OPEN-SOURCE SCRIPT
Long Tail Candle by Oliver Velez
This script detects an event created by Oliver Velez, it is a wide-range candle with a small body and a long tail (hammer-type candle), its range is noticeably larger than previous candles, as a rule it can be taken that the body should be maximum of 30% of the total range of the candle with a long tail. The stop goes under the tail and the signal is given when the next candle followed by the long tail candle exceeds its body, do not program this condition so that the alert indicates that a long tail candle was generated and the trader has some Time to visualize the graph and wait for the signal.
