OPEN-SOURCE SCRIPT

2% candle

By MattDeLong
Part of my strategy involves entering a trade based on a candle on a 5-min chart being < 2% (ignoring major volatility).
I got tired of calculating the range of a single candle either in my head or on a calculator, so I wrote this up. Feel free to share it.

Shows the %move of any single candle, default horizontal lines are 1% & 2%, can be changed by clicking the gear icon next to the indicator after you have added the indicator to your chart. Works on any timeframe, 5m, 1h, 1d, etc , obviously
the higher the timeframe, the larger the move.
