[amibroker] Making Bricks?

["Mr Valley" <valleymj@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

All,

How do you create a Hollow Candle with Lines around the body of the candle
over multiple days, using the Plot Function?

I'm trying to create Bricks for essentially TLB.... Then I will overlay
price action on top of it...

 1 Brick = 3 Consecutive Lows or 3 Consecutive Highs
 If if wasn't a consecutive low or high then the brick lines would remain
the height of the previous one


In this example, it took eleven bars to get 3 consecutive down and eleven
bars to get 3 consecutive up
for a total of twenty two bars.  So, I guess I need to accumulate the
consecutive lows until there are three, then make one brick, but show each
bar.

I know it can't be that hard, but I can't figure it out.




Thanks for any help...
These below don't work, my formula probably isn't right.
How can one do it with a loop function?
Would that be easier?

Mr. Valley
brickdown = (Ref(C,-1) > C) AND (Ref(C,-2) > Ref(C,-1)) AND (Ref(C,-3) >
Ref(C,-2)) ;

brickup = (Ref(C,-1) < C) AND (Ref(C,-2) < Ref(C,-1)) AND (Ref(C,-3) <
Ref(C,-2)) ;

//bdless3 = ValueWhen(brickdown =1,Ref(brickdown ,-3));

//buless3 = ValueWhen(brickup =1,Ref(brickup ,-3));

Plot(brickup ,"brickup ",6,512);

Plot(brickdown,"brickdown ",4,styleArea);



Nor this,

/* Stacking Bricks v1 */

brickdown = (Ref(C,-1) > C) AND (Ref(C,-2) > Ref(C,-1)) AND (Ref(C,-3) >
Ref(C,-2)) ;

brickup = (Ref(C,-1) < C) AND (Ref(C,-2) < Ref(C,-1)) AND (Ref(C,-3) <
Ref(C,-2)) ;

//Plot(brickdown

Graph1 = brickdown *10 ;

Graph1BarColor = 4;

Graph1Style = 64;

Graph2 = brickdown * 10;

Graph2BarColor = 6 ;

Graph2Style = 64;
