A candle have three values.
Close<Open
Close>Open
CLose=Open
This is the why of all levels.
Level 1 : wick and shadow for bear candles
Level 2 : wick and shadow for bull candles
Level 3 : body for bear candles
Level 4 : body for bull candles
Level 5 : wick and shadow for "doji" candles
Level 6 : wick and shadow for "doji" candles
Level 7 : body for "doji" candles
Level 8 : body for "doji" candles
Mmmm, maybe we donīt need 6 and 8. I need to review the code but this is a task for later.
This is not a candle as itself Ąs candle emulation, so we have limitations to work.
It would be good Metaquotes includes some more visual features like eSignal or TS have.
TS 2000i have 8 years in the market and have more visual options than MT with 2 years.
They waste a lot of time in new version for EA optimization but 90% of people using MT4 are not EA programmers or testers and trades in manual mode. More visual enhancement would be preferable to some new algorithm optimization.
Btw: talking about TS
