Try these:
=AND(H-L>3*(O-C),(C-L)/(.001+H-L)>0.6,(O-L)/(.001+H-L)>0.6)

=AND((H-L)>4*(O - C),(H-C)/(.001+H-L)>= 0.75,(H-O)/(.001+H-L)>=0.75)

Here's the documentation for Alert formulas and format:

You could also use the CandleStick Patterns Finder study with a formula like this in its Alert tab:
=SG1>0
