Overview
Momentum Candle is a technical indicator designed to detect strong momentum candles based on body size and wick ratio validation. It is built to help traders quickly identify whether a candle represents genuine bullish or bearish momentum, or merely noise — across multiple forex pairs and BTCUSD.
This indicator is an evolution of the previous Momentum Candle v3, with significant improvements including multi-pair support, EMA trend filter, consolidation validation, dual signal modes, and a time-based alert system.
How It Works
The indicator evaluates each candle using two core criteria:
Minimum Body Size — The candle body (|close − open|) must meet or exceed a user-defined minimum size (in pips), configured separately for each pair and each timeframe (M5, M15, M30).
Wick Ratio — The total wick length must not exceed a configurable percentage of the total candle range (body + wick). Default is 30%, meaning candles with excessive wicks are filtered out.
Signal Modes
Two signal modes are available via the "Mode Candle" input:
Agresif (Aggressive): A signal is generated when the body is large enough and the wick ratio is acceptable, regardless of wick direction. Suitable for traders who want more frequent signals.
Konservatif (Conservative): Adds an additional directional wick check — bullish signals require the lower wick to be smaller than the upper wick, and vice versa for bearish. This reduces noise and false signals.
Alert Modes
Two alert timing modes are available via the "Mode Alert" input:
Agresif: Alert fires immediately every bar when the signal condition is met.
Konservatif: Alert fires only in the 20–90 second window before candle close, reducing premature alerts caused by candles that may still change before closing.
Consolidation Validation (Optional)
When enabled, the indicator checks that the N previous candles (configurable, default 3) are each smaller in body size than the current signal candle. This helps confirm the signal appears after a period of lower volatility, adding context to the momentum reading.
EMA Trend Filter (Optional)
An EMA trend filter can be activated to restrict signals to the direction of the prevailing trend:
Bullish signals only appear when price is above the EMA.
Bearish signals only appear when price is below the EMA.
The EMA timeframe (M5, M15, M30, H1) and period are fully configurable. Recommended: M5=21, M15=50, M30=50, H1=100.
A live trend label (table, top-right) shows the current EMA trend direction.
Supported Pairs and Timeframes
Each pair can be enabled or disabled independently. Minimum body size is configurable per pair and per timeframe:

Set the wick ratio threshold (default 30% is recommended as a starting point).
Choose between Aggressive or Conservative mode depending on your trading style.
Optionally enable the EMA filter for trend-confirmed signals only.
Optionally enable consolidation validation for breakout-style confirmation.

Important Notes
This indicator is a tool for technical analysis only. It does not guarantee trading results.
It is strongly recommended to combine this indicator with price action context, support/resistance levels, and proper risk management.
Past signal performance does not guarantee future results.
This script does not use security() with lookahead to access future data. The EMA from a higher timeframe uses barmerge.lookahead_off to prevent repainting.
This script does not use Heikin Ashi or non-standard chart types. It is designed for standard candlestick charts.
