Displace an arrow

[Cribbage]

Anyone know a way to displace the arrow that a study prints on a chart when the study's conditions are met? Have it pop up on the candle before the candle that makes the study conditions true?

I tried using the EMA displacement code but couldn't find a way to make it work so I took it out.

def IsUp = close > open;
def IsDown = close < open;
def IsDoji = IsDoji();
def avgRange = 0.05 * Average(high - low, 20);
plot PatternPlot =
    IsUp[2] and
    IsDown[1] and
    IsUp[0] and
    low[1] < low[0] and
    low[1] is equal to Lowest(low[1], 2);

PatternPlot.SetPaintingStrategy(PaintingStrategy.BOOLEAN_WEDGE_DOWN);
PatternPlot.SetDefaultColor(GetColor(5));

I want the wedge to appear under candle [1].

See if this link's code which moves the arrow based upon an input of how many bars left/right helps with your request.

I tried adding these lines to my code, but didn't see a difference.

input arrowmover = -1;#Hint arrowmover: increase/decrease arrowmover to move arrowmover right/left
def n  = arrowmover;
def n1 = n + 1;

I think its what I'm looking for but I can't seem to get it to work.

That portion of code by itself does not move the arrow. It is used with the following portion from the link

input arrowmover = -1;#Hint arrowmover: increase/decrease arrowmover to move arrowmover right/left
def n  = arrowmover;
def n1 = n + 1;

#2 Bar buy
def b1 = (low > Max(LowerBand, UpperBand));
def buy1Count = if b1 then buy1Count[1] + 1 else 0;
plot test = buy1Count;
test.SetPaintingStrategy(PaintingStrategy.VALUES_ABOVE);

plot buy1 = if !IsNaN(close[n]) and buy1Count[n1] == 2 then 1 else 0;
buy1.SetPaintingStrategy(PaintingStrategy.BOOLEAN_ARROW_UP);
buy1.SetDefaultColor(Color.UPTICK);
Alert(buy1, "Buy 1", Alert.BAR, Sound.Ding);

The plot buy1 is where that arrowmover code is used. It takes where the arrow would normally plot and uses the indexes, [n] and [n1], in buy1 to move the arrow by the number of bars input at arrowmover.

If you are still having problems, please post your actual code and I may be able to assist you further.
