Candle and BG Trend IdentifierThis indicator simply changes the background and color of candle based on the previous candle's close. If a candle closes high than the previous candle's high it will be indicated via green coloring. If a candle closes lower than the previous candle's low it will be indicated in red coloring. Additionally, grey colored candles appear when neither occur - often signifying consolidation.
These candles can be used to identify previous small lasting and long ranging trends. Areas that are heavily saturated with one specific color will likely indicate a trend.

Wick-off Check Pattern [Misu]█ This Indicator shows a wick-off check pattern.
This pattern appears when a candle goes below a level (support or resistance) and closes above it OR when it goes above a level and finishes below it. This causes a wick to go through the level: a wick-off check .
This can confirm a pullback or a breakout.
█ Usages:
This indicator can be used to validate a resistance or support level.
It can also be used to validate breaking levels.
█ Parameters:
Deviation: Parameter used to calculate pivots.
Depth: Parameter used to calculate pivots.
Wickoff Mode: Mode used to detect Wickoff check pattern.
> counter pattern: only shows "pullback" wickoff check.
> breakout pattern: only shows "breakout moves" wickoff check.
> both: shows both.
Lenght Avg Body: Lenght used to calculate the average body size.
First Breakout Factor:
Lenght Avg Wick Validation: This factor multiplied by the "body avg" filters out the non-significant breakout.
Factor Avg Wick Validation: Lenght used to calculate the average wick size.
Max Bars Wickoff: This factor multiplied by the "wick avg", filters out the non-significant wickoff signals.

Candle Fill % MeterFor use with Hollow Candles
Fills Candles based on either the value of the RSI or coppock scaled to fit properly between the open and close. Makes for a compact visual with lot's of information given. Toggle bells and whistles in settings such as arrows to indicate the direction of the value being measured, dividing levels, fill from candle open all the time instead of the bottom up and more.
Candle StrengthIt is hard to know which party plays a vital role in the candle. Sometimes we see a red candle/ Seller's candle very weak, but still, the market continues. Here, I tried to figure out how much strength buyers/sellers possess in their respective candles.
The idea is simply to measure the area between high and low and then calculate the opposite party's oppression by calculating the wick's area.
This script is more like a tool, and hence I do not suggest using this as an independent strategy. However, combining it with other analyses and strategies will surely bear fruitful results.
I, in the future, will come up with strategies and more tools like this.
So, follow me to keep getting updates.
Thanks.
Whisker Reversal Oscillator [SpiritualHealer117]The Whisker Reversal Oscillator can be used to spot strength or weakness in trends. It is designed for stocks, commodities and forex trading, and is intended to be calculated from the high, close, low, and open over a given length.
Features:
The Whisker Reversal Oscillator shows the average length of the top and bottom whiskers on candlesticks over a defined length. It plots the percentage difference between the whiskers and the length of the body, with the yellow line representing the average length of the top whisker, and the bottom line indicating the average length of the bottom whisker.
Interpreting the signals:
The Whisker Reversal Oscillator is interpreted in the same way as a candlestick reversal pattern, where it being bullish or bearish depends on the trend. In a bull trend, if the yellow line passes above the blue line, it means the top whiskers are longer on average than the bottom whiskers, which may show that bulls were too weak to hold a rally, and signal a reversal. On the other hand, in a bear trend, if the yellow line is above the blue line, it indicates that the bulls were able to push the price up, which would be bullish. If the blue line crosses over the yellow line in an uptrend, it's often a bearish sign, but if it happens in a downtrend, its a bullish sign.
Generally speaking, a cross in the lines is indicative of a potential reversal, and when the lines cross over 1, it means that the whiskers were bigger than the candlestick bodies over your selected length, indicating that a big swing will come.
Fake breakHi Traders,
I've developed an indicator which can detect fake-breaks on the chart.
In the following you'll find the definition of the fake break candles and also you will find how to recognize it on the chart with practical examples.
What is the fake break pattern?
Sometimes support and resistance lines broke with a full body and strong candles that gives us the idea of sharp movements on the chart but suddenly the next candle returns all the path of the previous candle. in this case we can say fake break is happening on the chart.
This indicator detect fake break patterns based on two criteria:
1. It uses AverageTrueRange indicator to measure the strength of the pattern.
2. The returning candle should engulf minimum 75% of the break candle.
This indicator plot 2 terms in the name of "FB-D" and "FB-U" that are abbreviations of the "Fake Break Down" and "Fake Break Up".
You can also set alerts to get notified when fake breakout happens on the chart.
Notice: This pattern is only acceptable in valid support and resistance zones and you can not rely on it everywhere on the chart (specially in the middle of the waves).
Notice: The source code of this indicator is open and you are allowed to use it on your scripts by mentioning the name of author.
Disclaimer: This is not a financial advice or any signal to buy or sell, the goal of developing such an indicator is to use for educational purposes.
((Bullish)) Candle below EMA Hello People of the Trading World...
Todays script is a basic concept of using Moving Averages and Candle Closes - this works best on Higher Timeframes and only in Bullish Conditions
"When the market is trending to the upside - we tend to see price overextend from the moving average and price revert back to the mean (Mean Reversion)"
You may ask why would you want this candle - this presents good opportunities in a trending market (NOT AN ENTRY CANDLE). This can be useful to get into existing trends which you may have missed
This candle will display when the candle close is below one of the below EMAS
9EMA
50EMA
100EMA
You can choose which one to show ie if the 21ema wasnt important but the 100ema was... turn off the 21ema and 50ema and this will display candle below the 100ema
This candle can be alerted in the settings so if price does close you wont miss it.
EXMAPLES:
If you find this script useful please leave a comment and a thumbs up :)

CANDLE FILTER Todays scripts is based on my Pullback And Rally Candles with other meaningful candles such as Hammers and Dojis.
You can choose which Candles to show on the cart and if you want to candles to appear above or below a moving average.
If you follow my work, you may recognise some of these candles which I'm about to show you however these candles are 1) more refined and 2) has moving average filters.
Ive included a D,6H,1H Candle in this script as on different timeframes - each swing low on average has a different amount of bars within the swing low / swing high so the DPB and RD will only work on the Daily
//Pullback candle
This candle is very powerful when used with simple Price Action such as Market Structure//Demand zones and support zones. (((((WORKS BEST IN UPTRENDS AND BOTTOM OF RANGES)))))

Oxy CandlestickOxymoronic (oxy) candlesticks often appear at significant levels in a chart and can indicate increased probabilities of directional moves.
Typically, green candles are hollow and red candles are filled. An oxymoronic candle is colored bullishly but filled bearishly (solid green) or vice versa (hollow red).
Oxy flags occur when:
1) Price gaps up and closes lower than the open but above the last close. A solid green (or black) candle is bearish.
2) Price gaps down and closes higher than the open but below the last close. A hollow red candle is bullish.
An oxy candle indicates one of three things:
1) Price is going up (bullish oxy)
2) Price is going down (bearish oxy)
3) Price will return to this level (either)
#1 and #2 are the default meaning. If those don't play out then look for #3.
As is the case with most indicators, it is best not to use this indicator in isolation, but to combine it with other forms of analysis to increase your probabilities and to identify significant levels.
Rally HTF Candle (Candlestick Analysis) Guaranteed WinnersRally Candle will signal when price is at the end of a Rally to the upside and thus entering a balance phase in the market (works on all markets)
This candle works very efficient when the market is either trending downwards or in range markets where price is at resistance. (i would avoid in uptrends but depends on the trader)
Also we can expect this candle to form when price is overextended as the theory of this script is when there is a turning point in momentum - this candle will appear and we can look long from this signal.
This candle will only work in Swing High areas and appear when below an moving average which can be changed in the settings.
This candle will work only work pn the HTF as it provides very good rexpectancy whereas the LTF has a slightly less expectancy (i will be publishing an intraday Rally candle)
This candle can be alerted to signal the Rally Candle when the bar is confirmed and not during.
The way i trade this candle is
1) Candle signal must be in probably area to increase efficiency.
2) Enter on the second candle after candle IS CONFIRMED
3) Set stop loss below Rally Candle or use ATR value
4) Trade with the trend ie only Bearish price action
5) This candle can catch extreme points in the market ie this candle projected when ETH hit aths $4841
6) Trading with a confluence along with the Rally is better than solely trading this candle

Have a good weekend :)
Rally Candle (End Game ) 26/04/2022 Few Months ago I started wanted to code a candle which alerts me when a Rally may be over in Bearish Conditions and today I have created a candle which is 1. subjective but more importantly appears in areas where buying pressure is at either a climax or in the process of a decline and this is where the Rally Candle signals. This shows momentum may be shifting and these can provide some good entries.
They will only working when price is below the 200ema and in overextended markets - VERY IMPORTANT!!!
Works on all timeframe with HTF providing more price percentage than LTF
They aren’t a specific candle size however they will repaint when we see 4 higher close candles followed by a candle which has closed lower than the previous 4th.
//Candle Conditions
This candle has to be in a swing high area to be valid and on 1H and 6H but the 1H will repaint a lot of candles so when we have a point system of +20 we can assume this setup is a good setup.
//Candle Operators
You can change the color of the bar to your liking
There is a ema filter so if you want to candle to not show candles of the 50ema this operator will do the command.
Please post requests and any potential implementations I could port to pine script.
Hope you Enjoy :)
Wick Pressure by SiddWolfMultiple Wicks forming at OverSold & OverBought levels create Buying and Selling Pressure. This Script tries to capture the essence of the buy and sell pressure created by those wicks. Wick pressure shows that the trend is Exhausted.
How it works:
This Wick Pressure Indicator checks for three candles forming the wicks in overbought and oversold zones. The zones are set by RSI and can be changed in settings. Those three candles should form a bit long wick and length of the wick is determined by ATR. The ATR multiple can be changed from settings. And then the script draws a box in the area formed by three candle wicks.
Confluence:
This indicator should not be used on its own. You should include it in your existing trading strategy. Any indicator should be rigorously tested before making any real trades.
Settings is the Key:
Settings are key to all of my indicators. Play around with it a bit. Change the ATR multiplier. Read the tooltips to understand what each settings mean. Tooltips are the (i) button in-front of each settings.
FAQs:
Q. Does the indicator Repaint ?
--- No. None of my indicators repaints. What you see now is what's drawn in real time.
Q. Indicator doesn't show anything ?
--- Maybe you've messed up the settings so reset it. or try different coin/stock.
Q. Does this indicator give financial advice?
--- No. Nope. Nein. Não. नहीं.
Conclusion:
This indicator is very basic but if used correctly it can be very powerful. Hit me up if you'd like to see the screener/scanner for this or any of my indicators. If you have any questions or suggestions feel free to comment below. I'd love to connect with you. Thank you.

Volume Filtered *All Candlestick Patterns* [KT] Hello!
This script uses TradingView's *All Candlestick Patterns* indicator and includes a volume filter.
The frequency of each candlestick pattern is recorded in addition to the subsequent session's outcome - higher or lower close.
The requisite volume for the pattern is configurable; formations will not be distinguished when volume is less than the defined lower threshold.
For example, setting the volume threshold to 10% forces the script to identify candlestick patterns in which volume for the session (candle) is 10% greater than the volume moving average. All candlestick patterns with volume less than (1.10 * volume MA) are discounted.
The script counts the frequency of each pattern - the number of times the pattern occurred - in addition to the next candle's outcome.
Pertinent statistics are displayed in the table, which can be hidden.
I plan on working on the script quite a bit more; please comment a suggestion if you have one! What else should be included?
Candle relative powerThis indicator tries to measure the power of candle.
You can also integrate some candles to measure the power. The “Length” is for integrating candles. If the Length is equal 5, it means indicator calculate power of recent 5 candles.
The second editable factor in “Shadow index” which represent the power of shadows.
The last factor in Average Criteria which is the module of comparing the integrated candles to the past market moves.
This indicator do not supposed to create trading signals! But, you can see every time it breaks the static line it is a sign of bulls or bears power.
I personally use it as a candle power meter so I will evaluate the power of breakouts or trend continuations.
Candles Colored Green/Red According To Buy & Sell PressureCANDLES COLORED GREEN OR RED ACCORDING TO BUY & SELL PRESSURE
This indicator paints each candle green, red or blue depending on whether the buy/sell pressure for that candle is bullish, bearish or neutral.
***TURN OFF NORMAL CANDLE COLORS***
For this script to show properly on the chart, make sure you go to chart settings(gear icon in top right corner) and in the symbol tab, uncheck body, borders and wick.
***HOW TO USE***
When the directional movement index indicator shows more buying pressure than selling pressure, the candle will appear lime green. This indicates bullish buying pressure.
When the directional movement index indicator shows more selling pressure than buying pressure, the candle will appear red. This indicates bearish selling pressure.
When the directional movement index indicator shows the same amount of buy and sell pressure, the candle will appear blue. This indicates neutral buy/sell pressure.
Use the color changes to see if there is more buying or selling to pinpoint reversals and understand current market buying. Wait to enter or exit positions until the candles turn the opposite color.
***MARKETS***
This indicator can be used as a signal on all markets, including stocks, crypto, futures and forex.
***TIMEFRAMES***
This DMI color coded candlestick indicator can be used on all timeframes.
***TIPS***
Try using numerous indicators of ours on your chart so you can instantly see the bullish or bearish trend of multiple indicators in real time without having to analyze the data. Some of our favorites are our Auto Fibonacci, Directional Movement Index, Color Coded Buy & Sell Pressure Volume Profile, Auto Support And Resistance and Money Flow Index in combination with this Buy & Sell pressure Candle indicator.

M.Right Candlestick Patterns & Bulkowski Percentages 1.0Hello Traders!
As a fan of Bulkowski, I figured I'd release this for everyone's benefit as well.
The legendary candlestick pattern expert, Thomas Bulkowski, has over 35 years of trading and analysis experience and is the absolute go-to expert when it comes to candlestick pattern identification.
Bulkowski Candlestick Percentages from his site and books.
Source: Built in "All Candlestick Patterns"
In this version,
--> Added 8 Candles and removed some that are statistically insignificant and others that Bulkowski doesn't use (can add back if requested).
--> Added 2 Colors for Bullish and Bearish Continuations.
----> Assigned Colors Tested performance to Continuations.
--> Built-in Variables and Candles adjusted slightly to conform to Bulkowski pattern principles.
--> Moved inputs back to ABC order.
--> Decided to leave the theoretical performance positioning for the signal (i.e. Top for theoretically bearish ). However..
----> I adjusted the signal color to match Bulkowski's tested performance.
--> Removed Plot Close (obsolete)
--> Hover over signal to see both Theoretical and Tested Performance.
Figured I'd help give an edge to the @TradingView Community like so many before me have been able to.
Please feel free to add comments, share insight, and of course, like!
Cheers,

[CP]Pivot Boss Candlestick Scanner - No Repainting This indicator is based on the high probability candlestick patterns described in the ’Secrets of a Pivot Boss’ book.
The indicator does not suffer from repainting.
I have kept this indicator open source, so that you can take this indicator and design a complete trading system around it.
Although the patterns have some statistical edge in the markets, blindly using them as Buy/Sell Indicators will certainly result in a heavy loss.
I like some of these setups more than others, and I have listed them in the order of my likeness.
The first one I like the most, the last one, I like the least.
The patterns are universal and work well in both intraday, daily and even larger timeframes.
Signals in the example charts are manually marked by,
Hammer - profitable short signal
Rocket - profitable long signal
X - unprofitable long or short signal
GENERAL USER INPUTS:
These settings exist as the indicator uses ‘Labels’ to mark the patterns and Pine Script limits a maximum of 500 labels on a chart.
If you want to go back in the past and check how the indicator was doing, set the Start and End dates both and check the ’Use the date range above to mark the Candlestick Setups?’ option.
EXTREME REVERSAL SETUP:
This is by far my favorite setup in the lot. Classic Mean Reversion setup.
The logic, as explained in the book, goes like this,
1. The first bar of the pattern is about two times larger than the average size of the candles in the lookback period.
2. The body of the first bar of the pattern should encompass more than 50 percent of the bar’s total range, but usually not more than 85 percent.
3. The second bar of the pattern opposes the first.
The setup works extremely well in high beta stocks like Vedanta VEDL.
Feel free to play with the settings in order to better align this pattern with your favorite stock.
Check out the examples below,
No indicator is perfect, failed patterns are marked with an X.
OUTSIDE REVERSAL SETUP:
My second favorite setup, it is quite good at catching intraday trends.
Here’s the logic,
1. The engulfing bar of a bullish outside reversal setup has a low that is below the prior bar’s low and a close that is above the prior bar’s high. Reverse the conditions for bearish outside reversal.
2. The engulfing bar is usually 5 to 25 percent larger than the size of the average bar in the lookback period.
Settings for this pattern simply reflect these conditions. Feel free to modify them as you wish.
The pattern is pretty powerful and will sometimes help you catch literally all the highs and lows of the market, as shown in the examples of Vedanta VEDL and RELIANCE stocks below.
As usual, this pattern is not PERFECT either.
DOJI REVERSAL SETUP:
Doji candles signify market indecision and this pattern tries to profit off these market conditions.
Logic:
1. The open and close price of the doji should fall within 10 percent of each other, as measured by the total range of the candlestick.
2. For a bullish doji, the high of the doji candlestick should be below the ten-period simple moving average. Vice-versa for bearish.
3. For a bullish doji setup, one of the two bars following the doji must close above the high of the doji. Vice-versa for bearish.
Feel free to modify the settings and optimize according to the stock you are trading.
Don't optimize too much :)
This pattern works brilliantly well on larger intraday timeframes, like 15m/30m/60m.
This pattern also has a higher propensity to give false indications than the two described above.
Doji reversal typically helps to catch larger trend reversals. Check out the examples below from RELIANCE and NIFTY charts,
Note that the RELIANCE chart below is the same as shown for the Outside Reversal Setup above, notice the confluence of Outside
Reversal and Doji Reversal on the 31st August.
Confluence of patterns usually increases the probability of success.
RELIANCE 15m Chart - Pattern can catch nice trends on higher timeframes
NIFTY 15m Chart
WICK REVERSAL SETUP:
This pattern tries to capture candlesticks with large wick sizes, as they often indicate trend reversal when coupled with significant support and resistance levels.
Logic:
1. The body is used to determine the size of the reversal wick. A wick that is between 2.5 to 3.5 times larger than the size of the body is ideal.
2. For a bullish reversal wick to exist, the close of the bar should fall within the top 35 percent of the overall range of the candle.
3. For a bearish reversal wick to exist, the close of the bar should fall within the bottom 35 percent of the overall range of the candle.
This pattern must always be coupled with important support resistance levels, else there will be a lot of false signals.
The chart below is the same NIFTY chart as above with the Wick Reversal candles marked as well.
You can see that there are a lot of false signals, but the price also indicates ’pausing’ at important levels by printing a wick reversal setup.
You can use this information to your advantage when riding a trend.
FINAL WORDS:
Settings for various patterns simply reflect the logic described.
You will probably need to tweak and optimize the pattern settings for the stock that you are trading.
Higher Beta/Higher Volatility stocks are a great choice for these patterns.
Using these patterns at critical support and resistance levels will result in dramatically high accuracy.
Be creative and try to develop a proper system around this indicator, with rules for position sizing, stop loss etc.
You do not have to trade all the patterns. Even trading just one pattern with a proper system is good enough.
DO NOT USE THIS INDICATOR AS A BUY/SELL SYSTEM, YOU WILL LOSE MONEY.
Feel free to drop any feedback in the comments section below, or if you have any unique candlestick patterns that you would like me to code.
Candlestick RecognitionCandlestick Recognition
Version 1.0
Fun script to recognize and name candlesticks. Hamers and Highwaves and Marubozus oh my!
All candlestick names can be turned on or off in the settings since sometimes they stack close to each other and are hard to read. If you think I mislabeled any please provide me with an example of what you think it should be and I will review it to see if any changes need to be made. Please keep in mind that each stock will be a little different as the Candlestick Recognition uses ATR (Average True Range) for the calculations.
