Wick Strength [MS]

Overview
The Wick Strength indicator is a unique script designed to measure and visualize the relative strength of candlestick wicks over time. By analyzing the relationship between upper and lower wicks, this indicator provides insights into potential market dynamics and price action patterns.

How It Works
The Wick Strength indicator calculates the "strength" of candlestick wicks by comparing the upward and downward movements within each candle's range. This calculation results in a dynamic line plot that represents the evolving wick strength across your chosen timeframe.
Strength is not range-bound, allowing the score to reach extremes and be compared relatively across time.

Interpretation
  • Positive values indicate stronger upper wicks (potential bearish pressure)
  • Negative values suggest stronger lower wicks (potential bullish pressure)
  • Extreme readings might signal overextended moves or potential reversals


Key Features
Measures relative wick strength candle by candle
Smooths the values by summation based on user preference
Adaptable to all timeframes and markets

Potential Applications
While extensive backtesting has not been performed, the Wick Strength indicator may offer valuable insights for:
  • Identifying potential divergences between price action and wick strength
  • Spotting changes in market sentiment or volatility
  • Complementing other technical analysis tools for a more comprehensive trading approach
  • Developing unique trading strategies based on wick behavior
