If just the current price needs to be between the 20 and 50 period simple moving averages:

AVGC20 + AVGC50 - ABS(AVGC20 - AVGC50) <= 2 * C AND 2 * C <= AVGC20 + AVGC50 + ABS(AVGC20 - AVGC50)

If just the body of the candle needs to be between the 20 and 50 period simple moving averages:

AVGC20 + AVGC50 - ABS(AVGC20 - AVGC50) <= O + C - ABS(O - C) AND O + C + ABS(O - C) <= AVGC20 + AVGC50 + ABS(AVGC20 - AVGC50)

If the entire candle needs to be between the 20 and 50 period simple moving averages:

AVGC20 + AVGC50 - ABS(AVGC20 - AVGC50) <= 2 * L AND 2 * H <= AVGC20 + AVGC50 + ABS(AVGC20 - AVGC50)

The above formulas can be simplified if the 50 period simple moving average needs to be above the 20 period simple moving average as well:

Just the price becomes:

AVGC20 <= C AND C <= AVGC50

Just the body becomes:

2 * AVGC20 <= O + C - ABS(O - C) AND O + C + ABS(O - C) <= 2 * AVGC50

And the entire candle becomes:

AVGC20 <= L AND H <= AVGC50
