Inside Candle Up or Down using BODY of Mother candle NOT wick.

[QuantumSense]

I'm sure this is super simple, but I have no idea about coding or programming. I am trying to make an indicator that paints an Inside and Up and Inside and Down formation like the ones I have seen from Mobius, BUT using the BODY of the "Mother Candle" not the wick.

See attached screenshots.

Eg.

(Using generic numbers as price. $5, $7 ect. painting a picture w/ text)

Mother candle = opens at 5, range 3-7 close at 6.
Inside candle = Closes at 4
Trigger candle = Opens at 4, moves to 8 but comes back down and closes at 2 = DOWN formation. (I use this example because this is common and a problem I could see. The close is what is important, however I would like a repainting situation if possible, where in above example, once "Trigger Candle" moves above 4 to 5 (creating an IAU formation and continues to 8, (paints as an IAU formation) but then comes back down through 4 and closing at 3 Creating an a Down formation (switches to Down formation *Looking for a Painted Up or Down Arrow above/Below the Inside candle ****Inside Mother Candle BODY)

Sorry if that is a bad explanation.


Thank you so much if anyone can help. I just want a visual on that formation that I can use against certain levels.
***Also if I can use this on any timeframe, that would be prefered, but if it has to be narrowed to a single timeframe(s)
5 Min is most important followed by 30 min, 2hour and Daily.***



Something like this but with an UP/Down Arrow or some other Visual Cue Above/Below Inside Candle., but using the Body of the "Mother Candle"(candle on left of inside candle) instead of the wicks like this uses. I can read the Trigger candle, thats fine. I just want that Inside Candle to POP once it closes.

# Inside and Outside Bar
# Mobius
# 8.7.2017

def inside = high < high[1] and low > low[1];
def outside = high > high[1] or low < low[1];
AssignPriceColor(if inside
then color.cyan
else if outside
then color.yellow
else color.current);

plot data = close;
data.hide();

An up arrow for IAU and down arrow for IAD or some other visual cue other than candles also.

Example
"Mother Candle"
"Inside Candle" = Paints Up or Down arrow above this once it either closes inside the BODY of Mother candle and or once "Trigger Candle" BREAKS Body High/Low of Inside Candle with repainting arrow if needed, as in, stated above breaks UP=Paints up but before 5m candle finishes, comes back and breaks LOW of Inside candle body = repaints as Down candle"
"Trigger Candle"

I know this is 3 posts, just trying to be as specific as possible since yall are helping me and your time is valuable. Thank you!!


What I am trying to accomplish.

1 = Mother Candle
2= Inside Candle (Up or Down)
3= Trigger candle (In this instance it is Down)

This is a random ttm_Scalper arrow I found that was where I wanted it to be for a visual Representation for yall. But If I could get this on every Inside and Down and Inside and Up Candle/formation that would be Amazing.

OR, just above/below the INSIDE candle and I can manually read the Outside (Trigger) candle if option #1 is too much a pain.



Example of Inside UP candles/Formations and Inside Down And where I'm looking for Arrows.

Another Example Drawn out.

what do you mean by 5 3 7 6 4 ?

Just using numbers. $5, $3, $7, $6, $4 ect. Lol, trying to paint a picture with text.

Just using numbers. $5, $3, $7, $6, $4 ect. Lol, trying to paint a picture with text.

this finds a 3 bar pattern,
.. mother bar, inside bar, trigger bar


finds inside bars,
.. based on the candle body, not wicks,
.. a smaller body after a taller body,
.. draws gray wedges above and below the bar

find a trigger bar, (3rd bar)
.. draw an arrow on the bar (red or green)
.. can choose to force trigger bar to overlap the inside bar, or allow it to be beyond the inside bar. (default is, not force overlap)


i used wedges for inside bars and set the color to be gray, so it is something visible, but not too big of a shape and not too obnoxious.

to get text to appear on a chart, bubbles would have to be used. i think if too many appear, it just clutters up the chart, so i didn't use them. i just used arrows on the trigger bars.

in the future, don't make up abbreviations and then not explain what they are.
iau , iad, have no meaning and just add confusion.
