Reply To: Candle Length Function

[Mathew]

Hi Prudhvi,

Remember that the candle is just made up of the high low open and close. So you can use them.  For total candle length it would be High() – Low() For the height of the body (ignoring if it is hollow or solid) it would be ABS(Close() – Open())  The “ABS” takes the absolute value.

If you wanted the last value, put it all in a variable and apply an offset. eg

v1 = High() - Low(); v1[1]

1 2 3 4

v1 = High() - Low(); v1[1]

That will give you the previous length.

Hope that helps

Mathew
