   MqlRates rates[];

   double closes[];

   int total_closes = CopyClose(_Symbol, timeframe, 0, 15, closes);
   
   int total_rates = CopyRates(_Symbol, timeframe,0,15,rates);
   if(total_rates < 1)
      return false;

   
   for(int i=0; i<total_rates; i++){
      if(rates[i].close > price)
         count_above++;
         Print(count_above);
      if(rates[i].close < price)
         count_below++;

If your program compiles without any error but doesn't do what is should use the debugger and control the relevant variables:
