Hi Is there a way to use candlestick indicators to know if it GOES BEYOND Bollinger Bands?
Currently from what I know, the candlestick object returns 1 if bearish and -1 if bullish. But is there a way to know its current value so that I could use greater than to use it against bands?

Hi Phillip Espina
Please check out the docs, under Indicators section. There is a reference table with all indicators.
Regardless, you can use the current price of the security to determine whether it is greater or less than the bands.
