Momentum Candle V3 by Sekolah TradingMomentum Candle v3 by Sekolah Trading
Description:
Momentum Candle v3 is a technical indicator designed to identify market momentum signals based on price movement within a single candle. The indicator measures the size of the candle's body and wick to determine if the market is showing strong bullish or bearish momentum.
Key Features:
Candle Size: Measures price movement within a single candle to assess market momentum.
Short Wick: Focuses on wick length, with short wicks indicating that the closing price is more significant than the opening price.
Bullish/Bearish Momentum: Provides bullish signals when the closing price is higher than the open, and bearish signals when the closing price is lower than the open.
Customizable Minimum Body: Users can adjust the minimum body size for XAUUSD and USDJPY pairs according to their trading preferences.
Timeframe: Works on M5 and M15 timeframes for XAUUSD and USDJPY currency pairs.
How to Use:
Bullish Signal: The indicator signals bullish momentum when the candle body is sufficiently large and the wick is short, with the closing price higher than the open.
Bearish Signal: The indicator signals bearish momentum when the candle body is sufficiently large and the wick is short, with the closing price lower than the open.
Pip Parameters: Adjust the pip values for XAUUSD and USDJPY according to market conditions or your trading preferences.
Note: This indicator is a tool for technical analysis and does not guarantee specific trading results. It is recommended to use it alongside other strategies and analyses for better accuracy.
Realistic Backtest Results:
To ensure transparency and honesty in the backtest, here are some key factors to consider:
Position Size: The backtest uses a realistic position size of about 5-10% of the account equity per trade.
Commission & Slippage: A commission of 0.1% per trade and slippage of 1 pip were used in the backtest simulation to reflect real market conditions.
Number of Trades: The backtest sample includes more than 100 trades for a representative result.
Example of Backtest Results:
Profitability: The backtest results on XAUUSD and USDJPY show consistent performance with this strategy on the M5 and M15 timeframes.
Commission and Slippage: Adjusting for commission and slippage showed better accuracy under more realistic market scenarios.
How to Use the Indicator:
Signals from this indicator can be used to confirm market momentum in trending conditions. However, it is highly recommended to combine this indicator with other technical analysis tools to minimize the risk of false signals.
Important Notes:
Honesty & Transparency: This indicator is designed to provide signals based on technical analysis and does not guarantee specific trading results.
No Over-Claims: The backtest results displayed represent realistic scenarios and are not intended to promise certain profits.

Momentum Candle V2 by Sekolah Trading📌 Momentum Candle V2 by Sekolah Trading – Pair-Based Volatility & Wick Ratio Filter
This script provides a structured and adaptive approach to detecting high-probability momentum candles in intraday markets. It dynamically adjusts pip thresholds and wick filtering conditions based on the selected symbol and timeframe, making it highly practical for real-time trading.
🔍 Concept and Originality
Momentum Candle V2 by Sekolah Trading implements a custom-built methodology combining:
Dynamic Pip Calibration
For each supported instrument (e.g., XAUUSD, USDJPY, GBPUSD, AUDUSD, EURUSD, BTCUSD), the user can define a pip threshold that determines the minimum valid body size for momentum candles. These thresholds are tailored for each pair and timeframe (M5, M15, H1), ensuring the logic adjusts to different volatility profiles.
Wick-to-Body Ratio Filtering
The script filters out candles with large wicks by requiring that total wick length (upper + lower) be no more than 30% of the full candle range. This helps identify decisive candles with minimal rejection.
Directional Validation
Bullish momentum is defined as: Close > Open with a shorter upper wick.
Bearish momentum is: Close < Open with a shorter lower wick.
Real-Time Timing Filter
Alerts are only triggered when the current candle is between 20 and 90 seconds from closing, which reduces noise and encourages confirmation-based entry.
Non-Repainting Logic
All calculations run in real-time with confirmed candles only — no lookahead or future leak.
📊 Visual Output – How to Read the Chart
When the conditions above are met, the script displays triangle markers on the chart:
🔺 Red downward triangle above the candle: valid bearish momentum signal
🔻 Blue upward triangle below the candle: valid bullish momentum signal
These shapes appear on live bars during the final moments of the candle to alert traders to potential confirmed momentum.
🔔 Alert Conditions
Two alert types are provided:
Momentum Bullish: Large bullish candle with small upper wick, during last 20–90s of bar
Momentum Bearish: Large bearish candle with small lower wick, same timing window
Alerts are designed for precision entries at candle close.
🧭 How to Use
Apply the script to a 5m, 15m, or 1h chart.
Configure pip thresholds for your preferred pairs from the input settings.
Watch for triangle markers near the close of each candle:
Blue = potential bullish momentum
Red = potential bearish momentum
Set alerts:
Go to Alerts → Select Momentum Bullish or Momentum Bearish
Frequency: Once Per Bar
Customize message: e.g. “Momentum Bullish on XAUUSD M15”
Combine signals with:
EMA, S/R, or trend filters
Volume/Order Flow
Liquidity zone or breakout context
