Multiple Pattern Detection​

The CandlestickPatterns indicator is designed to identify and highlight multiple candlestick patterns simultaneously. This functionality is particularly useful when several patterns converge on the same candle, indicating a stronger signal.

Key Features of Multiple Pattern Detection

Convergence of Patterns


  • The indicator can show multiple patterns on a single candle, represented by arrows.
  • Blue arrows indicate bullish patterns, while red arrows signify bearish patterns.
  • When several arrows are displayed on the same candle, it suggests that multiple patterns have formed concurrently, strengthening the signal.
Enhanced Signal Strength

  • The convergence of patterns on a single candle close suggests a higher probability of a significant market move.
  • For instance, a candle may exhibit both a Bullish Engulfing pattern and a Morning Star, marked by two or more blue arrows. This confluence signals a stronger bullish sentiment.
Visual Representation

  • Arrows are placed above or below the candle to denote the detected patterns.
  • Multiple arrows on a single candle provide a clear visual cue of the confluence, making it easier for traders to spot and act upon.
Example Scenarios

Bullish Confluence


  • A candle closes with two blue arrows, indicating both a Hammer and a Bullish Harami pattern.
  • This dual confirmation suggests a strong potential for an upward price movement.
Bearish Confluence

  • A candle closes with three red arrows, indicating a Shooting Star, a Bearish Engulfing, and a Bearish Harami pattern.
  • This triple confirmation signals a significant likelihood of a downward price movement.
Mixed Patterns

  • On rarer occasions, a candle might show both bullish and bearish patterns, marked by both blue and red arrows.
  • This mixed signal indicates market indecision and potential volatility, prompting traders to exercise caution.
