Balanced Big Wicks (50/50) HighlighterThis open-source indicator highlights candles with balanced long wicks (50/50 style)—that is, candles where both upper and lower shadows are each at least 30–60% of the full range and within ~8% of each other, while retaining a substantial body. This specific structure often reflects indecision or liquidity sweeps and can precede strong breakout moves.
How It Works (Inputs and Logic)
Min wick % (each side): 30–60% of candle range
Max body %: up to 60% of range (preserves strong body presence)
Equality tolerance: wicks within 8% of each other
ATR filter (multiples of ATR14): ensures only significant-range candles are flagged
When a “50/50” candle forms, it’s visually colored and labeled; audibly alertable.
How to Use It
Long setup: price closes above the wick-high → potential long entry (SL below wick-low, TP = 1:1).
Short setup: price closes below wick-low → potential short entry (SL above wick-high, TP = 1:1).
Especially effective on 5–15 minute scalping charts when aligned with high-volume sessions or HTF trend context.
Why This Indicator Is Unique
Unlike standard wick or doji voters, this script specifically filters for candles with a strong body and symmetrical wicks, paired with a range filter, reducing noise significantly.
Important Notes
No unrealistic claims: backtested setups indicate high occurrence of clean breakouts, though performance depends on market structure.
Script built responsibly: uses real-time calculations only, no future-data lookahead.
Visuals on the published chart reflect default input values exactly.

Advanced Candlestick Patterns [MAB]🔎 Overview
Advanced Candlestick Patterns is a framework that detects well-defined candlestick patterns with a consistent Validation / Devalidation process, optional swing-context filters , and a hidden-candle reconstruction mode for stricter pattern anatomy.
The goal is clarity and discipline: signals are described, thresholds are visible, and risk parameters are explicit.
⚙️ Key Features
📊 Pattern Engine (Extensible) — Modular detection methods so new patterns can be added without changing workflow.
✅ Validation / Devalidation — Clear rules for confirmation and invalidation; plotted with distinct lines for transparency.
📈 Swing Filter (Optional) — Require setups to align with local swing highs/lows via selectable lookbacks.
🧩 Hidden-Candle Mode — Reconstructs OHLC (prev close + current extremes) to reveal intra-bar structure; visuals may differ from native bars.
🎯Target Systems — Choose Points, Percentage, or Risk:Reward; info label shows EP/SL/TP-1.
Performance-Safe Controls — Label size, info toggle, and non-editable internal lines.
📈 How to Use
Add the script to your chart (after access is granted).
Choose pattern types for Bullish and Bearish detection from the inputs.
⁃ Enable Hidden Candles if you want stricter intra-bar anatomy.
⁃ Enable Detect near Swings and pick a swing length (Smaller/Medium/Bigger).
💬Decide whether to show Trade Info Labels (Entry, SL, Target 1).
🎯Set your Target Mode (Points / Percentage / Risk:Reward) and parameter.
✅ Use the plotted Validation (confirmation) and Devalidation (invalidation) levels to plan.
Tip: With Detect near Swings ON, a setup counts only if the prior bar’s high/low equals the rolling extreme. If too strict, adjust the lookback or disable.
💡Recommended charting
• Intraday structure: 5m–15m–30m
• Swing confirmation: 2h-4h–1D
• Test across multiple symbols; avoid cherry-picking.
🛡 Risk Management System
This tool displays mechanics— you control the risk. A common template:
Entry : Entry is typically considered only after validation.
Stop-Loss : Initial SL at the structure-defined level (displayed).
Target 1 : Choose Points / % / Risk:Reward (e.g., 1R).
After TP-1 : Consider partial profits and trail the remainder via ATR / short MA / swing boxes (user-defined).
No target or trail is guaranteed—market conditions change.

Perfect Candles By SalamunPerfect Candles Compass Trade Academy By Salamun
The "Perfect Candles By Salamun" indicator is a custom indicator for the TradingView trading platform that uses Pine Script v5. Let me explain its function and usage:
Main Function
1. Candlestick Display Modification
This indicator redraws candlesticks with special logic, especially to handle price gaps that occur when the market reopens after a close.
2. Eliminate Price Gaps
When the market opens after a break (for example after a weekend or holiday), there is usually a gap between the previous closing price and the new opening price.
This indicator "fixes" the gap by adjusting the open price of the new candle to be equal to the close price of the previous candle.
Input Parameters
"Valid only on open days" (default: false)
If enabled, modifications are only applied on market opening days.
If disabled, all candles will be modified
"Hourly threshold for detecting open days" (default: 6 hours)
Determine the time threshold for detecting gaps.
If the time interval between candles is > 6 hours, it is considered as the opening of a new day.
"Show Price" (default: true)
Displays a horizontal price line at the last price level
Ways of working
Gap Detection : Calculating the time difference between candles
Modification Conditions :
If applyToDayOpenOnly= false, OR
If the time gap > the specified threshold
Price Adjustment :
Open price = Close price of the previous candle
Close, High, Low still use original values
Coloring :
Teal green for bullish candles (close ≥ open)
Red for bearish candle (close < open)
Utility
For Traders:
Provides a smoother chart visualization without gaps
Helps with more continuous technical analysis
Useful for timeframes that often experience gaps (such as daily, weekly)
For Analysis:
Reduces noise from opening gap
Helps identify clearer trends
Suitable for strategies that focus on continuous price movements
BE-Volume Footprint & Pressure Candles█ Overview:
BE-Volume Footprint & Pressure Candles, is an indicator which is preliminarily designed to analyze the supply and demand patterns based on Rally Base Rally (RBR), Drop Base Drop (DBD), Drop Base Rally (DBR) & Rally Base Drop (RBD) concepts in conjunction to volume pressure. Understanding these concepts are crucial. Let's break down why the "Base" is you Best friend in this context.
Commonness in RBR, DBD, DBR, RBD patterns ?
There is an impulse price movement at first, be it rally (price moving up) or the Drop (price moving down), followed by a period of consolidation which is referred as "BASE" and later with another impulse move of price (Rally or Drop).
Why is the Base Important
1. Market Balance: Base represents a balance between buyers and sellers. This is where decisions are made.
2. Confirmation: It confirms the strength of previous impulse move which has happened.
Base & the Liquidity Play:
Supply & Demand Zone predict the presence of all large orders within the limits of the Base Zone. Price is expected to return to the zone to fill the unfilled orders placed by large players.
For the price to move in the intended direction Liquidity plays the major role. hence indicator aims to help traders in identifying those zones where liquidity exists and the volume pressure helps in confirming that liquidity is making its play.
Bottom pane in the below snapshots is a visual representation of Buyers volume pressure (Green Line & the Green filled area) making the price move upwards vs Sellers volume pressure (Red Line & the Red filled area) making the price move downwards.
Top pane in the below snapshots is a visual representation on the pattern identification (Blue marked zone & the Blue line referred as Liquidity level)
Bullish Pressure On Buy Liquidity:
Bearish Pressure On Sell Liquidity:
█ How It Works:
1. Indicator computes technical & mathematical operations such as ATR, delta of Highs & Lows of the candle and Candle ranges to identify the patterns and marks the liquidity lines accordingly.
2. Indicator then waits for price to return to the liquidity levels and checks if Directional volume pressure to flow-in while the prices hover near the Liquidity zones.
3. Once the Volume pressure is evident, loop in to the ride.
█ When It wont Work:
When there no sufficient Liquidity or sustained Opposite volume pressure, trades are expected to fail.
█ Limitations:
Works only on the scripts which has volume info. Relays on LTF candles to determine intra-bar volumes. Hence, Use on TF greater than 1 min and lesser than 15 min.
█ Indicator Features:
1. StrictEntries: employs' tighter rules (rather most significant setups) on the directional volume pressure applied for the price to move. If unchecked, liberal rules applied on the directional volume pressure leading to more setups being identified.
2. Setup Confirmation period: Indicates Waiting period to analyze the directional volume pressure. Early (lesser wait period) is Risky and Late (longer wait period) is too late for the
ride. Find the quant based on the accuracy of the setup provided in the bottom right table.
3. Algo Enabled with Place Holders:
Indicator is equipped with algo alerts, supported with necessary placeholders to trade any instrument like stock, options etc.

Balanced Big Wicks (50/50) HighlighterDetects candles with unusually long, balanced upper and lower wicks—a potential sign of market indecision followed by strong breakout action.
What It Does
Identifies candles where both upper and lower wicks each account for at least a configurable percentage (e.g., 30–40%) of the total range, and where the body remains small—creating the classic “balanced wick” (50/50) appearance.
Marks these candles visually with color (bullish/bearish), optional background shading, and a tiny “50/50” label above the candle.
Why It’s Useful
Balanced wicks often precede decisive moves once price breaks either wick. This script highlights such opportunities systematically.
Helpful for traders looking for clean entry signals: long on close above the upper wick, short on close below the lower wick—with straightforward risk management (SL at opposite wick, TP 1:1).
Key Inputs (default values shown in parentheses)
Min wick % (each side): 30%
Max body %: 20%
Equality tolerance: 10%
Min range filter (ATR multiples): 0 (disable)
ATR length: 14
Color candles: On
Background highlight: Off by default
Plot label on candle: On
Adjust these to fit your preferred timeframe or instrument (e.g., raise wick thresholds or ATR filter for noisy 15‑minute altcoin charts; relax slightly for smoother 1‑hour BTC analysis).
Alerts
Three alert options included:
“50/50 Wick (Any)” — triggers on any balanced-wick candle.
“50/50 Wick (Bullish)” — only when the candle closes bullish (upper close).
“50/50 Wick (Bearish)” — only when the candle closes bearish (lower close).
How to Use It
Add the indicator to your chart.
Adjust input settings to suit the timeframe or trading style.
Watch for highlighted candles.
Optional alert: create alerts using one of the provided alert conditions (e.g., “50/50 Wick (Any)”) with “Once per bar close” to get notified when signal bars appear.
Use your own trade logic (e.g., breakout entries as described above).
Disclaimer & Originality
Original Concept: I built this script from scratch to highlight a specific candle structure often used by traders in breakout setups—long balanced wicks with small bodies.
No external code references; it’s entirely open-source and self-explanatory.
Note: This indicator highlights potential setups—not financial advice. Always backtest any strategy, and use sound risk management. Past patterns do not guarantee future success.
Optimized Settings for 5m–15m Scalping
Min wick % (each side): 0.30
→ Forces both wicks to be almost half the candle each. Very strict.
Max body % of range: 0.40
→ Candle body must be ≤10% of full range = almost a doji.
Equality tolerance: 0.1
→ Wicks must be within 5% of each other relative to full candle size.
Min range filter (ATR multiples): 0
→ Candle must be at least 1.2× bigger than recent average (ATR14). Filters out weak fake dojis.
ATR Length: 14 (standard, stable)
Color candles / Plot labels: On (so you clearly see them)
Background highlight: Optional
Inside Candle DivergenceStudy Material: Inside Candle Divergence Indicator (aiTrendview)
1. Introduction
The Inside Candle Divergence Indicator is a custom tool built on TradingView using Pine Script. It is designed to help traders identify potential reversal points or trend continuations using a mix of candlestick analysis, RSI (Relative Strength Index), VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price), Pivot Points, and Volume analytics. The tool also provides a dashboard table on the chart, summarizing all key values in a single glance for traders and analysts.
This indicator is not just a signal generator but also an educational framework—explaining how different concepts in technical analysis combine to build a systematic approach for market entries and exits.
________________________________________
2. Core Concepts Behind the Tool
A. Inside Candle Pattern
An Inside Candle forms when the current candle’s high is lower than or equal to the previous candle’s high, and the low is higher than or equal to the previous candle’s low.
• This means the entire price action of the current candle is "inside" the range of the previous candle.
• A bullish inside candle occurs when the close is higher than the open.
• A bearish inside candle occurs when the close is lower than the open.
This pattern shows market indecision but also sets up potential breakouts or trend reversals.
________________________________________
B. RSI (Relative Strength Index)
The indicator calculates RSI using the formula from the ta.rsi() function in TradingView. RSI helps measure momentum in the market.
• A low RSI (below 25) signals an oversold zone → possible buy.
• A high RSI (above 75) signals an overbought zone → possible sell.
By combining RSI with the Inside Candle, the indicator ensures that signals are triggered only when momentum and price patterns confirm each other.
________________________________________
C. Buy & Sell Signals
• Buy Signal: Triggered when RSI < Buy Level (default 25) and a bullish inside candle forms.
• Sell Signal: Triggered when RSI > Sell Level (default 75) and a bearish inside candle forms.
When triggered, the chart displays a BUY (green label below candle) or SELL (red label above candle) marker. The indicator also saves the entry price and signal bar for future reference inside the dashboard.
________________________________________
D. VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price)
VWAP is calculated using the typical price (H+L+C)/3 and weighting it by volume.
• VWAP shows the average trading price weighted by volume, widely used by institutions.
• The tool calculates the distance of price from VWAP in % terms.
• If price is far above VWAP, the market may be overheated (overbought). If far below, it may be undervalued (oversold).
________________________________________
E. Volume Analysis
The tool splits volume into Buy Volume and Sell Volume:
• Buy Volume: If close > open.
• Sell Volume: If close ≤ open.
• Cumulative totals are maintained, and percentages are calculated to show what proportion of total market volume is bullish vs bearish.
• A progress bar style visual (using blocks █) shows the dominance of buyers or sellers.
This allows traders to quickly measure whether buyers or sellers are controlling the market trend.
________________________________________
F. Daily Pivot Points
Pivot Points are calculated using the previous day’s high, low, and close:
• Pivot = (High + Low + Close) / 3
• R1, S1, R2, S2, R3, S3 levels are derived from this pivot.
• These levels act as support and resistance zones.
The script plots Pivot, R1, and S1 lines on the chart for easy reference.
________________________________________
G. Trend Direction
The indicator checks where the price is compared to R1 and S1:
• If price > R1 → Bullish Trend
• If price < S1 → Bearish Trend
• Otherwise → Neutral Trend
The trend direction is displayed in the dashboard with arrows (↑, ↓, →).
________________________________________
H. Price Change Calculation
The tool calculates:
• Price Change = Current Close – Previous Close
• Percentage Change = (Change / Previous Close) × 100
• Displays ▲ (green upward) or ▼ (red downward) with the exact percentage.
This gives traders a quick snapshot of intraday price movement.
________________________________________
I. Dashboard Table
One of the most powerful features is the real-time dashboard table shown on the chart. It contains:
1. Symbol & Price Info (Current ticker, price, change %)
2. RSI Reading (with color coding: green for oversold, red for overbought)
3. VWAP and Distance from VWAP
4. Volume Analysis with Progress Bar (Buy vs Sell %)
5. Pivot Levels (Pivot, R1, S1)
6. Trend Direction (Bullish, Bearish, Neutral)
7. Signal Status (Last Buy/Sell signal with entry price)
This reduces the need for multiple indicators and gives traders a command-center view directly on the chart.
________________________________________
J. Alerts
The tool generates alerts whenever a Buy or Sell condition is met. Traders can set up TradingView alerts to be notified instantly when:
• Buy Signal Alert → RSI oversold + Bullish inside candle
• Sell Signal Alert → RSI overbought + Bearish inside candle
This ensures no opportunity is missed even if you’re not actively monitoring the chart.
________________________________________
K. Background Highlights
The chart background also changes faintly (light green or light red) when a Buy or Sell condition is triggered. This gives traders visual confirmation along with signals and alerts.
________________________________________
3. Practical Use of This Tool
• Scalpers & Intraday Traders can use it for quick momentum-based entries.
• Swing Traders can use the RSI + Inside Candle + Pivot Points to find medium-term reversals.
• Analysts can use the dashboard for real-time summaries in reports.
• Volume Analysis helps understand institutional activity.
Remember: This is not a standalone holy grail. It must be used with proper risk management and confirmation from higher timeframes.

High Timeframe Candle Overlay (Configurable)HTF Candle Overlay — Read Higher Timeframe on Lower Timeframe Charts
What it does
This indicator draws each selected Higher-Timeframe (HTF) candle directly on your lower-timeframe (LTF) chart. It shows a translucent range box (HTF high–low) and an inner body box (HTF open–close), so you can track how the bigger candle is forming while you analyze lower-timeframe structure, liquidity sweeps, and intrabar reactions.
Why it’s helpful
• See where the current HTF candle opened, where price sits inside its body, and how far wicks extend—without leaving your LTF chart.
• Combine HTF context (e.g., 1H/4H) with LTF execution (e.g., 1m–15m) to spot confluence, S/R flips, and failed breaks faster.
• The overlay is locked to the price scale and anchored by bar index, so it pans/zooms exactly with your chart (no drifting while dragging).
⸻
How it works (under the hood)
• Fetches HTF OHLC via request.security.
• When a new HTF bar starts, the previous HTF boxes are frozen at the true close.
• The current HTF bar updates intrabar (so you see live formation) and is clamped to the correct span.
• Horizontal anchoring uses bar index, and a hidden price plot binds the script to the main price scale for stable zoom/pan behavior.
⸻
Inputs
• High Timeframe (HTF): Default 1H (set any TF you like).
• Show High–Low Box: On/off.
• Show Body Box (Open–Close): On/off.
• Opacity for range/body boxes.
• Bull/Bear Colors and Outline + Width.
• Max HTF Candles to Keep: Auto-deletes older boxes to maintain performance.
⸻
Usage tips
• Popular combos: view 1H or 4H candles while trading 1–15m charts.
• Turn off the range box if you only want a clean HTF body overlay.
• Pair with your session/structure tools; this indicator is visual context only (no signals or alerts).
⸻
Notes & limitations
• Non-repainting for closed HTF bars: once an HTF candle closes, its boxes are fixed. The current/in-progress HTF bar updates until it closes (expected live behavior).
• Data alignment depends on your symbol’s feed and session settings. Heikin Ashi/renko/etc. may not match classic OHLC.
• Heavy history + many boxes can affect performance; reduce “Max HTF Candles to Keep” if needed.

[RealEdgeFX] - Manipulation CandleOverview
The Manipulation Candle indicator highlights potential liquidity grabs and false breakouts directly on the chart. It focuses on moments when price sweeps prior highs or lows but closes in the opposite direction, suggesting a possible manipulation before a market reversal.
Core Logic
The indicator compares the current candle against the previous one and colors the bar when specific conditions are met:
Sell Manipulation (dark red)
When the current candle breaks above the previous high but then closes below the prior low.
→ This often signals a stop hunt to the upside followed by bearish intent.
Buy Manipulation (light green)
When the current candle breaks below the previous low but then closes above the prior high.
→ This suggests a liquidity sweep to the downside before bullish continuation.
Neutral candles remain uncolored to avoid clutter and keep the focus on high-impact moments.
Design Approach
Clarity: Only the candles that meet strict criteria are marked, reducing noise.
Liquidity Focused : Built for traders who want to quickly spot manipulative price action.
Non-Repainting : Once a candle is identified as manipulation, the color stays fixed.
Usage
Add it as an overlay on your chart.
Watch for green or red manipulation candles as alerts of possible reversals or liquidity events.
Combine with your own market structure or bias tools to increase accuracy.

Cvd Divergence Signals with filter.
CVD Divergence + Candles - False Signal Filter
Hey traders,
I want to share my custom indicator with you. Through testing, I've found that CVD (Composite Volume Delta) captures divergences much more accurately than traditional tools like RSI. But this isn't just another divergence indicator - I've added strict candlestick pattern confirmation to filter out false signals. I'll keep improving this tool over time, and I welcome all your suggestions in the comments.
How it works step-by-step:
1. First, it detects CVD divergences (the delta between buy/sell volumes)
2. Then confirms each signal with reversal candlestick patterns:
- Hammer/Hanging Man
- Engulfing
- Pin Bar
- Inside Bar
Why mine beats standard CVD indicators:
• No raw divergences - only shows signals confirmed by BOTH volume AND price action
• Eliminates 80% of junk signals from basic versions
• Adaptable to any asset and timeframe
Simple usage guide:
Green arrows = Buy when:
- CVD shows bullish divergence
- AND a hammer/pin bar appears
Red arrows = Sell when:
- CVD shows bearish divergence
- Confirmed by hanging man/engulfing pattern
Pro tip:
For best results, combine with:
• Volume profile analysis
• Smart Money concepts (order blocks, FVGs )
Important notes:
This isn't a holy grail - I personally use it with support/resistance levels. Works best on 5M charts for scalping.

Inside Bar Coloring (Real-time + Historical) w/ AlertsDescription
This Pine Script v6 indicator identifies and colors inside bars, whose entire range (high and low) stays within the previous bar's range. It gives the option to color the real-time bar as well as historical inside bars.
Inside bars are colored differently based on whether they close above or below their opening price (bullish vs bearish). The indicator offers flexible display options including real-time-only highlighting, historical inside bar visualization with transparency, and optional triangle markers for enhanced visibility.
Utility
Inside bars represent periods of market consolidation and reduced volatility, and are by nature consolidating. During this equilibrium, it can be valuable to observe price development rather than engage with it. Conversely, a break of the equilibrium often marks a shift in volatility and provides opportunity. This indicator provides instant visual identification of this price action on your chart.

Mutanabby_AI | Algo Pro Strategy# Mutanabby_AI | Algo Pro Strategy: Advanced Candlestick Pattern Trading System
## Strategy Overview
The Mutanabby_AI Algo Pro Strategy represents a systematic approach to automated trading based on advanced candlestick pattern recognition and multi-layered technical filtering. This strategy transforms traditional engulfing pattern analysis into a comprehensive trading system with sophisticated risk management and flexible position sizing capabilities.
The strategy operates on a long-only basis, entering positions when bullish engulfing patterns meet specific technical criteria and exiting when bearish engulfing patterns indicate potential trend reversals. The system incorporates multiple confirmation layers to enhance signal reliability while providing comprehensive customization options for different trading approaches and risk management preferences.
## Core Algorithm Architecture
The strategy foundation relies on bullish and bearish engulfing candlestick pattern recognition enhanced through technical analysis filtering mechanisms. Entry signals require simultaneous satisfaction of four distinct criteria: confirmed bullish engulfing pattern formation, candle stability analysis indicating decisive price action, RSI momentum confirmation below specified thresholds, and price decline verification over adjustable lookback periods.
The candle stability index measures the ratio between candlestick body size and total range including wicks, ensuring only well-formed patterns with clear directional conviction generate trading signals. This filtering mechanism eliminates indecisive market conditions where pattern reliability diminishes significantly.
RSI integration provides momentum confirmation by requiring oversold conditions before entry signal generation, ensuring alignment between pattern formation and underlying momentum characteristics. The RSI threshold remains fully adjustable to accommodate different market conditions and volatility environments.
Price decline verification examines whether current prices have decreased over a specified period, confirming that bullish engulfing patterns occur after meaningful downward movement rather than during sideways consolidation phases. This requirement enhances the probability of successful reversal pattern completion.
## Advanced Position Management System
The strategy incorporates dual position sizing methodologies to accommodate different account sizes and risk management approaches. Percentage-based position sizing calculates trade quantities as equity percentages, enabling consistent risk exposure across varying account balances and market conditions. This approach proves particularly valuable for systematic trading approaches and portfolio management applications.
Fixed quantity sizing provides precise control over trade sizes independent of account equity fluctuations, offering predictable position management for specific trading strategies or when implementing precise risk allocation models. The system enables seamless switching between sizing methods through simple configuration adjustments.
Position quantity calculations integrate seamlessly with TradingView's strategy testing framework, ensuring accurate backtesting results and realistic performance evaluation across different market conditions and time periods. The implementation maintains consistency between historical testing and live trading applications.
## Comprehensive Risk Management Framework
The strategy features dual stop loss methodologies addressing different risk management philosophies and market analysis approaches. Entry price-based stop losses calculate stop levels as fixed percentages below entry prices, providing predictable risk exposure and consistent risk-reward ratio maintenance across all trades.
The percentage-based stop loss system enables precise risk control by limiting maximum loss per trade to predetermined levels regardless of market volatility or entry timing. This approach proves essential for systematic trading strategies requiring consistent risk parameters and capital preservation during adverse market conditions.
Lowest low-based stop losses identify recent price support levels by analyzing minimum prices over adjustable lookback periods, placing stops below these technical levels with additional buffer percentages. This methodology aligns stop placement with market structure rather than arbitrary percentage calculations, potentially improving stop loss effectiveness during normal market fluctuations.
The lookback period adjustment enables optimization for different timeframes and market characteristics, with shorter periods providing tighter stops for active trading and longer periods offering broader stops suitable for position trading approaches. Buffer percentage additions ensure stops remain below obvious support levels where other market participants might place similar orders.
## Visual Customization and Interface Design
The strategy provides comprehensive visual customization through eight predefined color schemes designed for different chart backgrounds and personal preferences. Color scheme options include Classic bright green and red combinations, Ocean themes featuring blue and orange contrasts, Sunset combinations using gold and crimson, and Neon schemes providing high visibility through bright color selections.
Professional color schemes such as Forest, Royal, and Fire themes offer sophisticated alternatives suitable for business presentations and professional trading environments. The Custom color scheme enables precise color selection through individual color picker controls, maintaining maximum flexibility for specific visual requirements.
Label styling options accommodate different chart analysis preferences through text bubble, triangle, and arrow display formats. Size adjustments range from tiny through huge settings, ensuring appropriate visual scaling across different screen resolutions and chart configurations. Text color customization maintains readability across various chart themes and background selections.
## Signal Quality Enhancement Features
The strategy incorporates signal filtering mechanisms designed to eliminate repetitive signal generation during choppy market conditions. The disable repeating signals option prevents consecutive identical signals until opposing conditions occur, reducing overtrading during consolidation phases and improving overall signal quality.
Signal confirmation requirements ensure all technical criteria align before trade execution, reducing false signal occurrence while maintaining reasonable trading frequency for active strategies. The multi-layered approach balances signal quality against opportunity frequency through adjustable parameter optimization.
Entry and exit visualization provides clear trade identification through customizable labels positioned at relevant price levels. Stop loss visualization displays active risk levels through colored line plots, ensuring complete transparency regarding current risk management parameters during live trading operations.
## Implementation Guidelines and Optimization
The strategy performs effectively across multiple timeframes with optimal results typically occurring on intermediate timeframes ranging from fifteen minutes through four hours. Higher timeframes provide more reliable pattern formation and reduced false signal occurrence, while lower timeframes increase trading frequency at the expense of some signal reliability.
Parameter optimization should focus on RSI threshold adjustments based on market volatility characteristics and candlestick pattern timeframe analysis. Higher RSI thresholds generate fewer but potentially higher quality signals, while lower thresholds increase signal frequency with corresponding reliability considerations.
Stop loss method selection depends on trading style preferences and market analysis philosophy. Entry price-based stops suit systematic approaches requiring consistent risk parameters, while lowest low-based stops align with technical analysis methodologies emphasizing market structure recognition.
## Performance Considerations and Risk Disclosure
The strategy operates exclusively on long positions, making it unsuitable for bear market conditions or extended downtrend periods. Users should consider market environment analysis and broader trend assessment before implementing the strategy during adverse market conditions.
Candlestick pattern reliability varies significantly across different market conditions, with higher reliability typically occurring during trending markets compared to ranging or volatile conditions. Strategy performance may deteriorate during periods of reduced pattern effectiveness or increased market noise.
Risk management through stop loss implementation remains essential for capital preservation during adverse market movements. The strategy does not guarantee profitable outcomes and requires proper position sizing and risk management to prevent significant capital loss during unfavorable trading periods.
## Technical Specifications
The strategy utilizes standard TradingView Pine Script functions ensuring compatibility across all supported instruments and timeframes. Default configuration employs 14-period RSI calculations, adjustable candle stability thresholds, and customizable price decline verification periods optimized for general market conditions.
Initial capital settings default to $10,000 with percentage-based equity allocation, though users can adjust these parameters based on account size and risk tolerance requirements. The strategy maintains detailed trade logs and performance metrics through TradingView's integrated backtesting framework.
Alert integration enables real-time notification of entry and exit signals, stop loss executions, and other significant trading events. The comprehensive alert system supports automated trading applications and manual trade management approaches through detailed signal information provision.
## Conclusion
The Mutanabby_AI Algo Pro Strategy provides a systematic framework for candlestick pattern trading with comprehensive risk management and position sizing flexibility. The strategy's strength lies in its multi-layered confirmation approach and sophisticated customization options, enabling adaptation to various trading styles and market conditions.
Successful implementation requires understanding of candlestick pattern analysis principles and appropriate parameter optimization for specific market characteristics. The strategy serves traders seeking automated execution of proven technical analysis techniques while maintaining comprehensive control over risk management and position sizing methodologies.
Mayfair Fx Scalper✅ Mayfair FX Scalper — By EastWave Capital
The Mayfair FX Scalper is a precision-focused, closed-source indicator designed for short-term intraday trading, particularly scalping on lower timeframes such as 1-minute, 3-minute, and 5-minute charts. This tool is developed by EastWave Capital and is based on a combination of Relative Strength Index (RSI) extremes and specific candlestick structure patterns to detect potential exhaustion and reversal points in the market.
🔍 How It Works:
The algorithm operates by evaluating three core elements:
RSI Extremes:
RSI is calculated using default settings.
Buy signals are considered only when the RSI on the previous candle is below 22 (oversold), and the current candle is bullish, while the previous one was bearish.
Sell signals are considered when the RSI on the previous candle is above 78 (overbought), and the current candle is bearish, while the previous one was bullish.
Candle Confirmation Logic:
The system waits for candle confirmation (e.g., shift in bullish/bearish structure) rather than triggering signals based on RSI alone.
This avoids false triggers in strong trends and filters weak entries.
SL/TP Estimation (Visual):
While not automatically placing orders, the indicator can optionally display lines or small labels showing a Stop Loss at the previous swing high/low (±0.5) and TP levels at 1R, 2R, and 3R based on that stop.
These visual aids help traders plan risk/reward and exits manually.
📈 How to Use:
Timeframes: Best suited for 1M, 3M, and 5M charts
Markets: Works well on Gold (XAU/USD), Forex majors, Indices, and Crypto
Session: Performs best during high volatility sessions (London & NY)
Use Case:
Wait for a signal label to appear after a clear momentum move.
Confirm price action and trend context.
Use provided visual SL/TP labels or apply your manual RR planning.
Combine with structure breaks, FVG zones, or liquidity sweeps for confluence.
⚠️ Important Notes:
This indicator does not repaint.
No automatic trades are executed. Signals are visual.
Not intended for use in isolation; best when combined with proper trade management and confirmation tools.
Past performance does not guarantee future results. Always manage risk appropriately

Internal Pivot Pattern [LuxAlgo]The Internal Pivot Pattern indicator is a novel method allowing traders to detect pivots without excessive delay on the chart timeframe, by using the lower timeframe data from a candle.
It features custom colors for candles and zigzag lines to help identify trends. A dashboard showing the accuracy of the pattern is also included.
🔶 USAGE
We define a pivot as the occurrence where the middle candle over a specific interval (for example, the most recent 21 bars) is the highest (pivot high) or the lowest (pivot low). This method commonly allows for identifying swing highs/lows on a trader's chart; however, this pattern can only be identified after a specific number of bars has been formed, rendering this pattern useless for real-time detection of swing highs/lows.
This indicator uses a different approach, removing the need to wait for candles to form on the user chart; instead, we check the lower timeframe data of the current candle and evaluate for the presence of a pivot given the internal data, effectively providing pivot confirmation at the candle close.
An internal pivot low pattern is indicative of a potential uptrend, while an internal pivot high is indicative of a potential downtrend.
Candles are colored based on the last internal pivot detected, with blue candle colors indicating that the most recent internal pivot is a pivot low, indicating an uptrend, while an orange candle color indicates that the most recent internal pivot is a pivot high, indicating a downtrend.
🔹 Timeframes
The timeframe setting allows controlling the amount of lower timeframe data to consider for the internal pivot detection. This setting must be lower than the user's chart timeframe.
Using a timeframe significantly lower than the user chart timeframe will evaluate a larger amount of data for the pivot detection, making it less frequent, while using a timeframe closer to the chart timeframe can make the internal pivot detection more frequent, and more prone to false positives.
🔹 Accuracy Dashboard
The Accuracy Dashboard allows evaluating how accurate the detected patterns are as a percentage, with a pattern being judged accurate if subsequent patterns are detected higher or lower than a previous one.
For example, an internal pivot low is judged accurate if the following internal pivot is higher than it, indicating that higher highs have been made.
This dashboard can be useful to determine the timeframe setting to maximize the respective internal pivot accuracy.
🔶 SETTINGS
Timeframe: Timeframe for detecting internal swings
Accuracy Dashboard: Enable or disable the Accuracy Dashboard.
🔹 Style
Internal Pivot High: Color of the dot displayed upon the detection of an internal pivot high
Internal Pivot Low: Color of the dot displayed upon the detection of an internal pivot low
Zig-Zag: Color of the zig-zag segments connecting each internal pivot
Candles: Enable candle coloring, with control over the color of the candles highlighting the detected trend
Engulfing DashboardThis is an indicator that detects candles based on the **Engulfing system** I’ve studied — from **wick to wick**.
It determines whether it’s a Buy or Sell based on the **opening price** and how the candle moves.
Anyone familiar with the Engulfing system will know how to use it.
It’s especially useful for people who use only **one screen** and can’t constantly monitor multiple timeframes.
And don’t forget:
**Trend is your friend.**
Candle Size: Avg vs Current (Green/Red)This indicator shows the size of green (bullish) and red (bearish) candles, either as an average over time or just the current candle. You can choose to measure candle size by the body (Close - Open) or the full range (High - Low). It's a simple way to compare recent buying vs. selling strength and spot shifts in momentum.
*All Candlestick Patterns*This Indicator identifies key candlestick patterns like Doji, Engulfing, and Hammer, and marks potential reversal zones. Ideal for traders focusing on price action and short-term entry points. It works well on 5min to 1hr timeframes for crypto and forex.
