Gann Square of 9Gann's Square's are some of the best known tools created by Gann. His most well known square was his Square of 9.
The reason for this was because of the symmetry 9 had with itself. Gann was able to balance both price and time with this symmetry.
- 9 is the last single-digit and largest number
- You can add anything to 9 and it will give you a natural number
- (9 + 3 = 12); 1 + 2 = 3... (9 + 9 = 18); 1 + 8 = 9... etc.
- Multiplying any number by 9 will have the natural number be 9
- (9 * 6 = 54); 5 + 4 = 9... (9 * 3 = 27); 2 + 7 = 9... etc.
For these reason, Gann claimed that 9 has everything within itself.
Here I have created an on-chart square of 9 including the cardinal and ordinal cross points colored. In the settings you are able to customize the starting value of the table as well as the period movement. In most cases, 81 is not high enough to be useful in charting cases, so I'd recommend printing out your own Gann Square of 9 that goes as high as you need it to go.
THIS IS NOT TRADING ADVICE ; please use your own technical analysis before making any decisions based off of public indicators. Learn more about Gann's Squares before attempting to use them as this script was not meant to give you answers, only the table.
Candlestick Analysis
[CP]Pivot Boss Candlestick Scanner - No Repainting This indicator is based on the high probability candlestick patterns described in the ’Secrets of a Pivot Boss’ book.
The indicator does not suffer from repainting.
I have kept this indicator open source, so that you can take this indicator and design a complete trading system around it.
Although the patterns have some statistical edge in the markets, blindly using them as Buy/Sell Indicators will certainly result in a heavy loss.
I like some of these setups more than others, and I have listed them in the order of my likeness.
The first one I like the most, the last one, I like the least.
The patterns are universal and work well in both intraday, daily and even larger timeframes.
Signals in the example charts are manually marked by,
Hammer - profitable short signal
Rocket - profitable long signal
X - unprofitable long or short signal
GENERAL USER INPUTS:
These settings exist as the indicator uses ‘Labels’ to mark the patterns and Pine Script limits a maximum of 500 labels on a chart.
If you want to go back in the past and check how the indicator was doing, set the Start and End dates both and check the ’Use the date range above to mark the Candlestick Setups?’ option.
EXTREME REVERSAL SETUP:
This is by far my favorite setup in the lot. Classic Mean Reversion setup.
The logic, as explained in the book, goes like this,
1. The first bar of the pattern is about two times larger than the average size of the candles in the lookback period.
2. The body of the first bar of the pattern should encompass more than 50 percent of the bar’s total range, but usually not more than 85 percent.
3. The second bar of the pattern opposes the first.
The setup works extremely well in high beta stocks like Vedanta VEDL.
Feel free to play with the settings in order to better align this pattern with your favorite stock.
Check out the examples below,
No indicator is perfect, failed patterns are marked with an X.
OUTSIDE REVERSAL SETUP:
My second favorite setup, it is quite good at catching intraday trends.
Here’s the logic,
1. The engulfing bar of a bullish outside reversal setup has a low that is below the prior bar’s low and a close that is above the prior bar’s high. Reverse the conditions for bearish outside reversal.
2. The engulfing bar is usually 5 to 25 percent larger than the size of the average bar in the lookback period.
Settings for this pattern simply reflect these conditions. Feel free to modify them as you wish.
The pattern is pretty powerful and will sometimes help you catch literally all the highs and lows of the market, as shown in the examples of Vedanta VEDL and RELIANCE stocks below.
As usual, this pattern is not PERFECT either.
DOJI REVERSAL SETUP:
Doji candles signify market indecision and this pattern tries to profit off these market conditions.
Logic:
1. The open and close price of the doji should fall within 10 percent of each other, as measured by the total range of the candlestick.
2. For a bullish doji, the high of the doji candlestick should be below the ten-period simple moving average. Vice-versa for bearish.
3. For a bullish doji setup, one of the two bars following the doji must close above the high of the doji. Vice-versa for bearish.
Feel free to modify the settings and optimize according to the stock you are trading.
Don't optimize too much :)
This pattern works brilliantly well on larger intraday timeframes, like 15m/30m/60m.
This pattern also has a higher propensity to give false indications than the two described above.
Doji reversal typically helps to catch larger trend reversals. Check out the examples below from RELIANCE and NIFTY charts,
Note that the RELIANCE chart below is the same as shown for the Outside Reversal Setup above, notice the confluence of Outside
Reversal and Doji Reversal on the 31st August.
Confluence of patterns usually increases the probability of success.
RELIANCE 15m Chart - Pattern can catch nice trends on higher timeframes
NIFTY 15m Chart
WICK REVERSAL SETUP:
This pattern tries to capture candlesticks with large wick sizes, as they often indicate trend reversal when coupled with significant support and resistance levels.
Logic:
1. The body is used to determine the size of the reversal wick. A wick that is between 2.5 to 3.5 times larger than the size of the body is ideal.
2. For a bullish reversal wick to exist, the close of the bar should fall within the top 35 percent of the overall range of the candle.
3. For a bearish reversal wick to exist, the close of the bar should fall within the bottom 35 percent of the overall range of the candle.
This pattern must always be coupled with important support resistance levels, else there will be a lot of false signals.
The chart below is the same NIFTY chart as above with the Wick Reversal candles marked as well.
You can see that there are a lot of false signals, but the price also indicates ’pausing’ at important levels by printing a wick reversal setup.
You can use this information to your advantage when riding a trend.
FINAL WORDS:
Settings for various patterns simply reflect the logic described.
You will probably need to tweak and optimize the pattern settings for the stock that you are trading.
Higher Beta/Higher Volatility stocks are a great choice for these patterns.
Using these patterns at critical support and resistance levels will result in dramatically high accuracy.
Be creative and try to develop a proper system around this indicator, with rules for position sizing, stop loss etc.
You do not have to trade all the patterns. Even trading just one pattern with a proper system is good enough.
DO NOT USE THIS INDICATOR AS A BUY/SELL SYSTEM, YOU WILL LOSE MONEY.
Feel free to drop any feedback in the comments section below, or if you have any unique candlestick patterns that you would like me to code.
counting（kojiro koshi's idea)This is an indicator that expresses the strength of a candlestick in numbers.
The criteria are as follows
Candlestick is bullish:+1,bearish:-1,（If the value is more than twice the ATR, the score is 2 and -2, respectively.)
Close is higher than the previous value: +1, lower: -1
High is higher than the previous value: +1, lower: -1
Low is higher than the previous value: +1, lower: -1
gap up: +1, gap down: -1
This Display only if the total number of points is greater or less than 4.

JS Bull/Bear PowerI created this Indicator for all chart lovers.
This Indicator measures the wick parts of candles and sum it up. Wick part of candle is a sign of strength that's why it measures the 60 bars of candles wick. then sum it up and converted it in percentage. The output is indicated in the last 10 candles. that's how simple this indicator is but very useful to analyze the strength of every candles.
The upper numbers is the bear power.
The lower numbers is the bull power.
Happy Trading

Ehlers Instantaneous Phase Dominant Cycle [CC]The Instantaneous Phase Dominant Cycle was created by John Ehlers (Stocks & Commodities V. 18:3 (16-27)) and this is one of many similar indicators that I will be publishing from Ehlers in the next few months that calculate the current dominant cycle period. The cycle period can be used in multiple ways but generally this means that if the stock is currently at a low then the current cycle period will tell you when the next lowest low will get hit or vice versa. This is also useful for using this cycle period as an input for other indicators to provide a very good adaptive length. Let me know how you wind up using these indicators in your daily trading. I have included the same buy and sell signals from my recent Hilbert Transform and so buy when the line turns green and sell when it turns red.
Let me know if there are any other indicators you would like to see me publish!
Sagar sir - N Continuous candle green with +ve % changeThis script will plot labels based on N number of continuous green candle with +ve % change.
Trigrams based on Candle PatternThis script matches a Trigram for the current candle from its pattern Bullish/Bearish: Marubozu, Hammer, Inverted Hammer, Spinning Top.
The source for Trigram to candlestick pattern can be found online. I'm missing the reputation to add the link here.
Heaven = Bearish Marubozu
Earth = Bullish Marubozu
Thunder = Bearish Spinning Top
Water = Bullish Inverted Hammer
Mountain = Bullish Hammer
Wind = Bullish Spinning Top
Flame = Bearish Hammer
Lake = Bearish Inverted Hammer
The idea is simple. It takes the current candles pattern to match the Trigram.
Inspired by the Trigram Script from ByzantineSC
Anyways, not sure what use it is yet, but if there is anyone else out there interested in I Ching, Yin/Yang theory and trading, this is for you.
Zigzag Candles MAWe have the candles here: Zigzag-Candles
Lets create moving average!!
Just simple moving average at the moment. Since, items are in array. Not so easy to use standard functions of pine. Hence, will take that for future enhancements.
ATR and Supertrend next!!
Zigzag CandlesCan't deny that I am obsessed with zigzags. Been doing some crazy experiments with it and have many more in pipeline. I believe zigzag can be used to derive better trend following methods. Here is an attempt to visualize zigzag as candlesticks. Next steps probably to derive moving average, atr (although there was an attempt of AZR made earlier) and probably supertrend too ;)
Input parameters include ZigzagLength (to calculate zigzag) and CandleSize (number of zigzag pivots in each candle)
CandleSize can be 3 or more. Every time we collect pivots which are equal to CandleSize, we derive one candle. And when we derive a candle, we remove all old pivots except the last one. Becauase, the last pivot acts as open to the next bar and is required.
Body of the candle tells the start and end zigzag pivot in the range. And Wicks signify highest and lowest pivots in the range. High and Low wicks are placed at the pivot where high and lows are formed. Hence, you can see them at different positions each time.
Thanks to @RicardoSantos for suggesting boxes for candles - while I was trying to achieve this with plotbar
LebahFX AccDist_CandlesLebahFX Indicator that showing Accumulation and Distribution Signal in HTF Candlestick
Price ActionFirst, you have to know price action, RTM price action Handbook could help you
this indicator shows you base and momentum candles
base candles could be zones of trade that show you fighting of bulls and bears, and momentum candles could show the power of those zones.
Base candles are white in the chart, and you can place your order at the good zone.
Rally candles and drop candles are momentum candles, and bold rally and bold drop show that it is more powerful than its before candle.
Zigzag compression is one way that shows the compression in trend.
it looks like the Wedges pattern at classic technical that shows pending orders are closed, so the target zone could be powerful to reverse the trend.
Black background of candle means that candle doesn't reach its before candle and so it is poor candle, I named it domination.
It is better to do not trade at poor candles.
At the end, I find Price action the best way to trade, and it makes you free of other indicator, even volume indicator.
This indicator is good for those who use price action strategy to trade and those who want to learn the price action.
It could be so helpful and reliable way to find the zones, and place buy or sell order and the target, specially for scalping.
Engulfing Candle Rejection IndicatorThis indicator allows you to filter noisy chart, with engulfing candles which have been rejected from current trend lines. Trend lines by default are 21 MA (fast) and 10 MA (slow one). If fast moving average is greater than slower one, automatically indicator would represent that like uptrend, and if opposite then like a downtrend.
Consider to work only on higher time frames like 1H and higher, so you really can find only best entries.
Have fun, best wishes!
Broken Fractal : Someone's broken dream is your profit!Idea
The idea is simple : when market turns around, it traps a bunch of traders off guard. We trade with them, in the same direction of their exit!
Method
We let the market first create a fractal
We then let the market create an opposite fractal
We then let the market break the first fractal it created, thereby trapping lots of trades in the process
We then patiently wait till the market gives these trapped traders a chance to exit - and we trade in the same direction
How to use?
Green boxes are for long entry, red boxes are for short.
Whenever a box appears, that's the risk criteria - setup limit orders and trade along!
Works on all timeframes
If you like this script, please leave a note on how you are using it.
I personally use it with Higher Timeframe bias.
PS1 : some traders call this Break of market structure, some call it Breaker, I just call it "Broken Fractal"
PS2 : Break of a broken fractal is also very potent. Watch out for those!
Trading Rule #19This script is based on Trading Rule #19 from Chester Keltner's book How To Make Money On Commodities. It is best applied to candlestick charts with longer time frames and plans with minimal losses (i.e. swing trades). The rule is based on "Key" trend days (this is applied to daily charts in the book).
An initial Key-Up day is established on the third day of 3 consecutive new highs. Subsequent key-up days are determined as follows:
1. The first day following an initial key-up day trades 0.375% above the previous key-up day
2. The second day or any following day trades 0.125% above the previous key-up day
An initial Key-Down day is established on the third day of 3 consecutive new lows. Subsequent key-down days are determined as follows:
1. The first day following an initial key-up day trades 0.375% below the previous key-down day
2. The second day or any following day trades 0.125% below the previous key-down day
Green candles are considered up-trend, red candles are down-trend. Gray candles are undecided - when there is a new high and low in the same time frame, when there is no new high or low in that time frame, or the order price was cleared.
Order prices are represented as a blue line, with some days being "na" when order prices remain unchanged. On key-up days, orders are placed 0.375% below the low of the previous key-up day or the day previous (whichever is lower). Order prices on key-down days are placed 0.375% above the high of the previous key-down day or the day previous (whichever is higher).
The tolerance setting mainly effects the plot point of order price, at a certain point key-trend rules will take priority over order price (meaning if tolerance is high enough, order price will have no effect on determining key-trends).
HammersPlots an arrow above a hammer candle or candle with big lower wick. Yellow signifies a candle with higher than average volume. Blue is a lower than average volume candle. Hammers/Lower Wick candles are best after a drop in price or near bottoms.
Weekly Options Expiry CandleThis script shows weekly expiry candle on daily chart. In weekly expiry, week starts on Friday and end on next Thursday.
How the candle is constructed:
Open= Open price of Friday, if Friday is a holiday, next available open price
High= Highest high price of Friday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday
Low= Lowest low price of Friday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday
Close=Close price of Thursday, if Thursday is a holiday, previously available close price
I am very new to Pine script, so waiting for your comments and review.
Bull and Bear Marubozus Candlestick PatternMarubozus are an interesting candle pattern wherein the close and open of the candle are also the high / low points of the candle. In other words, a candle with no shadows or wicks.
How reliable are they, though? Probably not very reliable on their own. It may also depend on the size of the candle. You would probably want to incorporate this candle pattern with other filters, like RSI, MACD, to filter trade opportunities.
No gaps candlesThis indicator repaints the candles so that every candle's open price is the previous candle's close price. This helps visualize stocks and ETFs that have big gaps, usually between trading days.
You should hide visibility of the ticker for this to be displayed properly.
Three (3)-Bar and Four (4)-Bar Plays StrategyThis strategy analyzes the three and four-bar play which is when price action has a wide igniting bar that has a full body, then one or two narrow bars which have a relatively equal high for long plays and relatively equal low for short plays, then a continuation bar. You should not take plays that will encounter resistance. The stop loss is placed for long plays below the 2nd bar (or 3rd bar for 4-bar play).
This is commonly used on 1m, 2m, 5m, and 10m charts.
Jared Wesley is one of the more notable traders that use this setup. You can edit as an input the start date, end date, igniting bar size, the body percentage of the igniting bar, the relative equality of the 2nd bar (and 3rd bar for 4-bar play) compared to the igniting bar, and profit multiplier.

Jared Wesley is one of the more notable traders that use this setup. There will be a label placed on the chart when a play occurs. You can edit as an input the igniting bar size, the body percentage of the igniting bar, and the relative equality of the 2nd (and 3rd bar for 4 bar play) compared to the igniting bar.
ATH FinderFind the all time high (ATH) and plot a horizontal line extended from the ATH out to the right. Script also produces a label near the current candle indicating location and value of the ATH. If the ATH is higher than the current candle's high the label will be red and pointing up to indicate the ATH is above the current candle. If that current candle's high is the ATH, the label is green and pointing at the current candle's high.
