Pump and Dump Candles

Description:
The Pump and Dump Candles indicator is a robust tool designed to assist traders in identifying potential pump and dump scenarios within the financial markets. This innovative indicator combines key elements of price action and volatility to provide valuable insights into market manipulations and potential risks. This indicator uses ATR to standardize candle sizes as they vary across different assets and timeframes; by using a percentage of the ATR, you can adjust the threshold dynamically based on the volatility of each asset.

Features:
- Pump/dump candles: Candle bars are colored green when it is pumping and red when it is dumping.
- Pump/dump rallies: The background turns green during sequences of consecutive pumping candles and red in the presence of sustained dumping.
- Candle Size Percentage: Users have the flexibility to define a personalized percentage for calculating candle size.
- Wick Exclusion: This option factors in pump and dump candles with substantial body sizes, mitigating the impact of bars with large wicks and smaller candle bodies.
(These inputs can all be modified within the indicator settings)

Utility:
Understanding pump and dump candles and rallies can be a valuable asset for traders seeking to navigate volatile markets effectively. By closely monitoring the color-coded indicators that highlight pumping and dumping phases, traders gain insights into abrupt and often exaggerated price movements. This information aids in identifying potential short-term trends and anticipating market reversals. Pump and dump rallies, signaled by consecutive pumping or dumping candles, provide a visual representation of sustained buying or selling pressure, allowing traders to assess the strength and duration of market sentiment. Armed with this knowledge, traders can make informed decisions, implement risk management strategies, and capitalize on short-term opportunities, thereby enhancing their overall trading proficiency in dynamic market conditions.
