Ensure that you are within a function that has candle data passed into it.

Code:
function check(candle) {}

Then you can use candle.high, candle.low as regular variables.

Code:
console.log(`Candle High = ${candle.high}`);

etc

Thank you for this Gryphon. would i use lastCandle to call on the data? ive been looking at arrays but cant get it to return the candle data juts returns a 0

Oh, missed that bit. In init, create a last candle var.

Code:
this.lastCandle={};

Then at the end of the check function update this:

Code:
this.lastCandle = candle

If you'd get errors from an undefined last candle, you can set a first run check and for the very first run set lastCandle to candle before it's checked.
