Hello, fellow traders and coding enthusiasts! Have you ever wondered if it's possible to harness the power of candlestick wicks for your trading strategies? I'm intrigued by the idea of creating an indicator that calculates the average of lower wick sizes and higher wick sizes. ️

Let's dive into this intriguing concept together:

️ **Idea Overview:**
Is it feasible to develop an indicator that analyzes the wicks of candlesticks and calculates the average sizes of both the lower wicks (shadows) and the upper wicks? This could potentially offer unique insights into market sentiment and volatility.

**Key Questions:**
1️⃣ Is there existing coding knowledge or a library that could help in calculating wick sizes within popular trading platforms like MetaTrader 4/5?
2️⃣ Could this indicator be customizable to different timeframes, providing valuable insights for day traders, swing traders, and scalpers alike?
3️⃣ What potential applications could this indicator have in shaping trading decisions? How might it complement other technical analysis tools?

️ **Technical Challenges:**
Developing such an indicator might involve calculating the difference between the candle's high/low and its open/close prices. But how can we handle edge cases and irregular wicks effectively?

**Collaboration Zone:**
If you've dabbled in creating custom indicators, coding for trading platforms, or have insights into wick analysis, I'd love to hear from you! Let's brainstorm, share resources, and explore the feasibility of this idea together.

**Exploring New Frontiers:**
Innovation often begins with curiosity and a willingness to experiment. If this concept takes off, it could lead to new ways of understanding market dynamics. Let's embark on this coding journey together and see where it takes us!

Feel free to share your thoughts, insights, and experiences. Let's spark a discussion that could potentially shape the way we approach trading analysis! ️
