OPEN-SOURCE SCRIPT
Bull/Bear Candle
This script will display a small triangle under the latest two candles to indicate whether that candle is bullish or bearish based on the following definition.
A bullish candle closes in the top portion of the trading range of the candle while a bearish candle closes in the bottom portion of the trading range of the candle.
The cutoff is currently set at 65% (you can adjust it) so the close must be outside or equal to 65% of the trading range to be considered bullish or bearish. If less than 65% the triangle will indicate a neutral candle.
Colours are;
green triangle = bullish candle
red triangle = bearish candle
yellow triangle = neutral candle
I hope this helps those using TraderCobb's cradle strategy.
