Pin Candle DetectionPin candles are a variation of hammer candles that are useful in technical analysis . In particular, when combined with volume profile studies, they can be a powerful set up for long entries or other decision making.
For example, when looking at volume profiles, a long entry would be a fair value area (i.e. 40%) below the close of a pin candle. When combined with a support level , the set up is stronger.
While most scripts look for hammer candles, pin candles are somewhat different in that the length of the wick is significant.
This script and its parameters was built for ES futures 15 min chart in mind.
This script is unique in that it allows for the below parameters to be adjusted to suit other instruments and timeframes:
1. Fib level: Candle must close within a certain retracement level). My preference is 0.55. Some traders like 0.5, while others prefer 0.33
2. Wick length: Pin candles differ from pure hammers in that the length of the wick must be significant. My preference is 7 points on ES (as in $ and not ticks)
Add this script to your alerts to no longer miss these set ups.
Hammercandle
ULTIMATE CANDLESTICK FINDER (Pullback/Rallys/Hammers/Dojis) + MATodays scripts is based on my Pullback And Rally Candles with other meaningful candles such as Hammers and Dojis.
You can choose which Candles to show on the cart and if you want to candles to appear above or below a moving average.
If you follow my work, you may recognise some of these candles which I'm about to show you however these candles are 1) more refined and 2) has moving average filters.
Ive included a D,6H,1H Candle in this script as on different timeframes - each swing low on average has a different amount of bars within the swing low / swing high so the DPB and RD will only work on the Daily
//Pullback candle
This candle is very powerful when used with simple Price Action such as Market Structure//Demand zones and support zones. (((((WORKS BEST IN UPTRENDS AND BOTTOM OF RANGES)))))
Ive included a D,6H,1H Pullback Candle in this script as on different timeframes - each swing low on average has a different amount of bars within the swing low so the DPB will only work on the Daily
//DAILY PULLBACK (Swing Traders)
//4H PULLBACK (Swing Traders)
- this signal will produce more signals due to the swing low filter on the 4H
//1H PULLBACK
- this signal has been refined due to too many candle displaying in weak areas
!!!IF YOU DONT WANT TO USE PULLBACKS DURING DOWNTRENDS THEN USE THE EMA FILTER TO TURN OFF THE PULLBACKS WHEN PRICE IS BELOW THE MOVING AVERAGE!!!
//Rally candle (My personal Favourite) (((((WORKS BEST IN DOWNTRENDS AND TOP OF RANGES)))))
This candle is very powerful when used with simple Price Action such as Market Structure//Supply zones and Resistance zones.
//DAILY RALLY(Swing Traders)
//4H RALLY(Swing Traders)
- this signal will produce more signals due to the swing high filter on the 4H
!!!IF YOU DONT WANT TO USE RALLIES DURING UPTRENDSTHEN USE THE EMA FILTER TO TURN OFF THE RALLIES WHEN PRICE IS ABOVE THE MOVING AVERAGE!!!
//POWERFUL DOJIS (INDECISION)
We look for indecision in key areas to see if momentum is shifting. When combined with Pullbacks or Rallys - this will enhance the odds of a probably area.
//HAMMERS
//MOVING AVERAGES
Short EMA = 50
Long EMA = 200
This filter can be used when the market is trending - look out for rejections off the moving averages
Also you can chance the Short And Long EMA to choose which MA cross you want to use
ALSO ALL THE CANDLES HAVE A ALERT CONDITIONS WHICH YOU CAN ACCESS - THIS WILL ALERT ANY CANDLE YOU CHOOSE

The Strat Numbers & CombosThis indicator is an all-in-one " The Strat " script. This script displays the following:
The Strat candle numbers (1's, 2's, & 3's)
The Strat Combo labels along with trigger line
Pivot Machine Gun ( PMG ) dynamic labels
Hammer & Shooter candle labels
The Strat Candle Numbers label each candle, on any timeframe, either a 1, 2, or 3. 1's are inside bars of the previous candles. 2's take out only one side of the previous candle. And 3's go outside both sides of the previous candle.
The Strat Combo labels (which are made of the 1's, 2's, 3's outlined above) display labels when a Strat Combo occurs. The script displays a label, direction arrow, and trigger line for each Strat Combo. This indicator finds the following Strat Combos:
2-1-2 bullish reversal (BLR)
2-1-2 bullish continuation (BLC)
3-1-2 BLR
3-2-2 BLR
1-2-2 rev strat BLR
2-2 BLR
2-1-2 bearish reversal (BRR)
2-1-2 bearish continuation (BRC)
3-1-2 BRR
3-2-2 BRR
1-2-2 rev strat BRR
2-2 BRR
Double inside candles
The Pivot Machine Gun (PMG) labels any 5 or more consecutive candles that make higher lows or 5 or more consecutive candles that make lower highs. A PMG can continue going in its direction or it can reverse and come back through the range. The logic in this indicator dynamically finds each level in a PMG and draws a line for easy identification.
The script also identifies if the candle type is a Hammer, Inverted Hammer, Shooting Star, or Hanging Man. These candle types are highly likely reversal points in price action.The indicator will plot a shape with a color coded icon identifying the candle. The distance between the shape and the candles can be manually adjusted in the inputs section.
This indicator has many style options . The user can independently toggle on/off the Strat numbers, boxes around the Strat Combos, and Hammer and Shooter shapes. Also all of the colors used in this script can be changed from the inputs section, so a user can easily change colors to match their current color scheme.
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.
Pivot Point CandlesIndicator that highlights Hammer, Inverted Hammer, Engulfing, and Harami candlestick patterns. Great for those looking for a quick way to show the most popular reversal patterns on the charts.
Options will allow you to select to show Hammers, Engulfing or Harami patterns only. You choose the combinations that you want. Great tool to learn and training your eyes to the patterns.
You also have an option to select "Super" versions of the Engulfing and the Harami patterns, the Supers only shows if the pattern engulfs the body and the wick of the smaller candle in the pattern.
The indicator will show Bullish opportunities and Bearish opportunities on the chart for each of the patterns. The inverted hammer will show at the top indicating a Bear move, and the Hammer will show below price indicating a Bullish move.
Use this indicator in conjunction with other Support & Resistance such as the simple moving averages, trend lines, flat lines, or even Bollinger bands. When these patterns show at or around these points on the chart they will indicate a reversal is pending. Wait for the next candle as confirmation that the move will actually take place in the direction indicated and you will have your pivot point on the chart and create a higher probability of success. Leverage Stochastic, RSI, or CCI indicators to help confirm the reversal as well. Look out for resistance above or support below to determine your targets for the reversal.
Happy trading!
Hammers & Stars StrategyOverview
This script trades basic hammer and shooting star candlestick patterns.
It's an extremely simple strategy with minimal filters, and according to my personal manual backtesting and automated trading results, performs best on the Daily chart on certain forex pairs.
It is intended to be traded on the forex markets but theoretically should work on all markets (especially if you optimize the settings).
The script also comes with complete AutoView automation for Oanda.
Make sure you've connected AutoView to TradingView and Oanda, then simply set an alert using the "alert() function calls only" condition and it will automatically execute trades based on whatever settings you've selected (only recommended for experienced traders - use at your own risk!)
If you're not sure how to set up AutoView, search "The Art of Trading AutoView Guide" on YouTube to find my detailed video guide.
Check out my website and YouTube channel for more information, scripts, resources and free Pine Script & trading lessons (link in my profile).
Best of luck with your trading!

Hammer Long strategy with filtered and enforced alertsA Hammer Long strategy is a price pattern in candlestick charting that occurs when a security trades significantly lower than its opening, but rallies within the period to close near opening price. This pattern forms a hammer-shaped candlestick , in which the lower shadow is at least twice the size of the real body. The body of the candlestick represents the difference between the open and closing prices, while the shadow shows the high and low prices for the period.
Key takeaways:
Hammers have a small real body and a long lower shadow.
Hammers occur after a price decline.
The hammer candlestick shows sellers came into the market during the period but by the close the selling had been absorbed and buyers had pushed the price back to near the open.
The close can be above or below the open, although the close should be near the open in order for the real body to remain small.
The lower shadow should be at least two times the height of the real body.
Hammer candlesticks indicate a potential price reversal to the upside.
The strategy enhances standard Hammer pattern accuracy by clearing out market noises and manipulations from the indicator's triggers. Combination of Volume oscillator filter and Directional Movement Index (DMI) components values adjustments allows to detect only strong signals. The strategy is developed to forecast Long positions entries and exits. The strategy supports spot, futures, options and marginal trading exchanges. It works accurately with BTC, USD, USDT, ETH and BNB quote currencies. Best to use with 30 and 60 minutes timeframe charts. The strategy can be and should be configured for each particular asset. You can change filters and risk management settings to receive the most advanced accurate alerts
Advantages of this script:
1. Weak signals and market noises are filtered. This allows to receive only strong and confirmed alerts
2. Strategy can be easily configured in user interface for each particular asset

This indicator highlights hammer candles and shooting star candles based on the below definitions:
Hammer = lower wick >= 2* real body and closes in top half of range
Shooting Star = upper wick >= 2*real body and closes in bottom half of range
hammer = (min(open,close)-low)>= (2*abs(open-close)) and close > (((high-low)/2)+low)
shootingStar = (high-max(open,close))>= (2*abs(open-close)) and close < (((high-low)/2)+low)
Long Tail Candle by Oliver VelezThis 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.
The default configuration is very basic, each trader must adjust to their needs.
- Trend filters can be activated.
- Alerts available.
Thumbs up
Hammer And Shooting star patternThis script gives you signals based on the shooting star and hammer patterns. You can customize how much bigger you want the wick of the candle to be than the body of the candle and how high the candle has to be compared to the x amount of candles back. We have also coded in alerts:)
BH - Candlestick Pattern DetectionThis is a script to help the beginners locate the candle patterns. It has a nice code that can be used in other scripts too. Easy to use with separated functions, simple patterns and complex patterns detections.
I have done some updates at the Candlestick Patterns Identified script by @repo32. Was a good start of my ideia. Tks for sharing repo.
It will be always under constant development but I want to share this first version to know what can be done to get better, improve, get more desired patterns, know what are you guys using that could be helpful.
I still need to check if all patterns are correct.
Any comments, help and suggestions will be appreciated.

Basic Hammer StrategyThis is a basic strategy that will buy after a hammer is printed, and sell when a predetermined risk or reward price is hit. You can change the risk and reward values in the settings. Risk and reward values are in increments of $0.01. Default values are 75 ($0.75) and 200 ($2.00). If the strategy is producing losses, try adding a zero to the end of the risk value and the reward value. Example: Higher valued stocks may do better with a Risk of 750 ($7.50) and a Reward of 2000 ($20.00). Maybe even a Risk of 750 ($7.50) and reward of 1000 ($10.00). Play around with these values to get the best result for different charts. Initial investment is set to $1000
Hammer StrikerThis indicator Scans for Divergence and Hammer and inverted Hammer and doji
after the first oversold spike must come with divergence a doji or a hammer is armed depending on the time frame
is the capitulation candle that is collected
u can then buy or sell
New Candlestick PatternsI have redesigned the first candlestick patterns. This one works with most time frames... The only time frames that it have some difficulties is the 1min to 15min and only on the doji, because sometimes the doji doesnt have any points(pips) in movement.
1. This is a editable indicator. You can change all the colors the way you want them. I have changed my background to the gray/black so that I can see the bright colors easily.
2. I have coded the indicator so that whenever you have a candlestick pattern forming it will send you an alert if you have created one. You can create one alert for all the patterns happening on the chart. (P.S - The higher highs and lower lows is not included in the alert system because its only a indication of the trend/support & resistance)
3. If you want only one of the indicators that is all in one here, you are more than welcome to let me know if you would like to have only one of them.
Note - I will give anyone access to this for a trail period of 2 weeks. Please let me know if you want to test this.
Thank you for your support and likes :)
Spotting HammersThis script can be used to spot hammers on the charts, I try to avoid false positives by ignoring candles which have less than 0.25% price difference between open and close.
Hammers, Bollinger Bands & Moving Average ExponentialShows indicators above/below hammer-like candles.
Also adds BB & EMA in order to reduce active indicator count.
