All Candlestick Patterns - ExportThis is a copy of the built-in All Candlestick Patterns indicator, but with an additional plot for each indicator to support exporting. When exporting, each candlestick pattern will have its own column, with a 1 indicating the candlestick pattern was detected, and 0 indicating it wasn't. The plots are all overlaid, so are they are not useful for viewing, they are only used to generate values to export. This indicator also does not include alerts, so the built-in indicator should be used for everything except exporting.

Candlestick Pattern FinderThis script identifies common candlestick patterns and marks them with a tool-tip on the chart. It is a compilation of Tradingview's built-in candlestick finding scripts so it uses the same rules defined by Tradingview to identify the patterns. Instead of using a separate indicator for each candlestick pattern, you can use this script to find all the candlestick patterns with a single indicator.
By default, the script does not mark any of the detected patterns on the chart. You will have to open the indicator settings and enable the patterns you would like to see on the chart. There are also three tick-boxes that let you to enable/disable all the selected bearish/bullish/neutral patterns at once, i.e. if you would like to only see bearish patterns, you can disable all the bullish and neutral patterns at once with the corresponding tick boxes. When you enable bullish patterns again, the script will show your selection of bullish patterns again on the chart.
When you hover on the tool-tips with your cursor, a short description about the pattern will be displayed.
Candle LevelsCandle Levels
Allows chart levels to be plotted automatically, simply add tool to chart and the interactive mode will prompt for candle selection, timeframe anchor and some label choices such as displaying time, price or disabling labels altogether.
Also a note can be supplied that will be shown in the labels if they're displayed, if not it'll be up in the indicator values if those are enabled. Colors and individual labels can be customized, encourage saving over defaults for repeated usage.
Levels calculated:
Standard OHLC
Close to open mid point
High to low mid point
High wick mid point (either between close or open, whichever is higher)
Low wick mid point (either between close or open, whichever is lower)
I have plans to better detected levels and labels overlap to perhaps do something with that, for now manually toggling display of label should suffice.
I've tested with various markets such as futures, standard stock markets and also various higher and lower timeframes, if something is found to not be working please let me know.
Enjoy!

Candlestick smoother + x-SignalingHey!
This is a script I remade from various scripts I had.
It's a smoother of candlestick by VWMA , that means that will give information about the trend strenght and actual situation, as you might notice.
I also added a crossing over signaling with RED/GREEN colours.
When the chart is coloured red, means that soon there will be a selling opportunity.
When the chart is coloured green, means that soon there will be a buying opportunity.
For any question, just do it! ;)
Enjoy the ride, and always φ !

Dekidaka-Ashi - Candles And Volume Teaming Up (Again)The introduction of candlestick methods for market price data visualization might be one of the most important events in the history of technical analysis, as it totally changed the way to see a trading chart. Candlestick charts are extremely efficient, as they allow the trader to visualize the opening, high, low and closing price (OHLC) each at the same time, something impossible with a traditional line chart. Candlesticks are also cleaner than bars charts and make a more efficient use of space. Japanese peoples are always better than everyone at an incredible amount of stuff, look at what they made, the candlesticks/renko/kagi/heikin-ashi charts, the Ichimoku, manga, ecchi...
However classical candlesticks only include historical market price data, and won't include other type of data such as volume, which is considered by many investors a key information toward effective financial forecasting as volume is an indicator of trading activity. In order to tackle to this problem solutions where proposed, the most common one being to adapt the width of the candle based on the amount of volume, this method is the most commonly accepted one when it comes to visualizing both volume and OHLC data using candlesticks.
Now why proposing an additional tool for volume data visualization ? Because the classical width approach don't provide usable data regarding volume (as the width is directly related to the volume data). Therefore a new trading tool based on candlesticks that allow the trader to gain access to information about the volume is proposed. The approach is based on rescaling the volume directly to the price without the direct use of user settings. We will also see that this tool allow to create support and resistances as well as providing signals based on a breakout methodology.
Dekidaka-Ashi - Kakatte Koi Yo!
"Dekidaka" (出来高) mean "Volume" in a financial context, while "Ashi" (足) mean "leg" or "bar". In general methods based on candlesticks will have "Ashi" in their name.
Now that the name of the indicator has been explained lets see how it works, the indicator should be overlayed directly to a candlestick chart. The proposed method don't alter the shape of the candlesticks and allow to visualize any information given by the candles. As you can see on the figure below the candle body of the proposed tool only return the border of the candle, this allow to show the high/low wick of the candle.
The body size of the candle is based on two things : the absolute close/open difference, and the volume, if the absolute close/open difference is high and the volume is high then the body of the candle will be clearly visible, if the volume is high but the absolute close/open difference is low, then the body will be less visible. This approach is used because of the rescaling method used, the volume is divided by the sum between the current volume value and the precedent volume value, this rescale the volume in a (0,1) range, this result is multiplied by the absolute close/open difference and added/subtracted to the high/low price. The original approach was based on normalization using the rolling maximum, but this approach would have led to repainting.
You have access to certain settings that can help you obtain a better visualization, the first one being the body size setting, with higher values increasing the body amplitude.
In green body with size 2, in red with size 1. The smooth parameter will smooth the volume data before being used, this allow to create more visible bodies.
Here smooth = 100.
Making Bands From The Dekidaka-Ashi
This tool is made so it output two rescaled volume values, with the highest value being denoted as "Dekidaka-high" and the lowest one as "Dekidaka-low". In order to get bands we must use two moving averages, one using the Dekidaka-high as input and the other one using Dekidaka-low, the body size parameter should be fairly high, therefore i will hide the tool as it could cause trouble visualizing the bands.
Bands with both MA's of period 20 and the body size equal to 20. Larger periods of the MA's will require a larger amount of body size.
Breakout Signals
There is a wide variety of signals that can be made from candles, ones i personally like comes from the HA candles. The proposed tool is no exception and can produce a wide variety of signals. The signals generated are basic ones based on a breakout methodology, here is each signal with their associated label :
Strong Bullish signal "⇈" : The high price cross the Dekidaka-high and the closing price is greater than the opening price
Strong Bearish signal "⇊" : The low price cross the Dekidaka-low and the closing price is lower than the opening price
Weak Bullish signal "↑" : The high price cross the Dekidaka-high and the closing price is lower than the opening price
Weak Bearish signal "↓" : The low price cross the Dekidaka-low and the closing price is greater than the opening price
Uncertain "↕" : The high price cross the Dekidaka-high and the low price cross the the Dekidaka-low
In order to see the signals on the chart check the "Show signals" option. Note that such signals are not based on an advanced study, and even if they are based on a breakout methodology we can see that volatile movement rarely produce signals, therefore signals mostly occur during low volume/volatility periods, which isn't necessarily a great thing.
Conclusion
A trading tool based on candlesticks that aim to include volume information has been presented and a brief methodology has been introduced. A study of the signals generated is required, however i'am not confident at all on their accuracy, i could work on that in the future. We have also seen how to make bands from the tool.
Candlesticks remain a beautiful charting technique that can provide an enormous amount of information to the trader, and even if the accuracy of patterns based on candlesticks is subject to debates, we can all agree that candlesticks will remain the most widely used type of financial chart.
On a side note i mostly use a dark color for a bullish candle, and a light gray for a bearish candle, with the border color being of the same color as the bullish candle. This is in my opinion the best setup for a candlestick chart, as candles using the traditional green/red can kill the eyes and because this setup allow to apply a wide variety of colors to the plot of overlayed indicators without the fear of causing conflict with the candles color.
Thanks for reading ! :3 Nya
A Word
This morning i received some hateful messages on twitter, the users behind them certainly coming from tradingview, so lets be clear, i know i'am not the most liked person in this community, i know that perfectly, but no one merit to be receive hateful messages. I'am not responsible for the losses of peoples using my indicators, nor is tradingview, using technical indicators does not guarantee long term returns, your ability to be profitable will mostly be based on the quality and quantity of knowledge you have.
Ehlers Regime Dynamic CandlesCore Calculation Mechanism
The indicator uses advanced Ehlers signal processing techniques to identify market regimes and create dynamically colored candles that reflect market conditions.
Super Smoother Filter: Price data (open, high, low, close) is processed through an Ehlers Super Smoother Filter to reduce market noise while preserving important price movements. This creates a clearer signal for regime detection.
Autocorrelation Analysis: The core of regime detection uses autocorrelation functions at different lag periods:
Primary autocorrelation measures correlation between the current price and its previous value
Trending autocorrelation measures longer-term persistence in the data series
These values combined determine if the market is in a trending or choppy regime
(Image showing Ehlers custom candles vs default candlesticks)
Regime Strength Calculation:
-Raw signal from autocorrelation with user-defined threshold adjustment
-Adaptive scaling based on sensitivity parameter
-Optional volume validation that confirms signal strength using volume data
-Normalization to 0-1 range and smoothing for visual consistency
-Percentile ranking to provide contextually meaningful strength values
Fisher Transform: Applied to the smoothed price to identify statistical extremes, which helps adjust transparency levels during significant price movements.
Key Features & Components
Regime Detection: Identifies trending vs. choppy market conditions using Ehlers' autocorrelation techniques.
Dynamic Candle Coloring: Candles transition smoothly between three color states:
Bullish trending (typically green/teal)
Bearish trending (typically red/purple)
Choppy/neutral (typically blue/silver)
Volume Validation: Optional incorporation of volume data to confirm trend strength (stronger volume during trending periods increases confidence).
Adaptive Transparency: Candles become more opaque during statistically significant price movements based on Fisher Transform values.
Gradient Smoothing: Controls the visual transition between regime states for a more aesthetically pleasing appearance.
Customizable Colors and Style: Full control over all visual aspects including candle body/wick colors and transparency.
Configuration Options
Users can adjust the following parameters in the indicator settings:
Main Settings:
Cycle Length: Controls the lookback period for cycle detection. Lower values increase responsiveness but may introduce noise.
Gradient Smoothness: Determines how quickly colors transition when regime changes.
Trend Detection Threshold: Sets the autocorrelation strength required to classify a trend.
Trend Sensitivity: Scales regime strength calculation to produce a better distribution of values.
Use Volume: Toggles whether volume data is used to validate trend strength.
Color Settings:
Trending Regime Colors: Separate color options for bullish and bearish candle bodies and wicks.
Choppy Regime Colors: Color options for candle bodies and wicks during sideways/neutral markets.
Style Settings:
Candle Border Options: Toggle borders and adjust their color and transparency.
Adaptive Transparency: Enable/disable dynamic transparency based on statistical significance.
Base Transparency: Set the baseline transparency level for all candles.
Interpretation Notes
Color Transitions: As the market shifts between regimes, candle colors gradually transition, providing visual cues about market structure changes.
Regime Strength: The intensity of colors indicates the strength of the detected regime:
Strong trending regimes show vibrant trending colors
Weak or mixed regimes display colors closer to the choppy/neutral color
Transitions between regimes show gradient colors
Transparency Changes: More opaque candles indicate statistically significant price movements, while more transparent candles suggest routine or less significant price action.
Volume Interaction: When volume validation is enabled, trending colors become more pronounced during high volume trends and subdued during low volume periods.
Disclaimer: These are custom candles that are significantly different from normal candlesticks.
Unlike traditional candlesticks that display raw price data, these candles:
• Use Ehlers signal processing to filter and smooth price data
• Dynamically change color based on detected market regimes
• Show statistical significance through transparency
• May appear delayed compared to standard candles due to the filtering process
Traditional trading strategies dependent on candlestick patterns will not work with these.
Risk Disclaimer
Trading involves significant risk. This indicator is provided for analytical purposes only and does not constitute financial advice. Past performance is not indicative of future results. Use sound risk management practices and never trade with capital you cannot afford to lose. The Ehlers Regime Dynamic Candles indicator should be used as part of a comprehensive trading approach, not as a standalone trading system.
2Rsi buy & sell & candlesticks patterns in rsi[Trader's Journal]An Ingenious Trading Indicator: RSI, Japanese Candlesticks, and Buy/Sell Signals
The world of trading is a subtle game of analysis, where the smallest piece of information can make the difference between success and failure. In this perpetual quest to anticipate market movements, one indicator stands out: the Relative Strength Index (RSI), a powerful tool that measures the strength of price movements. However, RSI alone may not always suffice for informed trading decisions.
This is where our indicator comes into play, adding a new dimension to your analysis. The indicator skillfully combines RSI with Japanese candlesticks, those small candles rich in market movement information. The goal is clear: to generate buy and sell signals during trend reversals while keeping a keen eye on overbought and oversold zones.
RSI: Guardian of Extremes
The RSI is a basic tool that measures buying and selling pressure on an asset. It oscillates between 0 and 100, signaling overbought levels when the RSI exceeds 70 and oversold levels below 30. These extreme zones are often the stage for trend reversals, but timing is crucial.
Japanese Candlesticks: Messengers of the Market
Japanese candlesticks are more than just candles on a chart. They depict market emotions, reflecting the ongoing struggle between buyers and sellers. Trend reversals are typically heralded by specific candlestick patterns such as the Bearish Engulfing, Evening Star, or Inverted Hammer. These candlesticks act as powerful visual signals.
The Indicator in Action: Timing and Confirmation
When the RSI reaches the overbought zone (above 70) or oversold zone (below 30), our indicator is on alert. This is when vigilance is at its peak. However, buy and sell signals don't occur automatically. They await confirmation from Japanese candlesticks.
For a sell signal, the indicator awaits an exit from the overbought zone, followed by a bearish reversal candlestick. When these conditions are met, the sell signal is triggered. For a buy signal, the process is similar, but upon exiting the oversold zone and in the presence of a bullish candlestick.
The Elegance of the Combination
The beauty of this indicator lies in its ability to combine RSI analysis with the power of Japanese candlesticks. It doesn't just predict trend reversals, it does so elegantly, demanding visual confirmation, thus avoiding false signals.
As the market moves relentlessly, this indicator is your ally for making informed decisions. It reminds you that the wisdom of trading lies in combining different analytical tools to decipher the mysteries of the financial market. Envelop your trading strategies with this indicator, and witness how it can illuminate your path to success.
Volume Delta Candles HTF [TradingFinder] LTF Volume Candles 🔵 Introduction
In financial markets, understanding the concepts of supply and demand and their impact on price movements is of paramount importance. Supply and demand, as fundamental pillars of economics, reflect the interaction between buyers and sellers.
When buyers' strength surpasses that of sellers, demand increases, and prices tend to rise. Conversely, when sellers dominate buyers, supply overtakes demand, causing prices to drop. These interactions play a crucial role in determining market trends, price reversal points, and trading decisions.
Volume Delta Candles offer traders a practical way to visualize trading activity within each candlestick. By integrating data from lower timeframes or live market feeds, these candles eliminate the need for standalone volume indicators.
They present the proportions of buying and selling volume as intuitive colored bars, making it easier to interpret market dynamics at a glance. Additionally, they encapsulate critical metrics like peak delta, lowest delta, and net delta, allowing traders to grasp the market's internal order flow with greater precision.
In financial markets, grasping the interplay between supply and demand and its influence on price movements is crucial for successful trading. These fundamental economic forces reflect the ongoing balance between buyers and sellers in the market.
When buyers exert greater strength than sellers, demand dominates, driving prices upward. Conversely, when sellers take control, supply surpasses demand, and prices decline. Understanding these dynamics is essential for identifying market trends, pinpointing reversal points, and making informed trading decisions.
Volume Delta Candles provide an innovative method for evaluating trading activity within individual candlesticks, offering a simplified view without relying on separate volume indicators. By leveraging lower timeframe or real-time data, this tool visualizes the distribution of buying and selling volumes within a candle through color-coded bars.
This visual representation enables traders to quickly assess market sentiment and understand the forces driving price action. Buyer and seller strength is a critical concept that focuses on the ratio of buying to selling volumes. This ratio not only provides insights into the market's current state but also serves as a leading indicator for detecting potential shifts in trends.
Traders often rely on volume analysis to identify significant supply and demand zones, guiding their entry and exit strategies. Delta Candles translate these complex metrics, such as Maximum Delta, Minimum Delta, and Final Delta, into an easy-to-read visual format using Japanese candlestick structures, making them an invaluable resource for analyzing order flows and market momentum.
By merging the principles of supply and demand with comprehensive volume analysis, tools like the indicator introduced here offer unparalleled clarity into market behavior. This indicator calculates the relative strength of supply and demand for each candlestick by analyzing the ratio of buyers to sellers.
🔵 How to Use
The presented indicator is a powerful tool for analyzing supply and demand strength in financial markets. It helps traders identify the strengths and weaknesses of buyers and sellers and utilize this information for better decision-making.
🟣 Analyzing the Highest Volume Trades on Candles
A unique feature of this indicator is the visualization of price levels with the highest trade volume for each candlestick. These levels are marked as black lines on the candles, indicating prices where most trades occurred. This information is invaluable for identifying key supply and demand zones, which often act as support or resistance levels.
🟣 Trend Confirmation
The indicator enables traders to confirm bullish or bearish trends by observing changes in buyer and seller strength. When buyer strength increases and demand surpasses supply, the likelihood of a bullish trend continuation grows. Conversely, decreasing buyer strength and increasing seller strength may signal a potential bearish trend reversal.
🟣 Adjusting Timeframes and Calculation Methods

Vortex Candle MarkerVortex Candle Marker
The Vortex Candle Marker is a specialized TradingView indicator designed to identify and highlight **Vortex Candles**—candles that momentarily form without wicks on either the high or low. This unique price behavior can signal potential price retracements or reversals, aligning with the **Power of Three (PO3)** concept in price action theory.
Indicator Logic:
A candle is classified as a **Vortex Candle** if either of these conditions is met during its formation:
1. **Vortex Top:** The **high** equals either the **open** or **close**, indicating no upper wick.
2. **Vortex Bottom:** The **low** equals either the **open** or **close**, indicating no lower wick.
When a Vortex Candle is detected, the indicator changes the **candle border color** to **aqua**, making it easy to identify these significant price moments.
Market Insight & PO3 Interpretation:
In typical price behavior, most candles exhibit both upper and lower wicks, representing price exploration before settling at a closing value. A candle forming without a wick suggests **strong directional intent** at that moment. However, by the **Power of Three (PO3)** concept—Accumulation, Manipulation, and Distribution—such wickless formations often imply:
- **Price Reversion Likelihood:** When a candle temporarily forms without a wick, it suggests the market may **revisit the opening price** to establish a wick before the candle closes.
- **Liquidity Manipulation:** The absence of a wick may indicate a **stop-hunt** or liquidity grab, where the price manipulates one side before reversing.
- **Entry Triggers:** Identifying these moments can help traders anticipate potential **retracements** or **continuations** within the PO3 framework.
Practical Application
- **Early Reversal Detection:** Spot potential price reversals by observing wickless candles forming at key levels.
- **Breakout Validation:** Use Vortex Candles to confirm **true breakouts** or **false moves** before the price returns.
- **Liquidity Zones:** Identify areas where the market is likely to revisit to create a wick, signaling entry/exit points.
This indicator is a powerful tool for traders applying **Po3** methodologies and seeking to capture price manipulation patterns.
ADX Momentum Shaded CandlesDescription:
The "ADX Momentum Shaded Candles" indicator (ADXMSC) is an overlay indicator that enhances candlestick charts by adding shading based on the momentum derived from the Average Directional Index (ADX). This indicator provides visual cues about the strength of bullish and bearish momentum by adjusting the transparency of the candlesticks.
How it Works:
The indicator utilizes the ADX indicator to calculate the values of +DI (Directional Indicator Plus) and -DI (Directional Indicator Minus) based on user-defined parameters. It then determines the transparency levels for the bullish and bearish candlesticks based on the calculated values of +DI and -DI. Higher values of +DI or -DI result in lower transparency levels, while lower values increase transparency.
Transparency Calculation:
The transparency of the bullish and bearish candlesticks is adjusted based on the values of +DI and -DI, which reflect the momentum of the price movement. Transparency is inversely proportional to these values, with higher values resulting in lower transparency. To calculate transparency, the indicator uses the formula 100 minus the value of +DI or -DI multiplied by 2. This ensures that higher values of +DI or -DI produce more opaque candlesticks.
Usage:
To effectively use the "ADX Momentum Shaded Candles" indicator (ADXMSC), follow these steps:
1. Apply the indicator to your chart by adding it from the available indicators.
2. Observe the candlesticks on the chart:
- Bullish candlesticks are represented by the original bullish color with adjusted transparency.
- Bearish candlesticks are represented by the original bearish color with adjusted transparency.
3. Analyze the transparency levels of the candlesticks to assess the strength of bullish and bearish momentum. Less transparent candlesticks indicate stronger momentum, while more transparent ones suggest weaker momentum.
4. Combine the visual information from the shaded candlesticks with other technical analysis tools, such as support and resistance levels, trend lines, or oscillators, to confirm potential trade opportunities.
5. Customize the indicator's parameters, such as the ADX length and smoothing, to suit your trading preferences.
6. Implement appropriate risk management strategies, including setting stop-loss orders and position sizing, to manage your trades effectively and protect your capital.
Volume Shaded CandlesDescription:
The Volume Shaded Candles indicator (VSC) is a technical analysis tool designed to represent price candles on a chart with transparency based on the volume traded during each candle. This overlay indicator enhances visual analysis by providing a visual representation of volume intensity.
How it Works:
The VSC indicator calculates the volume-to-transparency ratio by dividing the current volume by the highest volume within the last 10 periods. The ratio is then used to determine the shading intensity of the price candles. Higher volume relative to the recent highest volume results in lower transparency, while lower volume results in higher transparency.
Usage:
To effectively utilize the Volume Shaded Candles indicator, follow these steps:
1. Apply the Volume Shaded Candles indicator to your chart by adding it from the available indicators.
2. Configure the indicator's inputs:
- Specify the color for bullish candles using the "Bullish Color" input.
- Specify the color for bearish candles using the "Bearish Color" input.
3. Observe the shaded candles on the chart:
- Bullish candles are colored with the specified bullish color and shaded according to the volume intensity.
- Bearish candles are colored with the specified bearish color and shaded according to the volume intensity.
4. Interpret the shaded candles:
- Darker shading indicates higher volume during the corresponding candle.
- Lighter shading indicates lower volume during the corresponding candle.
5. Combine the analysis of shaded candles with other technical analysis tools, such as trend lines, support and resistance levels, or candlestick patterns, to identify potential trade setups.
6. Implement appropriate risk management strategies, including setting stop-loss orders and position sizing, to manage your trades effectively and protect your capital.
Zigzag CandlesCan't deny that I am obsessed with zigzags. Been doing some crazy experiments with it and have many more in pipeline. I believe zigzag can be used to derive better trend following methods. Here is an attempt to visualize zigzag as candlesticks. Next steps probably to derive moving average, atr (although there was an attempt of AZR made earlier) and probably supertrend too ;)
Input parameters include ZigzagLength (to calculate zigzag) and CandleSize (number of zigzag pivots in each candle)
CandleSize can be 3 or more. Every time we collect pivots which are equal to CandleSize, we derive one candle. And when we derive a candle, we remove all old pivots except the last one. Becauase, the last pivot acts as open to the next bar and is required.
Body of the candle tells the start and end zigzag pivot in the range. And Wicks signify highest and lowest pivots in the range. High and Low wicks are placed at the pivot where high and lows are formed. Hence, you can see them at different positions each time.
Thanks to @RicardoSantos for suggesting boxes for candles - while I was trying to achieve this with plotbar
Bullish and Bearish Candlestick Patterns StrategyThe strategy is a combination of candlestick pattern analysis and Fibonacci retracement levels to identify potential buy and sell signals in the market. Here's how the strategy works and how you can trade accordingly:
Candlestick Pattern Analysis:
The strategy looks for specific bullish and bearish candlestick patterns to identify potential trend reversals or continuations. The bullish patterns include:
Bullish Engulfing: This pattern occurs when a bullish candle fully engulfs the previous bearish candle.
Hammer: It is a single candlestick pattern with a small body and a long lower wick, indicating a potential bullish reversal.
Morning Star: This pattern consists of three candles, with the middle one being a small-bodied candle that gaps down and the other two being bullish candles.
The bearish patterns include:
Bearish Engulfing: Similar to the bullish engulfing, but this time, a bearish candle fully engulfs the previous bullish candle.
Shooting Star: A single candlestick pattern with a small body and a long upper wick, suggesting a potential bearish reversal.
Evening Star: This pattern is the opposite of the morning star, with a small-bodied candle that gaps up between two bearish candles.
Fibonacci Retracement Levels:
The strategy uses Fibonacci retracement levels to determine potential support and resistance levels in the market. The main level considered in this strategy is the Fibonacci 0.5 level, which is the midpoint of the previous swing move.
Trading Accordingly:
To trade using this strategy, follow these steps:
a. Observe the Chart: Apply the indicator to your preferred chart, and observe the candlestick patterns and the plotted support, resistance, and Fibonacci 0.5 levels.
b. Buy Signal: A buy signal is generated when any of the bullish candlestick patterns (Bullish Engulfing, Hammer, Morning Star) occur, and the low price of the current candle is above or equal to the Fibonacci 0.5 level. This suggests a potential bullish reversal or continuation of an existing uptrend.
c. Sell Signal: A sell signal is generated when any of the bearish candlestick patterns (Bearish Engulfing, Shooting Star, Evening Star) occur, and the high price of the current candle is below or equal to the Fibonacci 0.5 level. This indicates a potential bearish reversal or continuation of an existing downtrend.
d. Risk Management: Place stop-loss orders to protect your position in case the market moves against your trade. Consider setting the stop-loss below the recent swing low for buy trades and above the recent swing high for sell trades.
e. Take Profit: Set a target for taking profits based on your risk-reward ratio. You can use the recent swing high for buy trades as a potential target and the recent swing low for sell trades.
f. Filter Signals: Keep in mind that not all signals will result in profitable trades. It's essential to filter signals with other technical analysis tools and consider the overall market context.
Remember that no trading strategy guarantees profits, and trading always carries inherent risks. It's crucial to practice proper risk management, use appropriate position sizing, and test the strategy thoroughly in a demo environment before applying it to live trading. Additionally, consider combining this strategy with other indicators or analysis methods to make more informed .
Magnifying Glass (LTF Candles) by SiddWolf█ OVERVIEW
This indicator displays The Lower TimeFrame Candles in current chart, Like Zooming in on the Candle to see it's Lower TimeFrame Structure. It plots intrabar OHLC data inside a Label along with the volume structure of LTF candle in an eloquent format.
█ QUICK GUIDE
Just apply it to the chart, Hover the mouse on the Label and ta-da you have a Lower Timeframe OHLC candles on your screen. Move the indicator to the top and shrink it all the way up, because all the useful data is inside the label.
Inside the label: The OHLC ltf candles are pretty straightforward. Volume strength of ltf candles is shown at bottom and Volume Profile on the left. Read the Details below for more information.
In the settings, you will find the option to change the UI and can play around with Lower TimeFrame Settings.
█ DETAILS
First of all, I would like to thank the @TradingView team for providing the function to get access to the lower timeframe data. It is because of them that this magical indicator came into existence.
Magnifying Glass indicator displays a Candle's Lower TimeFrame data in Higher timeframe chart. It displays the LTF candles inside a label. It also shows the Volume structure of the lower timeframe candles. Range percentage shown at the bottom is the percentage change between high and low of the current timeframe candle. LTF candle's timeframe is also shown at the bottom on the label.
This indicator is gonna be most useful to the price action traders, which is like every profitable trader.
How this indicator works:
I didn't find any better way to display ltf candles other than labels. Labels are not build for such a complex behaviour, it's a workaround to display this important information.
It gets the lower timeframe information of the candle and uses emojis to display information. The area that is shown, is the range of the current timeframe candle. Range is a difference between high and low of the candle. Range percentage is also shown at the bottom in the label.
I've divided the range area into 20 parts because there are limitation to display data in the labels. Then the code checks out, in what area does the ltf candle body or wick lies, then displays the information using emojis.
The code uses matrix elements for each block and relies heavily on string manipulation. But what I've found most difficult, is managing to fit everything correctly and beautifully so that the view doesn't break.
Volume Structure:
Strength of the Lower TimeFrame Candles is shown at the bottom inside the label. The Higher Volume is shown with the dark shade color and Lower Volume is shown with the light shade. The volume of candles are also ranked, with 1 being the highest volume, so you can see which candle have the maximum to minimum volume. This is pretty important to make a price action analysis of the lower timeframe candles.
Inside the label on the left side you will see the volume profile. As the volume on the bottom shows the strength of each ltf candles, Volume profile on the left shows strength in a particular zone. The Darker the color, the higher the volume in the zone. The Highest volume on the left represents Point of Control (Volume Profile POC) of the candle.
Lower TimeFrame Settings:
There is a limitation for the lowest timeframe you can show for a chart, because there is only so much data you can fit inside a label. A label can show upto 20 blocks of emojis (candle blocks) per row. Magnifying Glass utilizes this behaviour of labels. 16 blocks are used to display ltf candles, 1 for volume profile and two for Open and Close Highlighter.
So for any chart timeframe, ltf candles can be 16th part of htf candle. So 4 hours chart can show as low as 15 minutes of ltf data. I didn't provide the open settings for changing the lower timeframe, as it would give errors in a lot of ways. You can change the timeframe for each chart time from the settings provided.
Limitations:
Like I mentioned earlier, this indicator is a workaround to display ltf candles inside a label. This indicator does not work well on smaller screens. So if you are not able to see the label, zoom out on your browser a bit. Move the indicator to either top or bottom of all indicators and shrink it's space because all details are inside the label.
█ How I use MAGNIFYING GLASS:
This indicator provides you an edge, on top of your existing trading strategy. How you use Magnifying Glass is entirely dependent on your strategy.
I use this indicator to get a broad picture, before getting into a trade. For example I see a Doji or Engulfing or any other famous candlestick pattern on important levels, I hover the mouse on Magnifying Glass, to look for the price action the ltf candles have been through, to make that pattern. I also use it with my "Wick Pressure" indicator, to check price action at wick zones. Whenever I see price touching important supply and demand zones, I check last few candles to read chart like a beautiful price action story.
Also volume is pretty important too. This is what makes Magnifying Glass even better than actual lower timeframe candles. The increasing volume along with up/down trend price shows upward/downward momentum. The sudden burst (peak) in the volume suggests volume climax.
Volume profile on the left can be interpreted as the strength/weakness zones inside a candle. The low volume in a price zone suggests weakness and High volume suggests strength. The Highest volume on the left act as POC for that candle.
Before making any trade, I read the structure of last three or four candles to get the complete price action picture.
█ Conclusion
Magnifying Glass is a well crafted indicator that can be used to track lower timeframe price action. This indicator gives you an edge with the Multi Timeframe Analysis, which I believe is the most important aspect of profitable trading.
