TXG Wick Detector
Overview The TradeX Guru Wick Detector is a price action utility designed to automatically identify potential "Liquidity Grabs" and "Stop Hunts." It highlights candles where the market has aggressively rejected lower prices, signaling that Smart Money may be absorbing sell orders (the "Samosa Crust Break").
How It Works This script calculates the ratio of the lower wick relative to the total candle range.
If the lower wick represents more than 50% of the total candle size (customizable), a Teal Diamond (💎) is plotted below the bar.
This visual cue alerts you to a strong rejection of lower prices, often found at the end of a correction or during a "Stop Hunt" at key support levels.
Features
Automated Detection: Instantly spots high-rejection candles across any timeframe.
Customizable Sensitivity: Adjust the "Wick %" threshold in the settings to filter for stronger or weaker signals.
Visual Clarity: Non-intrusive diamond markers that do not clutter your chart.
Watermark: Includes the TradeX Guru brand mark for easy sharing.
🚀 How to Use This Tool for Analysis
Do not trade every diamond blindly. Use this 3-Step "Pro" Protocol to filter for high-probability setups:
1. Location (Context is King) Only consider signals that appear at Key Areas of Value:
Support Zones: Is price testing a historical support line?
Round Numbers: Is the signal near a psychological level (e.g., Nifty 25,000, BankNifty 50,000)?
High Volume Nodes (VPVR): Is price rejecting a high-volume cluster?
Rule: If a diamond appears in the middle of a random trend ("No Man's Land"), ignore it.
2. The Trap (The Hunt)
Watch for price to dip below your key level first.
The appearance of the Teal Diamond confirms that this dip was rejected. This suggests that "Stop Loss Liquidity" was hunted and absorbed by institutional buyers.
3. The Trigger (Entry & Risk)
Entry: Wait for the diamond candle to close. Enter on the next candle if bullish momentum continues.
Stop Loss: Place your SL strictly below the Low of the diamond candle.
Logic: If price breaks below the wick, the rejection has failed, and the setup is invalid.
Settings Guide
Wick Size % (Default 0.50): The wick must be 50% of the candle.
Increase to 0.60 for fewer, higher-quality signals.
Decrease to 0.40 for more frequent signals (scalping).
