Hi Guys! My name is Matteo Taronna, I currently work as an analyst for Bybit! I need some of your help with this topic.

This is a small code that automatically puts 50 well traced OB in my chart, but I have a problem:

I want to put a trade with strategy.entry() when the candle sticks touch the OB in both direction, in the code down below, how you would modified it to efectively make the entry?

I`ve tried something that is in bold text but it didnt work well.

Thanks for your help team!

plotTextOB = input.bool(defval=true, title='Plot Text inside OB', group='Order Blocks', inline='OB sets')
bearboxcolor = input.color(defval=#a86161, title=Bearish OB Box, inline='customcolor', group=order Blocks)
bullboxcolor = input.color(defval=#004d40, title=Bullish OB Box, inline='customcolor', group=order Blocks)
showOBboxes = input(true, title=Show OB Boxes,group=Order Blocks)
adtransp = input.int(defval=65, title=Box Transparency, minval=1, maxval=100, group=Order Blocks)
adboxcount = input.int(defval=50, title=Maximum Box Displayed, minval=1, maxval=200, group=Order Blocks)

plotHVB = input.bool(defval=true, title='Plot HVB', group='High Volume Bar', tooltip='A candle where the average volume is higher than last few bars.')
hvbBullColor = input.color(defval=color.green, title='Bullish HVB Color', inline='Set Custom Color', group='High Volume Bar')
hvbBearColor = input.color(defval=color.red, title='Bearish HVB Color', inline='Set Custom Color', group='High Volume Bar')
hvbEMAPeriod = input.int(defval=12, minval=1, title='Volume EMA Period', group='High Volume Bar')
hvbMultiplier = input.float(defval=1.5, title='Volume Multiplier', minval=1, maxval=100, group='High Volume Bar')
