200 MAPD - Relative Price with candlesticks and divergenceThis is a MAPD (moving average percent difference) indicator that plots the results in candlestick format and with an option to show divergencies of a specific look back period. It's built with 200 moving average, which cannot be adjusted. A divergence is when the actual asset price moves in the opposite direction than the MAPD.
MAPD measures the percent difference of the asset price from the moving average, in this case, 200 moving average.
MAPD is my favorite indicator because it's an leading indicator, capable of predicting upcoming directions pretty accurately if you learn how to use it and how it works on your specific asset. With candlesticks instead of line you can also apply your own price action techniques.
I created this to be somewhat of a substitute for the actual price of the asset, meaning that price action analysis should be applied on this indicator and asset price is used as a secondary to spot divergencies.
The chart showing on this description is my own discretionary plotting of technical aspects. Divergencies will be enabled per default, but my preference is to have them off and plot my own analysis. And turn them on to get an overview from time to time. You can also change the look back period for the divergencies as you like.
I would say it works best from 1 hour to 1 day, maybe 1 week if you're bottom fishing in a big bear trend.
If you try it out and like it i would love to hear how you find it useful in the comments, will be helpful for me and others :)

Candlestick Trailing AllocationA simple indicator that calculates the sum of 'Up'(green), 'Down'(red), and 'Doji'(near Doji) candlesticks and portrays the same in an allocation format in percentage. And since it is allocation-based, the total will never exceed 100% of the defined Length period.
The equation is Green + Red + Doji = Total Candles; where total candles = length
When calculating the allocation part, the doji candles are subtracted from the sum of green and red, and the new value is divided by the length period.
For example, the green line = (sum of all green candles - doji / 2) / length; the reason to divide doji by 2 is to eliminate the redundancy it can cause.
When the green line crosses above the red line, the number of green candles is more than red in the defined length period. Similarly, when the red line crossed above the green, there were more red candles than green in that period.
The Doji line shows if any doji or near doji candles have appeared. It acts as a form of resistance against the green and red candles.
There's also the option to change the value of the doji's weight. Default is at 0.1.
The indicator does not show trend nor momentum, even though it may replicate some of its behavior from time to time. It is purely showing the allocation of the number of candles classified as green, red, and doji within the length provided.
Strategy: Candlestick Wick Analysis with Volume Conditions
This strategy focuses on analyzing the wicks (or shadows) of candlesticks to identify potential trading opportunities based on candlestick structure and volume. Based on these criteria, it places stop orders at the extremities of the wicks when certain conditions are met, thus increasing the chances of capturing significant price movements.
Trading Criteria
Volume Conditions:
The strategy checks if the volume of the current candle is higher than that of the previous three candles. This ensures that the observed price movement is supported by significant volume, increasing the probability that the price will continue in the same direction.
Wick Analysis:
Upper Wick:
If the upper wick of a candle represents more than 90% of its body size and is longer than the lower wick, this indicates that the price tested a resistance level before pulling back.
Order Placement: In this case, a Buy Stop order is placed at the upper extremity of the wick. This means that if the price rises back to this level, the order will be triggered, and the trader will take a buy position.
SL Management: A stop-loss is then placed below the lowest point of the same candle. This protects the trader by limiting losses if the price falls back after the order is triggered.
Lower Wick:
If the lower wick of a candle is longer than the upper wick and represents more than 90% of its body size, this indicates that the price tested a support level before rising.
Order Placement: In this case, a Sell Stop order is placed at the lower extremity of the wick. Thus, if the price drops back to this level, the order will be triggered, and the trader will take a sell position.
SL Management: A stop-loss is then placed above the highest point of the same candle. This ensures risk management by limiting losses if the price rebounds upward after the order is triggered.
Strategy Advantages
Responsiveness to Price Movements: The strategy is designed to detect significant price movements based on the market's reaction around support and resistance levels. By placing stop orders directly at the wick extremities, it allows capturing strong movements in the direction indicated by the candles.
Securing Positions: Using stop-losses positioned just above or below key levels (wicks) provides better risk management. If the market doesn't move as expected, the position is automatically closed with a limited loss.
Clear Visual Indicators: Symbols are displayed on the chart at the points where orders have been placed, making it easier to understand trading decisions. This helps to quickly identify the support or resistance levels tested by the price, as well as potential entry points.
Conclusion
The strategy is based on the idea that large wicks signal areas where buyers or sellers have tested significant price levels before temporarily retreating. By placing stop orders at the extremities of these wicks, the strategy allows capturing price movements when they confirm, while limiting risks through strategically placed stop-losses. It thus offers a balanced approach between capturing potential profit and managing risk.
This description emphasizes the idea of capturing significant market movements with stop orders while providing a clear explanation of the logic and risk management. It’s tailored for publication on TradingView and highlights the robustness of the strategy.
Candlestick Structure [LuxAlgo]The Candlestick Structure indicator detects major market trends and displays various candlestick patterns aligning with the detected trend, filtering out potentially unwanted patterns as a result. Multiple trend detection methods are included and can be selected by the users.
A dashboard showing the alignment percentage of each individual pattern is also provided.
🔶 USAGE
By distinguishing major and minor trend detection, we can still detect patterns based on minor trends, yet filter out the patterns that do not align with the major trend.
By detecting candlestick patterns that align with a major trend, we can effectively detect the ending points of retracements, potentially providing various entry points of interest within a trend.
Users are able to track the alignment of each candlestick pattern in the dashboard to reveal which patterns typically align with the trend and which may not.
Note: Alignment % only checks if the pattern's direction is the same as the current trend direction. These are only raw readings and not any type of confidence score.
🔶 DETAILS
In this indicator, we are identifying and tracking 16 different Candlestick Patterns.
🔹 Bullish Patterns
Hammer: Identified by a small upper wick (or no upper wick) with a small body, and an elongated lower wick whose length is 2X greater than the candle body’s width.
Inverted Hammer: Identified by a small lower wick (or no lower wick) with a small body, and an elongated upper wick whose length is 2X greater than the candle body’s width.
Bullish Engulfing: A 2 bar pattern identified by a large bullish candle body fully encapsulating (opening lower and closing higher) the previous small (bearish) candle body.
Rising 3: A 5 bar pattern identified by an initial full-bodied bullish candle, followed by 3 bearish candles that trade within the high and low of the initial candle, followed by another full-bodied bullish candle closing above the high of the initial candle.

Bullflag Candlestick pattern
A bull flag is essentially a small consolidation near the top of an upthrust. If we picture it as a candlestick pattern, it should have a big green candlestick + a small body red/green candle near the top of the top big green candle.
This script essentially help you identify these.
Candlestick Patterns by Dipak V2I am really excited to publish my work, I know its at the beginning but there is a lot to come in the future. I am writing a script to identify the candlestick patterns. In this version, I have added Hammer and Hanging Man Pattern in the first version, I know its less but its a beginning, I will keep adding the new information in my script in upcoming versions.
This script is for only learning purpose and not for treading realtime. In this script, it only identifies the pattern and does not check for its confirmation or does not provide any stop-loss, Also it does not check the prior trend before the pattern. These things really matter in the live trade. But in future, I am planning to add these things.
If you like my work, please like or comment your ideas I will try to include those in upcoming versions.
Hanging Man:
Hanging man is a bearish reversal candlestick pattern that signals about the uptrend or advancing phase are over and bulls have lost their control. Color of the candle is not important.
Identity:
1) Comes after a significant up rally or uptrend or advancing phase.
2) Small real body at the top.
3) Long lower shadow at least twice the real body.
4) Very small or no upper shadow.
Confirmation:
Immediate next candle’s close should be below the hanging man’s real body.
StopLoss:
There is a potential resistance level above the top of the hanging man. Stoploss should be above the resistance area or at the high of the hanging man.
Hammer:
Hammer is a bullish reversal candlestick pattern that signals about the downtrend or declining phase are over and bears have lost their control. Color of the candle is not important.
Identity:
1) Comes after significant down rally or downtrend or declining phase.
2) Small real body at the top.
3) Long lower shadow at least twice the real body.
4) Very small or no upper shadow.
Confirmation:
Immediate next candle’s close should be above the hammer’s low.
StopLoss:
There is a potential support level below the low of the hammer. Stoploss should be below the support area or at the low of the hammer.
Note: The candle is the same for Hanging Man and Hammer , Difference is where they appear in the uptrend or in the downtrend that makes the real difference.
BH - Candlestick Pattern DetectionThis is a script to help the beginners locate the candle patterns. It has a nice code that can be used in other scripts too. Easy to use with separated functions, simple patterns and complex patterns detections.
I have done some updates at the Candlestick Patterns Identified script by @repo32. Was a good start of my ideia. Tks for sharing repo.
It will be always under constant development but I want to share this first version to know what can be done to get better, improve, get more desired patterns, know what are you guys using that could be helpful.
I still need to check if all patterns are correct.
Any comments, help and suggestions will be appreciated.

Engulfing Candlestick StrategyEver wondered whether the Bullish or Bearish Engulfing pattern works or has statistical significance? This script is for you. It works across all markets and timeframes.
The Engulfing Candlestick Pattern is a widely used technical analysis pattern that traders use to predict potential price reversals. It consists of two candles: a small candle followed by a larger one that "engulfs" the previous candle. This pattern is considered bullish when it occurs in a downtrend (bullish engulfing) and bearish when it occurs in an uptrend (bearish engulfing).
Statistical Significance of the Engulfing Pattern:
While many traders rely on candlestick patterns for making decisions, research on the statistical significance of these patterns has produced mixed results. A study by Dimitrios K. Koutoupis and K. M. Koutoupis (2014), titled "Testing the Effectiveness of Candlestick Chart Patterns in Forex Markets," indicates that candlestick patterns, including the engulfing pattern, can provide some predictive power, but their success largely depends on the market conditions and timeframe used. The researchers concluded that while some candlestick patterns can be useful, traders must combine them with other indicators or market knowledge to improve their predictive accuracy.
Another study by Brock, Lakonishok, and LeBaron (1992), "Simple Technical Trading Rules and the Stochastic Properties of Stock Returns," explores the profitability of technical indicators, including candlestick patterns, and finds that simple trading rules, such as those based on moving averages or candlestick patterns, can occasionally outperform a random walk in certain market conditions.
However, Jorion (1997), in his work "The Risk of Speculation: The Case of Technical Analysis," warns that the reliability of candlestick patterns, including the engulfing patterns, can vary significantly across different markets and periods. Therefore, it's important to use these patterns as part of a broader trading strategy that includes other risk management techniques and technical indicators.
Application Across Markets:
This script applies to all markets (e.g., stocks, commodities, forex) and timeframes, making it a versatile tool for traders seeking to explore the statistical effectiveness of the bullish and bearish engulfing patterns in their own trading.
Conclusion:
This script allows you to backtest and visualize the effectiveness of the Bullish and Bearish Engulfing patterns across any market and timeframe. While the statistical significance of these patterns may vary, the script provides a clear framework for evaluating their performance in real-time trading conditions. Always remember to combine such patterns with other risk management strategies and indicators to enhance their predictive power.
Candlestick Strength and Volatility ReadoutDisplays a readout on the top right corner of the screen displaying a two basic calculations (volatility and strength; i.e. candlestick size and how close to the highs or lows it closed) for more convenient candlestick (price action) analysis.
Due to restrictions with Pine Script (or my knowledge thereof) only the current and previous candlestick data is shown, rather than the one currently hovered over.
The data is derived via two simple calculations; volatility being division between the range of the candlestick's high and low by the ATR; 'strength' (what I like to call it) being the range of the body by the range of the open to high or low, depending on the facing direction (positive or negative candlestick). These are expressed as percentages and will turn green depending on the set threshold.
Using this, one can effectively automate calculations you'd have to do by hand otherwise. I personally use these as entry filters in my trading, so it helps to not have to measure, remeasure, and divide before each potential entry.
Settings are implemented to change certain variables to your liking.
Candlestick Reversal SignalsTitle: Candlestick Reversal Signals
This Pine Script indicator is designed to identify and plot signals for two key candlestick reversal patterns: Bullish and Bearish Engulfing patterns, as well as Bullish and Bearish Harami patterns. These patterns are widely recognized for their ability to indicate potential trend reversals in the market, providing traders with valuable insights for making informed trading decisions.
Features:
• Bullish Engulfing Pattern:
• Conditions: This pattern is identified when the current candle’s close is higher than the previous candle’s open, and the current candle’s open is lower than the previous candle’s close. Additionally, the current candle’s close must be higher than the previous candle’s close, and the current candle’s open must be lower than the previous candle’s open.
• Signal: When a Bullish Engulfing pattern is detected, a green label is plotted below the relevant bar, indicating a potential upward reversal.
• Bearish Engulfing Pattern:
• Conditions: This pattern is identified when the current candle’s close is lower than the previous candle’s open, and the current candle’s open is higher than the previous candle’s close. Additionally, the current candle’s close must be lower than the previous candle’s close, and the current candle’s open must be higher than the previous candle’s open.
• Signal: When a Bearish Engulfing pattern is detected, a red label is plotted above the relevant bar, indicating a potential downward reversal.
• Bullish Harami Pattern:
• Conditions: This pattern is identified when the previous candle is a bearish candle (open higher than close), and the current candle is a bullish candle (close higher than open) that is contained within the body of the previous bearish candle.
• Signal: When a Bullish Harami pattern is detected, a green label is plotted below the relevant bar, indicating a potential upward reversal.
• Bearish Harami Pattern:
• Conditions: This pattern is identified when the previous candle is a bullish candle (open lower than close), and the current candle is a bearish candle (close lower than open) that is contained within the body of the previous bullish candle.
• Signal: When a Bearish Harami pattern is detected, a red label is plotted above the relevant bar, indicating a potential downward reversal.
Usage:
To use this script, simply add it to your TradingView chart. The script will automatically highlight the Bullish and Bearish Engulfing patterns, as well as Bullish and Bearish Harami patterns, by plotting green and red labels on the chart. These visual signals make it easy to spot potential reversal points, helping traders to identify and capitalize on trading opportunities.
Example:
• When you see a green “Bullish Engulfing” label below a candlestick, it suggests that the market might reverse upwards, signaling a potential buy opportunity.
• Conversely, a red “Bearish Engulfing” label above a candlestick suggests a potential downward reversal, signaling a potential sell opportunity.
• A green “Bullish Harami” label below a candlestick also indicates a potential upward reversal.
• A red “Bearish Harami” label above a candlestick indicates a potential downward reversal.
This indicator is a valuable addition to any trader’s technical analysis toolkit, providing clear and actionable signals based on well-established candlestick patterns. By incorporating these reversal patterns into your analysis, you can enhance your trading strategy and improve your decision-making process.

**Customization & Usage Tips**
- **Inputs Groups**: Strategy toggles, confirmations, exits, backtest dates, and 15+ alert switches—all intuitively grouped.
- **Optimization**: Tune min strengths for aggressive (lower) or conservative (higher) trading; enable/disable filters to suit your style (e.g., disable S/R for scalping).
- **Best For**: Forex, stocks, crypto on 1H–Daily charts. Test on historical data to refine TP/SL.
- **Limitations**: No external data installs; relies on built-in TA functions. Patterns are probabilistic—combine with your risk management.

Volume-Enhanced Candlestick Patterns 1
Overview
Scans for four major candlestick reversal patterns:
Harami
Engulfing
Morning/Evening Star
Piercing Line/Dark Cloud Cover
Underlying logic assumes that, at a turning point, the dominant side (bulls or bears) often delivers a “final” push—either a last surge of buying or selling—before the reversal truly takes hold.
Pattern Toggles
Each individual pattern can be turned on or off in the inputs.
Enable only the patterns you want to monitor to reduce chart clutter and speed up performance.
Volume Filter Toggle
On: Requires volume-based exhaustion or climax to confirm each pattern.
Off: Relies purely on price-action candlestick logic (no volume checks).
Grouped Labels & Confluence
When one or more patterns trigger on the same bar close, a single label is drawn:
Grouping multiple confirmed patterns on one bar increases confluence and signal strength.
Climax Volume × Multiplier
Adjusting this input affects signal frequency and conviction:
Higher multiplier → fewer signals but with stronger volume confirmation
Lower multiplier → more signals, each with a looser volume requirement
Alerts
Built-in alert condition for each individual pattern (bullish/bearish Harami, Engulfing, Star, Piercing, Dark Cloud Cover), so you can receive real-time notifications whenever a confirmation occurs.
