TheStrat Patterns 外汇EA

This indicator will draw patterns based on Rob Smith’s The Strat as they emerge in real time on your chart.

As price evolves, TheStrat offers 18 distinct price action patterns that can help you get good entries in the market. Each pattern involves two or three candles, and this indicator will draw a bounding box around the candles and name the pattern.

The indicator also shows when a potential setup is forming, known by stratters as an Actionable signal.

Candles

Each candle is defined by its relationship to the previous candle.
Type 1 – Inside candle – The candle is entirely within the high and low of the previous candle. An inside candle shows the market is at a point of indecision.
Type 2 – Trending candle – The candle extends above or below either the High or low, but not both, of the previous candle.
Type 3 – Outside candle – The candle has broken both the high and low of the previous candle. An outside candle shows price is broadening, producing higher highs and lower lows on a lower timeframe.
