TechniTrend: Advance Custom Candle Finder (CCF)🟦 Description:
The TechniTrend: Advanced Custom Candle Finder (CCF) is a versatile tool designed to help traders identify custom candlestick patterns using various configurable criteria. This indicator provides a flexible framework to filter and highlight specific candles based on volume, volatility, candle characteristics, and other important metrics. Below is a detailed explanation of each filter and its customization options:
🟦 Volume-Based Filters
🔸Volume Spike Filter:
Enable filtering based on volume spikes. Use the Volume Spike Multiplier to define what constitutes a significant increase in volume compared to the average. A spike indicates unusually high trading interest.
🔸Volume Range Filter:
Filter candles based on specific volume ranges. Set Minimum Volume and Maximum Volume thresholds to isolate candles with trading volumes within your desired boundaries.
🟦 Candle Body & Wick Filters
🔸Body Size Filter:
Filter candles based on the size of their body. A Body Size Multiplier determines what is considered a large body relative to historical averages.
🔸Body Percentage Filter:
Filter based on the proportion of the body to the entire candle size. Use the Body Percentage Threshold to highlight candles where the body makes up a certain percentage of the total candle range.
🔸Wick-to-Body Ratio Filter:
Identify candles with specific wick-to-body ratios. A higher Wick-to-Body Ratio can indicate indecision or reversals.
🟦 Volatility & Range Filters
🔸Volatility Filter:
Highlight candles based on price changes relative to volume. The Volatility Multiplier sets the threshold for what is considered a volatile candle.
🔸Candle Range Filter:
Filter based on the range (High - Low) of each candle. Use Minimum Candle Range and Maximum Candle Range to specify your desired candle size in points or pips.
🔸Short-Term and Long-Term Volatility Filters:
Analyze volatility over different periods. Enable Short-Term Volatility or Long-Term Volatility filters to compare recent volatility against historical averages, helping you detect sudden market shifts.
🟦 Candle Color & Open/Close Filters
🔸Candle Color Filter:
Filter based on the candle's color. Choose between Bullish (close > open) or Bearish (close < open) to focus on specific market sentiments.
🔸Open/Close Price Range Filter:
Filter based on the difference between the open and close prices. Use Minimum Open/Close Range and Maximum Open/Close Range to specify your acceptable range in price movements.
🟦 Core Functionality
The CCF indicator combines these filters to provide a final signal whenever a candle meets all the enabled criteria. By default, it highlights any qualifying candle directly on the chart and changes the background color for added visibility.
🟦 Key Features:
🔸Highly Customizable Filters: Adjust the parameters for each filter to tailor the indicator to your specific needs.
🔸Multiple Conditions: Combine several conditions to identify complex candlestick patterns.
🔸Real-Time Alerts: Receive instant notifications when a matching candle pattern is found based on your custom criteria.
🟦 How to Use:
🔸Enable the filters you wish to apply (e.g., Volume Spike, Candle Body Size, Volatility).
🔸Adjust the thresholds for each filter to fine-tune the pattern recognition criteria.
🔸Observe the chart to see visual cues for candles that match your specified conditions.
🟦 Notes:
🔸Ensure that you clearly understand each filter’s role. Over-filtering with very strict criteria may reduce the number of signals.
🔸This indicator is designed to be a customizable tool, not providing buy or sell recommendations.
🔸Use in combination with other analysis tools and indicators for the best results.

Engulfing BoxThe Engulfing Box indicator is a custom script designed to visually highlight and track bullish and bearish engulfing candlestick patterns on a price chart. These patterns are often used to identify potential reversal points, making them valuable for technical analysis. The script dynamically draws colored boxes around these patterns, helping users easily spot them in the price action.
Key Features:
Bullish Engulfing Pattern: When a candlestick fully engulfs the previous bearish candle (i.e., the close of the current candle is higher than the open of the previous candle, and the open is lower than the close of the previous candle), the script draws a green box around the bullish engulfing candle. This box is drawn from the open of the previous candle to the low of the previous candle.
Bearish Engulfing Pattern: When a candlestick fully engulfs the previous bullish candle (i.e., the close of the current candle is lower than the open of the previous candle, and the open is higher than the close of the previous candle), a red box is drawn around the bearish engulfing candle. This box is drawn from the open of the previous candle to the high of the previous candle.
Dynamic Box Management: Once an engulfing pattern is detected, a box is drawn with the following attributes:
Bullish Engulfing Box: Green, with a transparent background.
Bearish Engulfing Box: Red, with a transparent background.
The box will adjust its color to gray if the price moves past certain thresholds, indicating that the engulfing pattern may no longer be as relevant.
Max Pattern Tracking: The script limits the number of engulfing boxes tracked on the chart to prevent clutter. The maximum number of bullish and bearish engulfing patterns shown is customizable (set to 500 by default), and once this limit is exceeded, older boxes are deleted to maintain a clean chart.
Pattern Expiry: Boxes are deleted if price action moves beyond the pattern’s range, ensuring that outdated signals are removed. If the low price falls below the bottom of the bullish engulfing box, or the high price rises above the top of the bearish engulfing box, the respective box is removed. Additionally, if the low price moves below the top of the bullish box or the high price exceeds the bottom of the bearish box, the box's color is changed to a more neutral tone.
How it Works:
Pattern Detection: The script compares the current price data with the previous candlestick to detect the bullish or bearish engulfing patterns.
Box Creation: If a pattern is detected, a colored box is drawn around the candle to visually highlight the pattern.
Pattern Expiry and Cleanup: The script continuously monitors past boxes. If the price moves too far from the box’s range, the box is either deleted or altered to reflect the reduced significance of the pattern.
B ox Count Limit: To avoid clutter, the script ensures that no more than 500 bullish or bearish engulfing boxes are shown at any time.
Customization:
The number of previous bars to scan for engulfing patterns can be adjusted (maxBarsback).
The maximum number of patterns displayed at any time can be modified.

Price Action StrategyThe **Price Action Strategy** is a tool designed to capture potential market reversals by utilizing classic reversal candlestick patterns such as Hammer, Shooting Star, Doji, and Pin Bar near dinamic support and resistance levels.
***Note to moderators
- The moving average was removed from the strategy because it was not suitable for the strategy and not participating in the entry or exit criteria.
- The moving average length has been replaced/renamed by the support/resistance lenght.
- The bullish engulfing and bearish engulfing patterns were also removed because in practice they were not working as entry criteria, since the candle price invariably closes far from the support/resistance level even considering the sensitivity range. There was no change in the backtest results after removing these patterns.
### Key Elements of the Strategy
1. Support and Resistance Levels
- Support and resistance are pivotal price levels where the asset has previously struggled to move lower (support) or higher (resistance). These levels act as psychological barriers where buying interest (at support) or selling interest (at resistance) often increases, potentially causing price reversals.
- In this strategy, support is calculated as the lowest low and resistance as the highest high over a 16-period length. When the price nears these levels, it indicates possible zones for a reversal, and the strategy looks for specific candlestick patterns to confirm an entry.
2. Candlestick Patterns
- This strategy uses classic reversal patterns, including:
- **Hammer**: Indicates a buy signal, suggesting rejection of lower prices.
- **Shooting Star**: Suggests a sell signal, showing rejection of higher prices.
- **Doji**: Reflects indecision and potential reversal.
- **Pin Bar**: Represents price rejection with a long shadow, often signaling a reversal.
By combining these reversal patterns with the proximity to dinamic support or resistance levels, the strategy aims to capture potential reversal movements.
3. Sensitivity Level
- The sensitivity parameter adjusts the acceptable range (Default 0.018 = 1.8%) around support and resistance levels within which reversal patterns can trigger trades (i.e. the closing price of the candle must occur within the specified range defined by the sensitivity parameter). A higher sensitivity value expands this range, potentially leading to less accurate signals, as it may allow for more false positives.
4. Entry Criteria
- **Buy (Long)**: A Hammer, Doji, or Pin Bar pattern near support.
- **Sell (Short)**: A Shooting Star, Doji, or Pin Bar near resistance.
5. Exit criteria
- Take profit = 9.5%
- Stop loss = 16%
6. No Repainting
- The Price Action Strategy is not subject to repainting.
7. Position Sizing by Equity and risk management
- This strategy has a default configuration to operate with 35% of the equity. The stop loss is set to 16% from the entry price. This way, the strategy is putting at risk about 16% of 35% of equity, that is, around 5.6% of equity for each trade. The percentage of equity and stop loss can be adjusted by the user according to their risk management.
8. Backtest results
- This strategy was subjected to deep backtest and operations in replay mode on **1000000MOGUSDT.P**, with the inclusion of transaction fees at 0.12% and slipagge of 5 ticks, and the past results have shown consistent profitability. Past results are no guarantee of future results. The strategy's backtest results may even be due to overfitting with past data.
9. Chart Visualization
- Support and resistance levels are displayed as green (support) and red (resistance) lines.
- Only the candlestick pattern that generated the entry signal to triger the trade is identified and labeled on the chart. During the operation, the occurrence of new Doji, Pin Bar, Hammer and Shooting Star patterns will not be demonstrated on the chart, since the exit criteria are based on percentage take profit and stop loss.
Doji:
Pin Bar and Doji
Shooting Star and Doji

Hammers & star Patterns After a Trend
1. **Candlestick Patterns Detection:**
- **Hammers** and **Inverted Hammers** are specific candlestick patterns that can indicate potential reversals in the market.
- **Hammer**: A candle with a small body and a long lower wick, showing a possible reversal after a downtrend.
- **Inverted Hammer**: A candle with a small body and a long upper wick, indicating a possible reversal after an uptrend.
2. **Volume Consideration:**
- The script checks if these patterns occur with **high trading volume**. If the volume is significantly higher than the average volume over a certain period, the pattern is highlighted.
3. **Trend Detection:**
- The script looks for a significant trend before the pattern appears:
- **Downtrend**: A significant downward movement in price is required before a Hammer is considered.
- **Uptrend**: A significant upward movement is required before an Inverted Hammer is considered.
4. **Additional Patterns:**
- **Morning Star** and **Evening Star** patterns are also detected:
- **Morning Star**: A three-candle pattern where the first candle is a large bearish candle, followed by a small-bodied candle, and then a large bullish candle, indicating a potential reversal from downtrend to uptrend.
- **Evening Star**: The opposite pattern, signaling a potential reversal from uptrend to downtrend.
5. **Visual Indicators:**
- The script **plots arrows** and **labels** on the chart to show where these patterns occur:
- **Hammers** and **Inverted Hammers** are marked with triangle arrows.
- **Morning Stars** and **Evening Stars** are marked with labels.
In summary, this script helps traders identify key candlestick patterns that may signal potential reversals in price trends, with special emphasis on patterns that occur with high volume and after significant price movements.

FAQs
Why do my alerts sometimes not fire as soon as the candle closes?
This is a limitation with Pine Script's execution model. Indicators are calculated whenever a price or volume change occurs i.e. when a new trade happens. For illiquid or slow moving markets, there may be some time between when a candle closes and the next trade, leading to a delay in the alert triggering. The alert will trigger on the next tick of data on the chart.
Why can't I create more alerts?
TradingView has a limit on the number of active technical alerts you can have based on your membership tier. To configure more alerts, consider upgrading your TradingView plan to a higher tier. See a comparison of TradingView plans at www.tradingview.com
My alert only fired once, how can I get it to keep working?
When configuring the alert in the alert pop-up window, make sure you set "Trigger" to "Once Per Bar" and "Expiration" to "Open-ended alert".
Trend Pinbar PT49 by CuancuanIdea Behind:
Buying the short-term trend that shows a pin-bar candlestick pattern. Meant to be traded on a daily chart / higher timeframe.
To determine the short-term trend we use short EMA such as 8-16-30 and check the slope of each one, and definitely, the shorter one must be above the longer one for an uptrend. Vice versa for a downtrend.
To determine a pin-bar candlestick, I calculate that the body size (open to close) is at maximum a-third of the candle size (high to low). Besides that, I ensure that the close of the candle is above the shortest MA for bullish and below it for bearish.
As extra filters to reduce trade numbers:
1. Longer MA Filter = You can turn it off if you think the higher timeframe filter is unnecessary.
2. Slope Filter = To ensure the slope of the shorter MA is steeper rather than the mid-MA.
3. Size Filter = To check whether the overall candle size (high to low) is bigger than the ATR number. When the size filter is turned on, it removes small insignificant candles.
PS: Don't trade anything live unless you find it comfortable after backtesting it by yourself .

Boring Candles by BitcoinBailyBoring candlestick is a candlestick whose body is less than 50% of its total candlestick range, this candle is usually small in size.
This indicates that the price range between the open and close of this candle was relatively small, and that there was not a lot of volatility during that time period.
LNL Scalper ArrowsLNL Scalper Arrows
The indicator consist of various different types of candlestick patterns that are truly time tested by multiple veteran traders. These arrows are a combination of short-term scalping strategies taught by Linda Raschke & a trader that goes by name Quant Trade Edge. These strategies/patterns occur regularly within the markets. They offer high probability quick moves during the trending days. These four patterns are based on pure price action, no oscillators, no trend, no momentum indicators involved. Trend (ema) is there just as a simple trend gauge.
LNL Scalper Arrows were designed specifically for intra-day trading. Mostly useful for the futures but also stocks as well. These arrows can work anywhere between the fast-moving 512 or 1600 tick charts to a 1min, 2min and up to 5min or 10min charts.
Trend Gauge (Exponential Moving Average)
Nothing fancy just a classic EMA that can guide the direction of the short-term trend. I have added a custom coloring of the EMA that is based on a simple RSI filter. That should help to visualize the non-directional moments within the trend. Although the length is adjustable, for scalping it is better to focus on smaller periods such as 9, 13 or 20 or 34 but anything above 50 loses its purpose as a short-term trend gauge. Again, this is a scalping tool not a trend tool, you are not going to get rid of the fakeouts by increasing the period of the trend.
Tail Arrows (Eat the Tail Pattern)
Tail is a candlestick that is either a price rejection spike, or a flag continuation pattern on a lower time frame. A failed action. It is basically a candle with much bigger wick (shadow) of the candle than the actual body. Such candles are usually telling us about strong participation from the other side of the market. Eat the tail pattern occurs whenever the low of the Tail candle is immediately broken on a following candle "the tail is eaten alive". Such a breaks occurs in a most aggressive types of markets with a strong momentum. DO NOT try to trade this in a low volume or a ranging market. Tail Arrows are the most aggressive arrows & should be only used on the highest volume or a parabolic momentum markets.
Scalp Arrows (Scallop Pattern)
Known as Scallops or minor lows or highs, these patterns are the most common within the all scalper arrows. They occur regularly on 1min & 5min charts - basically everyday. Scallops provide the best possible risk to reward entry within the trend without the need of any indicators or oscillators. The Scallop Up 3 bar pattern consist of a high that is lower that the previous high but also low that is lower than the previous low. Scallop Up or a minor low triggers when the last high is broken, creating a three bar mountain or a peak within the 5 bar span.
Hoagie Arrows (Hoagie Pattern)
Hoagies occur way less often than any other scalping patterns. Hoagies represent two (or more) inside candles within the shadow of a first candle. Such a formation is creating a small compression or a range that sooner or later breaks out. The hoagie is triggered whenever the high or low of the shadow (first) candle is broken. The great thing about the hoagies is that they can work either way despite the trend direction. Although this indicator is coded for the 2 bar hoagies, there are no limitations on how much inside bars can hoagie include.
Umbrella Arrows (Umbrella Pattern)
Another really awesome 3 bar pattern that is really fun to trade. Umbrella occurs when the candle before the previous candle is a pin bar or a tail bar and the body of the previous candle is within the shadow or a wick of the candle before. The umbrella is triggered once the high or low of the previous bar is broken. Umbrellas are more frequent than Hoagies but occur much less than the Scallops.
Outside Bar Wedges (Outside Bar Pattern)
Pretty much self-explanatory candlestick pattern. Outside Bar is basically any bar that peaks outside of the both ends of the previous candle. So the range of the candle is higher & it looked beyond the high and beyond the low of the previous candle. These candles are signalizing the potenial momentum change. Ouside Bars usually occur at the tops or bottoms of the moves. I decided to add them because they can serve as a great addition to these scalping patterns.
Signal vs. SignalBreak Mode
The trigger can be viewed in two different ways:
1. Signal: Plots the trigger before the trigger bar, basically right when the pattern is formed but NOT YET triggered. The signal is triggered once the next candle break the high or low of the current candle.
2. SignalBrake: Plots the trigger after the break of the high or low of the actual pattern. It is basically a candle after the signal candle. (Signal is better for trading because it gives you time to prepare for the actual break of the high or low = the actual signal. SignalBrake is great for looking back in history only for the patterns that actually traded).
Pin Bar BTW Ratio
Pin Bar (Body-To-Wick) Ratio represents the size of the body of a pin bar candle for Eat the Tail and Umbrella patterns. Pin Bar BTW Ratio measures the ratio between the wick & the body of the candle. Ref. interval is 2.0 - 5.0 (ideal pin bar is 2.0 - 3.0 = the wick or a shadow is 2x - 3x bigger than the body of the candle)
ATR Stop & Target Labels
I also created three simple labels (tables) that can show you the ideal target & stop as well as the current ATR. Since LNL Scalper Arrows consist of high probability scalping patterns, a good rule of thumb to follow is to use a half of the current ATR as a target and a current ATR as a stop (or two times the target). So if the current 7 period ATR is 30 the target would be 15 pts. and a stop around 30 pts. With such a risk management you should aim for a win rate 70% or higher. Obviously you can adjust the risk management in the settings to your personal preference.
Low Range vs. High Range Markets
There are two major downsides with the Scalper Arrows:
1. You need volume and a volatility. These patterns really do struggle in ranging "boring" sideways action. It is absolutely crucial to recognize the current market environment and really stay cautions and (or completely out) in case the chop continues. Adding something like DMI can help you recognize the potential flat markets.
2. Not only do you need volume & momentum, you also need a decent range. This indicator works better on a rangy market such as NQ futures or YM. But are much tougher to trade on lower range markets such as some stocks or ZB futures or basically any other lower range market.
Hope it helps.
Hikkake Hunter 2.0This script serves as a successor to a previous script I wrote for identifying Hikkakes nearly two years ago.
The old version has been preserved here:
█ OVERVIEW
This script is a rework of an old script that identified the Hikkake candlestick pattern. While this pattern is not usually considered a part of the standard candlestick patterns set, I found a lot of value when finding a solution to identifying it. A Hikkake pattern is a 3-candle pattern where a middle candle is nested in between the range of the prior candle, and a candle that follows has a higher high and a higher low (bearish setup) or a lower high and a lower low (bullish setup). What makes this pattern unique is the "confirmation" status of the pattern; within 3 candles of this pattern's appearance, there must be a candle that closes above the high (bullish setup) or below the low (bearish setup) of the second candle. Additional flexibility has been added which allows the user to specify the number of candles (up to 5) that the pattern may have to confirm after its appearance.
█ CONCEPTS
This script will cover concepts mainly focusing on candlestick analysis, price analysis (with higher timeframes), and statistical analysis. I believe there is also educational value presented with the use of user-defined-types (UDTs) in accomplishing these concepts that I hope others will find useful.
Candlestick Analysis - Identification and confirmation of the patterns in the deprecated script were clunky and inefficient. While the previous script required the use of 6 candles to perform the confirmations of patterns (restricted solely to identifying patterns that confirmed in 3 candles or less), this script only requires 3 candles to identify and process patterns by utilizing a UDT representing a 'pattern object'. An object representing a pattern will be created when it has been identified, and fields within that object will be set for processing by the functions it is passed to. Pattern objects are held by a var array (values within the array persist between bars) and will be removed from this array once they have been confirmed or non-confirmed.
This is a significant deviation from the previous script's methods, as it prevents unnecessary re-evaluations of the confirmation status of patterns (i.e. Hikkakes confirmed on the first candle will no longer need to be checked for confirmations on the second or third; a pitfall of the deprecated version which required multiple booleans tracking prior confirmation statuses). This deviation is also what provides the flexibility in changing the number of candles that can pass before a pattern is deemed non-confirmed.
As multiple patterns can be confirmed simultaneously, this script uses another UDT representing a linked-list reduction of the pattern object used to process it. This liked-list object will then be used for Price Analysis.
Price Analysis - This script employs the use of a UDT which contains all the returns of confirmed patterns. The user specifies how many candles ahead of the confirmed pattern to calculate its return, as well as where this calculation begins. There are two settings: FROM APPEARANCE and FROM CONFIRMATION (default). Price differences are calculated from the open of the candle immediately following the candle which had confirmed the pattern to the close of the candle X candles ahead (default 10). ( SEE FEATURES )
Because of how Pine functions, this calculation necessitates a lookback on prior candles to identify when a pattern had been confirmed. This is accomplished with the following pseudo-code:
if not na(confirmed linked-list )
for all confirmed in list
GET MATRIX PLACEMENT
offset = FROM CONFIRMATION ? 0 : # of candles to confirm
openAtFind = open
percent return = ((close - openAtFind) / openAtFind) * 100
ADD percent return TO UDT IN MATRIX
All return UDTs are held in a matrix which breaks up these patterns into specific groups covered in the next section.
Higher Timeframes - This script makes a request.security call to a higher timeframe in order to identify a price range which breaks up these patterns into groups based on the 'partition' they had appeared in. The default values for this partitioning will break up the chart into three sections: upper, middle, and lower. The upper section represents the highest 20% of the yearly trading range that an asset has experienced. The lower section represents the trading range within a third (33%) of the yearly low. And the middle section represents the yearly high-low range between these two partitions.
The matrix containing all return UDTs will have these returns split up based on the number of candles required to confirm the pattern as well as the partition the pattern had appeared in. The underlying rationale is that patterns may perform better or worse at different parts of an asset's trading range.
Statistical Analysis - Once a pattern has been confirmed, the matrix containing all return UDTs will be queried to check if a 'returnArray' object has been created for that specific pattern. If not, one will be initialized and a confirmed linked-list object will be created that contains information pertinent to the matrix position of this object.
This matrix contains the returns of both the Bullish and Bearish Hikkake patterns, separated by the number of candles needed to confirm them, and by the partitions they had appeared in. For the standard 3 candles to confirm, this means the matrix will contain 18 elements (dependent on the number of candles allowed for confirmations; its size will range from 12 to 30).
When the required number of candles for Price Analysis passes, a percent return is calculated and added to the returnArray contained in the matrix at the location derived from the confirmed linked-list object's values. The return is added, and all values in the returnArray are updated using Pine's built in array.___ functions. This returnArray object contains the array of all returns, its size, its average, the median, the standard deviation of returns, and a separate 3-integer array which holds values that correspond to the types of returns experienced by this pattern (negative, neutral, and positive)*.
After a pattern has been confirmed, this script will place the partition and all of the aforementioned stats values (plus a 95% confidence interval of expected returns) related to that pattern onto the tooltip of the label that identifies it. This allows users to scroll over the label of a confirmed pattern to gauge its prior performance under specific conditions. The percent return of the specific pattern identified will later be placed onto the label tooltip as well. ( SEE LIMITATIONS )
The stats portion of this script also plays a significant role in how patterns are presented when using the Adaptive Coloring mode described in FEATURES .
*These values are incremented based on user-input related to what constitutes a 'negative' or 'positive' return. Default values would place any return by a pattern between -3% and 3% in the 'neutral' category, and values exceeding either end will be placed in the 'negative' or 'positive' categories.
█ FEATURES
This script contains numerous inputs for modifying its behavior and how patterns are presented/processed, separated into 5 groups.
Confirmation Setting - The most important input for this script's functioning. This input is a 'confirm=true' input and must be set by the user before the script is applied to the chart. It sets the number of candles that a pattern has to confirm once it has been identified.
Alert Settings - This group of booleans sets which types of alerts will fire during the scripts execution on the chart. If enabled, the four alerts will trigger when: a pattern has been identified, a pattern has been confirmed, a pattern has been non-confirmed, and show the return for that confirmed pattern in an alert. Because this script uses the 'alert' function and not 'alertcondition', these must be enabled before 'any alert() function call' is set in TradingView's 'alerts' settings.
Partition Settings - This group of inputs are responsible for creating (and viewing) the partitions that breaks the returns of the patterns identified up into their respective groups. The user may set the resolution to grab the range from, the length back of this resolution the partitions get their values from, the thresholds which breaks the partitions up into their groups, and modify the visibility (if they're shown, the colors, opacity) of these partitions.
Stats Settings - These inputs will drastically alter how patterns are presented and the resulting information derived from them after their appearance. Because of this section's importance, some of these inputs will be described in more detail.
P/L Sample Length - Defines the number of candles after the starting point to grab values from in the % return calculation for that pattern.
P/L Starting Point - Defines the starting point where the P/L calculation will take place. 'FROM APPEARANCE' will set the starting point at the candle immediately following the pattern's appearance. 'FROM CONFIRMATION' will place the starting point immediately following the candle which had confirmed the pattern. ( SEE LIMITATIONS )
Min Returns Needed - Sets how many times a specific pattern must appear (both by number of candles needed to confirm and by partition) before the statistics for that pattern are displayed onto the tooltip (and for gradient coloration in Adaptive Coloring mode).
Enable Adaptive Coloring - Changes the coloration of the patterns based on the bullish/bearishness of the specified Gradient Reference value of that pattern compared to the Return Tolerance values OR the minimum and maximum values of that specified Gradient Reference value contained in the matrix of all returns. This creates a color from a gradient using the user-specified colors and alters how many of the patterns may appear if prior performance is taken into account.
Gradient Reference - Defines which stats measure of returns will be used in the gradient color generation. The two settings are 'AVG' and 'MEDIAN'.
Hard Limit - This boolean sets whether the Return Tolerance values will not be replaced by values that exceed them from the matrix of returns in color gradient generation. This changes the scale of the gradient where any Gradient Reference values of patterns that exceed these tolerances will be colored the full bullish or bearish gradient colors, and anything in between them will be given a color from the gradient.
Visibility Settings - This last section includes all settings associated with the overall visibility of patterns found with this script. This includes the position of the labels and their colors (+ pattern colors without Adaptive Coloring being enabled), and showing patterns that were non-confirmed.
Most of these inputs in the script have these kinds of descriptions to what they do provided by their tooltips.
█ HOW TO USE
I attempted to make this script much easier to use in terms of analyzing the patterns and displaying the information to the user. The previous script would have the user go to the 'data window' side bar on TradingView to view the returns of a pattern after they had specified which pattern to analyze through the settings, needlessly convoluted. This aim at simplicity was achieved through the use of UDTs and specific code-design.
To use, simply apply the indicator to a chart, set the number of candles (between 2 and 5) for confirming this specific pattern and adjust the many settings described above at your leisure.
█ LIMITATIONS
Disclaimer - This is a tool created with the hopes of helping identify a specific pattern and provide an informative view about the performance of that pattern. Previous performance is not indicative of future results. None of this constitutes any form of financial advice, *use at your own risk*.
Statistical Analysis - This script assumes that all patterns will yield a NORMAL DISTRIBUTION regarding their returns which may not be reflective of reality. I personally have limited experience within the field of statistics apart from a few high school/college courses and make no guarantees that the calculation of the 95% confidence interval is correct. Please review the source code to verify for yourself that this interval calculation is correct (Function Name: f_DisplayStatsOnLabel).
P/L Starting Point - Because of when the object related to the confirmation status of a pattern is created (specifically the linked-list object) setting the 'P/L Starting Point' to 'FROM APPEARANCE' will yield the results of that P/L calculation at the same time as 'FROM CONFIRMATION'.

PinBar Detector [Mr_Zed]Pinbar Detector is a technical analysis tool designed to detect Pinbar patterns in financial markets. Pinbars are reversal patterns that indicate a potential change in trend.
This indicator is based on an existing Pinbar detector in MQ4/5 format, originally developed by "earnforex".
The PineScript version is written to work in TradingView, and can be applied to any chart to identify Pinbar formations. The indicator uses specific criteria to identify Pinbars, such as the length of the wick and the relationship between the wick and the body of the candlestick. By displaying the Pinbars on the chart, traders can make informed decisions about entering or exiting trades based on their analysis of the market's potential trend reversal.

Tweezer PatternsTweezer top and bottom, also known as tweezers, are reversal candlestick patterns
that signal a potential change in the price direction. Both formations consist of
two candles that occur at the end of a trend, which is in its dying stages.
The tweezer bottom candlestick pattern is a bullish reversal pattern that can be
spotted at the bottom of a downtrend. It consists of two candles, where the first
candle is in line with the bearish trend, while the second candle reflects more
bullish market sentiment as the price bursts higher, in the opposite trend.
The tweezer top candlestick pattern is of the same structure as the tweezer bottom,
except for the fact that it happens at the end of an uptrend, and therefore, it is a
bearish reversal pattern. The first candle is bullish, and it continues in the same
direction, while the second bearish candle indicates that the trend may be changing soon.
Both the bottom and top tweezers are only valid when they occur during uptrends and downtrends.
Their appearance during choppy trading conditions is practically meaningless, and it signals
the market indecision to move in either direction.

- This script to change bars colors.
counting（kojiro koshi's idea)This is an indicator that expresses the strength of a candlestick in numbers.
The criteria are as follows
Candlestick is bullish:+1,bearish:-1,（If the value is more than twice the ATR, the score is 2 and -2, respectively.)
Close is higher than the previous value: +1, lower: -1
High is higher than the previous value: +1, lower: -1
Low is higher than the previous value: +1, lower: -1

Doji Hunter█ OVERVIEW
This script is built to search for 8 different Doji candlestick patterns in markets and makes them appear on screen with bar coloring and creating color-coded labels/shapes. It will identify the following variants based upon user input for various rules to abide by:
Gapping Up
Gapping Down
Gravestone
Dragonfly
Long-Legged
Rickshaw Man
Northern (Doji in uptrend)
Southern (Doji in downtrend)
Note: for the remainder of this description, the types for inputs will be marked by italic text.
█ OPTIONS
This script features a wide range of options available to the user to modify how it functions. The first set of inputs dictate how the trend analysis is done with moving averages. The second and third sets of inputs dictate specific rules for how Doji candles are analyzed and the colors used for when they appear.
█ INPUTS (short)
1 — Moving Average Rules:
The Northern and Southern Doji variants require some trend analysis which will be done by Moving Averages. The inputs in this section change various things about the moving average(s) to be used. In the second section of inputs, there is one boolean option that will nullify the need for trend detection and consolidates the Northern and Southern Doji variants into one.
2/3 — Doji Rules and Colors:
The next two sections of inputs correspond to the various rules that dictate how various doji variants will be analyzed, as well as the colors that correspond to each variant. The colors will also apply to each of the labels/shapes used.
4 — Diagnostics:
The last boolean will allow the user to see extra detail with regards to how and when dojis are detected. Note: This is not a part of any prior section and is simply included as a last functional item to the list of all inputs.
An example of multiple labels being shown on screen for various types of Dojis (DJI 1D chart):
█ INPUTS (extended)
1 — Moving Average Rules:
This section consists of 10 different inputs specific to the rules on how the moving average functions for trend analysis.
"Trend Rule" ( string list) determines which Moving Average will be used for trend detection. It has 3 options: "MA 1", "MA 2", or "BOTH". The second input "Trend Source" determines which OHLC (or combination) value to use in comparison to either MA 1 or MA 2 (EX: Trend Rule -> "MA 1" and Trend Source -> "close": if close > MA 1 -> uptrend, downtrend otherwise). If "BOTH" is selected then "Trend Source" is ignored and added nuance in the script ensures that the shorter MA being above the longer MA yields an uptrend (downtrend otherwise).
The next 8 inputs focus on 4 different parts of both MA 1 and 2.
Length ( integer(s) )
Color
Switch between SMA/EMA ( boolean(s) )
Source for MA
Note: Additional attention to detail has been made here as trend direction is ignored if "BOTH" is selected for the MA Rules and the lengths of both Moving Averages are set to be the same.
2/3 — Doji Rules and Colors:
The next two sections include 19 inputs that are related to how this script will analyze and identify the different variants of Doji candles.
"Identify Pattern On Close" ( boolean ) modifies which candles are to be used for determining when Doji candles are recognized. This changes an offset used for historical reference on some global variables which will force the script to only identify patterns after the current candle has closed.
"Doji Body Tolerance" ( float ) tells the script the maximum % the candle body may be of the high-low range to be considered a Doji candle.
"Doji Wick Sample" ( integer ) defines how many prior candles to sample from in calculating the current average upper and lower wick sizes.
"Simplify Northern/Southern Dojis" ( boolean ) makes this script ignore trend direction for Doji detection and consolidates Northern and Southern Dojis into being recognized as the same. This has an added effect of removing the plotted moving averages from the screen.
"Northern/Southern Display" ( string list ) that has multiple options for how Northern and Southern Dojis will be displayed on screen. Because of how labels may be extremely taxing on TradingView's servers to display, the default setting is "shapes" where Northern and Southern (N/S) Dojis will be marked with a colored triangle at the top of the candle. If "Simplify Northern/Southern Dojis" is true, all N/S Dojis will be marked with an x-cross instead. Other options include "labels" which enables the use of labels accompanied by their respective tooltip and color, or "none" where N/S Dojis will be only noticeable by their changed barcolor.
"Allow Gravestone/Dragonfly Shadows" ( boolean ) allows a bit of additional nuance to the definition of Gravestone or Dragonfly Dojis with small shadows.
"Gravestone/Dragonfly Shadow Tolerance" ( float ) defines the maximum % that the lower wick/upper wick (respectively) may be relative to the high-low range for Gravestone or Dragonfly Dojis to still be considered valid.
"Doji Long Wick Setting" ( string list) is a list of settings for three different ways of confirming if a Doji is Long-Legged. The settings are "one", "two", and "average". These define how many wick lengths of a candle need to exceed the calculated average wick lengths (EX: "both" -> upper wick length > upper wick average and lower wick length > lower wick average). The "average" setting will combine the lengths of both wicks and both prior wick averages, divide both of these sums by 2 and compare them instead.
"Doji Long Wick Tolerance" ( float ) defines how large compared to the averages that wick lengths need to be in order for them to be considered "Long-Legged" (EX: 1.50 -> upper/lower wick needs to exceed 150% the average of previous upper/lower wicks).
"Rickshaw Man Body Placement Tolerance" ( float ) defines how close to the high-low range's midpoint the candle body's midpoint needs to be in order for it to be considered a Rickshaw Man Doji candle instead.
The remaining 9 inputs define the colors to use for differentiating between all Doji variants this script will recognize.
█ USAGE
My hope for this script is that users find this easy to use/understand and will tinker with the input values to better identify Doji candlesticks across a wide range of markets.
Suggestions for changes in the future are welcome.
ConditionZeroThis study is a proof of concept analysis of situations that can lead to divide with zero or divide by zero conditions. Such situations can lead to mathematical errors, and can increase the potential for false alerts.
One common formula that is prone to this situation is:
pct=(high-close)/(high-low)
This is used to calculate percentage change of a candlestick.
Common outcomes are 0/0, 0/x, x/0, where x is a non zero value.
Visualizing this situation allows for more robust script development and deployment.
There are no user configurations.
pipe_finder. Reversal Indicator for Pipe Top & Bottom Patterns.Simple indicator to find pipe bottom and top patterns.
Definition:
- Pipe Bottom:
- Positive Difference from Open and Close is greater than the average thickness of the last "x" candles multiplied by sensitivity "y"
- The previous candle is red and the current candle is green
- Trend Definition - (Trend for EMA length 'z" has a slope less than 0 or pointed downwards)
- The average of the current and previous candle's volume is greater than the average volume for the last "n" candles.
- Pipe Top:
- Positive Difference from Open and Close is greater than the average thickness of the last "x" candles multiplied by sensitivity "y"
- The previous candle is green and the current candle is red
- Trend Definition - (Trend for EMA length 'z" has a slope greater than 0 or pointed upwards)
- The average of the current and previous candle's volume is greater than the average volume for the last "n" candles.
Settings:
Sensitivity: How thick do the pipe candles have to be? (Greater sensitivity = more alerts)
Candle Thickness Average Period: The number of past candles used for measuring the average body size of candlestick.
Filter EMA Length: Length of the EMA used to filter between bull trends and bear trends.
Volume EMA Length: Length of the volume EMA.
Vector Sniper What this script does
This indicator highlights high‑energy “vector” candles and marks optional Absolute Reversal candles (possible bottoms/tops) based on wick rejection, structure, and volume. It is designed for visual context, not automatic trade entries.
How it works (core logic)
The script combines volatility, volume, and price‑structure filters:
Vector candles: Require strong candle body, high volatility (true range Z‑score), high volume (volume Z‑score), and directional delta imbalance.
Structure filters: Optional break‑of‑structure and trap detection help remove noise.
Pre‑signals: A scoring system tracks early conditions (volume, imbalance, structure proximity, and EMA/VWAP alignment) and requires persistence across recent bars.
HTF confluence (optional): Uses higher‑timeframe EMA alignment with no lookahead bias.
Absolute Reversal candles
These are designed to mark potential local tops/bottoms and require:
Long wick rejection
Small body size
Strong close back into the range
Local structural extreme
Above‑average volume
Optional EMA trend bias (to confirm exhaustion)
How to use it
Use vector candles to spot high‑momentum activity.
Use pre‑signals as early warnings before vectors appear.
Use Absolute Reversal candles for potential turning points at extremes.
Adjust thresholds per timeframe and instrument.
Notes
Designed for standard candlesticks (not Heikin Ashi / Renko / Kagi / P&F).
No performance claims or guarantees.
HTF data uses lookahead_off to avoid repainting.
Crypto Professional Suite V2.0 [R2D2]Here is the complete professional documentation and strategy guide for your Crypto Pro Suite indicator. This guide is designed to help you install the tool correctly, understand its features, and utilize it to maximize your trading returns.
Crypto Pro Suite: The Professional Crypto Trader's All-In-One Toolkit
1. Introduction
The Crypto Pro Suite is a high-performance TradingView indicator designed to consolidate the five most critical technical analysis tools into a single, clean overlay.
Instead of cluttering your screen with multiple sub-charts (panes), this suite integrates Moving Averages, Bollinger Bands, and Fibonacci Levels directly onto the price action. It transforms "oscillator" data (RSI and MACD) into actionable Buy/Sell signals on your candles and a real-time Status Dashboard.
Key Features:
Zero Clutter: No bottom panes required; maximizes screen real estate for price analysis.
Real-Time Dashboard: Instant readout of Trend, RSI status, and MACD momentum.
Dynamic Overlay: Indicators move fluidly with your candles.
2. Installation Instructions
Follow these steps precisely to ensure the "Overlay" feature functions correctly.
Clean Slate: If you have any previous version of this script on your chart, remove it now (click the 'X' next to the indicator name).
Open Editor: Click the Pine Editor tab at the bottom of your TradingView screen.
Paste Code: Delete any existing text and paste the Final Polished Script provided in the previous response.
Save & Add: Click Save, then click Add to chart.
Note: By adding it fresh, TradingView forces the script to lock onto the price candles rather than a separate pane.
Verify: You should see colored lines (MAs, Bollinger Bands) directly on top of your candlesticks and a Dashboard in the top right.
3. Using the Script: Settings & Customization
Access the settings by clicking the Gear Icon next to the indicator name.
Dashboard: You can toggle the info panel On/Off or change its size (Tiny to Large) to fit your screen resolution.
Toggle Control: Each of the 5 indicators has a "Show" checkbox. You can turn off noise (e.g., hide Bollinger Bands) when you only want to focus on Trend (MAs).
Inputs:
MAs: Defaults are 50/200 (Classic Golden Cross setup).
RSI: Default is 14 length, 70/30 limits.
Fibs: Default lookback is 200 bars. Increase this number to find Support/Resistance over a longer timeframe.
4. Maximizing Returns: Strategy & Examples
To maximize returns, professionals do not use indicators in isolation. They look for Confluence—where multiple indicators signal the same direction simultaneously.
A. Moving Averages (Trend Filter)
The Setup: The script plots a Fast MA (Yellow) and Slow MA (Blue).
Strategy:
Golden Cross (Buy): When the Yellow line crosses above the Blue line. This signals the start of a long-term bull trend.
Death Cross (Sell): When the Yellow line crosses below the Blue line.
Pro Tip: Never go long (Buy) if price is significantly below the Blue (Slow) MA.
B. Relative Strength Index (RSI)
The Setup: Instead of a line graph, you will see labels on the candles: "RSI Buy" (Green) or "RSI Sell" (Red).
Strategy:
Mean Reversion: If you see an "RSI Sell" label, the asset is Overbought. This is often a signal to take profit, not necessarily to short.
The Dip Buy: Look for an "RSI Buy" label occurring during a general uptrend (price above Slow MA). This indicates a healthy pullback that is ready to bounce.
C. MACD (Momentum)
The Setup: Green Triangles (Buy) and Red Triangles (Sell) appear above/below candles.
Strategy:
Trend Confirmation: Use MACD to confirm the Moving Average. If price crosses above the MA and you get a Green MACD Triangle, the breakout has high momentum and is likely to succeed.
Exit Signal: If you are in a Long trade and see a Red MACD Triangle, momentum is fading. Consider tightening your stop-loss.
D. Bollinger Bands (Volatility)
The Setup: A shaded teal channel surrounding the price.
Strategy:
The Squeeze: When the bands get very narrow, a massive move is coming. Wait for the breakout.
Walking the Bands: In a strong crypto bull run, price will hug the Upper Band. If price closes outside the band and then immediately closes inside it, it is a reversal signal (Sell).
E. Fibonacci Retracement (Support/Resistance)
The Setup: Dynamic horizontal lines (0%, 23.6%, 38.2%, 50%, 61.8%, 100%) based on recent highs/lows.
Strategy:
The Golden Pocket: The most powerful buy zone in crypto is between the 0.5 and 0.618 lines.
Execution: If price falls to the 0.618 line and you see an "RSI Buy" or MACD Green Triangle appear at that exact level, this is a high-probability entry.
5. The "Perfect Trade" Example
Putting it all together for maximum profit.
Context: The Dashboard says "MA Trend: Bullish."
Trigger: Price pulls back down and touches the 0.618 Fibonacci line.
Confirmation 1: Price is also touching the Lower Bollinger Band (acting as dynamic support).
Confirmation 2: An "RSI Buy" label appears on the candle.
Action: BUY.
Stop Loss: Place just below the 100% Fib line.
Take Profit: Sell half at the 0% Fib line (recent high) and let the rest ride.
Bear & Bull Builder // visual strategy builderAre you a trend follower?
Trend following systems have been a cornerstone of trading since the first candlestick charts were invented in 18th-century Japan by Munehisa Homma (or Honma), a legendary rice merchant who used them to analyze market sentiment and predict price movements. Since then, legendary traders like Richard Dennis and Dr. David Paul have used technical analysis—the study of turning points and trends of candlestick charts—to develop an edge and strategy for trading equity, commodity, and forex markets.
How to Utilize the Bear & Bull Builder
This script is a way to pick and choose technical methods like SMAs and EMAs to define trend exits and entries. Additionally, you can specify an ATR (Average True Range) calculated stop loss based on your individual strategy and trading plan. Within the settings panel, you can set up this script to display only Long Position values, zones, and levels—or configure it for shorts, or both.
What Makes This Original
Unlike most trend-following indicators that lock you into a single approach, this script lets you combine different indicator types (RSI, WaveTrend, CCI, EMA, SMA) across three separate trend timeframes. The originality comes from the flexibility: you can test whether momentum-based trends (like RSI) work better than moving averages for your timeframe, or experiment with mixing them together. The script also bridges the gap between manual trading and automation by providing visual position values and fill zones that show exactly where signals generate versus where orders execute—critical information most scripts ignore.
Getting Started
For this quick and easy setup example, I built a strategy that is long-only, displays only long positional data and values, and uses a 21 & 55 period exponential moving average for the short and medium-term trend in addition to an 89 period simple moving average for my longer-term outlook. I have set my ATR-based multiplier to 0.75, and have left the fill zone display turned on to help visualize when to set up the built-in alerts for automating my strategy. I have made this the default settings of the script.
Positional Values
GREEN NUMBERS → Entry signal price
YELLOW NUMBERS → Stop loss price
BLUE NUMBERS → Exit signal price
IMPORTANT
I cannot describe how useful it is to use TradingView's built-in Long and Short position tools! The whole reason for this script is that it is as manually friendly as it is automated—especially for backtesting. You can use the long position tool to measure exact profits and losses on individual trades for the strategies you build. This can really help you see clearly if you have built a system with positive expectancy.
Tables
1. Settings Display Table
Displays the trend types that are configurable in the settings panel. Shows if positional values for longs and shorts are currently displayed.
2. Back testing Table
Displays the total amount of long and short entry signals since the first bar of the chart. Additionally, it displays the average amount of bars per trade (time in trade).
Alerts & Automation
There are 4 built-in alerts for automating your strategy to an external server:
1.Long Entries
2.Long Exits
3.Short Entries
4.Short Exits
Since this script uses confirmed bar states for alert generation (to avoid repainting), all alerts and displayed position values (the green, yellow, and blue numbers) will be sent on the closing price. Each alert has a placeholder preset for further customization.
Technical Details
How the trend detection works:
Bullish state triggers when close > all three selected trends
Bearish state triggers when close < all three selected trends
Uses barstate.isconfirmed to prevent repainting
Stop loss calculation:
Long stops: highest_trend - (ATR × multiplier)
Short stops: lowest_trend + (ATR × multiplier)
ATR period is fixed at 20 bars, multiplier is user-adjustable
Entry placement logic:
Long entries execute at the highest value among the three selected trends
Short entries execute at the lowest value among the three selected trends
This ensures entries occur near the support/resistance created by the trend lines
Why calculate all indicators upfront:
The script calculates all five indicator types (EMA, SMA, RSI, CCI, WaveTrend) for all three trend lengths on every bar, then selectively uses the ones you choose in settings. This prevents Pine Script consistency warnings while maintaining flexibility.
Pivot Edge ProOverview
Smart Pivot Analytics is a highly accurate technical analysis tool designed to identify and validate significant price levels. Unlike standard pivot indicators that only mark recent highs, this tool backtests each identified pivot against thousands of historical candlesticks to calculate its real-world “success rate.”
Key Features
Historical Backtesting: The indicator scans up to 4,900 historical columns to find every instance where price interacted with a specific pivot level.
Strength Score (%): Each level is assigned a percentage score based on its reversal rate. It calculates how many times the price has successfully reached and rejected the level, providing a statistical “hit rate.”
Dynamic Hit Counter: Displays the exact number of times a level has been tested (hit), helping traders distinguish between new levels and established “old” levels.
Smart Filtering: To keep the chart clean, the indicator automatically filters out weak levels and prevents “clutter” by merging levels that are too close together.
Infinite Left Projection: Lines extend left to infinity, allowing traders to see the historical significance of a level across the entire price history at a glance.
How to Trade with It
Red Levels (High Power > 75%): These are “Top Reaction Zones”. Expect a strong price rejection or significant breakout when these levels are tested.
Orange Levels (Medium Power): Suitable for profit targets or as secondary confirmation for entering a trade.
Encounter: Use these levels in conjunction with your existing strategy. When a high power pivot aligns with your entry signal, the probability of a successful trade increases significantly.
Technical Parameters
Lookback Period: Defines how far back in history the script calculates power.
Touch Radius: The "sensitivity" of the level (how close the price has to get to be considered a "hit").
Minimum Strength: A filter to show only the most reliable levels.
Improved Candle Strategy (without daily squared)# Candle Pattern Trading Strategy
## Core Logic
Analyzes the last 5 candlesticks to identify "close at high" and "close at low" patterns, generating long/short signals.
## Trading Conditions
- **Long**: ≥2 bars closed at high in past 5 bars + current bar closes at high → Open long
- **Short**: ≥2 bars closed at low in past 5 bars + current bar closes at low → Open short
- **Filter**: If ≥3 doji patterns detected, skip trading
## Risk Management
- Stop Loss: Based on entry bar's high/low
- Take Profit: Risk × 2x multiplier
- Cooldown: No trading for 2 bars after entry
- Session Filter: No trading for first 5 bars after market open
## Configurable Parameters
- Lookback period, doji threshold, close proximity ratio, TP/SL ratio, cooldown bars, etc.
**Use Cases**: 1-minute and higher timeframes on stocks/futures
