OK, here is a simplified version that you can add to:
First, let's be clear on your condition. As I understand, you want to buy
when have 4 consecutive (I assume) down histogram bars followed by an up
histogram bar plus MACD() > 0 and RSI() > 30. If so, cut and paste the
following in Formula Editor, click Analysis, and Scan.
x = macd();
y = signal();
hist = x - y;
z = hist < ref(hist, -1);
buy = sum(z, 5) == 4 and hist > ref(hist, -1) and macd() > 0 and rsi() > 30;
If you want to see the results graphically add the following and plot to see
the histogram with buy signals:
color = iif(hist > ref(hist, -1), colorbrightgreen, colorred);
plot(hist, "", color, stylehistogram|stylenolabel);
plotshapes(shapesmallcircle * buy, coloryellow, 0, z);

Hi Wavemechanic,
Thank you for your reply.
I know nothing in programming to know where to put it :(

Just add something like this properly including your conditions and
then scan:
Buy = iif(sum(hist > histprev, 5) == 4 and ref(hist < histprev,
-1), 1, 0);
