One way to do it is you need to keep track of your engulfing candles. You might want to use something like two Dictionary<int,double>() objects (one for bull candles and one for bear candles) where the key is the "bar's index" and the value is the high/low of the price.

On every new bar:

1) check every value in the bullish dictionary

2) if current price > the price of an entry in the dictionary (each value), a) delete the indicator icon at the specified bar (the key value) and b) delete the key/value pair from the dictionary as you know you don't have to check it ever again.

3) repeat steps 1-2 above for the bearish dictionary

4) if the previous bar is a bullish engulfing candle add the bar's index as the "key" to the bullish dictionary with the high price as the "value"

5) if the previous bar is a bearish engulfing candle add the bar's index as the "key" to the bearish dictionary with the low price as the "value"
