The Strategy

The Sandwich pattern occurs when a middle candle is "sandwiched" between two outer candles of the opposite direction. This represents a powerful price rejection or a "trap" at key levels. Sandwich Candle Scanner Pro filters these structures based on strict price ratios and volume validation to ensure only the highest quality signals are displayed.

Author's Tip

For the best results, use Sandwich Candle Scanner Pro near established Supply & Demand zones or at Key Support/Resistance levels. This confluence significantly increases the win rate of the pattern.

--- INPUT PARAMETERS ---

[ SCANNER TIMEFRAME ]

• Timeframe Selection (M1 - D1): Enable or disable the specific timeframes you want the scanner to monitor for Sandwich patterns.

• InpOffset (Arrow Distance): This parameter controls the vertical distance between the signal arrows and the candles. Adjust this value to ensure the arrows are clearly visible and do not overlap with the price bars on your chart. (default 8000, if too far you can change to 1000-2000)

[ SMART FILTERS (Anti-False Signal) ]

• MinBodyRatio: Sets the required size ratio between the outer "sandwich" candles and the inner candle. A higher ratio ensures stronger price action momentum.

• FilterStrongClose: When enabled, the scanner only validates patterns where the third candle closes strongly, filtering out weak or indecisive rejections.

• MinBodyPips: The minimum size (in pips) required for the signal candles. This helps filter out market noise during low-volatility sessions.

[ ON / OFF SIGNAL ]

• ShowBull / ShowBear: Easily toggle Bullish or Bearish signals on and off to focus on the specific trend direction you are trading.

[ NOTIFICATIONS ]

• InpPush: Set to True to receive instant Push Notifications on your smartphone MT5 Mobile App.

• InpAlert: Set to True to enable standard pop-up alerts and sound on your MT5 Desktop terminal.
