The All Candlestick Patterns Screener tool provides an advanced monitoring solution for tracking confirmed candlestick patterns across up to 40 different symbols simultaneously. It utilizes a log-style interface to present essential data including symbol names, signal prices, timestamps, and pattern types in an organized, easy-to-read table.

Usage

The screener can be used to monitor a wide variety of assets such as stocks, forex, or cryptocurrencies. By adding it to a chart of an active symbol (e.g., BTCUSDT or SPY), users can track multiple markets for specific candlestick formations without switching charts manually.

  • Trend Filtering: You can enable SMA-based trend detection to filter patterns based on the current market direction.
  • Directional Selection: The tool allows you to filter for Bullish, Bearish, or Both types of patterns to suit your trading bias.
  • Active Monitoring: Use the log table to identify the most recent confirmed patterns, which helps in understanding market psychology and price action shifts.

Details

The script leverages dynamic requests to fetch data for multiple symbols. It integrates a comprehensive library of candlestick patterns, including common ones like Dojis, Hammers, and Engulfing patterns, as well as more complex formations like Three White Soldiers or Falling Three Methods. The implementation focuses on providing a clean visual log that updates as new patterns are confirmed on the selected symbols.
