CPR with inside candle, Pivot Points and 4EMA The CPR trading strategy is a technical analysis approach that combines multiple indicators to determine potential price levels and trading opportunities. The strategy uses three main components: Inside Candles, Pivot Points, and the 4EMA.
Inside Candles: The Inside Candle pattern is a candlestick pattern where the current candle has a lower high and a higher low than the previous candle. This pattern can indicate a period of consolidation or indecision in the market and can signal a potential reversal or continuation of the trend.
Pivot Points: Pivot Points are technical indicators that use the previous day's price data to calculate key levels of support and resistance for the current trading day. These levels can act as potential areas of buying or selling pressure and can help traders identify potential entry and exit points.
4EMA: The 4EMA is a short-term Exponential Moving Average that tracks the average price of an asset over the previous four periods. This indicator is used to help identify short-term trends in the market and can signal potential buying or selling opportunities.
To apply the CPR strategy, traders first look for Inside Candles on their chart, indicating a period of consolidation or indecision in the market. Next, they identify the Pivot Points for the current trading day, which can act as potential areas of support or resistance. Finally, traders use the 4EMA to confirm the direction of the trend and potential entry or exit points.
For example, if an Inside Candle forms at a Pivot Point level and the 4EMA is indicating an uptrend, this could be a potential buying opportunity. Conversely, if an Inside Candle forms at a Pivot Point level and the 4EMA is indicating a downtrend, this could be a potential selling opportunity.

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.
Candlestick Pattern IdentifierMy script builds upon another user-submitted script by rebuilding the logic used to identify candlestick patterns. The logic in my script is a mix of strict and lax guidelines to mitigate false flags and present valid buy and sell signals.
-To use this indicator, simply add it to any chart. It will identify trends on any time frame although the lower you go, the more signals you'll see and the higher probability of those signals being false flags. You can also disable any candlestick patterns that you feel are not as useful.
- This indicator works best with Stocks and also with Forex markets to a lesser extent.
- This indicator works the best on the Daily chart and also works (with varying degrees of success) on any timeframe at or above 1 hour. I've found that this indicator works the best when used in tandem with the Daily and Hourly charts with the Hourly chart being used to determine an entry point while the Daily chart is used for long term trend analysis.
Heikin-Ashi-Candles MTFHeikin-Ashi Higher Timeframe Candles
This indicator overlays higher-timeframe Heikin-Ashi candles (default: 5 minutes) onto a lower-timeframe chart (e.g., 1 minute). Instead of using standard candlesticks, it draws:
Semi-transparent rectangles to represent the candle bodies.
Vertical lines to represent wicks, centered on each body.
Key features:
Dynamic transparency: The current, still-forming higher-timeframe candle is plotted in green or red (depending on trend) with a separate, lighter transparency (default: 30) so you can easily distinguish it from completed candles.
Finalization on close: As soon as a higher-timeframe candle closes, its body and wicks update to the standard transparency level (default: 50), ensuring completed candles are visually distinct.
Customizable inputs: You can adjust
The higher timeframe (tf) for Heikin-Ashi calculations.
Body transparency for confirmed candles.
Transparency for unfinished candles.
Wick thickness.
Use case:
This is particularly useful for traders who analyze price action on lower timeframes but want to stay aware of the higher-timeframe Heikin-Ashi trend without switching charts. The fading effect on the active candle helps prevent confusion between fully formed candles and those still developing.
HTF Candles & ReversalsThis is a comprehensive multi-timeframe analysis tool designed to give you a broader perspective on market structure directly from your main chart. It overlays candles from up to six user-defined higher timeframes (HTF) and includes a built-in indicator to spot potential price reversals. This allows you to analyze the bigger picture and make more informed decisions without constantly switching between different chart layouts.
Key Features
Multi-Timeframe Candle Display: Renders candles from up to six different higher timeframes (the defaults are 5m, 15m, 1H, 4H, 1D, and 1W). You can see how the current price action fits within the larger trend.
Reversal Pattern Detection: The script identifies and highlights potential bullish and bearish reversal patterns. This works on both your main chart's candles and the displayed HTF candles, helping you spot potential shifts in momentum on multiple scales.
Imbalance (FVG) Highlighting: Automatically detects and draws Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) on the HTF candles, pointing out areas of inefficient price action that may act as magnets for future price movement.
Full Customization: You have complete control over the visual elements. Adjust the colors for candle bodies, borders, and wicks. Change the positioning of the HTF display, and toggle labels, timers, and imbalance boxes to create a clean workspace that fits your trading style.
How to Use This Indicator
Gain Market Context: Use the HTF candles to quickly gauge the dominant trend. For example, if the 4H and 1D candles are bullish, you might look for buying opportunities on your lower timeframe chart. The highs and lows of these HTF candles often serve as strong support and resistance levels.
Identify Reversals:
Triangles on the Main Chart: A green triangle below a candle suggests a potential bullish reversal, while a red triangle above suggests a potential bearish reversal. This pattern appears when a candle makes a new low/high but closes stronger/weaker than the previous one.
Colored HTF Candles: When an HTF candle is colored (lime for bullish, orange for bearish), it indicates that a reversal pattern has formed on that specific higher timeframe, which could signal a more significant change in market direction.
Utilize Imbalances: The highlighted FVG boxes can be treated as areas of interest. Price often revisits these zones, making them potential targets for trades or areas to watch for a reaction.
Settings Breakdown
Candle Color: Independently set the colors for bullish and bearish candle bodies, borders, and wicks.
Layout: Use the HTF Distance setting to control how far the displayed candles appear from the current price action.
Labels: Choose whether to display the timeframe name and a countdown timer for each HTF candle. You can position these labels at the top, bottom, or both.
Imbalances: Toggle the visibility of the FVG boxes and customize their color.
Reversal Indicator: Enable or disable the reversal triangles on your main chart and the special coloring for reversal candles on both the main chart and the HTF displays.

MTF Candles [Fadi x MMT]MTF Candles
Overview
The MTF Candles indicator is a powerful tool designed for traders who want to visualize higher timeframe (HTF) candles directly on their current chart. Built with flexibility and precision in mind, this Pine Script indicator displays up to six higher timeframe candles, complete with customizable styling, sweeps, midpoints, fair value gaps (FVGs), volume imbalances, and trace lines. It’s perfect for multi-timeframe analysis, helping traders identify key levels, market structure, and potential trading opportunities with ease.
Key Features
- Multi-Timeframe Candles : Display up to six higher timeframe candles (e.g., 5m, 15m, 30m, 4H, 1D, 1W) on your chart, with configurable timeframes and visibility.
- Sweeps Detection : Identify liquidity sweeps (highs/lows) with customizable line styles, widths, and colors, plus optional alerts for confirmed bullish or bearish sweeps.
- Midpoint Lines : Plot the midpoint (average of high and low) of the previous HTF candle, with customizable color, width, and style for enhanced market analysis.
- Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) : Highlight gaps between non-adjacent candles, indicating potential areas of interest for price action.
- Volume Imbalances : Detect and display volume imbalances between adjacent candles, aiding in spotting significant price levels.
- Trace Lines : Connect HTF candle open, close, high, and low prices to their respective chart bars, with customizable styles and optional price labels.
- Custom Daily Open Times : Support for custom daily candle open times (Midnight, 8:30, or 9:30) to align with specific market sessions.
- Dynamic Labels : Show timeframe names, remaining time until the next HTF candle, and interval labels (e.g., day of the week for daily candles) with adjustable positions and sizes.
- Highly Customizable : Fine-tune candle appearance, spacing, padding, and visual elements to suit your trading style.
How It Works
The indicator renders HTF candles as boxes (bodies) and lines (wicks) on the right side of the chart, with each timeframe offset for clarity. It dynamically updates candles in real-time, tracks their highs and lows, and displays sweeps and midpoints when conditions are met. FVGs and volume imbalances are calculated based on candle relationships, and trace lines link HTF candle levels to their originating bars on the chart.
Sweep Logic
- A bearish sweep occurs when the current candle’s high exceeds the previous candle’s high, but the close is below it.
- A bullish sweep occurs when the current candle’s low falls below the previous candle’s low, but the close is above it.
- Sweeps are visualized as horizontal lines and can trigger alerts when confirmed on the next candle.
Midpoint Logic
- A midpoint line is drawn at the average of the previous HTF candle’s high and low, extending until the next HTF candle forms.
- Useful for identifying potential support/resistance or mean reversion levels.
Imbalance Detection
- FVGs : Identified when a candle’s low is above the next-but-one candle’s high (or vice versa), indicating a price gap.
- Volume Imbalances : Detected between adjacent candles where the body of one candle doesn’t overlap with the next, signaling potential liquidity zones.

Consecutive CandlesSummary
This indicator helps visualize short-term momentum by automatically drawing boxes around sequences of consecutive same-colored candles (bullish or bearish). It's designed to quickly highlight periods of sustained buying or selling pressure directly on your chart.
How it Works
Consecutive Candle Detection: The script monitors the chart bar by bar, tracking consecutive candles where close > open (bullish) or close < open (bearish).
Box Drawing: When a sequence of same-colored candles reaches a user-defined minimum length (default is 3) and this sequence is then broken by an opposite-colored candle or a doji, a box is drawn.
Box Boundaries:
The top of the box is set to the highest high price reached during the sequence.
The bottom of the box is set to the lowest low price reached during the sequence.
The left edge of the box aligns with the start time of the first candle in the sequence.
The right edge of the box aligns with the end time of the last candle in the sequence.
Stability: Uses xloc = xloc.bar_time to ensure boxes remain accurately anchored to the price bars when zooming or panning the chart.
Real-time Extension: For active sequences meeting the minimum length on the latest developing bar, the box is optionally extended to the right.
Features
Automatically identifies and boxes sequences of 3 or more (customizable) consecutive bullish candles.
Automatically identifies and boxes sequences of 3 or more (customizable) consecutive bearish candles.
Extends box in real-time for active qualifying sequences.
Customizable minimum candle count (>= 2).
Customizable colors for bullish/bearish boxes and borders.
Settings
You can customize the indicator via the Settings menu (gear icon):
Minimum Consecutive Candles: Define how many candles in a row are needed to draw a box (Default: 3).
Bullish Box Color: Set the fill color for boxes around bullish sequences.
Bearish Box Color: Set the fill color for boxes around bearish sequences.
Box Border Color: Set the color for the border of all boxes.
Potential Use Cases
Momentum Identification: Quickly spot periods of strong, uninterrupted buying or selling.
Exhaustion/Reversal Signals: Very long sequences might indicate potential exhaustion, setting up reversal opportunities.
Consolidation Breakouts: A box forming after a period of tight consolidation can highlight the range just before a potential breakout.
Confirmation: Use the boxes as confirmation for entries or exits based on momentum shifts.
Disclaimer: This indicator provides visual aids based on price action. It should not be used as a standalone trading system. Always use indicators in conjunction with your own analysis and risk management rules.

Volatility-Driven CandleThis indicator identifies and highlights "volatility-driven candles" on a price chart, based on their body size relative to market volatility. It calculates the Average True Range (ATR) over a 14-period window to measure volatility. A candle is considered "volatility-driven" if its body (the difference between the close and open prices) exceeds a user-defined threshold, which is specified as a multiple of the ATR.
The script distinguishes between bullish and bearish volatility-driven candles:
Bullish volatility-driven candles (where the close is greater than the open) are marked with a blue label.
Bearish volatility-driven candles (where the close is less than the open) are marked with an orange label.
Additionally, the background color of the chart is shaded:
Blue for bullish volatility-driven candles.
Orange for bearish volatility-driven candles.
This script helps traders easily spot significant price movements relative to volatility, highlighting potential reversal points based on candle body size.

Engulfing Candlestick StrategyEver wondered whether the Bullish or Bearish Engulfing pattern works or has statistical significance? This script is for you. It works across all markets and timeframes.
The Engulfing Candlestick Pattern is a widely used technical analysis pattern that traders use to predict potential price reversals. It consists of two candles: a small candle followed by a larger one that "engulfs" the previous candle. This pattern is considered bullish when it occurs in a downtrend (bullish engulfing) and bearish when it occurs in an uptrend (bearish engulfing).
Statistical Significance of the Engulfing Pattern:
While many traders rely on candlestick patterns for making decisions, research on the statistical significance of these patterns has produced mixed results. A study by Dimitrios K. Koutoupis and K. M. Koutoupis (2014), titled "Testing the Effectiveness of Candlestick Chart Patterns in Forex Markets," indicates that candlestick patterns, including the engulfing pattern, can provide some predictive power, but their success largely depends on the market conditions and timeframe used. The researchers concluded that while some candlestick patterns can be useful, traders must combine them with other indicators or market knowledge to improve their predictive accuracy.
Another study by Brock, Lakonishok, and LeBaron (1992), "Simple Technical Trading Rules and the Stochastic Properties of Stock Returns," explores the profitability of technical indicators, including candlestick patterns, and finds that simple trading rules, such as those based on moving averages or candlestick patterns, can occasionally outperform a random walk in certain market conditions.
However, Jorion (1997), in his work "The Risk of Speculation: The Case of Technical Analysis," warns that the reliability of candlestick patterns, including the engulfing patterns, can vary significantly across different markets and periods. Therefore, it's important to use these patterns as part of a broader trading strategy that includes other risk management techniques and technical indicators.
Application Across Markets:
This script applies to all markets (e.g., stocks, commodities, forex) and timeframes, making it a versatile tool for traders seeking to explore the statistical effectiveness of the bullish and bearish engulfing patterns in their own trading.
Conclusion:
This script allows you to backtest and visualize the effectiveness of the Bullish and Bearish Engulfing patterns across any market and timeframe. While the statistical significance of these patterns may vary, the script provides a clear framework for evaluating their performance in real-time trading conditions. Always remember to combine such patterns with other risk management strategies and indicators to enhance their predictive power.
TechniTrend: Advance Custom Candle Finder (CCF)🟦 Description:
The TechniTrend: Advanced Custom Candle Finder (CCF) is a versatile tool designed to help traders identify custom candlestick patterns using various configurable criteria. This indicator provides a flexible framework to filter and highlight specific candles based on volume, volatility, candle characteristics, and other important metrics. Below is a detailed explanation of each filter and its customization options:
🟦 Volume-Based Filters
🔸Volume Spike Filter:
Enable filtering based on volume spikes. Use the Volume Spike Multiplier to define what constitutes a significant increase in volume compared to the average. A spike indicates unusually high trading interest.
🔸Volume Range Filter:
Filter candles based on specific volume ranges. Set Minimum Volume and Maximum Volume thresholds to isolate candles with trading volumes within your desired boundaries.
🟦 Candle Body & Wick Filters
🔸Body Size Filter:
Filter candles based on the size of their body. A Body Size Multiplier determines what is considered a large body relative to historical averages.
🔸Body Percentage Filter:
Filter based on the proportion of the body to the entire candle size. Use the Body Percentage Threshold to highlight candles where the body makes up a certain percentage of the total candle range.
🔸Wick-to-Body Ratio Filter:
Identify candles with specific wick-to-body ratios. A higher Wick-to-Body Ratio can indicate indecision or reversals.
🟦 Volatility & Range Filters
🔸Volatility Filter:
Highlight candles based on price changes relative to volume. The Volatility Multiplier sets the threshold for what is considered a volatile candle.
🔸Candle Range Filter:
Filter based on the range (High - Low) of each candle. Use Minimum Candle Range and Maximum Candle Range to specify your desired candle size in points or pips.
🔸Short-Term and Long-Term Volatility Filters:
Analyze volatility over different periods. Enable Short-Term Volatility or Long-Term Volatility filters to compare recent volatility against historical averages, helping you detect sudden market shifts.
🟦 Candle Color & Open/Close Filters
🔸Candle Color Filter:
Filter based on the candle's color. Choose between Bullish (close > open) or Bearish (close < open) to focus on specific market sentiments.
🔸Open/Close Price Range Filter:
Filter based on the difference between the open and close prices. Use Minimum Open/Close Range and Maximum Open/Close Range to specify your acceptable range in price movements.
🟦 Core Functionality
The CCF indicator combines these filters to provide a final signal whenever a candle meets all the enabled criteria. By default, it highlights any qualifying candle directly on the chart and changes the background color for added visibility.
🟦 Key Features:
🔸Highly Customizable Filters: Adjust the parameters for each filter to tailor the indicator to your specific needs.
🔸Multiple Conditions: Combine several conditions to identify complex candlestick patterns.
🔸Real-Time Alerts: Receive instant notifications when a matching candle pattern is found based on your custom criteria.
🟦 How to Use:
🔸Enable the filters you wish to apply (e.g., Volume Spike, Candle Body Size, Volatility).
🔸Adjust the thresholds for each filter to fine-tune the pattern recognition criteria.
🔸Observe the chart to see visual cues for candles that match your specified conditions.
🟦 Notes:
🔸Ensure that you clearly understand each filter’s role. Over-filtering with very strict criteria may reduce the number of signals.
🔸This indicator is designed to be a customizable tool, not providing buy or sell recommendations.
🔸Use in combination with other analysis tools and indicators for the best results.
Decoding the Volume of candlesThe indicator is designed for traders who are more interested in market structures and price action using volumes. Volume analysis can help traders build a clearer understanding of zones of buyer and seller interest, as well as liquidity gathering points (traders' stop levels).
Key Features:
The indicator visualizes on the chart the volumes selected according to the trader's chosen settings.
The indicator highlights candle volumes in selected colors, where the volume is greater individually than the volumes of the trader's chosen number of preceding candles. Or the volume that is greater than the sum of volumes of the trader's chosen number of preceding candles.
The indicator mark selected volumes on the chart based on the type of candle. The candle type (1, 2, or 3) is determined by its result (close) relative to other candles.
Volume marked for a type 3 candle draws the trader’s attention to the lack of results from the applied volume compared to the previous candle, indicating potential weakness of the candle’s owner. This is especially important in buyer or seller context areas.
Volume marked for a type 2 candle highlights the presence of results from the applied volume but only relative to the previous candle. In buyer or seller context areas, this can signal weakness of the candle’s owner.
Volume marked for a type 1 candle signals a strong result from the applied volume, indicating potential strength of the candle’s owner.
The marking of volumes can be displayed either on the main chart or on the volume chart, depending on the trader's preference. Colors and symbols for marking can be customized on the Style tab.
Volumes can be filtered on both the volume chart and the main chart according to their marking. This feature can be useful, for example, for traders who don’t work with signs of buyer or seller weakness. In such cases, they can filter out volumes only for type 1 candles.
Good luck exploring the impact of volumes on price behavior!

Here's an overview of how the indicator works:
1. Session Definition: The indicator defines four distinct trading sessions:
- London Session: Typically covering the European trading hours.
- New York AM Session: Representing the morning hours of the New York trading session.
- New York PM Session: Representing the afternoon hours of the New York trading session.
- Asia Session: Encompassing the trading hours of the Asian markets.
2. Configuration Options: Users can customize the behavior of the indicator through input options. For each session, users can enable or disable the display of session-specific candles.
3. Candle Coloring: The indicator determines the color of candles based on the following criteria:
- For each session, it checks whether the current candle's closing price is higher than its opening price.
- If the closing price is higher, the candle is considered bullish, and a user-defined green color is used for the candle.
- If the closing price is lower, the candle is considered bearish, and a user-defined red color is applied.
4. Display: The indicator then applies the calculated candle colors to the respective candles of each trading session on the price chart. This visual distinction helps traders quickly identify the prevailing trend during different market sessions.
To use the indicator, traders can overlay it on their price charts in TradingView. By enabling or disabling specific trading sessions, they can focus on the trends and price movements during those specific time periods.
Please note that the actual appearance of the indicator on the chart depends on the user's chosen settings for session enablement and color preferences.
Hide Active Candle [SteinG]Hide Active Candle
An essential tool for disciplined traders seeking to avoid making hasty decisions based on active bars that have not yet closed.
Have you ever found yourself eagerly anticipating an entry, only to be tempted by an active candle that starts to pull away? Or perhaps you've been caught in a trade where an active candle pushes against you, stirring unease and uncertainty. Fear not, for we have a solution!
"Hide Active Candle" is a simple Pine Script indicator designed to ghost the active bar on your chart, reinforcing the importance of patiently waiting for its closure before making any trading decisions. By masking the active candle, this indicator serves as a constant reminder to exercise caution and to base your actions on solid, confirmed information.
To make the most of this powerful tool, ensure that you are using a candlestick chart, as this script operates optimally within that framework. Follow these simple steps to get started:
1. Right-click on your chart and select "Settings..."
2. From the drop-down menu, choose "Symbol" under the "Chart Settings" section.
3. Disable every item in the list to fully utilize the capabilities of "Hide Active Candle."
But wait, there's more! We understand that each trader has unique preferences and requirements. That's why we've included customizable settings within the script to tailor it to your specific needs. You have the option to adjust the following parameters:
- Countdown seconds left : Specify the number of seconds before the bar closes when the current candle becomes visible.
- Bull candle color : Select the color that represents bullish candles on your chart.
- Bear candle color : Choose the color that indicates bearish candles.
- Equal candle color : Define the color for Doji star candles.
- Theme : Opt for a dark or light theme, as the active candle mask will be based on your chosen theme.
- Custom hidden color : Personalize the mask color according to your preferences.
By fine-tuning these settings, you can create a trading environment that perfectly suits your style and enhances your decision-making process.
Histogram Momentum Shaded CandlesDescription:
The Histogram Momentum Shaded Candles indicator (HMSC) is a powerful technical analysis tool that combines the concepts of the MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence) indicator and shaded candlestick visualization. It provides insights into momentum and trend strength by representing the MACD histogram as shaded candles on the chart.
How it Works:
The HMSC indicator calculates the MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence) using user-defined parameters such as the fast length, slow length, source, signal smoothing, and moving average types. It then calculates the MACD histogram by subtracting the signal line from the MACD line. The indicator transforms the histogram values into transparency levels for the shaded candles, representing bullish and bearish momentum.
Usage:
To effectively utilize the Histogram Momentum Shaded Candles indicator, follow these steps:
1. Apply the HMSC indicator to your chart by adding it from the available indicators.
2. Customize the MACD settings such as the fast length, slow length, source, signal smoothing, and moving average types according to your trading preferences.
3. Observe the shaded candles plotted on the chart:
- Bullish shaded candles (green by default) indicate positive momentum and potential buying pressure.
- Bearish shaded candles (red by default) indicate negative momentum and potential selling pressure.
4. Assess the intensity of the shaded candles:
5. Shading intensity is determined by the magnitude of the MACD histogram, with higher values resulting in more opaque candles.
6. The shading intensity reflects the strength of momentum and can help identify significant shifts in price action.
7. Combine the analysis of shaded candles with traditional candlestick patterns, trend lines, support and resistance levels, and other technical indicators to validate potential trade setups.
8. Implement appropriate risk management strategies, including setting stop-loss orders and position sizing, to manage your trades effectively and protect your capital.
Upper Candle Trends [theEccentricTrader]█ OVERVIEW
This indicator simply plots upper candle trends and should be used in conjunction with my Lower Candle Trends indicator as a visual aid to my Upper and Lower Candle Trend Counter indicator.
█ CONCEPTS
Green and Red Candles
• A green candle is one that closes with a close price equal to or above the price it opened.
• A red candle is one that closes with a close price that is lower than the price it opened.
Upper Candle Trends
• A higher high candle is one that closes with a higher high price than the high price of the preceding candle.
• A lower high candle is one that closes with a lower high price than the high price of the preceding candle.
• A double-top candle is one that closes with a high price that is equal to the high price of the preceding candle.
Lower Candle Trends
• A higher low candle is one that closes with a higher low price than the low price of the preceding candle.
• A lower low candle is one that closes with a lower low price than the low price of the preceding candle.
• A double-bottom candle is one that closes with a low price that is equal to the low price of the preceding candle.
Muti-Part Upper and Lower Candle Trends
• A multi-part higher high trend begins with the formation of a new higher high and continues until a new lower high ends the trend.
• A multi-part lower high trend begins with the formation of a new lower high and continues until a new higher high ends the trend.
• A multi-part higher low trend begins with the formation of a new higher low and continues until a new lower low ends the trend.
• A multi-part lower low trend begins with the formation of a new lower low and continues until a new higher low ends the trend.
█ FEATURES
Plots
Green up-arrows, with the number of the trend part, denote higher high trends. Red down-arrows, with the number of the trend part, denote lower high trends.
█ 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.

Confined Range Candle FinderThis indicator finds candlesticks which are confined within the range of a previous candlestick. This indicates volatility contraction which often leads to volatility expansion, i.e. large price movements.
While every confined range will contain at least 1 inside bar, this indicator differs from the Inside Bar Finder which only finds consecutive inside bars.
This indicator includes options such as:
- The minimum number of candlesticks confined within the range of a previous candlestick to trigger the indicator
- Labels to indicate the number of confined candles
- Signal lines to indicate the high and low of the containing candlestick
Try out this indicator with different options on different timeframes to see if confined ranges increase the probability of identifying the direction of price movements. Breaks or closes outside signal lines can be used to trigger trade signals.
MTF Stochastic Zones w/ Candle and Swing Hi/Lo IndicatorsMTF Stochastic Zones w/ Candle and Swing Hi/Lo Indicators by // © KaizenTraderB
This indicator will display the Stochastic RSI as color zones utilizing 3 Timeframes of your choice as well as key reversal candles:
Entry Timeframe StochRSI Crossovers and Long Wick Reversal Candles (Hammer and Hanging Man) and Engulfing Candles
That correlate with Swing Highs and Lows.
When the higher timeframe is bullish it will be green and when bullish, red.
When the middle timeframe is counter the higher, it will appear brownish.
The entry timeframe will print Candle Labels and Swing Highs and Lows at bullish and bearish Stochastic RSI crossovers when oversold and overbought, respectively,
In the direction of the higher timeframe directional bias when the middle timeframe is counter that direction to catch reversals in corrections.
(It also prints Bull/Bear StochRSI Crossovers that correlated with Swing Highs and Lows that are not Hammers, Hanging Men or Engulfing Candles.)
The options allow you to turn the zones, swing highs and lows, candle indicators and entry StochRSI Crossovers on and off, as well as which Timeframes you choose to view.
Entry - 1Hr, 15m, 5m or 1m Middle Timeframe - Daily, 4Hr, 1Hr or 15m Higher Timeframe - Monthly, Weekly, Daily, 4Hr or 1Hr
You can change the Swing High and Low Lookback periods, as well as
The Stochastic RSI Lookback for each of the three timeframes and the level of Overbought and Oversold:
When 8 is chosen for RSI Lookback, Stochastic Lookback = 5, SmoothK = 3, Smooth D = 3 For 13 - 8, 5, 5 For 21 - 13, 8, 8 For 34 - 21, 13, 13
Its good practice to adjust settings so Higher Timeframe zones (green/red) correlate with longer trend movements,
Medium Timeframe with corrections and reversal areas (brown) and Entry Timeframe with key reversal candles.
For example, to adjust the Daily Higher Timeframe, turn the Higher Timeframe to Daily, turn off the others and bring up the Daily Chart.
Look at chart for last 200 bars or so and go through the different settings until you find the one that best correlates with recent past price action.
Do the same procedure for the Middle and Entry Timeframe. Once all the settings are how you prefer, view the Indicator on the Entry Timeframe to find trades.
Coding included to prevent repainting
Can be used in conjunction with the MTF Stochastic RSI w/ Zones which is displayed in the lower panel.
Need the same settings in both indicators for them to correlate or use different settings for different views,

I will soon be releasing a Strategy based on this indicator!
