Buy over the high(-1)

[principiante1]

Good afternoon.
I'm trying to build my personal efs.
I attached here.
The problem is that I can't to insert in the formula wizard this condition: if all the conditions required will be satisfied, the trading system will go long only over the high(-1) + 1 (point).
Now, as you can see, the actually strategy in my efs is: MARKET-THIS BAR, and in backtest the system take for the calculation the open price ().
Can someone help me please?
Thank you

The reason the back test is using the Open as the entry price is because you are using Strategy.MARKET.
To set a specific entry price you need to use either the Strategy.STOP or Strategy.LIMIT methods and set the price to high(-1) + whatever point value you wish to add.
You may want to review the Back Testing Tutorials 1-3 which are provided in the Help Guides and Tutorials-> Beginner Tutorials folder of the EFS KnowledgeBase and that explain the required logic in detail (together with examples)
Also try running a search in these forums for either Strategy.STOP or Strategy.LIMIT as there are several examples posted.
