Bear Bull Ratio (BBR) — Indicator by peacefulLizard50262

candlestickanalysis oscillator sentiment

This indicator calculates the ratio of bearish to bullish candles over a certain window of time. It does this by keeping track of the number or distance (depending on the "Enable True Range Mode" input) between the high and low prices of bullish and bearish candles, respectively, and then dividing the total distance of bullish candles by the sum of the distances of both bullish and bearish candles. The resulting ratio is then plotted on the chart as a percentage. The indicator also plots a smoothed version of the ratio using a weighted moving average and the average of the ratio over the entire length of the chart, for both the "True Range Mode" and "Normal Mode".
