AI Engulfing Pattern Trader

Trades bullish and bearish engulfing candles only where they matter: at recent swing lows and highs.

How it works

A bullish engulfing candle must fully cover the body of the previous bearish candle and have a minimum body size measured in ATR.

The pattern has to form at the lowest low of the last N bars for buys (highest high for sells), and an RSI check on the previous bar avoids buying into strength or selling into weakness.

The stop goes beyond the two candle pattern with an ATR buffer, the target is a multiple of the stop.
