Post subject:  How to set the Candle Size

Hello Forum Members

I'm a newbie and went trought the tutorials and the videos.
Could already build some simple strategies. Visual JForex is really cool.

But I have a problem to which I can not find the answer..

Question:

How can I set the size of the candle?
For example: I want Visual JForex to execute a Buy Order on every Green Candle with a lower Tail and no nose.

So that would be going long on every bullish tailed Bar or Pin Bar.
So far I could create a Strategy. (See attachment)

But I would also be able to set the Minimum and Maximum Body Size of this Candle. And the Size of the Tail.
How can I set those Pip Values for this Candle?

Let's say Green Candle with a Candle Body of Minimum 1 Pip and Maximum 3 Pips and a lower Tail of Min. 5 Pips and Max. 15 Pips.
Or any other Pip Value...

There must be a way to do that.

Thank you so much for your help!


Oli :)
