Ghost Renko Overlay Indicator
Overview
Ghost Renko Overlay Indicator displays Renko bricks directly on the main price chart as a semi-transparent overlay.
Unlike traditional Renko charts that require a separate offline window, this indicator allows traders to view standard candlestick price action and Renko structure simultaneously on the same chart.
The overlay helps identify trend direction, price noise, and consolidation phases without losing time-based market context.

Renko Calculation Logic
The indicator follows standard Renko construction rules commonly used on professional platforms:
-
All bricks have identical height based on the selected box size
-
Continuation requires one box in the current trend direction
-
Reversal requires two boxes against the previous trend
-
Bricks always connect corner-to-corner without gaps
-
A single price anchor is used for consistent construction
This approach ensures clean, reliable Renko structures without repainting completed bricks.
Visualization

Bullish and bearish bricks are color-coded
-
Adjustable opacity allows price candles to remain visible

Brick width dynamically adapts to market activity
-
Optional shaded noise zones mark periods of sideways movement
