Want to quickly identify clear chart patterns instead of searching manually for long periods? With the TPTE InsideBarFinder, you can analyze the interaction of two consecutive candles in ATAS and reliably filter Inside Bars – including various additional parameters such as candle direction, candle body size, or wick lengths. Use the “Mirror Mode” feature to recognize the reverse market situation as well, and have important zones or boxes marked directly on the chart.
The TPTE InsideBarFinder saves you the time-consuming evaluation of individual bars in search of Inside Bar constellations. You define which criteria the “first candle” and the “second candle” must meet for the pattern to be considered an “Inside Bar”. This can refer to candle bodies, upper or lower wicks, POC relation, or even the direction (bullish/bearish) of each candle. Additionally, you can specify whether a candle should lie completely within the other or just the bar body.
Thanks to practical box markings and lines, you can immediately recognize which areas on the chart are relevant – for example, by having a line drawn above or below the candle high/low, or a box around the respective Inside Bar setup. With Mirror Mode, you can include the opposite case right away and cover different market movements. Set alarms, choose your preferred colors, brush opacities, and line styles to perfectly adapt the Inside Bars to your trading style.
With the TPTE InsideBarFinder for ATAS, you can quickly and accurately detect Inside Bars. You define how the second candle must relate to the first – whether only the body or the entire bar lies within the range. Thanks to adjustable markings, colors, and alarms, you can immediately recognize and precisely trade every Inside Bar signal.
Two-Candle Configuration
First Candle: Determine its direction (bullish/bearish/neutral) as well as minimum or maximum values for candle body and wick length.
Second Candle: Specify how it must relate to the first candle (e.g., completely within the range, only within the bar body).
Inside Bar Mode
Bar Body is inside Bar Body: Only the actual candle body must lie within the body of the first candle.
Whole Bar: The entire bar (including wicks) is checked.
Mirror Mode
Counter Inside Bars: Deactivate or activate “Mirror Mode” to cover the same logic in reverse – practical for opposite setups.
Parallel Drawing: Set separate colors and line styles for mirror setups to immediately recognize when the market signals in the other direction.
Delta and POC Options
Delta Mode: Activate additional conditions for the delta of the respective candle (e.g., inactive, bullish, bearish).
POC Position Relation: Determine whether the POC of the bar should be in the lower, upper, or middle range before the Inside Bar signal is valid.
Lines and Box Markings
Line Position: Choose whether the line should be drawn at the high, low, open, or another point of the candle.
Box Reference: Mark candles or candle areas with colored boxes (e.g., to emphasize Inside Bars).
Line Offset: Shift markings by a few ticks to better read the price movement.
Visual Customization
Color Design: Choose different colors and opacities for your lines, boxes, and frame.
Line Thickness & Style: Adjust thickness and pattern (solid, dotted, dashed) to your personal style.
Separate Markers for Inside and Mirror Mode: Use, for example, blue markings for regular Inside Bars and red for the mirror variant.
Variable Adjustable Time Window
Draw Line for Max. ‘n’ Bars : Define for how many subsequent bars the marking should remain visible in the chart.
Parameter vs. Whole Bar: Decide whether the time window or bar-related display logics should be applied to individual parameters or the entire candle.
Alerts
Inside Bar Alert: Activate an audio warning or message as soon as a candle constellation meets your Inside Bar criteria.
Custom Alert Files: Choose between different sound files (“Alert1”, “Alert2” …) to immediately recognize inside bars acoustically.
Compare two consecutive candles – exactly according to your specifications.
Define whether only the body or the complete bar lies within the first candle.
Automatically recognize the mirrored candle constellation as well.
Incorporate candle-specific volume information for even more precise filters.
Lines, boxes, ticks – and acoustic warnings for new Inside Bars.
Adjust colors, line strengths, and time periods. Your chart, your rules!
