Hello everybody,

I have been tweaking candlestick patterns for some time now and I am trying to come up with a good pattern recognition indicator to trade them as "systematically" as possible. After I watched the below video from one of the "Naked Trading" authors, I would like to try his 3rd rule on "Unique Space" in my indicator.

I am wondering if somebody could help me or provide some guidance with this code: I would like to know if price (LineOnClose may be a good idea?) has touched a "level" on the previous "xx bars" (maybe 20 bars ago for starters?)

All input is very much appreciated, the referred video below:




Thanks!
Carlos
