006, low is 4002.25, close is 4004.
In next min candle, open is 4004, high is 4004, low is 3987, close is 3992.

At this point, high was 4004 and low is 3987 but i want to get an alert when the current price of the bar reaches the difference of 13. so get an alert at 3991. Is this possible?
Idea for this alert is to enter an order to other side for a quick scalp. Because when the price decreases or increases so quickly, there will be a slight pull back and i want to catch that pull back by doing a quick scalp. I am new to the scripting and needs some help from this community. Thanks in Advance.
 
on 1 minutes bar use condition abs(close - close[1]) > 13 or abs(close - close[2]) > 13 or abs(close - close[3]) > 13 or abs(close - close[4]) > 13 or abs(close - close[5) > 13;
