Liquidity Engulfing Bar Detector

The **Liquidity Engulfing Bar Detector** is a powerful tool designed for traders who want to identify high-probability reversal patterns in the market based on liquidity grabbing and price action. This indicator highlights **Bullish Engulfing** and **Bearish Engulfing** bars that fulfill specific liquidity criteria, helping you spot potential trend reversals and trading opportunities.
**Features**:
1. **Bullish Engulfing Bars**:
- The current candle's low dips below the previous candle's low (grabs liquidity).
- The current candle closes above the previous candle's open.
- A green label is plotted above the engulfing bar for easy identification.

2. **Bearish Engulfing Bars**:
- The current candle's high exceeds the previous candle's high (grabs liquidity).
- The current candle closes below the previous candle's open.
- A red label is plotted below the engulfing bar for clear visibility.

3. **Customizable Alerts**:

### **How to Use**:
1. **Add the Indicator**:
- Apply the Liquidity Engulfing Bar Detector to your chart to automatically highlight bullish and bearish engulfing bars.

2. **Enable Alerts**:
- Set up TradingView alerts to get notified of potential setups in real-time.

3. **Analyze with Fibonacci Levels**:
- Draw a Fibonacci retracement tool over the identified engulfing bar, from its low to its high (for bullish patterns) or high to low (for bearish patterns).
- Use the following Fibonacci levels as key zones of interest:
- **0.0 (start)**, **0.25**, **0.5 (midpoint)**, **0.75**, and **1.0 (end)**.
- These levels often act as critical support or resistance zones for price action.

4. **Use Multi-Timeframe Confirmation**:
- Validate zones from higher timeframes using lower timeframe candles:
- **1-minute candles** for confirming zones on the **15-minute chart**.
- **5-minute candles** for confirming zones on the **1-hour chart**.
- **15-minute candles** for confirming zones on the **4-hour chart**.
- This approach ensures precision in your entry points and aligns intraday movements with higher timeframe setups.

5. **Integrate with Your Strategy**:
- Combine the indicator with other tools (e.g., trendlines, moving averages, or volume analysis) for confirmation.
- Use proper risk management to maximize your trading edge.
