Hi I am having trouble entering an automated trade correctly using the candlestick pattern finder. I'm using both the "Spreadsheet system for trading" and the "candlestick patterns finder" study. I want to enter a trade one tick above the hammer when it is formed. I figured it would do this automatically once this condition is met but it is entering the trade lower when it is formed. See the attached figures. I have a 5 tick range bar chart. Is that throwing it off? |

One possible reason: - If you have 'Signal Only On Bar Close (K,M)' set to No, a Hammer may occur intrabar on a range bar, triggering an entry at an unexpected price. |
