Thanks for the answer. I love you.

This solved my problem.

I have another question in this context, see if you can help me.

I need this calculation below to be performed only once. I don't want this account running all the time.

That is, every time I open a position, I do this calculation and it is used as a variable in the program, and is no longer recalculated.

var cbodycandlePrevious = pos.TradeType == TradeType.Buy ?
                            ((Bars.Last(1).Open - Bars.Last(1).Close) / Symbol.PipSize)
                            : ((Bars.Last(1).Close - Bars.Last(1).Open) / Symbol.PipSize);
