Strong Body Close Candle (90%)This indicator highlights Strong Body Close Candles, which are single bars where the real body makes up the vast majority of the total range and the close is positioned very close to the candle’s extreme. By default, the script looks for candles where the body is at least 90% of the full high-low range, and the close falls within the top 10% (for bullish) or bottom 10% (for bearish). These settings ensure that only very strong, conviction-driven candles are marked. The script plots labels above or below qualifying bars, colors the candle accordingly, and provides alert conditions so you can be notified in real time when such a candle forms.
Both percentages are fully adjustable so you can fine-tune the strictness of the definition. For example, if you change the body threshold to 85% and the close-to-extreme threshold to 15%, the script will highlight candles where the body makes up at least 85% of the total range and the close is within 15% of the high or low. This adjustment allows for a slightly looser definition, catching more frequent signals while still maintaining strength criteria. Built-in alerts let you choose between bullish and bearish signals separately (or both), ensuring you won’t miss setups even when you’re away from the chart.
This tool is flexible across timeframes and instruments. On lower timeframes, signals may appear more frequently, highlighting intraday momentum bursts, while on higher timeframes such as daily or weekly charts, these signals often represent periods of strong directional conviction. Traders can combine this indicator with additional filters such as trend direction, volume confirmation, VWAP, or moving averages to improve reliability and fit it into their broader strategy. Because the body and close thresholds are user-defined, you have control over whether the indicator is tuned to rare but powerful candles (stricter settings) or more frequent signals (looser settings).
The indicator is designed to be non-repainting since it only evaluates candles after they close. It can be used purely visually with chart labels and bar coloring or as part of an automated workflow with TradingView alerts. Alerts are triggered on bar close whenever a bullish or bearish strong body close candle is detected, allowing you to integrate them into your trading process via pop-ups, emails, mobile notifications, or webhooks. Whether you’re looking for sharp reversals, momentum continuation signals, or simply want to filter out weaker candles, this tool provides a clear and adjustable framework for identifying high-conviction bars.

Candle Breakout Oscillator [LuxAlgo]The Candle Breakout Oscillator tool allows traders to identify the strength and weakness of the three main market states: bullish, bearish, and choppy.
Know who controls the market at any given moment with an oscillator display with values ranging from 0 to 100 for the three main plots and upper and lower thresholds of 80 and 20 by default.
🔶 USAGE
The Candle Breakout Oscillator represents the three main market states, with values ranging from 0 to 100. By default, the upper and lower thresholds are set at 80 and 20, and when a value exceeds these thresholds, a colored area is displayed for the trader's convenience.
This tool is based on pure price action breakouts. In this context, we understand a breakout as a close above the last candle's high or low, which is representative of market strength. All other close positions in relation to the last candle's limits are considered weakness.
So, when the bullish plot (in green) is at the top of the oscillator (values above 80), it means that the bullish breakouts (close below the last candle low) are at their maximum value over the calculation window, indicating an uptrend. The same interpretation can be made for the bearish plot (in red), indicating a downtrend when high.
On the other hand, weakness is indicated when values are below the lower threshold (20), indicating that breakouts are at their minimum over the last 100 candles. Below are some examples of the possible main interpretations:
There are three main things to look for in this oscillator:
Value reaches extreme
Value leaves extreme
Bullish/Bearish crossovers
As we can see on the chart, before the first crossover happens the bears come out of strength (top) and the bulls come out of weakness (bottom), then after the crossover the bulls reach strength (top) and the bears weakness (bottom), this process is repeated in reverse for the second crossover.
The other main feature of the oscillator is its ability to identify periods of sideways trends when the sideways values have upper readings above 80, and trending behavior when the sideways values have lower readings below 20. As we just saw in the case of bullish vs. bearish, sideways values signal a change in behavior when reaching or leaving the extremes of the oscillator.
🔶 DETAILS
🔹 Data Smoothing
The tool offers up to 10 different smoothing methods. In the chart above, we can see the raw data (smoothing: None) and the RMA, TEMA, or Hull moving averages.
🔹 Data Weighting
Users can add different weighting methods to the data. As we can see in the image above, users can choose between None, Volume, or Price (as in Price Delta for each breakout).
🔶 SETTINGS
Window: Execution window, 100 candles by default
🔹 Data
Smoothing Method: Choose between none or ten moving averages
Smoothing Length: Length for the moving average
Weighting Method: Choose between None, Volume, or Price
🔹 Thresholds
Top: 80 by default
Bottom: 20 by default
Vacuum Candles [XrayAlgo]The Vacuum Candles indicator helps traders identify inefficient price movements—where the price moves significantly but lacks sufficient volume to support it. These inefficiencies may signal weak trends, potential reversals, or false breakouts/breakdowns.
Inefficient candles are visually marked with a darker / black body to indicate when the price movement is disproportionate to the volume.
1. Spotting Potential Reversals
When the indicator marks an inefficient candle, it signals that the price movement may be unsustainable.
In an uptrend: A inefficient bullish candle suggests that the uptrend is losing momentum, potentially leading to a downward reversal.
In a downtrend: A inefficient bearish candle signals that the downtrend may be weakening, with a potential bullish reversal.
2. Identifying Breakout and Breakdown Failures
This indicator is useful for recognizing false breakouts or false breakdowns.
If price breaks resistance but the candle is inefficient, the breakout may be weak and could fail quickly.
If price breaks support with an inefficient bearish candle, the breakdown could be a false signal, with price reverting back above support.
3. Recognizing Weak Trends
Inefficient candles help you spot when a trend is losing strength and could soon reverse or consolidate.
In an uptrend: A series of dark body bullish candles suggests that the uptrend may be weakening, signaling a potential correction or trend reversal.
In a downtrend: A series of dark body bearish candles suggests that the selling pressure is weakening, indicating a potential bullish reversal.
4. Fine-Tuning Entries and Exits
Inefficient candles offer an opportunity to fine-tune your entries and exits based on weak price moves.
Entering a trade: An inefficient candle near key support or resistance can indicate a reversal, making it a good entry point for a counter-trend position.
Exiting a trade: If you're already in a trend, and an inefficient candle appears, it suggests the trend is losing strength, indicating it may be a good time to exit before a potential reversal.
5. Fine-Tuning with Inputs
The Vacuum Candles indicator includes two key inputs:
Length: The number of candles used to calculate the average price movement and volume. A longer length (e.g., 20-30) smooths out the inefficiencies, while a shorter length (e.g., 10-15) makes the indicator more sensitive to recent price moves.
Multiplier: Controls the threshold for what is considered an inefficient candle:
A higher Multiplier (e.g., 1.5–3) filters out smaller inefficiencies and focuses on large discrepancies.
A lower Multiplier (e.g., 0.1–0.9) captures even smaller inefficiencies in highly efficient markets.
No wick candlesОпис коду:
Цей скрипт для Pine Script v6 аналізує свічки на графіку і визначає свічки, що не мають фітіля знизу або згори. Він позначає їх відповідними маркерами та змінює колір свічок на помаранчевий для покращення видимості. Цей індикатор допомагає трейдерам ідентифікувати важливі зони на графіку, де свічки мають специфічні риси (без фітіля), і використовується для виявлення потенційних точок для подальших торгівельних рішень.
Що робить цей індикатор:
Зелені свічки без фітіля знизу: Це свічки, у яких ціна відкриття дорівнює мінімуму свічки. Вони позначаються зеленими стрілками під свічкою.
Червоні свічки без фітіля згори: Це свічки, у яких ціна відкриття дорівнює максимуму свічки. Вони позначаються червоними стрілками над свічкою.
Зміна кольору свічок: Свічки, що відповідають умовам (без фітіля знизу або згори), змінюють свій колір на помаранчевий для підвищення видимості та чіткого виділення важливих зон.
Як використовувати:
Цей індикатор допомагає вам ідентифікувати зони, де ціна не має фітіля знизу (для зелених свічок) або згори (для червоних свічок). Ці свічки можуть бути важливими для трейдерів, оскільки вони часто сигналізують про сильні рівні підтримки або опору, де ймовірно відбудеться ретест.
Важливо:
Чекати ретест зони: Після появи таких свічок (особливо у зонах підтримки або опору) можна очікувати, що ці рівні будуть перевірені ще раз. Якщо ціни повертаються до цих зон, це може бути сигналом для входу в ринок.
Торгівля на ретестах: Якщо ціна після першого відскоку знову наближається до цієї зони (де була свічка без фітіля), можна очікувати відскок або продовження тренду, що створює можливість для вхідної позиції.
_______________________________
Description:
This Pine Script v6 indicator analyzes the candles on the chart and identifies those that have no lower or upper wicks. It marks these candles with appropriate markers and changes the candle colors to orange for better visibility. This indicator helps traders identify important zones on the chart where candles exhibit specific characteristics (no wicks), which can be used to spot potential trading opportunities.
What this indicator does:
Green candles with no lower wick: These are candles where the opening price equals the low of the candle. They are marked with a green arrow below the candle.
Red candles with no upper wick: These are candles where the opening price equals the high of the candle. They are marked with a red arrow above the candle.
Candle color change: Candles that meet the conditions (no lower or upper wick) change their color to orange for better visibility and to clearly highlight important zones.
How to use:
This indicator helps you identify zones where prices have no lower wick (for green candles) or no upper wick (for red candles). These candles may be important for traders, as they often indicate strong support or resistance levels where a retest is likely to occur.
Important:
Wait for a zone retest: After these candles appear (especially at support or resistance zones), you can expect these levels to be tested again. If the price returns to these zones, it could signal an opportunity to enter the market.
Trading on retests: If the price approaches the zone (where a wickless candle occurred) again, it may indicate a bounce or trend continuation, which provides a potential entry point.
Buy&Sell Hollow CandlesThe Hollow Candles Script is a type of candlestick analysis script designed to highlight the following:
Purpose of the Script: This script provides the user with buy and sell signals based on candlesticks that show an upward or downward reversal.
Mechanism of the Script: When a hollow (unfilled) red candle appears, it signals a potential entry, provided that this candle is at a low point, following a series of red candles with higher volume than previous days. Similarly, it gives a sell signal when a green candle appears at a peak with high sell volume surpassing that of prior days. However, the appearance of these candles alone should not prompt an immediate buy or sell; you should wait for a confirming candle to validate the signal.
Sideways Movement Caution: If these signals appear during a sideways or flat trend, it is not advisable to proceed with buying or selling.
Chart Insights: The chart demonstrates certain buy and sell operations along with some non-ideal signals where decision-making should be based on fundamental analytical experience.
The Strat Candle State Table (Two Symbols)The Strat Candle State Table (Two Symbols) – Multi-Timeframe Analysis
This advanced indicator is designed for traders who follow The Strat methodology, providing a quick, clear, and actionable view of candle states across two selected symbols and a chosen timeframe. It allows you to seamlessly integrate multi-symbol analysis into your trading, offering real-time insights into price action and market momentum based on **The Strat’s** powerful principles.
What It Does:
For each selected symbol, the indicator retrieves and analyzes the price data for three candles:
- Candle 1 (C1): The third candle from the current one.
- Candle 2 (C2): The candle directly before the current one (previous candle).
- Current Candle (CC): The live candle, which is still forming.
Using this information, it plots the Scenario 1 (Inside Bar), Scenario 2 (Directional), and **Scenario 3 (Outside Bar)** states for each candle, color-coding them to help you quickly assess market conditions and price action.
Strat Candle States:
- Scenario 1 (Inside Bar): The candle stays within the high and low of the previous candle (indicating consolidation or indecision).
- Scenario 2 (Directional)* The candle breaks either the high (2-up) or low (2-down) of the previous candle, indicating potential continuation in that direction.
- Scenario 3 (Outside Bar): The candle breaks both the high and low of the previous candle, signaling increased volatility and a potential reversal.
Customizable Color Scheme:
The default colors follow these settings (but can be changed to your preference):
- 1U (Inside and Up): Yellow (indicating an inside bar that closed higher).
- 1D (Inside and Down): Orange (indicating an inside bar that closed lower).
- 2U (Two Up): Green if the candle closes higher, Red if the candle closes lower (conflict).
- 2D (Two Down): Red if the candle closes lower, Green if the candle closes higher (conflict).
- 3U (Three Up): Lighter Purple.
- 3D (Three Down): Darker Purple/Magenta.
Each state is dynamically updated based on the actual price action and whether the candle closes above or below the open. Conflict candles (like a 2-up closing red or 2-down closing green) are highlighted, making it easier to spot potential reversals or weakness in the trend.
Timeframe Flexibility:
You can overlay this indicator on any chart regardless of the timeframe. The key is to select the timeframe you want the indicator to plot for when setting up. Whether you're working on a 5-minute chart, daily, or even weekly, the indicator will analyze the candles according to the selected timeframe, giving you the versatility to adapt it to various trading strategies.
Powerful Use Cases:
1. Multi-Symbol Analysis in Real-Time: The Strat Candle State Table displays the candle states for two symbols at once, helping you track multiple instruments without switching charts. This is extremely useful when monitoring correlated assets like SPY and QQQ, or sector-related pairs such as DIA and IWM
2. Seamless Top-Down View: By analyzing the three most recent candles (C1, C2, and the current candle), the indicator allows you to maintain a top-down perspective on price action, spotting setups early and tracking candle state changes across different symbols and timeframes.
3. Enhanced Conflict Detection: The background shading automatically adjusts for conflict candles, such as a 2-up that closes red or a 2-down that closes green. This provides a quick visual cue to warn you when the current trend may be weakening or reversing.
4. Trade Execution Precision: With this table providing constant feedback on price action and candle state, traders can more easily time their entries and exits, whether they are looking for reversals or continuations
5. Focus on Timeframe Continuity: Use this indicator to stay in alignment with The Strat's Timeframe Continuity, ensuring you are trading in the direction of the most aligned candles, across both symbols. This allows for more precise trade management and higher-probability setups.
6. Customizable to Your Strategy: Change the color coding and candle states to match your personal preferences or trading strategy, making this indicator adaptable to your specific needs.
Most Powerful Use Case – Simultaneous Break Detection:
The Strat Candle State Table shines in setups where simultaneous breaks are being monitored across multiple symbols. For example, if both symbols trigger a 2-up or 3-up at the same time, this confirms that momentum is flowing in the same direction for multiple instruments, giving you stronger trade conviction.
By seeing real-time data for two key symbols, you can ensure that you're catching simultaneous breaks, where multiple instruments are signaling the same move. This can be especially effective in index-based trading, where the strength or weakness of multiple sectors or assets must align for a higher probability of success
Williams %R OB/OS Candle Coloring### Description for TradingView Publication

Pump and Dump CandlesDescription:
The Pump and Dump Candles indicator is a robust tool designed to assist traders in identifying potential pump and dump scenarios within the financial markets. This innovative indicator combines key elements of price action and volatility to provide valuable insights into market manipulations and potential risks. This indicator uses ATR to standardize candle sizes as they vary across different assets and timeframes; by using a percentage of the ATR, you can adjust the threshold dynamically based on the volatility of each asset.
Features:
- Pump/dump candles: Candle bars are colored green when it is pumping and red when it is dumping.
- Pump/dump rallies: The background turns green during sequences of consecutive pumping candles and red in the presence of sustained dumping.
- Candle Size Percentage: Users have the flexibility to define a personalized percentage for calculating candle size.
- Wick Exclusion: This option factors in pump and dump candles with substantial body sizes, mitigating the impact of bars with large wicks and smaller candle bodies.
( These inputs can all be modified within the indicator settings )
Utility:
Understanding pump and dump candles and rallies can be a valuable asset for traders seeking to navigate volatile markets effectively. By closely monitoring the color-coded indicators that highlight pumping and dumping phases, traders gain insights into abrupt and often exaggerated price movements. This information aids in identifying potential short-term trends and anticipating market reversals. Pump and dump rallies, signaled by consecutive pumping or dumping candles, provide a visual representation of sustained buying or selling pressure, allowing traders to assess the strength and duration of market sentiment. Armed with this knowledge, traders can make informed decisions, implement risk management strategies, and capitalize on short-term opportunities, thereby enhancing their overall trading proficiency in dynamic market conditions.

Inside candle (Inside Bar) Strategy- by smartanuThe Inside Candle strategy is a popular price action trading strategy that can be used to trade in a variety of markets. Here's how you can trade the Inside Candle strategy using the Pine script code provided:
1. Identify an Inside Candle: Look for a candlestick pattern where the current candle is completely engulfed within the previous candle's high and low. This is known as an Inside Candle.
2. Enter a Long Position: If an Inside Candle is identified, enter a long position at the open of the next candle using the Pine script code provided.
3. Set Stop Loss and Take Profit: Set a stop loss at a reasonable level to limit your potential losses if the trade goes against you. Set a take profit at a reasonable level to take profit when the price reaches the desired level.
4. Manage the Trade: Monitor the trade closely and adjust the stop loss and take profit levels if necessary. You can use the Pine script code to automatically exit the trade when the stop loss or take profit level is hit.
5. Exit the Trade: Exit the trade when the price reaches the take profit level or the stop loss level is hit.
It's important to note that the Inside Candle strategy is just one of many strategies that traders use to trade the markets. It's important to perform your own analysis and use additional indicators before making any trades. Additionally, it's important to practice proper risk management techniques and never risk more than you can afford to lose.

Session candles & reversals / quantifytools— Overview
Like traditional candles, session based candles are a visualization of open, high, low and close values, but based on session time periods instead of typical timeframes such as daily or weekly. Session candles are formed by fetching price at session start (open), highest price during session (high), lowest price during session (low) and price at session end (close). On top of candles, session based moving average is formed and session reversals detected. Session reversals are also backtested, using win rate and magnitude metrics to better understand what to expect from session reversals and which ones have historically performed the best.
By default, following session time periods are used:
Session #1: London (08:00 - 17:00, UTC)
Session #2: New York (13:00 - 22:00, UTC)
Session #3: Sydney (21:00 - 06:00, UTC)
Session #4: Tokyo (00:00 - 09:00, UTC)
Session time periods can be changed via input menu.
— Reversals
Session reversals are patterns that show a rapid change in direction during session. These formations are more familiarly known as wicks or engulfing candles. Following criteria must be met to qualify as a session reversal:
Wick up:
Lower high, lower low, close >= 65% of session range (0% being the very low, 100% being the very high) and open >= 40% of session range.
Wick down:
Higher high, higher low, close <= 35% of session range and open <= 60% of session range.
Engulfing up:
Higher high, lower low, close >= 65% of session range.
Engulfing down:
Higher high, lower low, close <= 35% of session range.
Session reversals are always based on prior corresponding session , e.g. to qualify as a NY session engulfing up, NY session must have a higher high and lower low relative to prior NY session , not just any session that has taken place in between. Session reversals should be viewed the same way wicks/engulfing formations are viewed on traditional timeframe based candles. Essentially, wick reversals (light green/red labels) tell you most of the motion during session was reversed. Engulfing reversals (dark green/red labels) on the other hand tell you all of the motion was reversed and new direction set.
— Backtesting
Session reversals are backtested using win rate and magnitude metrics. A session reversal is considered successful when next corresponding session closes higher/lower than session reversal close . Win rate is formed by dividing successful session reversal count with total reversal count, e.g. 5 successful reversals up / 10 reversals up total = 50% win rate. Win rate tells us what are the odds (historically) of session reversal producing a clean supporting move that was persistent enough to close that way too.
When a session reversal is successful, its magnitude is measured using percentage increase/decrease from session reversal close to next corresponding session high/low . If NY session closes higher than prior NY session that was a reversal up, the percentage increase from prior session close (reversal close) to current session high is measured. If NY session closes lower than prior NY session that was a reversal down, the percentage decrease from prior session close to current session low is measured.
Average magnitude is formed by dividing all percentage increases/decreases with total reversal count, e.g. 10 total reversals up with 1% increase each -> 10% net increase from all reversals -> 10% total increase / 10 total reversals up = 1% average magnitude. Magnitude metric supports win rate by indicating the depth of successful session reversal moves.
To better understand the backtesting calculations and more importantly to verify their validity, backtesting visuals for each session can be plotted on the chart:
All backtesting results are shown in the backtesting panel on top right corner, with highest win rates and magnitude metrics for both reversals up and down marked separately. Note that past performance is not a guarantee of future performance and session reversals as they are should not be viewed as a complete strategy for long/short plays. Always make sure reversal count is sufficient to draw reliable conclusions of performance.
— Session moving average
Users can form a session based moving average with their preferred smoothing method (SMA , EMA , HMA , WMA , RMA) and length, as well as choose which sessions to include in the moving average. For example, a moving average based on New York and Tokyo sessions can be formed, leaving London and Sydney completely out of the calculation.
— Visuals
By default, script hides your candles/bars, although in the case of candles borders will still be visible. Switching to bars/line will make your regular chart visuals 100% hidden. This setting can be turned off via input menu. As some sessions overlap, each session candle can be separately offsetted forward, clearing the overlaps. Users can also choose which session candles to show/hide.
Session periods can be highlighted on the chart as a background color, applicable to only session candles that are activated. By default, session reversals are referred to as L (London), N (New York), S (Sydney) and T (Tokyo) in both reversal labels and backtesting table. By toggling on "Numerize sessions", these will be replaced with 1, 2, 3 and 4. This will be helpful when using a custom session that isn't any of the above.
Visual settings example:
Session candles are plotted in two formats, using boxes and lines as well as plotcandle() function. Session candles constructed using boxes and lines will be clear and much easier on the eyes, but will apply only to first 500 bars due to Tradingview related limitations. Rest of the session candles go back indefinitely, but won't be as clean:
All colors can be customized via input menu.
— Timeframe & session time period considerations
As a rule of thumb, session candles should be used on timeframes at or below 1H, as higher timeframes might not match with session period start/end, leading to incorrect plots. Using 1 hour timeframe will bring optimal results as greatest amount historical data is available without sacrificing accuracy of OHLC values. If you are using a custom session that is not based on hourly period (e.g. 08:00 - 15:00 vs. 08.00 - 15.15) make sure you are using a timeframe that allows correct plots.
Session time periods applied by default are rough estimates and might be out of bounds on some charts, like NYSE listed equities. This is rarely a problem on assets that have extensive trading hours, like futures or cryptocurrency. If a session is out of bounds (asset isn't traded during the set session time period) the script won't plot given session candle and its backtesting metrics will be NA. This can be fixed by changing the session time periods to match with given asset trading hours, although you will have to consider whether or not this defeats the purpose of having candles based on sessions.
— Practical guide
Whether based on traditional timeframes or sessions, reversals should always be considered as only one piece of evidence of price turning. Never react to them without considering other factors that might support the thesis, such as levels and multi-timeframe analysis. In short, same basic charting principles apply with session candles that apply with normal candles. Use discretion.
Example #1 : Focusing efforts on session reversals at distinct support/resistance levels
A reversal against a level holds more value than a reversal by itself, as you know it's a placement where liquidity can be expected. A reversal serves as a confirming reaction for this expectation.
Example #2 : Focusing efforts on highest performing reversals and avoiding poorly performing ones
As you have data backed evidence of session reversal performance, it makes sense to focus your efforts on the ones that perform best. If some session reversal is clearly performing poorly, you would want to avoid it, since there's nothing backing up its validity.
Example #3 : Reversal clusters
Two is better than one, three is better than two and so on. If there are rapid changes in direction within multiple sessions consecutively, there's heavier evidence of a dynamic shift in price. In such case, it makes sense to hold more confidence in price halting/turning.

NSDT Bearish-Bullish CandlesThis is another interesting take on candlesticks . These Bearish-Bullish Candles do not show the wicks. Instead, the upper wick is made into a Red body and the lower wick is made into a Green body. If you match the candle body color in the chart settings (or turn off the candles completely), you get a unique way of seeing how Bearish or how Bullish a candle is because the wick will now match the body size and color.
This indicator is very similar to our NSDT Special High-Low Candles.

HTF Candle Extremes Zigzag (Drawn on LTF)HTF Candle Extremes Zigzag (Drawn on LTF)
This indicator plots zigzag lines connecting the extremes (highs and lows) of Higher Timeframe (HTF) candles directly on your lower timeframe (LTF) chart. It visually highlights trend changes and HTF candle structure by drawing colored lines representing uptrends and downtrends based on HTF candle extremes.
"Key Features"
Higher Timeframe Tracking: Select any HTF to track candle extremes using the built-in security function.
Zigzag Lines: Connects HTF candle lows to highs in an intuitive zigzag pattern.
Trend Indication: Uptrend lines are green, downtrend lines are red (customizable colors).
Customizable Line Width: Adjust the thickness of the zigzag lines for better visibility.
Drawn on Lower Timeframe: All lines appear on your active lower timeframe chart, allowing easy visual correlation.
"How It Works"
The script fetches the open, high, low, close, and time data of the specified HTF candle. It detects new HTF bars and identifies trend direction changes by comparing the highs and lows of consecutive HTF candles.
- When an uptrend is detected, vertical lines are drawn from low to high of the HTF candle, connected to the previous extreme low.
- When a downtrend is detected, vertical lines are drawn from high to low, connected to the previous extreme high.
- Transitions between trends are highlighted by connecting the last extreme of the previous trend to the current extreme, creating a clean zigzag pattern.
Usage Notes:
Ideal for traders who want to visualize HTF market structure and trend changes while analyzing price action on lower timeframes.

fractal candle The fractal candle technical indicator to identify potential trend reversals in financial markets. It works by counting a series of price bars and looking for specific patterns that indicate when a trend is likely to reverse.
How the Indicator Works:
Counting Candles:
The indicator compares the closing price of the current candle with the closing price from 4 candles ago.
If the current close is higher, the bullish (buy) count increases.
If the current close is lower, the bearish (sell) count increases.
When a count reaches 9 or 13, it may signal a trend reversal.
Buy and Sell Setup:
A buy setup occurs when there have been 9 consecutive candles where each close is lower than the close 4 candles before. This suggests a possible bullish reversal.
A sell setup occurs when there have been 9 consecutive candles where each close is higher than the close 4 candles before. This suggests a possible bearish reversal.
Support and Resistance Levels:
The indicator tracks previous highs and lows during buy/sell setups to identify potential support and resistance levels.
These levels can help traders decide where price might reverse or consolidate.
Candle Coloring for Visual Aid:
The script changes candle colors:
Red for sell signals 📉
Green for buy signals 📈
Different shades for overshoot conditions (extended trends)
