True PinBars — precise and robust
Spot the real pin bars—the ones that actually precede rotation. No chasing every cute wick. This uses strict geometry + market-aware sizing making it the most dynamic on the market.
Features
-
Range Size Filter (optional) :
More robust to outliers and regime shifts.
→ If median = 100 pts and you set PercentOfMedian = 125, today’s bar must be ≥ 125 pts. Clean. Scalable. -
Dual-EMA Trend Filter (optional):
Require price to be on the correct side of EMA 50 and EMA 100 (customizable). Keeps you trading with the tape, not against it. -
Swing Filter (optional):
Demand location. Bull pins form at the lowest low of the last 'number of bars'; bear pins at the highest high. Cuts the mid-range noise. -
Sharper geometry:
-
TailToBodyRatio controls how dominant the tail must be.
-
OppWickMaxOfRange caps the opposite wick as a fraction of the entire candle range (not just the main wick).
Translation: obvious rejection > decorative shadows.
-
-
Non-repainting by design:
Bar-close lock. Signals print only on closed bars. What you see is what the logic validated.
Why it filters better
Layered rules focus on decisive rejection + meaningful size + right context. That means fewer tiny, cosmetic “pins” and more candles that actually matter.
Sensible defaults (fully editable)
-
TailToBodyRatio: 2.0×
