Buy/Sell Ei - Premium Edition (Fixed Momentum)

The Buy/Sell Ei - Premium Edition (Fixed Momentum) indicator provides a systematic approach to identifying trading opportunities by combining advanced candlestick pattern detection with trend-filtering moving averages. It aims to deliver high-precision entry and exit signals for various asset classes, including forex, stocks, and cryptocurrencies, by filtering momentum and confirming trend direction.

Usage

The indicator can be used to identify both preliminary "Ready" setups and confirmed entry signals. It operates in two primary modes:

• Trend Identification: The tool uses one or two moving averages to establish the market bias. Signals are only generated when price action aligns with the trend (e.g., Buy signals occur when price is above the MAs).
• Pattern Recognition: It looks for specific multi-candle formations. A "Ready to Buy/Sell" label indicates a potential setup is forming based on candle body size and shadow ratios, while the "Buy/Sell Signal" confirms the entry on the subsequent candle.
• Momentum Filtering: By enabling the Momentum Filter, users can ensure that signals only appear after a specific number of consecutive bullish or bearish candles, reducing the likelihood of trading against sudden counter-trend spikes.
• Live vs. Backtest Mode: In "Live Trade Mode," signals are processed with a focus on real-time execution. When disabled, the script provides historical performance tracking, including Win/Loss labels based on whether price reached a mathematical target.

Details

The script's logic is built upon three pillars:

1. Moving Average Filter: Supports SMA, EMA, WMA, and VWMA. Users can choose to use a single MA or a dual MA crossover/alignment system to define the trading environment.
2. Candlestick Geometry: The pattern detection logic calculates the relationship between opens, closes, highs, and lows across three consecutive bars. It specifically evaluates the shadow-to-body ratio of the "setup" candle to ensure sufficient rejection or volatility is present before confirming a signal.
3. Performance Tracking: For historical analysis, the indicator calculates a win rate by assessing if the price reaches a target (midpoint of the setup candle) on the bar following a confirmed signal.

Settings

• Live Trade Mode: Toggles between real-time signal generation and historical backtesting with win/loss tracking.
• Enable Date Filter: Restricts the calculation and display of signals to a specific timeframe defined by Start and End dates.
• Fast/Slow MA Length: Sets the period for the primary and secondary moving averages used for trend filtering.
• MA Type: Selects the calculation method for the moving averages (SMA, EMA, WMA, or VWMA).
• Use Single MA Only: When enabled, the trend filter relies solely on the Fast MA instead of requiring alignment between two MAs.
• Enable Momentum Filter: Activates a requirement for a specific number of consecutive candles in the signal direction before a trade is validated.
• Consecutive Candles: Sets the number of bars required to satisfy the momentum filter.

FAQ

How do I interpret the "Ready" labels? A "Ready" label signifies that the initial candlestick pattern requirements and trend filters have been met. It serves as a warning that a confirmed entry signal may appear on the next candle if price action continues to follow the logic.

What is the difference between Live Trade Mode and the default view? Live Trade Mode is optimized for real-time alerts and current bar states. When turned off, the indicator displays historical "Win" and "Loss" labels to help users visualize how the strategy would have performed on past data.
