Candlestick Patterns nodes
18 Candlestick Patterns building blocks in the Algovex node library. Each is a node you can drop on the visual canvas, connect into a strategy, backtest and export. No code required.
Belt Hold
Detects Belt Hold (Yorikiri) pattern — a single strong candle that opens at its extreme and closes near the opposite, showing strong directional commitment.
Doji
Detects doji candlestick patterns (standard, long-legged, dragonfly, gravestone, four-price) where open and close are virtually equal, signalling indecision.
Engulfing
Detects bullish and bearish engulfing candlestick patterns where the second candle body completely engulfs the first.
Hammer
Detects hammer and inverted hammer candlestick patterns — bullish reversal signals with a long wick relative to a small body.
Hanging Man
Detects hanging man candlestick pattern — a bearish reversal signal with a long lower wick and small body at the top of the range, appearing after an uptrend.
