In the conditions tab you can make a rule with an external symbol being or crossing above or below a value. Is there a way to make a rule with an external symbol rising or falling a certain percentage amount or a consecutive number of bars?

We already have the latter condition available in Community Rules:

* External Symbol Price decreases a consecutive number of bars
* External Symbol Price increases a consecutive number of bars

As to external symbol rising/falling a certain percentage, it'd be good to have it too so I'll add it soon.

The requested rules have been added to Community Rules:

* External Symbol Price is higher by X% than it was a number of bars ago
* External Symbol Price is lower by X% than it was a number of bars ago

I installed Community Rules. When running a strategy now with an external symbol rule I always get this error message with each symbol of the data set I'm using:

Error processing symbol WDC Der Objektverweis wurde nicht auf eine Objektinstanz festgelegt.
