Pattern Recognition Master

All you have to do is just to look if this chart pattern is bullish or bearish, check the general trend and decide your trading stance. You can refer to this list of Japanese candlestick patterns to quickly find the signal value of the recognized pattern. This indicator is available for both MT4 and MT5 versions of the platform.

Input parameters
