The "Candle Close Alert" (CCA) is a custom technical analysis tool. It operates as an overlay on price charts and serves to detect and notify users about significant changes in consecutive candle closes. The script calculates the difference between the closing price of the current candle and the previous candle, referred to as the "close difference." It then compares this close difference against a user-specified threshold value.
When the close difference exceeds the threshold, the script triggers an alert, notifying users of a potential noteworthy event. This alert can serve as a prompt for traders and investors to investigate the current price action further or to consider possible trading decisions.
Additionally, the script enhances visualization by plotting the close differences on the price chart. Positive close differences exceeding the threshold are plotted in green, while negative close differences exceeding the threshold in magnitude are plotted in red. This color-coded visualization helps users quickly identify periods of significant price movement and potential market trends.
However, it's important to note that the CCA script is a standalone tool and should be used in conjunction with comprehensive market analysis. Trading decisions should not be solely based on the alerts and visualizations provided by this script. Instead, they should be considered within the broader context of other technical indicators, fundamental analysis, and risk management strategies. Enjoy it!
