I cannot get my head around this logic.
Do you mean the PA patterns kangeroo tail? It's a rare but strong two-candle-pattern. The candle before can either be bullish or bearish. Later one in a middle retracement is a very nice signal that the trend will be continued and the odds are pushed in your favor.
What have you in mind with your flag?

Thank you for your reply krelian,
No, this is called Hit And Run (HnR) and is only one candle as far as i know, but of course it needs some filter to be traded profitable.
Flag: Please see attached picture below.
HnR candles are all over the charts and on all TF's and in all instrument as well. SM(smart money) use this to trick the retail trader to go in the wrong direction and when retail traders is catched in the wrong direction SM moves price in the opposite direction.
Hey guys, my name is John I've been trading for 15 years now, I'm looking to reach out to traders regardless of experience to see if I can help or if you can help me with my trading.
If you are new to trading I am more than happy to spend a bit of time when I am free to teach you the basics i.e.
1. fundamental / tec analysis
2. drawing trend lines
3. plot and trade using trap ranges
4. intra day strategies
5. scalping
The reason why I would like to help is simple, I'm looking to create a community of traders in London (where I live) & worldwide where we can meet up discuss ideas and help each other.
please send me an email for more info
Never heard of HnR candlesticks. You need the previous candle as reference like Harami or Engulfing, so two-candlestick-pattern . In my understanding, and kangeroo tail is very similar, it's equal whether the previous bar is bullish or bearish, it's just a maneuver of the SM to shake off bulls in this case. With the tail on top the bears shall loose. The setflag=false is useless. It only says that you're in a bullish or bearish move, wherefore you don't need a dot to see this. What filter would you use?
if( now != Time[0] )
{
now = Time[0];
}
for(shift = 0; shift < Bars; shift++)
{
// ...once per bar code goes here...
SetHighFlag = false;
SetLowFlag = false;
... your conditions and so on
{
{
now = Time[0];
}
for(shift = 0; shift < Bars; shift++)
{
// ...once per bar code goes here...
SetHighFlag = false;
SetLowFlag = false;
... your conditions and so on

Trap ranges? Do you mean accumulation and distribution zones (congestion zones)?
...
3. plot and trade using trap ranges

No the set flag is not useless. I use it to 'see' if price has been below the low of previous candle, this is how the HnR works. So how can i do this?Never heard of HnR candlesticks.

And i only want to go long if the previous candle is bullish and go short(the opposite scenario) if the previous candle is bearish.

I will put it on my chart and see if it works correctly.
Filters that is on my mind(Mainly PA things), but not tested in any way yet:
1. The length of the tale compare to the rest of the candle
2. Do we have one or two up candle before the HnR candle
3. How many candles does the tale takes out(is it 5 or even 10)
Other thoughts: Do we have a sharp up move in EMA8 - measure the slope
