you have "ID6.SG1=3" & "ID6.SG2=4" which both refer to the Candlestick pattern finder, why 3&4? Those are what the study outputs for Bullish Engulfing and Bearish Engulfing. They are the 3rd and 4th choices listed when you choose the pattern. Using the specific output instead of >0 allows the formula to differentiate between patterns. so for instance if i want to add one more Candle stick finder with ID6.SG3 would it be ID6.SG3=5? 5 is Dark Cloud Cover because it is the 5th in the list, but the value might not always correspond. If you set 'Use Numeric Values Instead Of Letter Codes' to Yes, you can see the number at the bar where the pattern occurs. Refer to: CandleStick Patterns Finder
