Hi,

Try this:

using System;
using System.Linq;
using cAlgo.API;
using cAlgo.API.Indicators;
using cAlgo.API.Internals;
using cAlgo.Indicators;

namespace cAlgo.Robots
{
    [Robot(TimeZone = TimeZones.UTC, AccessRights = AccessRights.None)]
    public class NewcBot : Robot
    {
        [Parameter("Fractal Period", DefaultValue = 5)]
        public int _period { get; set; }

        [Parameter("Volume", DefaultValue = 1000)]
        public double FirstVolume { get; set; }

        private Fractals _fractal;

        protected override void OnStart()
        {
            _fractal = Indicators.Fractals(_period);
        }

        protected override void OnBar()
        {
            if (double.IsNaN(_fractal.UpFractal.Last(1)) == false)
            {
                foreach (var position in Positions)
                {
                    if (position.SymbolName == SymbolName && position.Label == "Fractal")
                        ClosePosition(position);
                }
                ExecuteMarketOrder(TradeType.Sell, SymbolName, FirstVolume, "Fractal", null, null, null, false);
            }

            if (double.IsNaN(_fractal.DownFractal.Last(1)) == false)
            {
                foreach (var position in Positions)
                {
                    if (position.SymbolName == SymbolName && position.Label == "Fractal")
                        ClosePosition(position);
                }
                ExecuteMarketOrder(TradeType.Buy, SymbolName, FirstVolume, "Fractal", null, null, null, false);
            }
        }
    }
}

Thank you for replying. However, it does not work, and it gives the following result.

Hi cTraderX,

Please note that Fractals indicator is a redrawing indicator. Fractals do not appear immediately but only some candles after. So you cannot expect trades to be placed on the bar immediately after the fractals.

How do you determine which arrow was drawn last? I am trying to use the fractals indicator within a bot and I need the latest arrow that was drawn? I seem to be able to get the last up arrow and the last arrow but I have no way of determining which arrow was drawn last or a way of matching an arrow to a bar
