Candlestick Analysis

Candlesticks Patterns IdentifiedI was using another script that colored the bars to show the different candle patterns. Thanks to HPotter (www.tradingview.com). Unfortunately, I can't think that fast when looking across a screen of charts with different color bars. Fortunately, Tradingview came up with symbols and names on 2/26/15. I decided to take my favorite symbols and attach them to a name. This makes it easier to see what is going on and where your entry would be if it confirms. Works beautifully for me. Decided to share. I also added the ability to alter what shows up based upon a look back. A bullish engulfing at the top of a trend, or a bearish harami at the bottom of the trend, is nearly useless and clutters the chart. I have the default set for the open of the current bar to be higher or lower than the open from 5 bars back. You can adjust in the settings to what you like. This trend setting is on all the patterns except doji. If you want to see all the candle patterns, set it to "1". The doji can be adjusted as well. I left some other patterns at the bottom of the script, but they are turned off. They became too much of a clutter for me. I prefer DovCaspi's pattern finder for hammers and stars: I use his due to the clean appearance. The default script has: Doji, Bearish Harami, Bullish Harami, Bearish Engulfing, Bullish Engulfing, Piercing Line, Bullish Belt, Bullish Kicker, and Bearish Kicker. You can turn off what you don't like. The Piercing Line, Bullish Belt, and the Kickers will usually show up better in the daily charts.

LBR Paintbars [LazyBear] Added coloring of LB bars above/below Keltner Channel (as suggested by user @20813 below in the comments). Updated code: pastebin.com See comments section below for a sample chart. Copy the code from the pastebin above and update your local copy (TV doesn't allow me to update an already published code -- yet!). Added features: - Switch ON/OFF KC - Mark LB bars above/below KC ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The LBR PaintBars indicator changes the colour of the price bars based on the trend direction (derived from price & volatility bands). This is mostly used as a confirmation indicator. For the Pine coders: I suggest trying stdev() in lieu of atr()...some wild combinations can be derived from this simple idea :) Indicator supports the following options: - Switching on/off volatility bands - Switching on/off LBR colors (lime/maroon). - Color non-LBR bars (blue). Thanks @mseaworthy for pinging me with this idea. Complete list of my indicators: ----------------------------- docs.google.com

Candlestick MathThis is an updated version of my previous post, with the option to specify which symbol you want it to show up on. This is a script I made to do what is called candlestick math (if you're not sure, Google it). It will take the first open, the last close, and the highest high and lowest low from a range of candlesticks, and plot it on top of the chart. Unfortunately, there is no way to make it so you can move it with your mouse, and the bar numbering is not the same as the regular drawing tools, so to figure out what the line number is, create a new script with the text: study("Plot N") plot(n) This will create another chart that will show you the bar numbers that correspond to the script's bar numbers. From there, figure out where you want to start the candlestick math, and enter that number in the "Start" field in the inputs for this script.

ZoneBarsBill Williams Zone and Squat Bars. See New Trading Dimensions by Bill Williams, PhD. Bars are green (green zone) when the Awesome Oscillator and Accelerator/Decelerator are both positive. Bars are red (red zone) when the Awesome Oscillator and Accelerator/Decelerator are both negative. Bars are blue when a squat bar is formed, these indicate a battle between bulls and bears and often happen near trend continuation or trend changes. Caution: Assumes chart is a bar chart - not a candle chart. Caution: Squat bars are accurate only with official exchange volume data - BATS data will give false squat bars.

Indicator: Intrady Momentum IndexThe Intraday Momentum Index (IMI), developed by Tushar Chande, is a cross-breed between RSI and candlestick analysis. IMI determines the candle type that dominated the recent price action, using that to pinpoint the extremes in intraday momentum. As the market tries to bottom after a sell off, there are gradually more candles with green bodies, even though prices remain in a narrow range. IMI can be used to detect this shift, because its values will increase towards 70. Similarly, as the market begins to top, there will be more red candles, causing IMI to decline towards 20. When the market is in trading range, IMI values will be in the neutral range of 40 to 60. Usually intraday momentum leads interday momentum. QStick can show interday momentum, it complements IMI. You will find it in my published indicators. I have added volatility bands based OB/OS, in addition to static OB/OS levels. You can also turn on IMI Ehlers smoothing. BTW, all parameters are configurable, so do check out the options page. List of my other indicators: - - Google doc: docs.google.com

3-Bar-Reversal-Pattern Strategy This startegy based on 3-day pattern reversal described in "Are Three-Bar Patterns Reliable For Stocks" article by Thomas Bulkowski, presented in January,2000 issue of Stocks&Commodities magazine. That pattern conforms to the following rules: - It uses daily prices, not intraday or weekly prices; - The middle day of the three-day pattern has the lowest low of the three days, with no ties allowed; - The last day must have a close above the prior day's high, with no ties allowed; - Each day must have a nonzero trading range.
