support for creating a bot to open a position after 3 consecutive candles of the same color occur

Hi everyone, I'm creating cBot code to open a trade after 3 consecutive candles of the same color are closed. During the testing phase I find that the operation is opened without respecting the main parameter. Can you help me?
