Candle sandwich code

[SJP07]

I'm trying to write a code that points an arrow when there's a green candle between two red candles and a red candle between two green candles. Below is a screenshot example.

Here's what I have so far:

def Red_Bar = open > close;
def Green_Bar = close > open;

def Bullish_Order_Block = Red_Bar[3] is true && Green_Bar[2] is true && Red_Bar[1] is true;
Plot Bullish_OB = if Bullish_Order_Block is true then high[1] else double.nan;

Thank you in advance!

Try this

def Red_Bar   = open > close;
def Green_Bar = close > open;

def Bullish_Order_Block = if Green_Bar then if Red_Bar[1] && Red_Bar[-1] then 1 else 0 else Double.NaN;
plot Bullish_OB = if Bullish_Order_Block is true then low else Double.NaN;
Bullish_OB.SetPaintingStrategy(PaintingStrategy.BOOLEAN_ARROW_UP);

def Bearish_Order_Block = if Red_Bar then if Green_Bar[1] && Green_Bar[-1] then 1 else 0 else Double.NaN;
plot Bearish_OB = if Bearish_Order_Block is true then high else Double.NaN;
Bearish_OB.SetPaintingStrategy(PaintingStrategy.BOOLEAN_ARROW_DOWN);

This is great! Thanks as always! Would it be possible only to have these signals show if they occur three bars [or a certain amount of bars] away from the low?

How are you defining "the low"? ... a pivot ... of the day ... etc
Do you want definition to apply to both bullish and bearish? Or some other method?
Do you have a chart mock up of what you want to include with your response?

I would say something like this code. The highest/lowest points across ten bars...
