Simple Candle Strategy# Candle Pattern Strategy - Pine Script V6 ## Overview A TradingView trading strategy script (Pine Script V6) that identifies candlestick patterns over a configurable lookback period and generates trading signals based on pattern recognition rules. ## Strategy Logic The strategy analyzes the most recent N candlesticks (default: 5) and classifies their patterns into three categories, then generates buy/sell signals based on specific pattern combinations. ### Candlestick Pattern Classification Each candlestick is classified as one of three types: | Pattern | Definition | Formula | |---------|-----------|---------| | **Close at High** | Close price near the highest price of the candle | `(high - close) / (high - low) ≤ (1 - threshold)` | | **Close at Low** | Close price near the lowest price of the candle | `(close - low) / (high - low) ≤ (1 - threshold)` | | **Doji** | Opening and closing prices very close; long upper/lower wicks | `abs(close - open) / (high - low) ≤ threshold` | ### Trading Rules | Condition | Action | Signal | |-----------|--------|--------| | Number of Doji candles ≥ 3 | **SKIP** - Market is too chaotic | No trade | | "Close at High" count ≥ 2 + Last candle closes at high | **LONG** - Bullish confirmation | Buy Signal | | "Close at Low" count ≥ 2 + Last candle closes at low | **SHORT** - Bearish confirmation | Sell Signal | ## Configuration Parameters All parameters are adjustable in TradingView's "Settings/Inputs" tab: | Parameter | Default | Range | Description | |-----------|---------|-------|-------------| | **K-line Lookback Period** | 5 | 3-20 | Number of candlesticks to analyze | | **Doji Threshold** | 0.1 | 0.0-1.0 | Body size / Total range ratio for doji identification | | **Doji Count Limit** | 3 | 1-10 | Number of dojis that triggers skip signal | | **Close at High Proximity** | 0.9 | 0.5-1.0 | Required proximity to highest price (0.9 = 90%) | | **Close at Low Proximity** | 0.9 | 0.5-1.0 | Required proximity to lowest price (0.9 = 90%) | ### Parameter Tuning Guide #### Proximity Thresholds (Close at High/Low) - **0.95 or higher**: Stricter - only very strong candles qualify - **0.90 (default)**: Balanced - good for most market conditions - **0.80 or lower**: Looser - catches more patterns, higher false signals #### Doji Threshold - **0.05-0.10**: Strict doji identification - **0.10-0.15**: Standard doji detection - **0.15+**: Includes near-doji patterns #### Lookback Period - **3-5 bars**: Fast, sensitive to recent patterns - **5-10 bars**: Balanced approach - **10-20 bars**: Slower, filters out noise ## Visual Indicators ### Chart Markers - **Green Up Arrow** ▲: Long entry signal triggered - **Red Down Arrow** ▼: Short entry signal triggered - **Gray X**: Skip signal (too many dojis detected) ### Statistics Table Located at top-right corner, displays real-time pattern counts: - **Close at High**: Count of candles closing near the high - **Close at Low**: Count of candles closing near the low - **Doji**: Count of doji/near-doji patterns ### Signal Labels - Green label: "✓ Long condition met" - below entry bar - Red label: "✓ Short condition met" - above entry bar - Gray label: "⊠ Too many dojis, skip" - trade skipped ## Risk Management ### Exit Strategy The strategy includes built-in exit rules based on ATR (Average True Range): - **Stop Loss**: ATR × 2 - **Take Profit**: ATR × 3 Example: If ATR is $10, stop loss is at -$20 and take profit is at +$30 ### Position Sizing Default: 100% of equity per trade (adjustable in strategy properties) **Recommendation**: Reduce to 10-25% of equity for safer capital allocation ## How to Use ### 1. Copy the Script 1. Open TradingView 2. Go to Pine Script Editor 3. Create a new indicator 4. Copy the entire `candle_pattern_strategy.pine` content 5. Click "Add to Chart" ### 2. Apply to Chart - Select your preferred timeframe (1m, 5m, 15m, 1h, 4h, 1d) - Choose a trading symbol (stocks, forex, crypto, etc.) - The strategy will generate signals on all historical bars and in real-time ### 3. Configure Parameters 1. Right-click the strategy on chart → "Settings" 2. Adjust parameters in the "Inputs" tab 3. Strategy will recalculate automatically 4. Backtest results appear in the Strategy Tester panel ### 4. Backtesting 1. Click "Strategy Tester" (bottom panel) 2. Set date range for historical testing 3. Review performance metrics: - Win rate - Profit factor - Drawdown - Total returns ## Key Features ✅ **Execution Model Compliant** - Follows official Pine Script V6 standards ✅ **Global Scope** - All historical references in global scope for consistency ✅ **Adjustable Sensitivity** - Fine-tune all pattern detection thresholds ✅ **Real-time Updates** - Works on both historical and real-time bars ✅ **Visual Feedback** - Clear signals with labels and statistics table ✅ **Risk Management** - Built-in ATR-based stop loss and take profit ✅ **No Repainting** - Signals remain consistent after bar closes ## Important Notes ### Before Trading Live 1. **Backtest thoroughly**: Test on at least 6-12 months of historical data 2. **Paper trading first**: Practice with simulated trades 3. **Optimize parameters**: Find the best settings for your trading instrument 4. **Manage risk**: Never risk more than 1-2% per trade 5. **Monitor performance**: Review trades regularly and adjust as needed ### Market Conditions The strategy works best in: - Trending markets with clear directional bias - Range-bound markets with defined support/resistance - Markets with moderate volatility The strategy may underperform in: - Highly choppy/noisy markets (many false signals) - Markets with gaps or overnight gaps - Low liquidity periods ### Limitations - Works on chart timeframes only (not intrabar analysis) - Requires at least 5 bars of history (configurable) - Fixed exit rules may not suit all trading styles - No trend filtering (will trade both directions) ## Technical Details ### Historical Buffer Management The strategy declares maximum bars back to ensure enough historical data: ```pine max_bars_back(close, 20) max_bars_back(open, 20) max_bars_back(high, 20) max_bars_back(low, 20) ``` This prevents runtime errors when accessing historical candlestick data. ### Pattern Detection Algorithm ``` For each bar in lookback period: 1. Calculate (high - close) / (high - low) → close_to_high_ratio 2. If close_to_high_ratio ≤ (1 - threshold) → count as "Close at High" 3. Calculate (close - low) / (high - low) → close_to_low_ratio 4. If close_to_low_ratio ≤ (1 - threshold) → count as "Close at Low" 5. Calculate abs(close - open) / (high - low) → body_ratio 6. If body_ratio ≤ doji_threshold → count as "Doji" Signal Generation: 7. If doji_count ≥ cross_count_limit → SKIP_SIGNAL 8. If close_at_high_count ≥ 2 AND last_close_at_high → LONG_SIGNAL 9. If close_at_low_count ≥ 2 AND last_close_at_low → SHORT_SIGNAL ``` ## Example Scenarios ### Scenario 1: Bullish Signal ``` Last 5 bars pattern: Bar 1: Closes at high (95%) ✓ Bar 2: Closes at high (92%) ✓ Bar 3: Closes at mid (50%) Bar 4: Closes at low (10%) Bar 5: Closes at high (96%) ✓ (last bar) Result: - Close at high count: 3 (≥ 2) ✓ - Last closes at high: ✓ - Doji count: 0 (< 3) ✓ → LONG SIGNAL ✓ ``` ### Scenario 2: Skip Signal ``` Last 5 bars pattern: Bar 1: Doji pattern ✓ Bar 2: Doji pattern ✓ Bar 3: Closes at mid Bar 4: Doji pattern ✓ Bar 5: Closes at high Result: - Doji count: 3 (≥ 3) → SKIP SIGNAL - Market too chaotic ``` ## Performance Optimization ### Tips for Better Results 1. **Use Higher Timeframes**: 15m or higher reduces false signals 2. **Combine with Indicators**: Add volume or trend filters 3. **Seasonal Adjustment**: Different parameters for different seasons 4. **Instrument Selection**: Test on liquid, high-volume instruments 5. **Regular Rebalancing**: Adjust parameters quarterly based on performance ## Troubleshooting ### No Signals Generated - Check if lookback period is too large - Verify proximity thresholds aren't too strict (try 0.85 instead of 0.95) - Ensure doji limit allows for trading (try 4-5 instead of 3) ### Too Many False Signals - Increase proximity thresholds to 0.95+ - Reduce lookback period to 3-4 bars - Increase doji limit to 3-4 - Test on higher timeframes ### Strategy Tester Shows Losses - Review individual trades to identify patterns - Adjust stop loss and take profit ratios - Change lookback period and thresholds - Test on different market conditions ## References - (www.tradingview.com) - (www.tradingview.com) - (www.investopedia.com) - (www.investopedia.com) ## Disclaimer **This strategy is provided for educational and research purposes only.** - Not financial advice - Past performance does not guarantee future results - Always conduct thorough backtesting before live trading - Trading involves significant risk of loss - Use proper risk management and position sizing ## License Created: December 15, 2025 Version: 1.0 --- **For updates and modifications, refer to the accompanying documentation files.**

Bollinger Bands Forecast with Signals (Zeiierman)█ Overview Bollinger Bands Forecast with Signals (Zeiierman) extends classic Bollinger Bands into a forward-looking framework. Instead of only showing where volatility has been, it projects where the basis (midline) and band width are likely to drift next, based on recent trend and volatility behavior. The projection is built from the measured slopes of the Bollinger basis, the standard deviation (or ATR, depending on the mode), and a volatility “breathing” component. On top of that, the script includes an optional projected price path that can be blended with a deterministic random walk, plus rejection signals to highlight failed band breaks. █ How It Works ⚪ Bollinger Core The script first computes standard Bollinger Bands using the selected Source, Length, and Multiplier: Basis = SMA(Source, Length) Band width = Multiplier × StDev(Source, Length) Upper/Lower = Basis ± Width This remains the “live” (non-forecast) structure on the chart. ⚪ Trend & Volatility Slope Estimation To project forward, the indicator measures directional drift and volatility drift using linear regression differences: Basis slope from the Bollinger basis StDev slope from the Bollinger deviation ATR slope for ATR-based projection mode These slopes drive the forecast bands forward, reflecting the market’s recent directional and volatility regime. ⚪ Projection Engine (Forecast Bands) At the last bar, the indicator draws projected basis, upper, and lower lines out to Forecast Bars. The projected basis can be: Trend (straight linear projection) Curved (ease-in/out transition toward projected endpoints) Smoothed (extra smoothing on projected basis/width) ⚪ Price Path Projection + Optional Random Walk In addition to projecting the bands, the script can draw a price forecast path made of a small number of zigzag swings. Each swing targets a point offset from the projected basis by a multiple of the projected half-width (“width units”). Decay gradually reduces swing size as the forecast deepens. The Optional Random Walk Blend adds a deterministic drift component to the zigzag path. It’s not true randomness; it’s a stable pseudo-random sequence, so the drawing doesn’t jump around on refresh, while still adding “natural” variation. ⚪ Rejection Signals Signals are based on failed attempts to break a band: Bear Signal (Down): price tries to push above the upper band, then falls back inside, while still closing above the basis. Bull Signal (Up): price tries to push below the lower band, then returns back inside, while still closing below the basis. █ How to Use ⚪ Forward Support/Resistance Corridors Treat the projected upper/lower bands as a future volatility envelope, not a guarantee: The upper projection ≈ is likely a resistance level if the regime persists The lower projection ≈ is likely a support level if the regime persists Best used for trade planning, targets, and “where price could travel” under similar conditions. ⚪ Regime Read: Trend + Volatility The projection shape is informative: Rising basis + expanding width → trend with increasing volatility (needs wider stops / more caution) Flat basis + compressing width → contraction regime (often precedes expansion) ⚪ Signals for Mean-Reversion / Failed Breakouts The rejection markers are useful for fade-style setups: A Down signal near/after upper-band failure can imply rotation back toward the basis. An Up signal near/after lower-band failure can imply snap-back toward the basis. With MA filtering enabled, signals are constrained to align with the broader bias, helping reduce chop-driven noise. █ Related Publications Donchian Predictive Channel (Zeiierman) █ Settings ⚪ Bollinger Band Controls the live Bollinger Bands on the chart. Source – Price used for calculations. Length – Lookback period; higher = smoother, lower = more reactive. Multiplier – Bandwidth; higher = wider bands, lower = tighter bands. ⚪ Forecast Controls the forward projection of the Bollinger Bands. Forecast Bars – How far into the future the bands are projected. Trend Length – Lookback used to estimate trend and volatility slopes. Forecast Band Mode – Defines projection behavior (linear, curved, breathing, ATR-based, or smoothed). ⚪ Price Forecast Controls the projected price path inside the bands. ZigZag Swings – Number of projected oscillations. Amplitude – Distance from basis, measured in bandwidth units. Decay – Shrinks swings further into the forecast. ⚪ Random-Walk Adds controlled randomness to the price path. Enable – Toggle random-walk influence. Blend – Strength of randomness vs. zigzag. Step Size – Size of random steps (band-width units). Decay – Reduces randomness as the forecast deepens. Seed – Changes the (stable) random sequence. ⚪ Signals Controls rejection/mean-reversion signals. Show Signals – Enable/disable signal markers.

Rainbow MA Width█ OVERVIEW Rainbow MA Width is a companion indicator for Rainbow MA Cloud. It displays ribbon width as a normalized Z-Score, allowing traders to visualize trend momentum expansion and contraction relative to recent history. █ CONCEPTS Z-Score Normalization: Rather than displaying raw width values (which vary by asset and timeframe), this indicator normalizes the ribbon width using Z-Score calculation: Z-Score = (Current Width - Average Width) / Standard Deviation Z-Score Interpretation: • 0 = Average width (mean) • +1 to +2 = Expanding (above average, strong trend) • -1 to -2 = Contracting (below average, weakening trend) • Beyond ±2 = Extreme (statistical outlier, potential reversal) Width Calculation Modes: • Outer — Distance between fastest and slowest MA: |MA1 - MA8| • Average Gap — Mean of all adjacent MA gaps • Total Gap — Sum of all adjacent MA gaps █ FEATURES 1 — Width Mode Selection Three methods to calculate ribbon width. "Outer" recommended for aligned trends. 2 — Z-Score Period Configurable lookback for mean and standard deviation. Default 20 bars; increase for smoother, less reactive readings. 3 — Zone Fill Coloring Cyan fill when expanding (Z > 0). Orange fill when contracting (Z < 0). Yellow fill for extreme values (|Z| > 2) as warning. 4 — Alignment Background Green background during bullish alignment. Red background during bearish alignment. Synced with Rainbow MA Cloud for consistency. 5 — Reference Lines Horizontal lines at 0 (mean), ±1σ, and ±2σ levels. Provides clear visual boundaries for interpretation. 6 — Raw Width Display Optional secondary line showing original width percentage. Useful for comparing normalized vs absolute values. █ HOW TO USE Trend Confirmation: • Z-Score rising above 0 confirms trend acceleration • Z-Score staying above +1 indicates sustained strong momentum • Use alongside alignment background for confluence Reversal Warning: • Z-Score exceeding +2 suggests overextension (yellow warning zone) • Z-Score dropping below -2 indicates extreme contraction • Extreme readings often precede trend reversals or consolidation Entry Timing: • Enter trends when Z-Score crosses above 0 (expansion beginning) • Avoid entries when Z-Score is at extreme highs (potential exhaustion) • Consider exits when Z-Score peaks and begins declining █ LIMITATIONS • Z-Score is relative to lookback period; different periods give different readings • Extreme zones (±2) are statistical guides, not guarantees • Best used in conjunction with Rainbow MA Cloud for full context █ ALERTS Four built-in alert conditions: • Z-Score crosses above/below zero • Z-Score enters extreme high/low zones (±2)

Rainbow MA Cloud█ OVERVIEW Rainbow MA Cloud displays 8 Moving Averages as a gradient-colored cloud to visualize trend direction and strength. The "rainbow" effect shows momentum through ribbon width, while perfect MA alignment signals strong trending conditions. █ CONCEPTS The indicator uses 8 MAs with Fibonacci-based default lengths (8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144, 233) to create a layered view of price momentum across multiple timeframes. Perfect Alignment Detection: • Bullish Alignment — All 8 MAs in ascending order (MA1 > MA2 > ... > MA8) Indicates strong uptrend with momentum across all timeframes • Bearish Alignment — All 8 MAs in descending order (MA1 < MA2 < ... < MA8) Indicates strong downtrend with aligned selling pressure • Mixed — MAs are not in sequential order, suggesting consolidation or transition Ribbon Width: • Widening ribbon = Trend acceleration, increasing momentum • Narrowing ribbon = Trend weakening, potential reversal or consolidation █ FEATURES 1 — MA Configuration Choose from EMA, SMA, WMA, VWMA, or HMA calculation methods. All 8 MA lengths are fully customizable. 2 — Color Themes Five built-in themes: Rainbow, Warm, Cool, Neon, Mono. Creates visually distinct gradient from fast to slow MAs. 3 — Alignment Background Green background during bullish alignment. Red background during bearish alignment. Helps quickly identify strong trending periods. 4 — Trend Signals Labels appear when perfect alignment forms. "BULL ALIGN" for bullish, "BEAR ALIGN" for bearish. 5 — Information Panel Real-time display of alignment status, trend strength percentage, ribbon width, price position relative to cloud, and MA values. █ HOW TO USE Entry Signals: • Look for alignment signals (BULL/BEAR ALIGN) as trend confirmation • Enter long when bullish alignment forms with price above cloud • Enter short when bearish alignment forms with price below cloud Trend Following: • Stay in position while alignment background color persists • Widening ribbon confirms trend continuation • Exit or reduce when alignment breaks (background disappears) Support/Resistance: • Cloud edges act as dynamic support (bullish) or resistance (bearish) • Price entering cloud suggests consolidation or potential reversal █ LIMITATIONS • Alignment signals are lagging by nature (based on MA crossovers) • Works best on trending markets; generates mixed signals during ranging periods • Ribbon width measurement uses outer MAs only (MA1 vs MA8) █ COMPANION INDICATOR Use "Rainbow MA Width" indicator for detailed Z-Score analysis of ribbon expansion/contraction patterns.

Candle Microstructure ClassifierCandle Microstructure Classifier Public Description The Candle Microstructure Classifier is a visual study designed to highlight meaningful single-candle behaviors based purely on price geometry. It classifies candles according to body size and wick structure, helping traders visually identify moments of aggression, commitment, failed pushes, and rejection directly on the price chart. This script is a study only. It does not generate trade signals, entries, exits, or forecasts. Its purpose is to provide structural context that can be combined with other tools such as trend, volume, or volatility analysis. Quantitative Description Each candle is decomposed into its geometric components relative to its total range (high − low). All classifications are based on normalized fractions to remain scale‑independent across instruments and timeframes. Definitions: 1. Candle Range (R): R = High − Low 2. Body Size (B): B = |Close − Open| Body Fraction = B / R 3. Upper Wick (UW): UW = High − max(Open, Close) Upper Wick Fraction = UW / R 4. Lower Wick (LW): LW = min(Open, Close) − Low Lower Wick Fraction = LW / R Candle Classifications: • Commitment Candle: Body Fraction ≥ Large Body Threshold Upper Wick Fraction ≤ Tiny Wick Threshold Lower Wick Fraction ≤ Tiny Wick Threshold Interpretation: Strong directional acceptance with minimal intrabar rejection. • Marubozu (Aggression): Body Fraction ≥ Large Body Threshold One wick effectively absent (near zero) Interpretation: Pure directional aggression with no meaningful counter‑pressure. • Trend Attempt Failure: Body Fraction ≥ Large Body Threshold One wick large, opposite wick small Interpretation: Strong push followed by immediate rejection on one side. • Rejection Candle: Body Fraction ≤ Small Body Threshold Upper Wick Fraction ≥ Large Wick Threshold Lower Wick Fraction ≥ Large Wick Threshold Interpretation: Two‑sided rejection indicating price discovery or balance. • Pin Rejection (optional): Body Fraction ≤ Small Body Threshold Only one wick large Interpretation: One‑sided rejection often occurring near support or resistance. Notes and Context This classifier intentionally avoids pattern names tied to prediction. Each classification describes observed auction behavior inside a single bar, not an expectation of future movement.

A commitment candle occurring simultaneously with a volume spike may indicate institutional participation and acceptance at that price level. 2. A rejection candle forming during elevated volatility (ATR expansion) may signal failed price discovery and potential mean reversion zones.

Future Ichimoku Cloud - HorizonIchimoku Horizon is an advanced Ichimoku indicator that projects future cloud formations and component lines, giving traders unprecedented visibility into potential support/resistance zones before they form. 1. Future Ichimoku Projections Project Ichimoku components forward in time using simulated price evolution based on rolling Tenkan/Kijun windows Manual forecast periods up to 125 bars (all 4 components) or 500 bars (cloud only) Smart limit management automatically adjusts to TradingView's drawing object limits while maximizing visible projections 2. Preset & Custom Ichimoku Configurations Choose from multiple common Ichimoku presets or fully customize your own 3. Multi-Timeframe Display & Projections Display Ichimoku from higher/lower timeframes directly on your current timeframe chart Automatic scaling adjusts Ichimoku periods correctly across timeframes Intelligent handling of 24/7 markets (crypto/forex) vs traditional session-based markets Built-in detection of problematic timeframe combinations with optional MTF cloud fetching for accuracy Automatic notifications when future projections are unavailable due to MTF constraints 4. Tenkan & Kijun Range Windows Visual range windows that display the exact high/low range used for Tenkan and Kijun calculations Optional High/Low markers placed at the exact bars they occur Optional countdown labels show how many bars remain until the current High/Low expires from the rolling window Range windows scale up and down dynamically to match display timeframe 5. Comprehensive Alert Suite Built-in alerts for all major Ichimoku events: TK crosses, E2E entires, Kumo breakouts, etc. All alerts are cloud-aware and displacement-correct. How It Works The indicator uses the traditional Donchian channel method to calculate Ichimoku components, then extends this logic forward by simulating future price action within the calculation windows (no new highs or lows). This creates a forward-looking projection of where support and resistance zones will form. The range display feature helps traders understand why the lines are where they are by showing the exact high/low points and countdown timers for when these points will expire from the calculation. Who This Indicator Is For: Ichimoku traders who want future-aware context Multi-timeframe analysts seeking correctly aligned clouds Traders who want to understand Tenkan/Kijun mechanics Users who need precision without manual recalculation Notes: Maximum 500 drawing objects limit managed automatically Due to Pinescript/TradingView limitations, future Tenkan/Kijun line width is only modifiable in the source code.

Liquidity Vacuum DetectorThis indicator identifies liquidity vacuum zones—price areas where the market previously moved quickly with little resistance. These zones often allow price to travel faster once re-entered, which is favorable for intraday options trading. Vacuum zones are created during strong, clean impulse moves (large range, low overlap, thin participation). When price later enters a stored vacuum zone with volume expansion, the indicator prints a directional triangle to highlight a potential high-speed move. Optional filters include VWAP directional bias and regular trading hours (RTH). Designed as a trade filter and acceleration tool, not a predictive signal. Best used in combination with key levels (PMH/PML, ORH/ORL, VWAP) and volume confirmation.

Hurst ALMA Tuned Chandelier Exit Hurst × ALMA Tuned Chandelier Exit (HurstALMA-CE) Public Description Hurst × ALMA Tuned Chandelier Exit (HurstALMA-CE) is an adaptive trend‑following stop and exit indicator. It combines a smoothed price input (ALMA), a regime detector based on the Hurst exponent, and a dynamically tuned Chandelier Exit to automatically adjust its behavior between choppy and trending market conditions. Instead of using a single fixed Chandelier configuration, the indicator continuously measures whether price action is behaving more like noise or a persistent trend. In choppy markets, it becomes more conservative by using shorter lookbacks and wider ATR multiples to reduce whipsaws. In trending markets, it tightens the stop and extends the lookback to better lock in gains while staying aligned with the trend. The result is a regime‑aware trailing exit that adapts in real time, helping traders stay in strong trends longer while avoiding over‑sensitivity during sideways price action. HurstALMA‑CE can be used as a visual trailing stop, a trend confirmation overlay, or as an exit engine inside discretionary or systematic strategies. Quantitative Description 1. Input Series Price is optionally pre‑filtered using an Arnaud Legoux Moving Average (ALMA), defined by length, offset, and sigma parameters. This smoothed series is used as the input to the Hurst estimator to reduce high‑frequency noise. 2. Hurst Exponent Proxy The indicator estimates the Hurst exponent using a variance‑scaling method. For fixed lags (8, 16, 32, 64), price differences are computed and their variances are measured over a rolling lookback window. A log‑log regression of variance versus lag produces a slope, which is mapped to a Hurst estimate via: H ≈ 0.5 × slope. The raw estimate is smoothed using an EMA to improve stability. 3. Regime Weight Mapping The smoothed Hurst value is linearly mapped into a normalized weight w ∈ using user‑defined low‑H (choppy) and high‑H (trending) thresholds. Values below the low threshold map to w = 0, values above the high threshold map to w = 1. 4. Adaptive Chandelier Parameters The Chandelier Exit length and ATR multiplier are interpolated between two parameter sets: • Chop regime (shorter length, wider multiplier) • Trend regime (longer length, tighter multiplier) Interpolation is performed as: CE_len = CE_len_chop + w × (CE_len_trend − CE_len_chop) CE_mult = CE_mult_chop + w × (CE_mult_trend − CE_mult_chop) Before sufficient data is available for the Hurst calculation, fallback Chandelier parameters are used. 5. Output The final output consists of long and short Chandelier Exit levels computed using the dynamically tuned parameters. Optional status values expose the current Hurst estimate, regime weight, and active Chandelier settings for diagnostics and strategy development.
