Because Wicks Dont Lie
"Because Wicks Don't Lie" is a specialized indicator designed to assist traders in identifying and visualizing significant candle wicks on any timeframe. Wicks, often referred to as Liquidity Targets, are areas that almost always get filled by price at some point. They can help map out the trajectory of price movement, acting as a magnet, drawing the price towards them. Recognizing these wicks can provide invaluable insights into potential trading opportunities and market sentiment.
We are looking for Candles with LONG Wick and TINY Candle Body! Only those types of Wicks have (according to my experience and backtesting) a 100% chance to get filled in the future.
Features:
Wick Visualization:
The script highlights significant bullish (blue) and bearish (red) wicks that meet specific criteria, helping you quickly spot potential trading opportunities.
VWAP Bands for Filtering Extremes:
The VWAP bands are incorporated to filter out wicks created at extreme price points. By ensuring that wicks are within a user-defined percentage of the VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price), traders can avoid targeting extreme wicks that might take a longer time to get filled, thus enhancing the efficacy of strategies that trade towards wicks.
Alerts:
Traders can set alerts for when a significant bullish or bearish wick is detected, ensuring they never miss potential setups.
Usage:
Once applied to your chart, the script will automatically scan for significant wicks and display them with blue (bullish) and red (bearish) markers. By adjusting the script settings, users can customize the VWAP band percentage to fine-tune the filtering of extreme wicks.
Conclusion:
Wicks often contain valuable information about market sentiment, rejection of price levels, and potential future price direction. By acting as liquidity targets, they serve as indications of where the price is likely to move. "Because Wicks Don't Lie" simplifies the process of identifying these crucial candle formations and, with the inclusion of the VWAP bands, ensures that traders can prioritize the most actionable wicks while avoiding extreme outliers.
Input Fields:
Average Candle Size Multiplier:
This parameter allows users to adjust the base size of what the script considers as a significant wick. By multiplying the average size of candles over the last 4998 bars, users can fine-tune the script to detect only wicks of a certain prominence. A higher value will mean that only larger wicks (relative to recent price action) will be considered significant.
Wick Ratio (Wick Proportion Threshold):
This ratio helps determine the proportion of the wick to the entire candle for it to be considered significant. A higher ratio means that the wick must be a larger part of the total candle size to be marked as significant. It's an essential parameter to differentiate between candles with tiny wicks and those with substantial wicks which might offer trading opportunities.
