I face an issue when try to match some elements in a Pattern sequence.
Flink 1.11.1 version. Here is my case:

final StreamExecutionEnvironment env = EnvironmentProvider.getEnvironment();
DataStream<Model> inputStream = env.fromElements(
            Model.of(1, "A", "US"),
            Model.of(2, "B", "US"),
            Model.of(3, "C", "US"),
            Model.of(4, "A", "AU"),
            Model.of(5, "B", "AU"),
            Model.of(6, "C", "AU"),
          //Model.of(7, "D"),
            Model.of(8, "D", "AU"),
            Model.of(9, "A", "GB"),
            Model.of(10, "B", "GB"),
            Model.of(13, "D", "GB"),
            Model.of(11, "C", "GB"),
            Model.of(12, "D", "GB")


    ).assignTimestampsAndWatermarks(WatermarkStrategy.forMonotonousTimestamps())
            .forceNonParallel();

    Pattern<Model, Model> pattern = Pattern.<Model>begin("start",
AfterMatchSkipStrategy.skipToNext())
            .where(new IterativeCondition<Model>() {
                @Override
                public boolean filter(Model value, Context<Model> ctx)
throws Exception {
                    return value.getText().equalsIgnoreCase("A");
                }
            }).followedBy("second")
            .where(new IterativeCondition<Model>() {
                @Override
                public boolean filter(Model value, Context<Model> ctx)
throws Exception {

                    return value.getText().equalsIgnoreCase("B");
                }
            }).followedBy("third")
            .where(new IterativeCondition<Model>() {
                @Override
                public boolean filter(Model value, Context<Model> ctx)
throws Exception {

                    return value.getText().equalsIgnoreCase("C");
                }
            }).followedBy("fourth")
            .where(new IterativeCondition<Model>() {
                @Override
                public boolean filter(Model value, Context<Model> ctx)
throws Exception {
                    var  list =
StreamSupport.stream(ctx.getEventsForPattern("third").spliterator(),
false).collect(Collectors.toList());
                    var val =
list.get(0).getSymbol().equalsIgnoreCase(value.getSymbol());
                    return value.getText().equalsIgnoreCase("D") && val;
                }
            });


            PatternStream<Model> marketOpenPatternStream =
CEP.<Model>pattern(inputStream, pattern);

             SingleOutputStreamOperator<List<Model>> marketOpenOutput =
            marketOpenPatternStream
                    .process(new PatternProcessFunction<Model, List<Model>>() {
                        @Override
                        public void processMatch(Map<String,
List<Model>> match, Context ctx, Collector<List<Model>> out) throws
Exception {
                            System.out.println(match);
                            out.collect(new ArrayList(match.values()));
                        }
                    })

What I am trying to succeed is to match only patterns that have the
same symbol. If I use SimpleCondition with checks only about the text
of the Model(A, B,C..) without the symbol check in the last pattern,
the pattern sequence is fulfilled and I get the following output:

{start=[Model{id=1, text='A', symbol='US'}], second=[Model{id=2, text='B',
symbol='US'}], third=[Model{id=3, text='C', symbol='US'}],
fourth=[Model{id=8,text='D',symbol='AU'}]}

{start=[Model{id=4, text='A', symbol='AU'}], second=[Model{id=5,
text='B', symbol='AU'}], third=[Model{id=6, text='C', symbol='AU'}],
fourth=[Model{id=8, text='D', symbol='AU'}]}

{start=[Model{id=9, text='A', symbol='GB'}], second=[Model{id=10,
text='B', symbol='GB'}], third=[Model{id=11, text='C', symbol='GB'}],
fourth=[Model{id=12, text='D', symbol='GB'}]}

However I want to avoid the match of elements with id= 1(A),2(B),3(C) with
the element with id = 8(D). For this reason I put the symbol check with the
event matched in the previous pattern in the last condition so I dont get
match since they do not have the same symbol. But after applying the
condition, now I do not get any output. none of the elements match the
pattern. What I am missing? Could someone help?
