Red Candles with Green Precedent



**Title**: Red Candles with Green Precedent Indicator

**Description**:

This TradingView indicator is designed to help traders identify potential reversal or continuation patterns based on the appearance of consecutive red candles following a green candle. The script marks a region starting from a green candle that precedes at least four consecutive red candles, extending a box forward for a predefined number of bars to analyze the continuation of the trend.

**Key Features**:

- **Consecutive Red Candles Detection**: The indicator counts consecutive red candles that close lower than they open.
- **Initial Green Candle Identification**: Identifies the last green candle before a series of red candles begins. This green candle must close higher than it opens.
- **Visual Box Extension**: Creates a visual box from the open to the high of the green candle and extends it forward to highlight the period of interest.
- **Dynamic Box Termination**: Optionally terminates the box early if a significant green candle appears within the extension period, suggesting a potential reversal.

**Usage**:

1. **Setup**: Apply the indicator to any chart in TradingView. Adjust the number of consecutive red candles to track based on your trading strategy.
2. **Interpretation**: A visual green box will appear when the criteria are met. This box helps focus on the price action following a potentially significant green candle. Traders should watch for price actions within and around the box to make informed decisions.
3. **Alerts**: Consider setting alerts for when a new box is created or when a significant green candle forms that might terminate the box early, indicating potential market movements.

**Suitable for**: This indicator is suitable for traders looking for visual cues about potential bearish exhaustion or the setup for a bullish reversal, particularly in volatile markets.
