consecutive bars: one high, a lower high, higher low

[WayneS]

Would like to know how to begin coding to lookback over a period 10days, 50days and find a High followed by a lower high, how can this be done, help

I am new to ThinkScript, can someone give me some starter code on how I might lookback over a period of days, say 15, 50, 30, and find a 3 bar pattern , first a high bar, and next after it a second bar with a lower high following right after it a third bar where the high is higher than the second but lower than the first. if someone would please show me how this might be done. Thank You.

Set the lookback to the number of bars to find the pattern. You can choose to view the pattern by coloring the price bars or bubbles.

#_3Bar_Pattern_Lookback

input lookback   = 50;
input pricecolor = yes;
input bubble     = yes;

def lastbar  = highestall(if !isnan(close) and isnan(close[-1]) then barnumber() else double.nan);

def pattern = if barnumber()>=lastbar-lookback then if high>high[1] and high<high[2] and high[1]<high[2] then 1 else 0 else double.nan;

assignpriceColor(if !pricecolor then color.current else if pattern or pattern[-1] or pattern[-2] then color.yellow else color.current);

addchartBubble(bubble and pattern or pattern[-1] or pattern[-2], high * 1.005, "P", color.yellow, yes);

How would I start code to select three consecutive bars, one high, a lower high, higher low

Can someone please explain how I would write the code to look within a specific time frame for a 3 bar pattern, being a high, then a lower high, followed by a higher low. If someone would please show me some examples of code I can then start to go into the right direction, I'm new to thinkscript. Thank you

Here is the code I previously did for you with the new pattern above.

#_3Bar_Pattern_Lookback_HH_LH_HL

input lookback   = 50;
input pricecolor = yes;
input bubble     = yes;

def lastbar  = HighestAll(if !IsNaN(close) and IsNaN(close[-1]) then BarNumber() else Double.NaN);

def pattern = if BarNumber() >= lastbar - lookback then if high[2] > high[3] and high[1] < high[2] and low > low[1] then 1 else 0 else Double.NaN;

AssignPriceColor(if !pricecolor then Color.CURRENT else if pattern or pattern[-1] or pattern[-2] then Color.YELLOW else Color.CURRENT);

AddChartBubble(bubble and pattern or pattern[-1] or pattern[-2], high * 1.005, "P", Color.YELLOW, yes);
