Crypto Candlestick Patterns - CN Version
Introduction:
The candlestick chart has been used for centuries since the Japanese applications. Based on the candlestick charting, people developed candle pattern analysis. Now we have tons of books or articles illustrating the usage of reversal patterns and continuation patterns, and computers provide a faster and preciser way to recognize these pattern.
Originally we have a common *All Candlestick Patterns* indicator to use. This indicator works well for most of the markets or commodities including stocks and futures. However, for cryptocurrency market, quite a few patterns are not suitable anymore. For example, crypto markets are continuously running 7x24hrs and the big coins with good volume tend to have almost continuous price in commonly used time periods. Hence, original patterns with "window" or "jump" concepts are usually not applied to crypto.
For these issues, I modified the original *All Candlestick Patterns* indicator and introduced the Chinese version for people speaking such language.
Like most of the other indicators, I personally do not recommend anyone to simply follow the patterns it shows to enter the market. You may take these recognized patterns as a reference, and further actions on trading should be done with several other tools, such as MACD, RSI, Stochastic and etc.
Usage:
The application of this indicator is basically the same as the original *All Candlestick Patterns* and you will get an automatically generated pattern recognition by your computer system.
There are a few parameters to adjust for the indicator:
Trending Detection Settings: Here you can choose SMA-Fast, SMA-Fast/Slow or None detecting options to recognize the current market trend. This is a minor improvement from the original indicator and you can choose your preferred trending detecting settings by changing the length of SMA.
Candlestick Settings: You may adjust the rules to recognize the properties of candlesticks. I add a "perturbation" parameter here, which actually is an error tolerance for pattern recognition. Some seemingly pattern may not fulfill the strict rules of classic candlestick patterns, but we may recognize them by watch the charting on our own. Hence this error tolerance may show more potential patterns from the charting.
Plot Settings: It is the usually colour choice and providing options for bullish/bearish.
Pattern Settings: Here you can select the patterns that you would like to see from the charting. You can pick the preferred reversal patterns or choose to show all the patterns. It's all up to you!
Features:
Language Translation: Since this is a Chinese language version. I have replaced all the English explanation of patterns to Chinese ones. Move your mouse to the label, you will find a brief intro of the pattern and a notice about bullish or bearish signals it indicates.
Alerts: As the same as the original one, we will have the alert options from this indicator. All the alerts and their messages are Chinese. You can activate alerts based on this indicator from the alert management section, as the same as many other indicators you have used before.
Future Improvements:
For now I am satisfied with the work I have done, and I may apply it to several charts. It's welcome for any users to take a look at the codes and put modifications or improvements towards it. Currently most of the comments in the code are in Chinese language, since basically it's for Chinese speaking users, while the code itself and the parameter names should be pretty easy to understand in English. (I have been using English for writing in the past 8 years, hence this introduction is in English as well.)
