Magic CandleThis indicator is very simple, but surprisingly effective, and I haven't found any mention of something similar, so here it is. I hope it helps you in your stock trading.
Someone made a comment in a trading room that the 8 am candle of the stock looked odd, so I quickly checked all the other stocks I had on my screen, and for all of them, the 8 am candle was just a little strange. What's more, is that the stock would often respond to the high and low values of that 8 am candle later on in the day. It turned out to be quite an important support and resistance level indicator for stocks which I've used in my trading ever since I discovered it.
After testing it out day after day on multiple stocks, I decided to write this indicator, which not only projects the high and low values of the 8 am candle, but also the previous day's closing price.
If you find that there's another "magic candle" out there for Forex or Crypto, please let me know!
You have the option to set the "magic candle" to another time, if you want to experiment with things.
Futures Engulfing Candle Size Strategy (Ticks, TP/SL)The Futures Candle Size Strategy is designed to identify and trade significant price movements in the futures market based on candle size. It is optimized for futures instruments like ES, NQ, or CL, where precise tick-level calculations are essential. The strategy includes a customizable take profit and stop loss in ticks and operates only within a specified time window (e.g., 7:00 AM to 9:15 AM CST).
Key Features:
Candle Size Threshold: Trades are triggered when the candle's high-to-low range exceeds the defined threshold in ticks.
Time Filter: Limits trades to the most active market hours, specifically between 7:00 AM and 9:15 AM CST.
Take Profit and Stop Loss: Customizable exit levels in ticks to manage risk and lock in profits.
Long and Short Trades: Automatically places buy or sell orders based on the candle's direction (bullish or bearish).
Alerts: Sends alerts whenever a trade is triggered, helping you stay informed in real-time.
How It Works:
The strategy calculates the size of each candle in ticks and compares it to the user-defined threshold.
If the candle size meets or exceeds the threshold within the specified time range, it triggers a long or short trade.
The trade automatically exits when the price hits the take profit or stop loss levels.
Inside Candle - Multi TimeframesIndicator looks for inside candle on 3 timeframes. Chart's default timeframe and 2 higher timeframes to spot Inside candle on any of these timeframes.
Main purpose was to look at multiple inside candle at multiple timeframes to identify consolidation within consolidation and implement intraday, hence for 15min chart timeframe.
However, code works for all timeframes from 5 min to quarterly and higher timeframes will be picked automatically.

Custom Candle Body Color and EMA Crossover IndicatorWe determine if the price is below EMA 9 by comparing the close price with EMA 9.
We determine if the current candle body is huge compared to the previous candle's body.
We plot EMA 9 in black color and EMA 200 in green color.
We plot blue triangles below the bars for EMA crossover above and red triangles above the bars for EMA crossover below.
We set the color of the candle body to red if the price is below EMA 9 and to green if the price is above EMA 9, only when the current candle body is huge compared to the previous candle's body.

Williams Vix Fix OHLC candles plot indicator (Tartigradia)OHLC candles plot of the Williams VixFix indicator, which allows to draw trend lines.
Williams VixFix is a realized volatility indicator developed by Larry Williams, and can help in finding market bottoms.
Indeed, as Williams describe in his paper, markets tend to find the lowest prices during times of highest volatility, which usually accompany times of highest fear. The VixFix is calculated as how much the current low price statistically deviates from the maximum within a given look-back period.
The Williams VixFix indicator is usually presented as a curve or histogram. The novelty of this indicator is to present the data as a OHLC candles plot: whereas the original Williams VixFix calculation only involves the close value, we here use the open, high and low values as well. This led to some mathematical challenges because some of these calculations led to absurd values, so workarounds had to be found, but in the end I think the result was worth it, it reproduces the VIX chart quite well.
A great additional value of the OHLC chart is that it shows not just the close value, but all the values during the session: open, high and low in addition to close. This allows to draw trend lines and can provide additional information on momentum and sentiment. In addition, other indicators can be used on it, as if it was a price chart, such as RSI indicators (see RSI+ (alt) indicator for example).

Replicating the CBOE VIX using a synthetic volatility index trading algorithm, Dayne Cary and Gary van Vuuren, Cogent Economics & Finance, Volume 7, 2019, Issue 1, doi.org
This indicator includes only the Williams VixFix as an OHLC candles or bars plot, and price / vixfix candles plot, as well as the typical vixfix histogram. Indeed, it is much more practical for unbounded range indicators to be plotted in their own separate panel, hence why this indicator is released separately, so that it can work and be scaled adequately out of the box.
Note that the there are however no bottom buy signals. For a more complete indicator, which also includes the OHLC candles plots present here, but also bottom signals and Inverse VixFix (top signals), see:
Set Index symbol to SPX, and index_current = false, and timeframe Weekly, to reproduce the original VIX as close as possible by the VIXFIX (use the Add Symbol option, because you want to plot CBOE:VIX on the same timeframe as the current chart, which may include extended session / weekends). With the Weekly timeframe, off days / extended session days should not change much, but with lower timeframes this is important, because nights and weekends can change how the graph appears and seemingly make them different because of timing misalignment when in reality they are not when properly aligned.

HTF Candle Boxes for LTF Charts
This indicator allows you to show an outline of a Higher Time Frame (HTF) candle on a Lower Time Frame (LTF) chart. Options include selecting the HTF interval, and an option to either show a single shaded Box for the candle (High to Low), or a shaded box for the body (Open to Close) with the High to Low shown in an unshaded box. The purpose is to easily visualise what the previous HTF candles look like as you are working on the lower charts, for example was yesterday's candle Bullish, Bearsish, indecision, a Doji etc.
Fusion: Big Arty CandlesAnyone who follows Arty knows about his "Big A** Candle" strategies.
I didn't like the BAC indicators that had code available so I wrote this one that has some decent flexibility and display options.
You can use this to enter a trade immediately after a BAC, probably in the opposite direction and ride the pullback that usually occurs or just use it to avoid trading until things settle down. I use it to avoid trading for a few bars on the 15 minute timeframe on bitcoin.
The settings are certainly not optimized so set them to whatever suits your needs as the defaults will probably be wrong for you.
The code is structured to easily drop into a bigger system so use it as a lone indicator or add the code to some bigger project you are creating. If you do integrate it into something else then send me a note as it would be nice to know it's being well used.
Finally, if you find value please do make a comment, give a thumbs up etc.
Enjoy and good luck!
Fear and Greed Index CandlesticksThis colours the candlesticks based on my 'Fear and Greed Index'.
All calculations are explained in the code.
The index is mainly based upon the components of the popular fear and greed index website. I've annotated the components in the code for you to look at.
If you're interested, you can replace the final variable 'Total' (within the 'barcolor' function at the very end) with any of the final outputs of the subcomponents to see the results of that single part.
Red = Greed
Green = Fear
Enjoy!

Visual Candlestick Blender (Analysis Tool), by @BlueJayBird- This is a analysis tool.
Brief Description
- It generates candlestick containers for current timeframe, using OPEN/HIGH/CLOSE/LOW data from higher time frames.
- Current version supports up to 4 CVB at the same time. Usually using only 2 is enough.
- Vertical extended divisions for 1h, 4h, 1D and 1W using background lines are included too.
* Report any bugs or feedback you have.
NOTE. At current unclosed candlestick , some weird line painting it is expected. It is not a bug, it is a Trading View feature that I haven't been able to solve yet. To solve this, setting the VCB off and then on should be enough.
EMA CandlesIndicator that draws EMA candles as overlay. Uses the EMA values for Open, Close, High, and Low each individually to draw each EMA candle. Set at 30 bar EMA by default.
Consecutive Candle Count Momentum StrategyVery simple strategy based on consecutive candle count. Simple but can be very profitable if you know how to execute.
Example:
- Buy when consecutive up closes exceeds 3
- Sell when consecutive down closes exceeds 3
For a buy signal, if price closes higher within 5 candles, it is defined as a win.
For a sell signal, if price closes lower within 5 candles, it is defined as a win.
Win rates for buy/sell signals are calculated over history of security.

cooltoyz: shadow candlesAnother tool for the cooltoyz series :)
tired of having to look at multiple time frames for a ticker, and having to mentally mix them to try to guess/visualize trends, or support/resistance levels? so was i, and with this tool i let the chart do the heavy lifting :)
with this, upper time frames are visualized as shadows imposed on the chart itself. there are two levels:
level 1 - represented with strong green/red for candle body, and a thin line for the candle wicks
level 2 - light green/red for the candle body, lighter still for the wicks
it was the best visually appealing representation i could come with, if you find a better one share it in comments, please :)
basically works the same as the previous tool, the ghost candle, but with two levels of time frames superimposed. the same notes and warnings from the ghost candle apply, so go read them, too lazy for a copypasta :)
you can find the ghost candle here:
Daily Average 5m Candle SizeThis indicator measures the average size of each 5 min candle then works out the end of day average for you. Very important for profit targets and stops
Candle RvolCandle Rvol is designed to be used on the 10minute chart, using it on other timeframes will result in unintended outcomes.
Candle Rvol has two dynamic features:
- creates and array for every 10m candle over the last 14 trading days, the current candle volume is then compared against the average of the corresponding candles from the past 14 days to give a dynamic relative volume expressed as a percentage (this means the high volume near the open and close does not skew the average volume data)
- for the current candle Rvol percentage, a check is made every 1m during the 10m candle and if the volume is on track to being over 100% the background will dynamically show a green colour.
PENTAD THEORY 30 MINUTE INITIAL BALANCE With Candle HighlightThis indicator is designed to highlight the 30-minute initial balance range, visualize key retracement levels, and provide insights into market behavior based on defined conditions. It also enhances clarity by applying specific color changes to the :06 and :36 minute candle in relative 30-minute intervals.
Key Features:
Initial Balance Box:
Automatically creates a price range (box) representing the first 6 minutes of each 30-minute interval.
The box dynamically updates during this period to capture the high and low prices.
Color-Coded Zones:
Inside the Box: Yellow background indicates price trading within the range.
Above the Box: Green background shows price breaking above the range.
Below the Box: Red background reflects price breaking below the range.
EMA Overlay:
Plots 3 customizable EMAs (default lengths: 9, 21, 55).
Each EMA can be toggled on/off and colored individually for trend analysis.
Retracement Levels:
Automatically calculates and displays key Fibonacci retracement levels (61.8% and 38.2%) based on the box size.
Adds a midline for additional price reference.
Candle Highlighting:
The :06 and :36 minute candle in relative 30-minute intervals is highlighted with a customizable blue color to draw attention to specific market activity.
The break above or below the 6 minute candle or the close of the 6 minute candle outside the box can help determine the direction of the 30-minute interval.
How to Use:
Trend Confirmation:
Use the EMAs to identify overall trend direction. For example, a bullish trend is indicated when shorter EMAs (e.g., 9 EMA) are above longer ones (e.g., 55 EMA).
Breakout and Retracement Analysis:
Watch for price breaking out of the initial balance box.
Observe retracement levels (61.8% and 38.2%) as potential areas for reversal or continuation.
Candle Highlight:
Pay special attention to the :06 or :36 minute candle, which is highlighted to signify its relevance in the relative 30-minute cycle.
Customization:
Adjust colors and EMA settings via the input menu to align with your trading style and chart aesthetics.
Ideal For:
Intraday traders looking to analyze initial balance ranges.
Traders focused on breakout, retracement, and trend-following strategies.
Those who benefit from visual clarity and real-time market insights.
Notes:
Ensure your chart is set to a 3-minute timeframe or lower for optimal performance.
This indicator is most effective when combined with other confluence factors, such as support/resistance zones and volume analysis.
Uphorico Candle RangesThis script allows you to see the high and low prices of a specific previous timeframe directly on your TradingView chart. You can choose which previous period to view—previous month, week, day, or last Monday—and the script will plot two horizontal lines for the high and low prices of that period. These lines help you quickly identify key levels based on past performance.
Features of the Script:
1. Select Previous Timeframe: You can choose between:
• Month: Shows the high and low of the previous month.
• Week: Shows the high and low of the previous week.
• Day: Shows the high and low of the previous day.
• Monday: Shows the high and low of the most recent Monday.
2. Line Customization:
• Color: Choose different colors for the high and low lines.
• Thickness: Adjust the line thickness (1–5).
• Style: Choose from solid, dashed, or dotted lines.
3. Touch Source Candle Option:
• If enabled, the lines will start directly at the last candle of the selected timeframe (e.g., at the last candle of the previous month or week).
• If disabled, the lines will start from the current bar and extend to the right.
How It Works:
• The script retrieves the high and low prices from your selected previous timeframe and draws two horizontal lines (one for the high and one for the low).
• These lines provide a quick visual reference for key support and resistance levels based on past periods, making it easier to spot potential price action zones.
This tool is designed to be simple and customizable, helping you analyze past levels and make better trading decisions.
Time Based 3 Candle Model CRT FrameworkThe 3 Candle Model Overview:
The 3 Candle Model serves as a sophisticated framework for traders to navigate the complexities of financial markets, particularly within futures and forex trading. This guide not only elaborates on the model's key features but also emphasizes its originality and practical usefulness in the TradingView community. The core principle of the 3 Candle Model revolves around understanding how candle patterns can represent significant price ranges, offering valuable insights into potential market movements. By integrating the model with other critical trading concepts such as the Power of Three (PO3), Open-High-Low-Close (OHLC), and Turtle Soup setups, traders can enhance their ability to identify high-probability trades and achieve better trading outcomes.
Indicator includes:
3 Customizable Timeframe choices to fractally frame 3 candle models for precision
Live Timers for each timeframe to always be aware of the models timing
Parent Candle tracking on every preffered timeframe until new models parent candle is printed
Key Features of the 3 Candle Model
The 3 Candle Model primarily utilizes a three-candle structure, where the first candle establishes a price range, the second candle may act as a confirmation (often termed a "turtle soup"), and the third candle provides the breakout or continuation. This structure is pivotal in determining entry and exit points for trades, ensuring that each trading decision is backed by solid price action analysis.
OHLC Principle:
The Open-High-Low-Close (OHLC) concept is integral to the 3 Candle Model, allowing traders to analyze price action more effectively. Understanding the relationship between these four price points helps traders gauge market sentiment and potential reversals. By incorporating OHLC into the model, traders can develop a deeper understanding of market structure and its implications for future price movements.
Delivery States:
The 3 Candle Model emphasizes the importance of delivery states, which refer to the market's phase during specific time frames. Recognizing these states aids traders in determining the appropriate conditions for entering trades, particularly when combined with the power of three and candle range patterns. This understanding is crucial for positioning trades in alignment with market momentum.
High Probability Setups:
By aligning the 3 Candle Model with inside bar setups, traders can optimize their strategies for high-probability outcomes. This approach capitalizes on the inherent fractal nature of price movements, where previous patterns repeat at different scales. The combination of the model and inside bar setups enhances the trader's toolkit, allowing for more strategic trade placements.
Turtle Soup Formation:
The 3 Candle Model intricately connects with the Turtle Soup concept, which focuses on false breakouts. Identifying these formations at critical levels enhances the trader's ability to anticipate reversals or continuation patterns. The timing of these setups, particularly during specified times like 3:00 AM, 6:00 AM, 9:00 AM, and 1:00 PM, is crucial for maximizing trade success.
Using the 3 Candle Model in Trading
Integration with PO3:
The Power of Three (PO3) is a fundamental aspect of the 3 Candle Model that emphasizes the significance of three distinct stages of price delivery. Traders can leverage this principle by observing the initial range, confirming patterns, and executing trades during the third phase, leading to higher risk-to-reward ratios. This three-stage approach enhances a trader's ability to make informed decisions based on market behavior.
Targeting Midpoints:
Successful application of the 3 Candle Model involves targeting the midpoints of identified ranges. This practice not only provides strategic entry points but also enhances the probability of reaching desired profit levels. By targeting these midpoints, traders can refine their exit strategies and manage risk more effectively.
Aligning with Market Timing:
Timing is everything in trading. By synchronizing the 3 Candle Model setups with the aforementioned key timeframes, traders can better position themselves to exploit market dynamics. This alignment also facilitates the identification of high-quality trades that exhibit strong potential for profitability.
Prioritizing A+ Setups:
By focusing on the 3 Candle Model and its associated concepts, traders can prioritize A+ setups that exhibit a strong alignment of factors. This methodical approach enhances the quality of trades taken, leading to improved overall performance. By cultivating a strategy centered on high-probability setups, traders can maximize their return on investment.
Ensuring Originality and Usefulness
To meet the TradingView community guidelines, it is essential that this script is both original and useful. The 3 Candle Model, in its essence, is designed to provide traders with a unique perspective on market movements, free from generic or rehashed strategies. This tool integrates unique interpretations of the three-candle model and the associated strategies that are distinctly articulated and innovative.
Practical Applications: there are many practical applications of the 3 Candle Model in various trading contexts. This model in conjunction with other strategies to cultivate high-probability trade setups that can enhance performance across diverse market conditions.
Educational Value: This script is crafted with educational value in mind, providing insights that extend beyond mere trading signals. It encourages users to develop a deeper understanding of market mechanics and the interplay between price action, time, and trader psychology.
Conclusion
The 3 Candle Model provides a comprehensive framework for traders to enhance their trading strategies in the futures and forex markets. By understanding and applying the principles of this model alongside the Power of Three, OHLC concepts, and Turtle Soup formations, traders can significantly improve their ability to identify high-probability trades. The emphasis on timing, delivery states, and alignment of ranges ensures that traders are well-equipped to navigate the complexities of market movements, ultimately leading to more consistent and rewarding trading outcomes.
As trading involves risk, it is essential for traders to utilize these principles judiciously and maintain a disciplined approach to their trading strategies. By adhering to the TradingView community guidelines and emphasizing originality, usefulness, and detailed descriptions, this 3 Candle Model script stands as a valuable resource for traders seeking to refine their skills and achieve greater success in the financial markets.
Through this detailed exploration of the 3 Candle Model, traders will not only learn to recognize and exploit key patterns in price action but also appreciate the interconnectedness of various trading strategies that can significantly enhance their performance and profitability.
