Inside Candle with EMA +ST +TP/SL@SaheemolInside Candle Breakout with EMA, SuperTrend & Auto TP/SL
This indicator combines the power of the Inside Candle breakout pattern, EMA trend analysis, and SuperTrend confirmation to identify high-probability breakout opportunities while automatically plotting trade management levels.
Key Features
✅ Detects valid Mother-Daughter (Inside Candle) formations using customizable body-size filters.
✅ Plots EMA 9, EMA 21, and EMA 200 to help visualize market trend and structure.
✅ Uses SuperTrend confirmation to filter false breakouts:
Buy signals only when SuperTrend is bullish.
Sell signals only when SuperTrend is bearish.
✅ Automatically identifies breakout levels from the Mother Candle's high and low.
✅ Draws:
Entry zone
Stop Loss (SL)
Take Profit 1 (TP1)
Take Profit 2 (TP2)
using user-configurable Risk ratios.
✅ Highlights Inside Candle setups and displays visual breakout signals directly on the chart.
✅ Includes alert conditions for automated notifications.
How It Works
The indicator searches for a strong Mother Candle followed by a valid Inside Candle.
The Mother Candle's high and low become the breakout levels.
A trade signal is generated only when price breaks out of the Mother Candle range and the SuperTrend agrees with the direction.
TP1, TP2, and SL levels are automatically calculated based on the Mother Candle range.

AG Pro Inside Bar Breakout Quality [AGPro Series]AG Pro Inside Bar Breakout Quality
Overview / What it does
AG Pro Inside Bar Breakout Quality is an overlay tool built to study one of the market’s most familiar compression structures: the inside bar. Instead of stopping at simple detection, the script evaluates what happens after the pattern forms and grades the breakout attempt with a structured quality model. The result is a workflow-oriented view of inside bar compression, breakout strength, and failed continuation behavior.
The script first identifies a strict inside bar condition, where the current bar remains fully contained within the previous bar’s range. That parent range becomes the active reference zone. From there, the script monitors whether price resolves above or below the structure, whether the move is confirmed by close, whether volume supports the breakout, and whether the breakout later fails and re-enters the range within a user-defined window.
This is not designed as a generic “any breakout” marker. Its purpose is narrower and more specific: it focuses on a compact volatility contraction event, then measures how decisively price leaves that compression. In practical chart work, this helps separate a low-commitment range poke from a more convincing expansion move.
The visual presentation is intentionally structured. Inside bar zones are boxed, breakout direction is marked, quality is scored, and fakeouts are labeled when the breakout reverses back into the monitored range. This makes the script suitable for traders who want a cleaner way to inspect inside bar behavior without manually drawing every structure.
Unique Edge
The main difference here is that the script does not treat every inside bar break as equally meaningful. Many tools stop at “pattern detected” or “level broken.” This script adds a second layer: breakout quality. That layer is derived from close position, volume context, candle body participation, and alignment with the parent candle’s directional bias.
A second differentiator is the built-in fakeout logic. After a breakout is detected, the script continues to watch price for a limited number of bars. If the move quickly returns back through the breakout boundary, the event is tagged as a fakeout. This adds post-event context instead of only marking the first directional move.
Another distinction is that the methodology is deterministic and chart-native. The logic is rule-based, visible, and reproducible from bar to bar. Users can decide whether to require close confirmation beyond the inside bar range, whether to require volume confirmation, and how strict they want the displayed threshold to be through the minimum score filter.
In short, this script is not only about finding compression. It is about ranking the quality of the expansion attempt that follows the compression, while also acknowledging that some breakouts fail quickly and should be read differently.
Methodology
1) Inside Bar Detection
An inside bar is identified when the current bar’s high is lower than the previous bar’s high and the current bar’s low is higher than the previous bar’s low. This creates a strict containment definition based on the previous candle’s full range.
2) Reference Zone
Once an inside bar is detected, the prior candle becomes the parent reference bar. Its high and low define the active breakout boundaries. That range can be visualized as a box, with an optional midpoint line to make the compression zone easier to read on chart.
3) Breakout Confirmation
A bullish breakout occurs when price moves above the parent high. A bearish breakout occurs when price moves below the parent low. Users can choose whether breakout confirmation should be based on close beyond the range or on a less restrictive intrabar break condition.
4) Quality Score
Each breakout can be scored on a 0–10 scale. The score is built from multiple components:
- close position relative to the inside bar boundary
- volume ratio versus the selected moving average
- body participation within the breakout candle’s total range
- directional alignment between the breakout and the parent candle bias
This scoring model is designed to estimate how committed the breakout candle appears, rather than assuming all breaks have equal informational value.
5) Fakeout Detection
If enabled, the script monitors a user-defined number of bars after breakout. A bullish breakout that returns back below the upper boundary within that window is labeled as a bull trap / fakeout. A bearish breakout that returns back above the lower boundary within that window is labeled as a bear trap / fakeout.
6) Visual Layer
The script can display the inside bar zone, midpoint, breakout arrows, score labels, and fakeout markers. A summary panel tracks aggregate statistics such as total inside bars, total breakouts, breakout direction counts, fakeouts, and the latest breakout score.
Signals & Alerts
The script can provide alert conditions for:
- bullish inside bar breakout
- bearish inside bar breakout
- fakeout detection
- high-quality breakout events
- any breakout event
These alerts are intended to help users monitor the pattern and its resolution more efficiently. They do not replace trade planning, confirmation from broader market context, or independent risk management.
Key Inputs
Min Score to Show Breakout
Filters displayed breakout labels by quality threshold. This can be useful for reducing low-quality visual noise.
Volume Confirmation Required
When enabled, breakout evaluation requires volume to be above its moving average threshold. This can help remove low-participation breaks.
Volume MA Period
Defines the lookback length for average volume comparison.
Require Close Beyond IB
When enabled, breakout confirmation depends on bar close beyond the parent range. This creates a more conservative and more stable breakout definition.
Max IBs to Display
Controls how many recent structures and related objects remain visible on chart.
Show IB Box / Midline / Breakout Arrow / Score Label
Lets users decide how much visual detail they want to keep on screen.
Glow Effect on High Score
Adds emphasis to stronger breakout events without changing the underlying logic.
Fakeout Window
Defines how many bars after breakout the script should continue monitoring for a return back through the breakout boundary.
Limitations & Transparency
This script studies inside bar compression and subsequent breakout behavior. It does not claim to identify all meaningful consolidations, and it does not attempt to classify every market regime. The methodology is intentionally focused on one structure.
The score is a rule-based quality model, not an objective measure of future outcome. A high score does not guarantee continuation, and a lower score does not guarantee failure. It simply reflects how the breakout candle and its context behave according to the script’s internal criteria.
Volume-based interpretation may vary across symbols and markets. On some instruments, especially those with inconsistent or synthetic volume data, volume confirmation may be less informative than on others. Users should evaluate whether volume filtering is appropriate for the asset they are studying.
Fakeout detection is also definition-dependent. The script labels a fakeout when price returns through the breakout boundary within the selected lookback window. Different traders may prefer a different timing window or a different failure definition.
As with any overlay, chart readability depends on market volatility, timeframe, and user settings. On lower timeframes or during highly active periods, more visual events may appear. The built-in filters and display controls are there to help manage that density.
Risk Disclosure
This script is an analytical tool for chart study. It is not financial advice, not a trade recommendation, and not a promise of future results.
Inside bar breakouts can behave differently across timeframes, instruments, and market regimes. Users should not rely on a single pattern, score, or alert in isolation. Context still matters, including trend condition, liquidity environment, nearby structure, volatility regime, and execution discipline.
Before using this script in any live decision process, it should be reviewed in the specific market and timeframe relevant to the user’s own approach. Testing, observation, and risk controls remain essential.

Compression Patterns (w/ Trend + Proximity Filter)🧠 Description:
This indicator identifies high-probability price compression patterns within trending environments — a setup prized by experienced swing and day traders alike. It combines the classic NR4, NR7, 2-Bar NR, 3-Bar NR, and Inside Day formations with a powerful trend filter and proximity logic to deliver clear, focused signals.
🔍 What's Inside:
▪️ Compression Patterns
The core of this tool lies in the logic of price compression. These patterns signal the market taking a breath — volatility contracts, volume dries up, and price coils like a spring.
When this happens in the right context, the next move is often explosive.
NR4 / NR7: Narrowest range in 4 or 7 bars — excellent for spotting the quiet before the storm.
2-Bar NR / 3-Bar NR: These identify the tightest consecutive 2 or 3-day ranges over the past 20 days — contextually rare and powerful.
Inside Day: A simple but highly effective consolidation pattern, especially when it clusters around key moving averages.
▪️ Trend Filter (EMA Stack)
You could say this is where most indicators fall apart — no context.
This one doesn’t make that mistake.
Signals only fire when the 10 EMA > 20 EMA > 50 EMA, and price is above the 20 EMA. That’s a strong, established uptrend — the only environment where breakouts are statistically favourable.
Why?
Because trend following works.
It may not give you fixed daily returns, but it’s the only strategy with theoretically infinite profit potential. You risk little, trade less, and position yourself for rare but massive moves. That’s the edge.
▪️ Proximity Filter (1 ATR to EMA)
We’ve added another layer of discipline. Signals only fire when price is:
Within 1 ATR of the 10 EMA (if price is above it), or
Within 1 ATR of the 20 EMA (if price is below the 10 EMA)
This ensures you’re not chasing. You’re waiting for tight, controlled pullbacks into dynamic support — exactly where institutions add size, not exit.
⚙️ Fully Customisable:
Toggle visibility of each pattern
Custom colours and transparency for label & background
Adjustable ATR length and multiplier
Change label text if needed (useful for translations or tweaks)
🎯 Ideal Use Case:
Swing trading off the daily chart
Day trading with VWAP/MACD filters (in alternate versions)
Supplementing price action strategies
🔚 Final Word:
This isn’t an “everything scanner.”
It’s a discerning sniper scope for traders who wait patiently for clean trends, tight consolidations, and perfect proximity — then strike.

See inside Candles: Directionality %; Constituent Bars & GapsSee inside candles based on user-input LTF setting: get data on 'Directionality' of your candle; Gaps (total and Sum; UP and DOWN); Number of Bull or Bear constituent candles
//Features:
-DIRECTIONALITY: compare length of the 'zig-zag' random walk of lower time frame constituent candles, to the full height of the current candle. Resulting % I refer to as 'directionality'.
-GAPs: what i refer to as 'gaps' are also known as Volume imbalances: the gap between previous candles close and current candle's open (if there is one).
--Gaps total (up vs down gaps). Number of Up gaps printed above bar in green, down gaps printed below bar in red.
--Gaps Sum (total summed UP gap, total summed down gaps. Sum of Up gaps printed above bar in green, Sum of down gaps printed below bar in red.
-Candles Total: Numer of LTF up vs down candles within current timeframe candle. Number of up candles printed above bar in green, Number of down candles printed below bar in red.
//USAGE:
-Primary purpose in this was the Directionality aspect. Wanted to get a measure of how choppy vs how directional the internals of a candle were. Idea being that a candle with high % directionality (approaching 100) would imply trending conditions; while a candle which was large range and full bodies but had a low % directionality would imply the internals were back-and-forth and => rebalanced, potentially indicating price may not need to retrace back into it and rebalance further. All rather experimental, please treat it as such: have a play around with it.
-Number of gaps, Sums of up and down gaps, ratio of up and down constituent candles also intended to serve a similar purpose as the above.
-Set the input lower timeframe; this must obviously be lower then your current timeframe. You will significant differences in results depending on the ratio your timeframes (chart timeframe vs user-input timeframe).
//User Inputs:
-Lower timeframe input (setting child candle size within current chart parent candle).
-Choose function from the four listed above.
-typical formating options: Bull color/bear color txt for gaps functions.
-display % unit or not.
-display vertical or horizontal text.
-Set min / max directionality thresholds; and color code results.
-Toggle on/off 'hide results outside of threshold' to declutter the chart.
-choose label style.
//NOTES:
-Directionality thresholds can be set manually; Max and Min thresholds can be set to filter out 'non-extreme' readings.
-Note that directionality % can sometimes exceed 100%, in cases where price trends very strongly and gaps up continuously such that sum of constituent candles is less than total range of parent candle.
-Personally i like the idea of seeking bold, large-range, full bodied candles, with a lower than typical directionality %; indicating that a price move is both significant and it's already done it's rebalancing; I would see this as potentially favourable for continuation (obviously depending on context).
