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.

Papercuts Recency CandlesPapercuts Recency Candles
V0.8 by Joel Eckert @PapercutsTrading
***This is currently an experimental visual exploratory concept.***
*** Experimental tools should only be explored by fellow coders and experienced traders.***
DESCRIPTION:
As coders, how can we seamlessly transition between actual and smoothed price data sets as data ages?
This is a visual experiment to see if and how data can be smoothly transitioned from one value to another over a set number of candles. If we visualize a chart in 3 zones, a head, a body, and a tail we can start to understand how this could work. The head zone would represent the first data set of actual asset prices. The body zone would represent the transition period from the first to the to the second data set. Last, the tail zone would represent the second data set made of a Hull Moving Average of the asset.
CONCEPT:
It is conceived that data and position precision constantly shift as they decay or age, therefore making older price levels act more like price regions or zones vs exact price points. This is what I am calling Recency.
This indicator utilizes the concept of "Recency" to explore the possibility of a new style of candle. It aims to maintain accurately on recent prices action but loosen up accuracy on older price action. The very nature of this requires ALTERING HISTORICAL DATA within the body zone or transition candles to achieve the effect. It is similar to trying to merge a line chart type with a candle chart type.
This experiment of using recency for candles was to create candles that stay more accurate near current price but fade away into a simple line as they age out, resulting in a simplified view of the big picture which consists of older price action.
This experimental design theoretically will help you stay focused only on what is currently unfolding and to minimize distractions from older price nuances.
USAGE:
WHO:
This is not recommended for new traders or novices that are unfamiliar with standard tools. Standardized tools should always be used to get grounded and build a foundation.
Active traders who are familiar with trading comfortably should experiment with this to see if they find it interesting or usable.
Pine coders may find this concept interesting enough, and may adapt the idea to other elements of their own scripts if they find it interesting… I just ask they give credit where credit is due.
HOW:
The best way to visualize how this works is to do the following:
Load it on a chart.
Turn off Standard candles in Chart Setting of the current window. I actually just turn off the bodies and borders, and dim the old wicks as I like the way the old wicks look when left alone with these new candles.
Enable chart replay at a faster speed, like 3x, and play back the chart to watch the behavior of the candles.
You’ll be able to see how the head of the candle type preserves OHLC, and indicates direction but as the candle starts to age it progressively flowers into the HMA
While it plays back try adjusting settings to see how they affect behavior.
You can see the data average in real-time which often reveals how unstable actual price noise really is.
The head candle diagonals indicate the candle body direction.
SETTINGS:
Coloring: You can choose your own bullish or bearish colors to match your scheme.
Price Line: The price line is colored according to the trend and
Head Length: These candles are true to the source high and low. They remain slightly brighter than transition candles. We have a max of 50 to keep things responsive.
Time Decay Length: This is the amount of candles it takes to transition to the tail. Max is 300 to keep things responsive.
Decay Continuity: This forces transition candles to complete the HMA curve instead of creating gaps when conforming to it. The best way to visualize this feature is to run a 3x replay of an asset, and toggle the result on and off. On is preferred.
Tail HMA Length: This is the smoothing amount for the resulting HMA stepline that calculates every close, but has a delayed draw until after the transition candles. You can optionally turn off the delayed visibility to help with comprehension.
Tail HMA Weight: This is simply an option to make the tail thicker or thinner. This also adjusts the border on the head candles to help them stand out.
Show Side Bias Dots: Default true: Draws a dot when bias to one side changes to help keep you on the right side of trade. Side bias is simply the alignment of 3 moving averages in one direction.
IMPORTANT NOTES:
You'll have to turn off or dim the standard candles in your view "Chart Settings" to see this properly.
Be aware that since the candles are based on boxes and utilize the “recency concept”, which means their data decays and changes as it ages. This results in a cleaner chart overall, but exact highs and lows will be averaged out as the data decays, forming a Hull Moving Average stepline of your defined length once decay has finished.
SUMMARY OF HOW IT WORKS:
First it takes candle information and creates unique boxes that represent each candle based on the high and low. It utilizes boxes because standard candles once written, cannot be later altered or removed… which is a key element for this effect to work.
Next it creates a second box and line from open to close for the body of the Head candles. This indicates direction at a glance.
As candles age beyond the defined distance of the “Head” they enter the "Body" aka "Time Decay" zone. Here the accuracy of the high and low will be averaged down using an incremental factor of the HMA, defined by "Time Decay Length" amount of candles.
The resulting tail is an HMA of Tail HMA Length. This tail is always calculate at close, but is not drawn instantly. The draw is delayed so that there is not overlapping data, and this makes the effect look more elegant.
There are also two EMAs within the script that do nothing but help candle coloring and help provide a trade side bias. When both EMA's and the HMA align, a side bias is defined. Only when the side bias changes will a new dot is formed.
Head candles have been simplified from previous versions to be easier to read at a a glance.
The Golden Candlestick PatternThe Golden pattern is a three-candlestick configuration based on a variation of the golden ratio (2.618) from the Fibonacci sequence.
The bullish Golden pattern is composed of a normal bullish candlestick with any type of body, followed by a bigger bullish candlestick with a close price that is at least 2.618 times the size of the first candlestick (high to low). Finally, there must be an important condition that is, a third candlestick that comes back to test the open of the second candlestick from where the entry is given.
The bearish Golden pattern is composed of a normal bearish candlestick with any type of body, followed by a bigger bearish candlestick with a close price that is at least 2.618 times the size of the first candlestick (high to low). Finally, there must be an important condition that is, a third candlestick that comes back to test the open of the second candlestick from where the entry is given.
Lower time frame Intrabar CandlesI was looking for an indicator to show me what a lower time frame is doing at the start, middle, and end of the candle, but I couldn't find one, hench,
I made my own using Tradingview latest capabilities to fetch a lower time frame from a higher time frame chart.
For example, if your chart is 1 hour and this indicator is set to a lower time frame of 15 minutes, then the Start, Middle, or End (Select which in settings) of the 15min candle will be displayed overlaying the 1-hour candle.
This will always show you what the lower time frame candle is currently doing without the need to open an additional lower time frame chart. How cool is that?
Remember to select a lower time frame in the settings than the chart time frame for it to work as expected.
Enjoy :)
-=== Notes ===-
* The lower time frame candles BORDER is set to WHITE by default, however, you can adjust the color of the candle (wicks, body, and border) of the 'LTF Candle' indicator inside its Settings -> Style
* Suitable for candles and designed to work in historical and real time.
* Added optional label to show lower time frame values (can be disabled via indicator settings).
* You can adjust the visuals of the chart candles at Chart Settings -> Symbol -> Body, Borders, or Wicks to visually see better the lower time frame candles.
There is also a similar concept volume-based using histogram, stay tuned.

Pullback Candles (Candlestick Analysis) Guaranteed Winners!!!!Pullback Candle will signal when price is at the end of a pullback and entering a balance phase in the market (works on all markets)
Also we can expect a Pullback Candle during flash crashes 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 Low areas and appear when below an moving average which can be changed in the settings.
This candle will work on all timeframes - HTF provided very good rexpectancy whereas the LTF has a slightly less expectancy.
This candle can be alerted to signal the Pullback 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 Pullback Candle or use ATR value
4) Trade with the trend ie only bullish price action
5) This candle can catch falling knifes - we had one on LUNA before the rally to $7.50
6) Trading with a confluence along with the Pullback is better than solely trading this candle
Please leave a comment.
If we get to 100 likes i will publish the script.
Have a good weekend :)
Engulfing Candle IndicatorThis script shows you where a candle is either bullish or bearish engulfing the previous candle.
A GREEN triangle below the bar pointing UP indicates that the candle is BULLISH engulfing the previous candle
A RED triangle ABOVE the bar pointing DOWN indicates that the candle is BEARISH engulfing the previous candle
CCPD Candle Color Price DetectorThe "CCPD Candle Color Price Detector" is a custom indicator developed for TradingView, a popular platform for technical analysis and trading. This indicator assists traders in identifying potential trend reversals and assessing market sentiment based on candlestick color changes and key price levels.
This indicator operates as follows:
Color Change Detection: It primarily focuses on the color of candlesticks (green for bullish and red for bearish). When a candlestick closes higher than it opens, it is considered green (bullish), and when it closes lower, it is red (bearish).
High and Low Analysis: The indicator calculates the highest high and lowest low over a user-defined number of bars (specified by the 'Bars for High/Low' input parameter). This helps identify recent price extremes.
Midpoint Calculation: It then computes the midpoint between the highest high and lowest low, effectively determining a central reference point within the specified period.
Signal Generation: Buy and sell signals are generated based on the relationship between the current candlestick's close price, the midpoint, and the candlestick color. Buy signals occur when a green candle closes above the midpoint, suggesting potential bullish momentum. Conversely, sell signals trigger when a red candle closes below the midpoint, indicating possible bearish pressure.
Visualization: The indicator visualizes the highest high, lowest low, midpoint, and additional lines to aid in understanding the price action and potential reversal points.
Alerts: It provides alerts for buy and sell signals, allowing traders to receive notifications when potential trading opportunities arise.
Usage:
Traders can utilize the "CCPD Candle Color Price Detector" in the following ways:
Trend Reversal Identification: This indicator can help traders spot potential trend reversals by signaling when candlestick colors change and close near the midpoint. Buy and sell signals offer entry points for trades based on these reversals.
Confirmation Tool: It can be used in conjunction with other technical analysis tools to confirm trading decisions. For example, a buy signal from this indicator, coupled with a bullish trendline break or a bounce from a key support level, may provide a stronger bullish signal.
Risk Management: By understanding potential reversal points and using stop-loss orders, traders can better manage their risk and protect their capital when entering positions based on the indicator's signals.
Customization: The indicator allows users to adjust the number of bars for high/low calculations, making it adaptable to different trading strategies and timeframes.
In summary, the "CCPD Candle Color Price Detector" is a versatile indicator that can aid traders in spotting potential trend changes, enhancing trading decisions, and managing risk effectively. However, like any trading tool, it should be used in conjunction with other analysis methods and risk management strategies for optimal results.
RSI Candle Trend🎯 Purpose:
This TradingView script is designed to visualize trend strength using RSI values as candle data, instead of traditional price candles. It transforms RSI data into custom candles using various smoothing and filtering methods (like Heikin-Ashi, Linear Regression, Rational Quadratic Filter, or McGinley Dynamic). It allows traders to:
📌Track RSI-based momentum using visual candle representation
📌Apply advanced smoothing/filters to the RSI to reduce noise
📌Highlight candle trend strength using dynamic coloring
📌Identify overbought/oversold zones using reference lines (RSI 80 and 20)
🧩 How It Works:
It calculates RSI values for open, high, low, close prices.
These RSI values are then optionally smoothed with user-selected moving averages (EMA, SMA, etc.).
Depending on the selected mode (Normal, Heikin-Ashi, Linear, Rational Quadratic), the RSI values are transformed into synthetic candles.
Candles are colored cyan (uptrend) or red (downtrend) based on RSI movement.
⚙️ Key Inputs:
Method: Type of moving average to smooth the RSI (e.g. EMA, SMA, VWMA, etc.)
Length: Length for RSI and smoothing filters
Candle: Type of candle transformation (Normal, Heikin-Ashi, Linear, Rational Quadratic)
Rational Quadratic: Parameter for the Rational Quadratic smoothing method
📊 Outputs:
Custom candles plotted using RSI-transformed values
Candle colors based on RSI strength:
Cyan for strong bullish RSI movement
Red for strong bearish RSI movement
Horizontal lines at RSI levels 80 and 20 (overbought/oversold)
🧠 Why Use This Indicator?
Unlike traditional RSI indicators that show a line, this tool:
Converts RSI into candle-style visualization
Helps traders visually interpret trend strength, reversals, or continuation patterns
Offers more refined control over RSI behavior and filtering
Provides a unique blend of momentum and candle analysis
❗Important Note:
This script is provided for educational purposes and does not constitute financial advice. Traders and investors should conduct their research and analysis before making any trading decisions.
HTF CandlesHTF Candles, Plot of a Higher/Lower Timeframe Candles on any chart.
This HTF / LTF candle plot displays the previous 3 daily candles with the current update of the price with reference to a lower time frame.
Candles includes 3 Candles of HTF
last HTF candle includes 4 previous candles from LTF

these OHLC values act as Support and Resistance With reference to current Price.
very useful in making HTF and LTF analysis with reference to current timeframe.
[ROC3] Rate of Change Candle ColorROC is a statistical indicator which tracks how much a security's price has changed over a certain period, showing whether momentum is picking up or slowing down. It’s a handy tool because it helps traders spot trend changes and understand how strong a trend is.
My ROC3 indicator will color the candlesticks based on the Rate of Change (ROC) and its Exponential Moving Average (EMA). This indicator helps traders visually identify bullish and bearish trends by applying color to the candles, making it easier to spot momentum shifts and trend changes.
How It Works:
Rate of Change (ROC): Calculates the percentage change in the price over a specified number of bars. This indicator measures the speed at which price changes.
EMA of ROC: Applies an Exponential Moving Average to the ROC values to provide a smoothed benchmark. The EMA helps to reduce noise and make trend identification more reliable.
Coloring Logic:
Bullish Candles (Green): When the current ROC is higher than the EMA of the ROC.
Bearish Candles (Red): When the current ROC is lower than the EMA of the ROC.
Settings:
ROC Length (Default: 60): The number of bars used to calculate the Rate of Change. Adjust this parameter to change the sensitivity of the ROC calculation.
ROC EMA Length (Default: 7): The number of bars used to calculate the Exponential Moving Average of the ROC. This length determines how smooth the EMA is. A shorter length reacts faster to price changes, while a longer length provides a smoother, slower response.
How to Use:
Apply the Indicator: Add the Rate of Change Candle Color indicator to your TradingView chart.
Interpret the Colors:
Green Candles: Indicate bullish momentum. The current ROC is greater than its EMA, suggesting upward pressure.
Red Candles: Indicate bearish momentum. The current ROC is less than its EMA, suggesting downward pressure.
Adjust Settings: Customize the ROC Length and ROC EMA Length based on your trading strategy. Shorter ROC lengths may capture more short-term trends, while longer lengths provide a broader view.
Combine with Other Indicators: Use the in conjunction with other technical indicators or chart patterns to enhance your trading analysis.
Example Use Case:
Trend Confirmation: Use the color changes to confirm bullish or bearish trends. Green candles can confirm uptrends, while red candles may signal downtrends or potential reversals.
Momentum Analysis: Monitor how frequently the ROC crosses above or below its EMA to gauge momentum strength and make informed trading decisions.
Note:
This indicator is designed to assist with trend analysis and should be used as part of a broader trading strategy. Always conduct your own research and analysis before making trading decisions.

L2 Candle Pattern ScalperLevel: 2
Background
Japanese candlesticks provide more detailed and accurate information about price movements compared to bar charts. They provide a graphical representation of the supply and demand behind the price promotions for each period. Each candlestick contains a central part that indicates the distance between the opening and closing of the security being traded, the area called the body.
Scalping is a trading strategy that aims to take advantage of minor changes in the stock price. Traders using this strategy place anywhere from 10 to a few hundred trades in a single day with the belief that small moves in the stock price are easier to catch than large ones. Traders who implement this strategy are known as scalpers. Lots of small wins can easily lead to big wins if a strict exit strategy is used to prevent big losses.
Function
L2 Candle Pattern Scalper utilizes candle pattern to decide long and short entry signal. It use inherent candles' relationship nearby to judge the market trend is up or down and decide to long or short.
Signal
buysmall --> long entry
exitred --> short entry
Pros and Cons
Pros:
1. its response is fast because OHLC candle is the raw source of market
2. it is suitable for scalping because it studies nearby candles to judge very short term trend change
Cons:
1. Mid-long term change is missing from this indicator, although I use fast and slow lines to indicate the mid-term trend.
2. No stop loss or take profit scheme is introduced.
Remarks
This is promising but need efforts to refine it.

In real life, I am a prolific inventor. I have successfully applied for more than 60 international and regional patents in the past 12 years. But in the past two years or so, I have tried to transfer my creativity to the development of trading strategies. Tradingview is the ideal platform for me. I am selecting and contributing some of the hundreds of scripts to publish in Tradingview community. Welcome everyone to interact with me to discuss these interesting pine scripts.
The scripts posted are categorized into 5 levels according to my efforts or manhours put into these works.
Level 1 : interesting script snippets or distinctive improvement from classic indicators or strategy. Level 1 scripts can usually appear in more complex indicators as a function module or element.
Level 2 : composite indicator/strategy. By selecting or combining several independent or dependent functions or sub indicators in proper way, the composite script exhibits a resonance phenomenon which can filter out noise or fake trading signal to enhance trading confidence level.
Level 3 : comprehensive indicator/strategy. They are simple trading systems based on my strategies. They are commonly containing several or all of entry signal, close signal, stop loss, take profit, re-entry, risk management, and position sizing techniques. Even some interesting fundamental and mass psychological aspects are incorporated.
Level 4 : script snippets or functions that do not disclose source code. Interesting element that can reveal market laws and work as raw material for indicators and strategies. If you find Level 1~2 scripts are helpful, Level 4 is a private version that took me far more efforts to develop.
Level 5 : indicator/strategy that do not disclose source code. private version of Level 3 script with my accumulated script processing skills or a large number of custom functions. I had a private function library built in past two years. Level 5 scripts use many of them to achieve private trading strategy.
Function To Candles - Another way to see indicatorsIntroduction
There are different and better way's to see price data, a candlestick chart is one of the best way to see the price since you have access to the open/high/low/close information, this is really efficient and can allow for naked non parametric trading strategies (candlesticks patterns) . But what about making candles out of indicators ? There are tons of studies about candlesticks patterns in price data but none (?) about candlestick patterns using indicator data, therefore i made this script in order to show candles from various indicators, i also made an heikin-ashi mode.
Rsi To Candles
All the indicators are use the open/high/low/close price as input in order to return candles. length control the indicator period.
Stochastic To Candles
The stochastic oscillator is restrained in a range of 0/100, therefore when equal to 0 or 100 the candles can be flat.
Rate Of Change To Candles
The rate of change don't distort price as heavily as other indicators since its based on differencing.
Center Of Gravity To Candles
The center of gravity (cog) is defined from tradingview as "an indicator based on statistics and the Fibonacci golden ratio", its not an indicator i'am familiar with and i don't know if its the same proposed by Elhers. The candles are smooth, high length can flatten the candles heavily making them hard to see.
Correlation Oscillator
In a range of -1/1 this indicator is quite smooth and can also flatten candles.
Patterns And Heikin-Ashi
There are tons of patterns that can be generated from candlesticks, they can be applied to this indicator as well.
The indicator can show an heikin-ashi mode, heikin-ashi candlestick use averaging to plot candles, this is why they appear smoother, some signals generated from heikin-ashi candles are :
Bullish body with no lower shadows = Strong Uptrend
Bearish body with no higher shadows = Strong Downtrend
High range and small body = Indecision/Risk of reversal
Conclusion
I made an indicator able to draw candles from other indicators, those candles contain various information that can generate decision from patterns. I hope you find a use to it, if its the case share your findings with me, maybe that you will even be able find a new candlestick pattern :)
Thanks for reading !
Fork Handles by @treypeng
Candle based indicator that shows swing highs and lows (pivots).
It draws an up or down arrow for simple three candle 'single' swings.
For stronger five candle 'double' swings, it colours the candle. Good for highlighting stronger reversals.
Both of these stylings can be toggled on/off individually.
Default colours
Swing HIGH on an UP candle: bright green
Swing HIGH on an DOWN candle: bright red
Swing LOW on an UP candle: blue

Big Candle Touches Bollinger BandWhat It Does:
This indicator helps you spot important trading signals by combining Bollinger Bands with big candles.
Key Features:
Bollinger Bands: These bands show the average price (middle band) and the range of price movement (upper and lower bands) over a set period. The bands widen when prices are more volatile and narrow when they are less volatile.
Big Candle Detection: A "big candle" is a candle that has a larger body compared to the average price movement over a period. This is determined using the Average True Range (ATR), which measures market volatility.
How It Works:
Detects Big Candles: It checks if a candle’s body (the difference between its open and close prices) is bigger than usual, based on a multiplier of the ATR.
Touching Bollinger Bands: It looks for candles that touch or cross the upper or lower Bollinger Bands.
Highlights Important Signals:
Sell Signal: When a big candle touches the upper Bollinger Band, it marks it as a "Sell" signal with a red label.
Buy Signal: When a big candle touches the lower Bollinger Band, it marks it as a "Buy" signal with a green label.
Alerts:
You'll get alerts when a big candle touches the upper or lower Bollinger Bands, so you don’t miss these potential trading opportunities.
Visuals:
Bollinger Bands: Shown as three lines on the chart — the upper band (red), the lower band (green), and the middle band (blue).
Labels: Red labels for sell signals and green labels for buy signals when a big candle touches the bands.
This indicator helps you identify potential trading opportunities by focusing on significant price movements and how they interact with the Bollinger Bands.

squeeze candles with volume Function :
This indicator was designed to detect specific candles called “squeeze”. These candles are characterized by a relatively small body (the difference between the opening and closing price) and long shadows (the distance between the high and low prices), accompanied by significant volume. They often indicate a period of increased volatility or a potential trend reversal.
Use :
Visual detection:
Candles identified as "squeeze" are highlighted in red on the chart.
An “S” icon appears above each detected squeeze candle.
Alerts:
The indicator emits an audible and visual alert when a squeeze candle with high volume is detected (if alerts are enabled).
Market analysis:
This indicator is particularly useful for identifying trading opportunities during periods when the market is showing signs of compression or impending volatility.
Customizable settings:
Minimum volume: Defines the threshold at which the volume is considered high.
Maximum body/shadow ratio: Allows you to adjust the sensitivity to detect squeeze candles (the lower the ratio, the smaller the detected candles will have in relation to their shadows).
Benefits :
Provides accurate alerts on key market candles.
Helps anticipate large movements through analysis of volume and candle characteristics.
Adaptable to different strategies thanks to adjustable parameters.
Ideal for:
Traders who want to identify areas of potential volatility or reversal signals in the market, regardless of the asset or time frame used.

Detailed Description
Input Variables
Volume Multiplier (`volMultiplier`) : Detects high-volume candles using this multiplier. Default is 5.0.
Support Lookback Period (`supportLookback`) : The period over which support levels are calculated. Default is 150.
ATR Multiplier (`atrMultiplier`) : Ensures the candle's range is a multiple of the ATR. Default is 10.0.
Small Volume Multiplier Threshold (`smallThreshold`) : Threshold for small dots. Default is 5.
Normal Volume Multiplier Threshold (`normalThreshold`) : Threshold for normal dots. Default is 10.
Large Volume Multiplier Threshold (`largeThreshold`) : Threshold for large dots. Default is 15.
Functionality
High Volume Detection : The script calculates the simple moving average (SMA) of the volume and checks if the current volume exceeds the SMA by a specified multiplier.
```pine
smaVolume = ta.sma(volume, supportLookback)
isHighVolume = volume > smaVolume * volMultiplier
```
Support Level Detection : Determines the lowest low over the lookback period to identify significant support levels.
```pine
supportLevel = ta.lowest(low , supportLookback)
isLowestLow = low == supportLevel
```
ATR Range Condition : Calculates the ATR and ensures the candle's range is significant compared to the ATR.
```pine
atr = ta.atr(supportLookback)
highestHigh = ta.highest(high, supportLookback)
rangeCondition = (highestHigh - low ) >= (atr * atrMultiplier)
```
Combining Conditions : Combines various conditions to identify capitulation candles.
```pine
isHigherVolumeThanNext = volume > volume
isHigherVolumeThanPrevious = volume > volume
bodySize = math.abs(close - open )
candleRange = high - low
rangeBiggerThanPreviousBody = candleRange > bodySize
isCapitulationCandle = isHighVolume and isHigherVolumeThanPrevious and isHigherVolumeThanNext and isLowestLow and rangeCondition and rangeBiggerThanPreviousBody
```
Dynamic Dot Sizes : Determines dot sizes based on volume thresholds and plots them below the identified capitulation candles.
```pine
isSmall = volume > smaVolume * smallThreshold and volume <= smaVolume * normalThreshold
isNormal = volume > smaVolume * normalThreshold and volume <= smaVolume * largeThreshold
isLarge = volume > smaVolume * largeThreshold

Three Candle Rolling Pivot Range**Strategy Description: Three Previous Candle Rolling Pivot Range**
**Introduction:**
This trading strategy is based on the concept of the rolling pivot range calculated from the high, low, and close prices of the three previous candles. The rolling pivot range serves as a dynamic support and resistance level, and this strategy aims to capture potential trading opportunities based on the price relationship with this range.
**Strategy Components:**
**1. Rolling Pivot Range Calculation:**
- **Rolling Pivot:** Calculate the rolling pivot by averaging the high, low, and close prices of the three previous candles.
- **Second Number:** Find the midpoint between the high and low of the three previous candles.
- **Pivot Differential:** Measure the difference between the rolling pivot and the second number.
- **Rolling Pivot Range High:** Set as rolling pivot + pivot differential.
- **Rolling Pivot Range Low:** Set as rolling pivot - pivot differential.
**2. Entry Rules:**
- **Long Entry:**
- Initiate a long entry when the current close is above both the rolling pivot range high and the rolling pivot.
- Continue the long entry as long as both the rolling pivot range high and low are higher than the corresponding values of the previous candle.
- **Short Entry:**
- Start a short entry when the current close is below both the rolling pivot range high and the rolling pivot.
- Continue the short entry as long as both the rolling pivot range high and low are lower than the corresponding values of the previous candle.
**Visualization:**
- **Plotting:**
- The rolling pivot range high, rolling pivot, and rolling pivot range low are plotted on the chart for visual reference.
- Long entry points are marked with a green triangle below the corresponding candle.
- Short entry points are marked with a red triangle above the corresponding candle.
**Conclusion:**
This strategy leverages the rolling pivot range to identify potential reversal points in the market. By considering the relative position of the current price compared to the dynamic support and resistance levels, the strategy aims to capture favorable trading opportunities. However, like all trading strategies, it should be used cautiously and backtested thoroughly on historical data to ensure its effectiveness before implementation in a live trading environment. Additionally, risk management techniques should always be applied to safeguard trading capital.
