What does OHLC4 measure?
A single, steady price for the candle that uses all four points — the smoothest of the price averages.
How is OHLC4 calculated?
Add the open, high, low and close, and divide by four.
Written by reading the engine’s real computation, not a textbook — where the two differ, the page describes what actually runs.
How do I use OHLC4 in a bot?
In the builder, add an indicator of type ohlc4. Its value becomes an operand you can compare in any entry or exit rule. The engine grades the whole rule honestly: real fills, no look-ahead, half the history held back.
