New to Backtesting.. Need help.

[artlu]

I am trying to do some simple backtest code using the E-Mini. What I want to do is something like this:
if (bar(-3)=downbar & bar(-2)=upbar & bar(-1)=upbar and bar(-1).high>bar(-2).high) then go long on current bar with a stoplimit of bar(-2).high
if ordernot filled on current bar, cancel.
then, if order filled. Set exit limit @ enter price + 1.00 and set stop-limit at enter - 2.5..

This is what I have done so far, but it does not record any trades in the strategy analyzer...

if(close(-4)>close(-3) && (close(-3)<close(-2)) && close(-2)<close(-3) && Strategy.isInTrade()==false && close(-1)<close(-2)
&& high(-2)<high(-1))
{
var longenter = high(-1);
Strategy.doLong("Forward Momentum",Strategy.LIMIT, Strategy.THISBAR, null, longenter);
}
if(Strategy.isInTrade()==true && Strategy.isLong() == true)
{
Strategy.setStop(longenter-2.5);
Strategy.doSell("Getting out at profit", Strategy.LIMIT,Strategy.THISBAR, null, (longenter+1.00));
}

Any help would be great...

Some fixes made

Didn't have lots of time to check all my solution and your logic, but you had some mutually exclusive code which would never execute:
(close(-3)<close(-2)) && close(-2)<close(-3)

I think I dropped the close( 1 vs 2)
check the null in doSell line

This will at least get you going, 2 links for coding samples

Believe me, code structure is important as logic can get contorted quickly as more ideas are added. Adding a varying trailing stop is something to look into.
