My codes keep detect all candles with wick on top, how to make it detect only the candle without wick on top?

Inserted Code
bool cond=close>open && high>close && high-close>open-low && high-close==0;

High>Close and also High-Close == 0 ?? << Wonder how that would work

Here is a suggestion:

  1. high - close | won't always exactly equal zero when working with floating point numbers
  2. close>open | this is redundant because condition 1 is the close is at the high
  3. high>close | high will always be >= to close and open so that part is redundant
  4. high-close>open-low | this operator is backwards and also redundant if you're spotting candles that close at the high.

Inserted Code
bool cond = NormalizeDouble(fabs(high - close), _Digits) < _Point;
