Overview

212 Candle Pattern combines price action analysis with technical indicators, specifically using the Average Directional Index and a Moving Average for trend confirmation. The system manages risk through fixed stop loss and take profit levels, including a point-adjustment mechanism for five-digit brokers. It also includes basic account protection via margin checks and a trading percentage limit. The project includes limited documentation, though it references a custom logic class for pattern detection.
