Shooting Star Detector[cryptovarthagam]🌠 Shooting Star Detector
The Shooting Star Detector is a powerful price action tool that automatically identifies potential bearish reversal signals using the well-known Shooting Star candlestick pattern.
Ideal for traders who rely on candlestick psychology to spot high-probability short setups, this script works across all markets and timeframes.
🔍 What is a Shooting Star?
A Shooting Star is a single-candle pattern that typically forms at the top of an uptrend or resistance zone. It’s characterized by:
A small body near the candle's low,
A long upper wick, and
Little or no lower wick.
This pattern suggests that buyers pushed price higher but lost control by the close, hinting at potential bearish momentum ahead.
✅ Indicator Features:
🔴 Accurately detects Shooting Star candles in real-time
🔺 Plots a red triangle above every valid signal candle
🖼️ Optional background highlight for visual clarity
🕵️♂️ Strict ratio-based detection using:
Wick-to-body comparisons
Upper wick dominance
Optional bearish candle confirmation
⚙️ Detection Logic (Rules Used):
Upper wick > 60% of total candle range
Body < 20% of total candle
Lower wick < 15% of candle range
Bearish candle (optional but included for accuracy)
These rules ensure high-quality signals that filter out false positives.
📌 Best Use Cases:
Spotting trend reversals at swing highs
Confirming entries near resistance zones
Enhancing price action or supply/demand strategies
Works on: Crypto, Forex, Stocks, Commodities
🧠 Trading Tip:
Pair this detector with volume confirmation, resistance zones, or bearish divergence for higher-probability entries.
📉 Clean, minimal, and non-repainting — designed for traders who value accuracy over noise.

Price Action StrategyThe **Price Action Strategy** is a tool designed to capture potential market reversals by utilizing classic reversal candlestick patterns such as Hammer, Shooting Star, Doji, and Pin Bar near dinamic support and resistance levels.
***Note to moderators
- The moving average was removed from the strategy because it was not suitable for the strategy and not participating in the entry or exit criteria.
- The moving average length has been replaced/renamed by the support/resistance lenght.
- The bullish engulfing and bearish engulfing patterns were also removed because in practice they were not working as entry criteria, since the candle price invariably closes far from the support/resistance level even considering the sensitivity range. There was no change in the backtest results after removing these patterns.
### Key Elements of the Strategy
1. Support and Resistance Levels
- Support and resistance are pivotal price levels where the asset has previously struggled to move lower (support) or higher (resistance). These levels act as psychological barriers where buying interest (at support) or selling interest (at resistance) often increases, potentially causing price reversals.
- In this strategy, support is calculated as the lowest low and resistance as the highest high over a 16-period length. When the price nears these levels, it indicates possible zones for a reversal, and the strategy looks for specific candlestick patterns to confirm an entry.
2. Candlestick Patterns
- This strategy uses classic reversal patterns, including:
- **Hammer**: Indicates a buy signal, suggesting rejection of lower prices.
- **Shooting Star**: Suggests a sell signal, showing rejection of higher prices.
- **Doji**: Reflects indecision and potential reversal.
- **Pin Bar**: Represents price rejection with a long shadow, often signaling a reversal.
By combining these reversal patterns with the proximity to dinamic support or resistance levels, the strategy aims to capture potential reversal movements.
3. Sensitivity Level
- The sensitivity parameter adjusts the acceptable range (Default 0.018 = 1.8%) around support and resistance levels within which reversal patterns can trigger trades (i.e. the closing price of the candle must occur within the specified range defined by the sensitivity parameter). A higher sensitivity value expands this range, potentially leading to less accurate signals, as it may allow for more false positives.
4. Entry Criteria
- **Buy (Long)**: A Hammer, Doji, or Pin Bar pattern near support.
- **Sell (Short)**: A Shooting Star, Doji, or Pin Bar near resistance.
5. Exit criteria
- Take profit = 9.5%
- Stop loss = 16%
6. No Repainting
- The Price Action Strategy is not subject to repainting.
7. Position Sizing by Equity and risk management
- This strategy has a default configuration to operate with 35% of the equity. The stop loss is set to 16% from the entry price. This way, the strategy is putting at risk about 16% of 35% of equity, that is, around 5.6% of equity for each trade. The percentage of equity and stop loss can be adjusted by the user according to their risk management.
8. Backtest results
- This strategy was subjected to deep backtest and operations in replay mode on **1000000MOGUSDT.P**, with the inclusion of transaction fees at 0.12% and slipagge of 5 ticks, and the past results have shown consistent profitability. Past results are no guarantee of future results. The strategy's backtest results may even be due to overfitting with past data.
9. Chart Visualization
- Support and resistance levels are displayed as green (support) and red (resistance) lines.
- Only the candlestick pattern that generated the entry signal to triger the trade is identified and labeled on the chart. During the operation, the occurrence of new Doji, Pin Bar, Hammer and Shooting Star patterns will not be demonstrated on the chart, since the exit criteria are based on percentage take profit and stop loss.

Candlesticks Patterns [TradingFinder] Pin Bar Hammer Shooting🔵 Introduction
Truly, the title "PulseWire" doesn't do justice to this excellent website, and that's why I've written about its crucial aspect. In this indicator, the identification of all candlesticks known as "Pin bars" is explored.
These candlesticks include the following:
- Hammer : A Pin bar formed at the end of a bearish trend, with its body being either bearish or bullish.
- Shooting Star : Formed at the end of a bullish trend, with its body being either bearish or bullish.
- Hanging Man : Formed during an upward trend, characterized by a candle with a lower shadow.
- Inverted Hammer : Formed during a downward trend, characterized by a candle with an upper shadow.
🟣 Important : For ease of use, we refer to these four candlestick patterns as Pin Bars and categorize them into the main friends "Bullish" and "Bearish."
🟣 Important : In all sources, Hanging Man and Inverted Hammer are referred to as "Reversal candles." However, in reality, whenever they appear after breaking a significant area (Break Out), we expect these candles to signal a continuation of the trend and confirmation in the direction of the trend.
🟣 Important : One of the best signs of market manipulation and entry by market giants is the "Ice Berg." So, it provides one of the best trading opportunities.
🔵 Reason for Creation
Many traders, especially volume traders, use Pin bars as confirmation and enter the market after their occurrence. In this indicator, all four patterns are identified and displayed in a colored candle format, using "triangle" and "circle."
When they are evident on the chart, directly or by drawing a horizontal line, they give us good alerts for reversal or continuation areas.
🔵 Information Table
1. Red circle: Pin bars formed in a downtrend.
2. Blue circle: Bullish Pin bars formed in an uptrend.
3. Black triangle: Bearish Pin bar candle in an uptrend.
4. Blue triangle: Bullish Pin bar candle in a downtrend.
🔵 Settings
Trend Detection Period: A special feature that considers smaller or larger fluctuations. If individual price waves need to be considered, use lower numbers; if the overall trend direction is desired, use larger numbers (e.g., 5-7 or higher). This precisely sets the Zigzag or Pivot format, not displayed but considered in the indicator calculation.
Trend Effect : By changing the Trend Effect status to "Off," all Pin bars, whether bullish or bearish, are displayed regardless of the current market trend. If the status remains "On," only Pin bars in the direction of the main market trend are shown.
🟣 Important : Black triangles "Number 3" and blue triangles "Number 4" displayed in the information table section, as explained in the "Information Table" section.
Show Bullish Pin Bar : When set to "Yes," displays bullish Pin bars; when set to "No," does not display them.
Show Bearish Pin Bar : When set to "Yes," allows the display of bearish Pin bars; when set to "No," does not display them.
Bullish Pin Bar Setting : Using the "Ratio Lower Shadow to Body" and "Ratio Lower Shadow to Higher Shadow" settings, you can customize your bullish Pin bar candles. Larger numbers impose stricter conditions for identifying bullish Pin bars.
Bearish Pin Bar Setting : Using the "Ratio Higher Shadow to Body" and "Ratio Higher Shadow to Lower Shadow" settings, you can customize your bearish Pin bar candles. Larger numbers impose stricter conditions for identifying bearish Pin bars.
Show Info Table : Allows the display or non-display of the information table (located at the bottom of the page and on the right side).
🔵 How to Use
At the end of a downtrend, look for "Hammer" candles, easily identified one by one.
To identify the "Shooting Star" candle pattern at the end of an uptrend; expect a price reversal in the downtrend.
For trades in the downward direction, wait for the formation of an "Inverted Hammer" Pin bar.
And finally, in an uptrend, where a "Hanging Man" candle can form.
🔵 Features
For better visualization, triangles and circles are used above the candles, but they can be easily removed. All Pin bars are displayed in color with the following meanings:
- Black-bodied candle: Inverted Hammer
- Turquoise blue candle: Hammer
- Pink candle: Hanging Man
- Red candle: Shooting Star
🟣 Important : The capability to detect the powerful two-candle pattern "Tweezer Top" at the end of an uptrend emerges by forming two "Shooting Star" candles side by side.
Similarly, the two-candle pattern "Tweezer Bottom" is created at the end of a downtrend with the formation of two "Hammer" candles side by side. To identify the "Tweezer" pattern, make sure the settings in the "Trend Effect" section are set to "Off."
🟣 Auxiliary Indicators

The combination of Order Blocks "-OB" and "+OB" with candles is one of the best trading methods. The indicator that identifies order blocks, along with this indicator, can yield remarkable results in the success of Pin bar candles.

Hammer and inverted Hammer
The "Hammer and Inverted Hammer" indicator is straightforward and effective. It automatically spots key candlestick patterns for you, making it easier to see potential market turns. You can also adjust a few settings to fit your trading style. Simple, yet quite handy for traders!
Alerts for Hammer Pattern: When the script identifies a Hammer pattern, it can trigger an alert. This is particularly useful if you're looking for potential bullish reversal signals and don't want to miss them.
Alerts for Inverted Hammer Pattern: Similarly, when an Inverted Hammer pattern is detected, the script can also trigger an alert. This is helpful for spotting potential bearish reversal signals.
SETTINGS EXPLAINED
Minimum Lower Tail Length (%): This setting allows you to define what percentage of the total candle size should be considered a significant lower tail. This is important for identifying the Hammer pattern.
Number of Consecutive Candles (for Lower Tails): This input lets you choose how many consecutive candles with significant lower tails must be present to identify a pattern.
Percentage of Candle Below Previous Low: This setting determines what percentage of the candle's range must extend below the lowest low of a specified number of previous candles. It's used to assess the significance of a Hammer pattern.
Number of Previous Candles for Lowest Low: This decides how many previous candles the script should look at to calculate the lowest low, which is then used in the Hammer pattern analysis.
Minimum Upper Tail Length (%): Similar to the lower tail setting, this defines the significant length of an upper tail, used for identifying the Inverted Hammer pattern.
Number of Consecutive Candles (for Upper Tails): This input is for setting how many consecutive candles with significant upper tails are required to confirm an Inverted Hammer pattern.
Percentage of Candle Above Previous High: This setting is used to determine how much of the candle's range must be above the highest high of a set number of previous candles, aiding in the identification of the Inverted Hammer pattern.
Number of Previous Candles for Highest High: It specifies the number of past candles to consider for calculating the highest high, which is important for the analysis of Inverted Hammer patterns.
These settings allow you to customize how the script identifies Hammer and Inverted Hammer patterns, making it adaptable to different trading strategies and market conditions. Indicator

The Strat Numbers & CombosThis indicator is an all-in-one " The Strat " script. This script displays the following:
The Strat candle numbers (1's, 2's, & 3's)
The Strat Combo labels along with trigger line
Pivot Machine Gun ( PMG ) dynamic labels
Hammer & Shooter candle labels
The Strat Candle Numbers label each candle, on any timeframe, either a 1, 2, or 3. 1's are inside bars of the previous candles. 2's take out only one side of the previous candle. And 3's go outside both sides of the previous candle.
The Strat Combo labels (which are made of the 1's, 2's, 3's outlined above) display labels when a Strat Combo occurs. The script displays a label, direction arrow, and trigger line for each Strat Combo. This indicator finds the following Strat Combos:
2-1-2 bullish reversal (BLR)
2-1-2 bullish continuation (BLC)
3-1-2 BLR
3-2-2 BLR
1-2-2 rev strat BLR
2-2 BLR
2-1-2 bearish reversal (BRR)
2-1-2 bearish continuation (BRC)
3-1-2 BRR
3-2-2 BRR
1-2-2 rev strat BRR
2-2 BRR
Double inside candles
The Pivot Machine Gun (PMG) labels any 5 or more consecutive candles that make higher lows or 5 or more consecutive candles that make lower highs. A PMG can continue going in its direction or it can reverse and come back through the range. The logic in this indicator dynamically finds each level in a PMG and draws a line for easy identification.
The script also identifies if the candle type is a Hammer, Inverted Hammer, Shooting Star, or Hanging Man. These candle types are highly likely reversal points in price action.The indicator will plot a shape with a color coded icon identifying the candle. The distance between the shape and the candles can be manually adjusted in the inputs section.
This indicator has many style options . The user can independently toggle on/off the Strat numbers, boxes around the Strat Combos, and Hammer and Shooter shapes. Also all of the colors used in this script can be changed from the inputs section, so a user can easily change colors to match their current color scheme.
