Candle Trend Counter [theEccentricTrader]

█ OVERVIEW
This indicator counts the number of confirmed candle trend scenarios on any given candlestick chart and displays the statistics in a table, which can be repositioned and resized at the user's discretion.
█ CONCEPTS
Green and Red Candles
• A green candle is one that closes with a high price equal to or above the price it opened.
• A red candle is one that closes with a low price that is lower than the price it opened.
Swing Highs and Swing Lows
• A swing high is a green candle or series of consecutive green candles followed by a single red candle to complete the swing and form the peak.
• A swing low is a red candle or series of consecutive red candles followed by a single green candle to complete the swing and form the trough.
Muti-Part Green and Red Candle Trends
• A multi-part green candle trend begins upon the completion of a swing low and continues until a red candle completes the swing high, with each green candle counted as a part of the trend.
• A multi-part red candle trend begins upon the completion of a swing high and continues until a green candle completes the swing low, with each red candle counted as a part of the trend.

Table
The table is colour coded, consists of seven columns and, as many as, thirty-one rows. Blue cells denote the multi-part candle trend scenarios, green cells denote the corresponding green candle trend scenarios and red cells denote the corresponding red candle trend scenarios.
The candle trend scenarios are listed in the first column with their corresponding total counts to the right, in the second column. The last row in column one, displays the sample period which can be adjusted or hidden via indicator settings.
The third column displays the total candle trend scenarios as percentages of total 1-candle trends, or complete swing highs and swing lows. And column four displays the total candle trend scenarios as percentages of the, last, or preceding candle trend part. For example 4-candle trends as a percentage of 3-candle trends. This offers more insight into what might happen next at any given point in time.
Plots
I have added plots as a visual aid to the various candle trend scenarios listed in the table. Green up-arrows, with the number of the trend part, denote green candle trends. Red down-arrows, with the number of the trend part, denote red candle trends.
█ HOW TO USE
This indicator is intended for research purposes, strategy development and strategy optimisation. I hope it will be useful in helping to gain a better understanding of the underlying dynamics at play on any given market and timeframe.
It can, for example, give you an idea of whether the next candle will close higher or lower than it opened, based on the current scenario and what has happened in the past under similar circumstances. Such information can be very useful when conducting top down analysis across multiple timeframes and making strategic decisions.
What you do with these statistics and how far you decide to take your research is entirely up to you, the possibilities are endless.
█ LIMITATIONS
Some higher timeframe candles on tickers with larger lookbacks such as the DXY , do not actually contain all the open, high, low and close (OHLC) data at the beginning of the chart. Instead, they use the close price for open, high and low prices. So, while we can determine whether the close price is higher or lower than the preceding close price, there is no way of knowing what actually happened intra-bar for these candles. And by default candles that close at the same price as the open price, will be counted as green. You can avoid this problem by utilising the sample period filter.
The green and red candle calculations are based solely on differences between open and close prices, as such I have made no attempt to account for green candles that gap lower and close below the close price of the preceding candle, or red candles that gap higher and close above the close price of the preceding candle. I can only recommend using 24-hour markets, if and where possible, as there are far fewer gaps and, generally, more data to work with. Alternatively, you can replace the scenarios with your own logic to account for the gap anomalies, if you are feeling up to the challenge.
It is also worth noting that the sample size will be limited to your Trading View subscription plan. Premium users get 20,000 candles worth of data, pro+ and pro users get 10,000, and basic users get 5,000. If upgrading is currently not an option, you can always keep a rolling tally of the statistics in an excel spreadsheet or something of the like.
