Candle EMAAn other way to plot candles containing 4 ema's (length can be set)
- 'high' = max of 4 ema's
- 'low' = min of 4 ema's
- 'open' = ema with longest length, which is not 'high' or 'low'
- 'close' = ema with shortest length, which is not 'high' or 'low'

Reversal Candle Pattern SetUp
An outside reversal candle set up script with buy/sell signals. Looks simple but it's pretty powerful especially if combined with your choice confirming indicator.
The pattern psychology is this one (Frank Ochoa explanation): " The power behind this pattern lies in the psychology behind the traders involved in this setup. If you have ever participated in a breakout at support or resistance only to have the market reverse sharply against you, then you are familiar with the market dynamics of this setup.
[Basically, market participants are testing the waters above resistance or below support to make sure there is no new business to be done at these levels. When no initiative buyers or sellers participate in range extension, responsive participants have all the information they need to reverse price back toward a new area of perceived value.
As you look at a bullish outside reversal pattern, you will notice that the current bar's low is lower than the
prior bar's low. Essentially, the market is testing the waters below recently established lows to see if a downside
follow-through will occur. When no additional selling pressure enters the market, the result is a flood of buying
pressure that causes a springboard effect, thereby shooting price above the prior bar's highs and creating the
beginning of a bullish advance."

Previous Candle High/Low (Clean)✅ Creates one horizontal line for the previous candle’s high (green).
✅ Creates one horizontal line for the previous candle’s low (red).
✅ The lines update on each new candle, always following the most recent previous high/low.
✅ The lines are extended to the right — they don’t stack or clutter the chart.
✅ Works on all timeframes.
Internal Candle Strength [LuxAlgo]The Internal Candle Strength tool allows traders to divide each chart bar into multiple rows of custom size and inspect the strength of the lower timeframes trends located within each row.
This tool effectively helps traders in identifying the power dynamic between bulls and bears within multiple areas within each bar, providing the ability to conduct LTF analysis.
🔶 USAGE
The strength displayed within each row ranges from 0% to 100%, with 0% being the most bearish and 100% being the most bullish.
Traders should be aware of the extreme probabilities located at the higher/lower end of the bars, as this can signal a change in strength and price direction.
Traders can select the lower timeframe to pull the data from or the row size in the scale of the chart. Selecting a lower timeframe will provide more data to evaluate an area's strength.
Do note that only a timeframe lower than the chart timeframe should be selected.
🔹 Row Size
Selecting a smaller row size will increase the number of rows per bar, allowing for a more detailed analysis. A lower value will also generally mean that less data will be considered when calculating the strength of a specific area.
As we can see on the chart above (all BTCUSD 30m), by selecting a different row size, traders can control how many rows are displayed per bar.
🔶 SETTINGS
Timeframe: Lower timeframe used to calculate the candle strength.
Row Size: Size of each row on the chart scale, expressed as a fraction of the candle range.
Daily Candle BoxDaily candle overlay, high, low, and candle color based on open and close
Charts included in script: '3m', '5m', '15m', '1H'
1. Visualizes Key Daily Levels on Lower Timeframes:
The indicator overlays the previous day’s high and low as a box on a lower timeframe chart (e.g., 5-minute). This highlights critical support and resistance levels from the daily timeframe, making it easier to see where price might react without switching to a daily chart.
Use Case: Traders can identify potential reversal or breakout zones on intraday charts, aligning lower timeframe trades with higher timeframe structure.
2. Simplifies Intraday Trading Decisions:
By showing the previous day’s range (high to low) as a box, it provides a clear context for intraday price action. For example, if the price approaches the box’s top (previous day’s high), traders might anticipate resistance or a breakout.
Use Case: Useful for scalpers or day traders who need to quickly assess whether the price is near significant daily levels for entries, exits, or stop-loss placement.
3. Highlights Daily Candle Direction:
The box’s color (green for bullish, red for bearish) indicates whether the previous day’s close was above or below its open. This provides a quick visual cue about the prior day’s market sentiment.
1 Candle SMT Divergence (Nephew_Sam_)📊 1 Candle SMT Divergence Detector

Prev Candle Before Biggest Body (3-7am EST)This indicator automatically identifies and marks, for each trading day, the candle immediately preceding the largest open-to-close movement (in pips) during the key London session window from 3:00am to 7:00am EST (New York time). The largest candle is determined by the absolute difference between its open and close prices, measured in pips. The candle just before this “biggest” move is highlighted with a distinctive pink flag above the bar. This tool is especially useful for traders seeking to analyze pre-breakout price action or to identify key levels and setups that occur right before significant volatility during the early London session.

Candle PercentageThis script calculates the percentage movement of the candle body from open to close and displays it as a label on the chart. The label color changes based on the candle's direction:
Green for bullish (price closes higher than it opened),
Red for bearish (price closes lower than it opened).
The script also allows you to select the label size, with the following options:
Tiny (very small text)
Small (small text)
Normal (default text size)
Large (large text)
Huge (giant text)
By default, the label size is set to Normal.
The percentage is calculated using the formula:
(Body Size / Open Price) * 100
This is helpful for traders who want to quickly assess the magnitude of price movement within each candle and analyze market sentiment based on the size of the body.
Previous Candle Range Split into ThirdsThis script plots two horizontal lines over the previous candle to divide its total range (high to low) into three equal parts. The first line marks 33% of the range from the low, and the second marks 66%. This helps users visually identify whether the previous candle closed in the lower, middle, or upper third of its range, providing context on potential buyer or seller dominance during that session.
Users can customize the color, width, and style (solid, dotted, dashed) of each line, as well as toggle their visibility from the script's input settings.
This indicator is designed as a discretionary analysis tool and does not generate buy or sell signals.

Reposted Original Description by © ka66 Kamal Advani
Visually shows the Body Range (open to close) and Candle Range (high to low).
Semi-transparent overlapping area is the full Candle Range, and fully-opaque smaller area is the Body Range. For aesthetics and visual consistency, Candle Range follows the direction of the Body Range, even though technically it's always positive (high - low).
The different plots for each range type also means the UI will allow deselecting one or the other as needed. For example, some strategies may care only about the Body Range, rather than the entire Candle Range, so the latter can be hidden to reduce noise.
Threshold horizontal lines are plotted, so the trader can modify these high and low levels as needed through the user interface. These need to be configured to match the instrument's price range levels for the timeframe. The defaults are pretty arbitrary for +/- 0.0080 (80 pips in a 4-decimal place forex pair). Where a range reaches or exceeds a threshold, it's visually marked as well with a shape at the Body or Candle peak, to assist with quicker visual potential setup scanning, for example, to anticipate a following reversal or continuation.
Two-Candle Highs & LowsSimple indicator which highlights highs and lows as two-candle reversal patterns:
1. High pattern : A bullish candle followed by a bearish candle, marking the highest price of the two.
2. Low pattern : A bearish candle followed by a bullish candle, marking the lowest price of the two.
It draws horizontal lines at the high/low levels, making it useful for price action analysis such as identifying potential reversals or support/resistance zones.
Electronic Trading Hours Session/CandlesThis indicator visually distinguishes the electronic trading session, spanning from the prior day's close (e.g., 5:00 PM EST) through the overnight period until the next day's opening bell (e.g., 9:30 AM EST).
It can be customized to highlight this period with a shaded zone or colored candles depending on the trader’s preference.
The overnight levels that create the opening range gap often act as critical zones of liquidity.
The indicator provides a clear visual cue of potential price magnets that smart money (institutional traders) may target during the opening bell session to trigger liquidity sweeps.
