Get TP from Risk calculated over last 5 Bars

[rudy 1]

Hello everyone First question I have here, but just wanted to say thank you to everyone for answering questions on the forums, I have learnt soooo much just from previous replies

I am busy creating an EA that bases its TP on risk calculated from the previous 5 bars. The SL is calculate from the trigger bar(candle position 1) so thats not a problem, but the TP(for a sell) is calculated from the high of the trigger candle +3 pips minus the low of the previous 5 candles -3 pips.

I have created a variable and have used the formula block to calculate the value, but it doesnt seem to executing correctly when I run back tests.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

@rudy-1 This formula result is not a pip number, its raw price value. Set your SL mode to Custom (price fraction).
