I'm trying to figure out how to create backscans using candletick patterns.

Can you help with two "buy" conditions.

1. Doji with a gap up up the next day

2. Hammer with a gap up the next day

My hpe is that these two examples will provide insight to continue to create more candlestick based backscans.

Here is how I would do a Hammer and a Hammer with a Gap.

Note the conditions I created and their block diagram.

Note how I used the AND THEN and set the properties of the sequence to force the gap to happen the next day.

Save them both in the following folder:
\My Documents\My SnapSheets\Tool Parts\BackScan Conditions
Once there, you can add either to your BackScan via the ADD CONDITION button and choosing MY COMPUTER.
