Pattern grafici
Fair Value Gap (FVG) Oscillator [UAlgo]The "Fair Value Gap (FVG) Oscillator " is designed to identify and visualize Fair Value Gaps (FVG) within a given lookback period on a trading chart. This indicator helps traders by highlighting areas where price gaps may signify potential trading opportunities, specifically bullish and bearish patterns. By leveraging volume and Average True Range (ATR) data, the FVG Oscillator aims to enhance the accuracy of pattern recognition and provide more reliable signals for trading decisions.
🔶 Identification of Fair Value Gap (FVG)
Fair Value Gaps (FVG) are specific price areas where gaps occur, and they are often considered significant in technical analysis. These gaps can indicate potential future price movements as the market may return to fill these gaps. This indicator identifies two types of FVGs:
Bullish FVG: Occurs when the current low price is higher than the high price two periods ago. This condition suggests a potential upward price movement.
Obtains with:
low > high
Bearish FVG: Occurs when the current high price is lower than the low price two periods ago. This condition suggests a potential downward price movement.
Obtains with:
high < low
The FVG Oscillator not only identifies these gaps but also verifies them using volume and ATR conditions to ensure more reliable trading signals.
🔶 Key Features
Lookback Period: Users can set the lookback period to determine how far back the indicator should search for FVG patterns.
ATR Multiplier: The ATR Multiplier is used to adjust the sensitivity of the ATR-based conditions for verifying FVG patterns.
Volume SMA Period: This setting determines the period for the Simple Moving Average (SMA) of the volume, which helps in identifying high volume conditions.
Why ATR and Volume are Used?
ATR (Average True Range) and volume are integrated into the Fair Value Gap (FVG) Oscillator to enhance the accuracy and reliability of the identified patterns. ATR measures market volatility, helping to filter out insignificant price gaps and focus on impactful ones, ensuring that the signals are relevant and strong. Volume, on the other hand, confirms the strength of price movements. High volume often indicates the sustainability of these movements, reducing the likelihood of false signals. Together, ATR and volume ensure that the detected FVGs are both significant and supported by market activity, providing more trustworthy trading signals.
Normalized Values: The FVG counts are normalized to enhance the visual representation and interpretation of the patterns on the chart.
Visual Customization and Plotting: Users can customize the colors for positive (bullish) and negative (bearish) areas, and choose whether to display these areas on the chart, also plots the bullish and bearish FVG counts, a zero line, and the net value of FVG counts. Additionally, it uses histograms to display the width of verified bullish and bearish patterns.

60-Day Cycle Long-Only IndicatorThe following indicator generates ‘Buy’ signals based on rotating 60-day cycles. The general theory is that when buying strong, growth-oriented assets, 60-day micro-cycles culminate into larger macro-cycles.
Summary:
Explaining the Upper and Lower Bounds in the 60-Day Cycle Strategy:
1. Cycle High (Upper Bound):
The cycle high is the highest closing price of the asset over the past 60 days. This value acts as the upper boundary of the 60-day cycle, indicating the peak price level during this period. When the current closing price is above this boundary, it suggests a potential distribution phase, where the asset might be overbought, and larger players may be selling off their positions. In the strategy, the cycle high is plotted as a red line on the chart, helping traders visually identify the upper limit of the 60-day trading range.
2. Cycle Low (Lower Bound):
The cycle low is the lowest closing price of the asset over the past 60 days. This value acts as the lower boundary of the 60-day cycle, indicating the trough price level during this period. When the current closing price is below this boundary, it suggests a potential accumulation phase, where the asset might be oversold, and larger players may be accumulating positions at lower prices. In the strategy, the cycle low is plotted as an orange line on the chart, helping traders visually identify the lower limit of the 60-day trading range.
How These Bounds Are Calculated:
• Cycle High: Calculated using the highest closing price over the last 60 trading days. In Pine Script, this is achieved with the function ta.highest(close, cycle_length), where cycle_length is set to 60 days.
• Cycle Low: Calculated using the lowest closing price over the last 60 trading days. In Pine Script, this is achieved with the function ta.lowest(close, cycle_length), where cycle_length is set to 60 days.
Interpretation and Application:
• Buy Signal: A buy signal is generated when the closing price crosses above the cycle low. This indicates a potential end to the bearish phase and the start of a bullish trend.
• Distribution Phase: When the closing price crosses above the cycle high, it suggests the market is in a distribution phase, potentially signaling a bearish trend or a sell-off period.
Example:
On a trading chart, the cycle high and cycle low are plotted as horizontal lines, with their colors distinguishing them (red for cycle high and orange for cycle low). These lines create a visual range within which the asset's price has moved over the last 60 days, helping traders quickly assess whether the current price is near the upper or lower bound.
By identifying and plotting these upper and lower bounds, traders can better understand the current market phase and make more informed trading decisions based on the 60-day cycle strategy. This indicator can be used across various assets.
ThePawnAlgoThe Pawn Algo is a simple indicator that is useful for scalping in sync with a higher timeframe should only be use in clear trending markets.
What it does and How it does it?
The script is based of a simple pattern close above previous candle high means higher prices we can see it in a green bar. Close below previous candle low means lower prices we can see it in a red bar. Close inside previous candle range means price is going to consolidate do some kind of retracement or reversal we mark it in a black or dark color bar.
It plot an arrow and a liquidity level when it detects a change in sentiment from bullish to bearish or bearish to bullish.
It plot the Higher timeframe previous completed candle range into the selected Lower timeframe to easily see the HTF levels into the lower timeframe.
The HTF range change colors depending of previous HTF candles closes following the same idea, close above previous candle high means green range, close below previous candle low means red range and close inside means a gray range. Finally it plots the 50% of the HTF range and the previous close high and low.
Finally it draws a yellow value zone that is the difference between the previous candle close and 50% of the previous range. This zone is ideal for taking continuation trades in favor of the HTF trend.
How to use it?
You must first select a higher timeframe in minutes in the settings default value is 1440minutes then select a lower timeframe is the maximum timeframe in where the HTF will be visible. Default lower timeframe is 15minutes.
Then just wait for the HTF candle to close and engage in the LTF when price is around the value yellow zone in a premium or discount.
Green arrows are automatically plot when HTF is bullish and Red arrows when is bearish by default. But you can enable or disable the arrow signals liquidity levels or configure as you want. Making all signals visible or just the buys or sells.
The script is useful to easily identify the HTF draw on liquidity and recent key levels and then use the LTF structure to enter.
The indicator can be used to identify liquidity, price will seek this liquidity point sometimes sweep and then continue the move. if the liquidity or stop level is broken with a body is a clear change of direction.
Pure Price Action Structures [LuxAlgo]The Pure Price Action Structures indicator is a pure price action analysis tool designed to automatically identify real-time market structures.
The indicator identifies short-term, intermediate-term, and long-term swing highs and lows, forming the foundation for real-time detection of shifts and breaks in market structure.
Its distinctive/unique feature lies in its reliance solely on price patterns, without being limited by any user-defined input, ensuring a robust and objective analysis of market dynamics.
🔶 USAGE
Market structure is a crucial aspect of understanding price action. The script automatically identifies real-time market structure, enabling traders to comprehend market trends more easily. It assists traders in recognizing both trend changes and continuations.
Market structures are constructed from three sets of swing points, short-term swings, intermediary swings, and long-term swings. Market structures associated with longer-term swing points are indicative of longer-term trends.
A market structure shift (MSS), also known as a change of character (CHoCH), is a significant event in price action analysis that may signal a potential shift in market sentiment or direction. Conversely, a break of structure (BOS) is another significant event in price action analysis that typically indicates a continuation of the prevailing trend.
However, it's important to note that while an MSS can be the first indication of a trend reversal and a BOS signifies a continuation of the prevailing trend, they do not guarantee a complete reversal or continuation of the trend.
In some cases, MSS and BOS levels may also act as liquidity zones or areas of price consolidation, rather than indicating a definitive change in market direction or continuation. Traders should approach them with caution and consider additional factors to confirm the validity of the signal before making trading decisions.
🔶 DETAILS
🔹 Market Structures
Market structures are based on the analysis of price action and aim to identify key levels and patterns in the market, where swing point detection is one of the core concepts within ICT trading methodologies and teachings.
Swing points are automatically detected solely based on market movements, without any reliance on user-defined input.
🔹 Utilizing Swing Points
Swing points are not identified in real time as they occur. While short-term swing points may be displayed with a delay of at most one bar, the identification of intermediate and long-term swing points depends entirely on market movements. Furthermore, detection is not limited by any user-defined input but relies solely on pure price action. Consequently, swing points are not typically utilized in real-time trading scenarios.
Traders often analyze historical swing points to discern market trends and pinpoint potential entry and exit points for their trades. By identifying swing highs and lows, traders can:
Recognize Trends: Swing highs and lows help traders identify the direction of the trend. Higher swing highs and higher swing lows indicate an uptrend, while lower swing highs and lower swing lows indicate a downtrend.
Identify Support and Resistance Levels: Swing highs often serve as resistance levels, known in ICT terminology as Buyside Liquidity Levels, while swing lows function as support levels, also referred to in ICT terminology as Sellside Liquidity Levels. Traders can utilize these levels to strategize entry and exit points for their trades.
Spot Reversal Patterns: Swing points can form various reversal patterns, such as double tops or bottoms, head and shoulders patterns, and triangles. Recognizing these patterns can signal potential trend reversals, allowing traders to adjust their strategies accordingly.
Set Stop Loss and Take Profit Levels: In the context of ICT teachings, swing levels represent specific price levels where a concentration of buy or sell orders is anticipated. Traders can target these liquidity levels/pools to accumulate or distribute their positions, essentially using swing points to establish stop loss and take profit levels for their trades.
Overall, swing points provide valuable information about market dynamics and can assist traders in making more informed trading decisions.

Candle Patterns with Volume ValidationHey Guys !
█ This indicator shows validated Hammer and Shooting Star candle patterns based on volume.
This indicator identifies Hammer and Shooting Star patterns and validates them using volume analysis.
Hammer and Shooting Star patterns are candlestick patterns that signal potential reversals in the market.
█ Usages:
A hammer is formed when in a session, the price has fallen, only to reverse and recover to close back near the opening price. This is a sign of strength with the selling having been absorbed in sufficient strength for the buyers to overwhelm the sellers, allowing the market to recover. The hammer is so called as it is ‘hammering out a bottom’, and just like the shooting star, is immensely powerful when combined with Volume Price Analysis (VPA).
The shooting star is a bearish reversal pattern that appears at the top of uptrends. It signifies that prices have peaked and a downward reversal is likely. The presence of high volume strengthens this signal, indicating that the insiders are offloading their positions.
When combined with volume analysis, these patterns become powerful signals. The volume provides context to the price action, helping traders confirm the validity of the pattern. For example, a hammer with high volume suggests strong buying interest, whereas a shooting star with high volume indicates strong selling pressure.
█ Features:
• Detects Hammer and Shooting Star patterns.
• Validates patterns with volume thresholds.
• Color codes patterns based on volume validation.
• Allows customization of volume thresholds and pattern criteria.
• Option to show or hide signals.
█ Parameters:
• Volume Average Period: The period used to calculate the average volume.
• Higher Volume Multiplier: Multiplier to define higher volume threshold.
• Much Higher Volume Multiplier: Multiplier to define much higher volume threshold.
• Enormous Volume Multiplier: Multiplier to define enormous volume threshold.
• Body/Shadow Ratio for Hammer and Shooting Star: Ratio of body to shadow for pattern validation.
• Upper Shadow Limit for Hammer: Upper shadow limit for Hammer pattern.
• Lower Shadow Limit for Shooting Star: Lower shadow limit for Shooting Star pattern.
• Show Hammer Signals: Display signals for Hammer patterns.
• Show Shooting Star Signals: Display signals for Shooting Star patterns.

High & Low Of Custom Session - Breakout True Open [cognyto]This indicator is based on the High & Low Of Custom Session - OpeningRange Breakout (Expo) created by Zeiierman.
It adds new functionality and enhances existing settings, targeting ES, NQ, and YM:
Manages session defaults to 12:00 to 13:00
New true opening fully customizable (default 13:00)
Manages timeframe visualization (default 15m and below)
Manages session draw length until the end of the current session (default NY)
Manages previous sessions, allowing the to be hidden
Improves timezone selection (default NY)
Following the strategy called Paradox detailed by DayTradingRauf, it works with indices like ES, NQ, and YM.
The rules consider three possible profiles:
First
AM session as consolidation (08:00-12:00)
Lunch hour range as consolidation (less than 100 points)
PM session breaking either side of the session range
Second
AM session trending lower (08:00-12:00)
Lunch hour range as consolidation (less than 100 points)
PM session trending higher
Third
AM session trending higher (08:00-12:00)
Lunch hour range as consolidation (less than 100 points)
PM session trending lower
After the session ends, the opening price at 13:00 is automatically drawn as it is a key point for the entry strategy.
The strategy can be monitored using a 5-minute or 15-minute timeframe as follows:
- Wait for a liquidity hunt (either the high or low of the lunch session range or AM is taken).
- If liquidity is taken, switch to the 1-minute timeframe and wait for a CISD (change in the state of delivery), where the price closes below an OB, or consider a breaker block or iFVG to enter the trade.
- Bullish entries should happen below the opening price at 13:00, and bearish entries should happen above.
- Consider a 1:2 reward ratio. However, runners can target the opposite side of the range that was not yet taken.

Smoothed Heiken Ashi Strategy Long OnlyThis is a trend-following approach that uses a modified version of Heiken Ashi candles with additional smoothing. Here are the key components and features:
1. Heiken Ashi Modification: The strategy starts by calculating Heiken Ashi candles, which are known for better trend visualization. However, it modifies the traditional Heiken Ashi by using Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) of the open, high, low, and close prices.
2. Double Smoothing: The strategy applies two layers of smoothing. First, it uses EMAs to calculate the Heiken Ashi values. Then, it applies another EMA to the Heiken Ashi open and close prices. This double smoothing aims to reduce noise and provide clearer trend signals.
3. Long-Only Approach: As the name suggests, this strategy only takes long positions. It doesn't short the market during downtrends but instead exits existing long positions when the sell signal is triggered.
4. Entry and Exit Conditions:
- Entry (Buy): When the smoothed Heiken Ashi candle color changes from red to green (indicating a potential start of an uptrend).
- Exit (Sell): When the smoothed Heiken Ashi candle color changes from green to red (indicating a potential end of an uptrend).
5. Position Sizing: The strategy uses a percentage of equity for position sizing, defaulting to 100% of available equity per trade. This should be tailored to each persons unique approach. Responsible trading would use less than 5% for each trade. The starting capital used is a responsible and conservative $1000, reflecting the average trader.
This strategy aims to provide a smooth, trend-following approach that may be particularly useful in markets with clear, sustained trends. However, it may lag in choppy or ranging markets due to its heavy smoothing. As with any strategy, it's important to thoroughly backtest and forward test before using it with real capital, and to consider using it in conjunction with other analysis tools and risk management techniques.
This has been created mainly to provide data to judge what time frame is most profitable for any single asset, as the volatility of each asset is different. This can bee seen using it on AUXUSD, which has a higher profitable result on the daily time frame, whereas other currencies need a higher or lower time frame. The user can toggle between each time frame and watch for the higher profit results within the strategy tester window.
Other smoothed Heiken Ashi indicators also do not provide buy and sell signals, and only show the change in color to dictate a change in trend. By adding buy and sell signals after the close of the candle in which the candle changes color, alerts can be programmed, which helps this be a more hands off protocol to experiment with. Other smoothed Heiken Ashi indicators do not allow for alarms to be set.
This is a unique HODL strategy which helps identify a change in trend, without the noise of day to day volatility. By switching to a line chart, it removes the candles altogether to avoid even more noise. The goal is to HODL a coin while the color is bullish in an uptrend, but once the indicator gives a sell signal, to sell the holdings back to a stable coin and let the chart ride down. Once the chart gives the next buy signal, use that same capital to buy back into the asset. In essence this removes potential losses, and helps buy back in cheaper, gaining more quantitity fo the asset, and therefore reducing your average initial buy in price.
Most HODL strategies ride the price up, miss selling at the top, then riding the price back down in anticipation that it will go back up to sell. This strategy will not hit the absolute tops, but it will greatly reduce potential losses.

Expectation Breakers [QuantVue]In technical analysis, an "Expectation Breaker" refers to a market event where price action defies typical patterns and anticipated movements, signaling potential shifts in market sentiment and direction.
This indicator looks to take advantage of these opportunities by identifying 2 types of Expectation Breakers: Downside Reversal Buybacks and Upside Reversal Sellbacks.
Downside Reversal
A downside reversals occur when a stock reaches a new high for the user defined lookback period (65 bars by default), and then experiences a larger-than-average drop and closes near its lows. This usually indicates that the market has overextended itself. The expectation is that there will be 2-3 bars of significant selling, following the downside reversal.
However, a notable sign of strength is if the stock rebounds and closes above the downside reversal bar's high within 1-3 bars. This is known as a Downside Reversal Buyback. A rapid recovery following a downside reversal is a powerful bullish indicator, breaking the expectation of lower prices. The quicker price recovers from a downside reversal, the more meaningful it is. Such a swift rebound suggests that the market's strength was underestimated, as downside reversals typically signal a short-term decline.
Upside Reversal
An upside reversal occurs when a stock reaches a new low for the user-defined lookback period (65 bars by default), and then experiences a larger-than-average rise and closes near its highs. This usually indicates that the market has overextended itself to the downside. The expectation is that there will be 2-3 bars of significant buying, following the upside reversal.
However, a notable sign of weakness is if the stock falls back and closes below the upside reversal bar's low within 1-3 bars. This is known as a Upside Reversal Sellback. A rapid fallback following an upside reversal is a powerful bearish indicator, breaking the expectation of higher prices. The quicker price falls back from an upside reversal, the more meaningful it is. Such a swift fallback suggests that the market's weakness was underestimated, as upside reversals typically signal a short-term rally.
The Expectation Breakers indicator identifies these opportunities by first identifying new highs and lows within a defined lookback period. It then compares the true range (TR), average true range (ATR), and closing range to confirm the significance of these reversals. The use of TR and ATR ensures that the reversals are substantial enough to indicate a genuine shift in market sentiment, helping to identify when price action breaks expectations.

Plotting Reference Lines:
Horizontal lines are plotted at specific degree values (0, 10, 20, -10, -20) to provide reference points for the slope's visualization.
Plotting the Slope:
The slope in degrees is plotted as a histogram. The color of the histogram bars is determined by the sign of the slope: green for positive slopes and red for negative slopes.
Additional Comments
The script includes some commented-out sections related to plotting acceleration and displaying labels for slope differences, which are not active in the current implementation.
The script is designed to provide a visual representation of the moving average's rate of change, making it easier to identify periods of rapid price movement and potential trend reversals.
FVG & IFVG ICT [TradingFinder] Inversion Fair Value Gap Signal🔵 Introduction
🟣 Fair Value Gap (FVG)
To spot a Fair Value Gap (FVG) on a chart, you need to perform a detailed candle-by-candle analysis.
Here’s the process :
Focus on Candles with Large Bodies : Identify a candle with a substantial body and examine it alongside the preceding candle.
Check Surrounding Candles : The candles immediately before and after the central candle should have long shadows.
Ensure No Overlap : The bodies of the candles before and after the central candle should not overlap with the body of the central candle.
Determine the FVG Range : The gap between the shadows of the first and third candles forms the FVG range.
🟣 ICT Inversion Fair Value Gap (IFVG)
An ICT Inversion Fair Value Gap, also known as a reverse FVG, is a failed fair value gap where the price does not respect the gap. An IFVG forms when a fair value gap fails to hold the price and the price moves beyond it, breaking the fair value gap.
This marks the initial shift in price momentum. Typically, when the price moves in one direction, it respects the fair value gaps and continues its trend.
However, if a fair value gap is violated, it acts as an inversion fair value gap, indicating the first change in price momentum, potentially leading to a short-term reversal or a subsequent change in direction.
🟣 Bullish Inversion Fair Value Gap (Bullish IFVG)
🟣 Bearish Inversion Fair Value Gap (Bearish IFVG)
🔵 How to Use
🟣 Identify an Inversion Fair Value Gap
To identify an IFVG, you first need to recognize a fair value gap. Just as fair value gaps come in two types, inversion fair value gaps also fall into two categories:
🟣 Bullish Inversion Fair Value Gap
A bullish IFVG is essentially a bearish fair value gap that is invalidated by the price closing above it.
Here’s how to identify it :
Identify a bearish fair value gap.
When the price closes above this bearish fair value gap, it transforms into a bullish inversion fair value gap.
This gap acts as support for the price and drives it upwards, indicating a reduction in sellers' strength and an initial shift in momentum towards buyers.
🟣 Bearish Inversion Fair Value Gap
A bearish IFVG is primarily a bullish fair value gap that fails to hold the price, with the price closing below it.
Here’s how to identify it :
Identify a bullish fair value gap.
When the price closes below this gap, it becomes a bearish inversion fair value gap.
This gap acts as resistance for the price, pushing it downwards. A bearish inversion fair value gap signifies a decrease in buyers' momentum and an increase in sellers' strength.
🔵 Setting
🟣 Global Setting
Show All FVG : If it is turned off, only the last FVG will be displayed.
S how All Inversion FVG : If it is turned off, only the last FVG will be displayed.
FVG and IFVG Validity Period (Bar) : You can specify the maximum time the FVG and the IFVG remains valid based on the number of candles from the origin.
Switching Colors Theme Mode : Three modes "Off", "Light" and "Dark" are included in this parameter. "Light" mode is for color adjustment for use in "Light Mode".
"Dark" mode is for color adjustment for use in "Dark Mode" and "Off" mode turns off the color adjustment function and the input color to the function is the same as the output color.
🟣 Logic Setting
FVG Filter
When utilizing FVG filtering, the number of identified FVG areas undergoes refinement based on a specified algorithm. This process helps to focus on higher quality signals and eliminate noise.
Here are the types of FVG filters available :
Very Aggressive Filter : Introduces an additional condition to the initial criteria. For an upward FVG, the highest price of the last candle must exceed the highest price of the middle candle. Similarly, for a downward FVG, the lowest price of the last candle should be lower than the lowest price of the middle candle. This mode minimally filters out FVGs.
Aggressive Filter : Builds upon the Very Aggressive mode by considering the size of the middle candle. It ensures the middle candle is not too small, thereby eliminating more FVGs compared to the Very Aggressive mode.
Defensive Filter : In addition to the conditions of the Very Aggressive mode, the Defensive mode incorporates criteria regarding the size and structure of the middle candle. It requires the middle candle to have a substantial body, with specific polarity conditions for the second and third candles relative to the first candle's direction. This mode filters out a significant number of FVGs, focusing on higher-quality signals.
Very Defensive Filter : Further refines filtering by adding conditions that the first and third candles should not be small-bodied doji candles. This stringent mode eliminates the majority of FVGs, retaining only the highest quality signals.
Mitigation Level FVG and IFVG : Its inputs are one of "Proximal", "Distal" or "50 % OB" modes, which you can enter according to your needs. The "50 % OB" line is the middle line between distal and proximal.
🟣 Display Setting
Show Bullish FVG : Enables the display of demand-related boxes, which can be toggled on or off.
Show Bearish FVG : Enables the display of supply-related boxes along the path, which can also be toggled on or off.
Show Bullish IFVG : Enables the display of demand-related boxes, which can be toggled on or off.
Show Bearish IFVG : Enables the display of supply-related boxes along the path, which can also be toggled on or off.
🟣 Alert Setting
Alert FVG Mitigation : If you want to receive the alert about FVG's mitigation after setting the alerts, leave this tick on. Otherwise, turn it off.
Alert Inversion FVG Mitigation : If you want to receive the alert about Inversion FVG's mitigation after setting the alerts, leave this tick on. Otherwise, turn it off.
Message Frequency : This parameter, represented as a string, determines the frequency of announcements. Options include: 'All' (triggers the alert every time the function is called), 'Once Per Bar' (triggers the alert only on the first call within the bar), and 'Once Per Bar Close' (activates the alert only during the final script execution of the real-time bar upon closure). The default setting is 'Once per Bar'.
Show Alert time by Time Zone : The date, hour, and minute displayed in alert messages can be configured to reflect any chosen time zone. For instance, if you prefer London time, you should input 'UTC+1'. By default, this input is configured to the 'UTC' time zone.

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.

Engulfing Pattern @Ray_SP500NISAEngulfing Patterns
Bullish and bearish hugging candlesticks are powerful reversal formations that generate signals of potential reversals. These patterns are popular candlestick patterns because they are easy to spot and trade.
When the second candlestick completely wraps around the previous candlestick, it is a signal for a market reversal. A positive line encircled by a negative line may indicate a decline, while a negative line encircled by a positive line may indicate an upturn.
The system is simple enough to display these signs in red for a negative line and in green for a positive line. We hope this helps you in your investment life.

Propulsion Blocks | Flux Charts💎 GENERAL OVERVIEW
Introducing our new Propulsion Blocks indicator! This new indicator can find & render ICT's propulsion blocks in the current ticker. It's highly customizable with detection, invalidation and style settings. For more information, please visit the "HOW DOES IT WORK ?" section.
Features of the new Propulsion Blocks indicator :
Render Bullish & Bearish Propulsion Blocks
Customizable Algorithm
Enable / Disable Historic Zones
Visual Customizability
📌 HOW DOES IT WORK ?
Order blocks occur when there is a high amount of market orders exist on a price range. It is possible to find order blocks using specific formations on the chart. One of which this indicator uses requires a large engulfing candlestick right after another one of the opposite direction. Then if the price comes back to retest the area that two candlesticks create, then it's an order block pattern.
Propulsion blocks are a specific type of order block used in the trading methodology. They build on the concept of order blocks and aim to identify potential areas for strong price movements. They are detected when a candlestick wicks to any existing order block, retesting it. Then a strong momentum in the direction of the order block is needed for the propulsion block to get created. Check this example :
You can use them as entry / exit points, or for confirmations for your trades. For example, a successful retest attempt to a bullish propulsion block might hint a strong bullish momentum. This indicator works best when used together with other ICT concepts.
🚩UNIQUENESS
Propulsion blocks can help traders identify key levels in a chart, and can be used mainly for confirmation. This indicator can identify and show them automatically in your chart, and provides customization settings for order & propulsion block detection and invalidation. Another capability of the indicator is that it combines overlapping order & propulsion blocks so you will have a clean look at the chart without any overlapping zones.
⚙️SETTINGS
1. General Configuration
Show Historic Zones -> This setting will hide invalidated propulsion blocks if enabled.
Max Distance To Last Bar -> This setting defines the maximum range that the indicator will find propulsion blocks to the past. Higher options will make older zones visible.
Zone Invalidation -> Select between Wick & Close price for Order Block & Propulsion Block Invalidation.
Swing Length -> Swing length is used when finding order block formations. Smaller values will result in finding smaller order blocks.
