entry on break out

[ferret]

I am new to any type of coding! However I'm having a go yet dont seem to be able to get my strategy to enter when the price breaks a certain level. I.e sell 1 tick below the break level.
Can any one help a novice!!!

Hi Ferret,

Here is an example of breakout strategy. If you have any further questions or require additional assistance please let me know.

 function preMain() {
    setPriceStudy(true);
    setStudyTitle("BreakOut Strategy"); 

}

function main(BreakOut_Len) {
	var vHL = high() - low();
	var vVar = vHL * 0.25;
	var vAddVar = vVar * 0.35;
	var i = 0;


    if(BreakOut_Len == null)
        BreakOut_Len = 20;
    var i;
    var hh = 0;
    var ll = 0;
    
    for(i = - BreakOut_Len + 1; i < 0; i++) {
        if(i == - BreakOut_Len + 1){
            hh = high(i);
            ll = low(i);
        }
        else {
            hh = Math.max(hh, high(i));
            ll = Math.min(ll, low(i));
        }
    }
	if(high() > hh && !Strategy.isLong()){
		Strategy.doLong("Long", Strategy.MARKET, Strategy.NEXTBAR);
		drawShapeRelative(0, low() - vVar, Shape.UPARROW, "", Color.lime, null, "buyShp" + getValue("time"));
		drawTextRelative(-1, low() - (vVar + vAddVar), "Buy", Color.black, Color.lime, Text.BOLD | Text.ONTOP, null, null, "buyTxt" + getValue("time"));
	}
	if(low() < ll && !Strategy.isShort()){
		Strategy.doShort("Short", Strategy.MARKET, Strategy.NEXTBAR);
		drawShapeRelative(0, high() + vVar, Shape.DOWNARROW, "", Color.red, null, "sellShp" + getValue("time"));
		drawTextRelative(-1, high() + (vVar + vAddVar), "Sell", Color.black, Color.red, Text.BOTTOM | Text.BOLD | Text.ONTOP, null, null, "buyTxt" + getValue("time"));
	}

	return new Array(hh,ll);
}
