BarTypes Function

The BARTYPES() function allows you to easily identify bars that fit the following criteria:

• Higher (higher high & higher low than previous, regardless of close position)
• Lower (lower high & lower low than previous, regardless of close position)
• Outside the previous (higher high & lower low)
• Inside the previous (lower high & higher low)
• Close Above Open
• Close Below Open
• Close Above Midpoint
• Close Below Midpoint

To highlight or colour a bar that has closed below its midpoint:

BARTYPES().CloseBelowMid

To scan for an Outside bar where the close was below the open:

BARTYPES().Outside

and

BARTYPES().CloseBelowOpen
