It visually highlights candles that form Engulfing (Bullish/Bearish) and Inside Bars patterns, assisting traders in making more assertive decisions with real-time confirmation.
Main Features

How to Analyze the Patterns?
1. Bullish Engulfing (Green) What Is It?
A bullish candle completely engulfs the previous bearish candle, indicating strong buying pressure.
How to Trade?
- Wait for confirmation: the next candle must close above the Engulfing candle.
- Ideal in downtrends for potential reversals.
2. Bearish Engulfing (Red) What Is It?
A bearish candle fully covers the previous bullish candle, signaling strong selling pressure.
How to Trade?
- Confirmation: next candle closes below the Engulfing candle.
- Best performance in uptrends, warning of potential reversals.
3. Inside Bar (Blue) What Is It?
A candle with highs and lows contained within the previous candle, indicating indecision before a breakout.
How to Trade?
- Breakout upwards (bullish) → Target above the previous candle's high.
- Breakout downwards (bearish) → Target below the previous candle's low.
- Excellent for breakout traders during consolidation periods.
