Summary

AI summary
Doji Engulf is a technical indicator designed for use on multiple higher timeframes including 1 hour, 4 hours, and daily charts. It identifies Doji candlestick patterns—candles with small bodies relative to their range—and validates these signals by checking volume filters and relative strength index (RSI) conditions. The indicator marks detected Doji candles on the chart with orange diamond icons and highlights their high and low prices with solid horizontal lines extending over subsequent candles. It also detects Smart Money Technique (SMT) divergences by comparing price highs and lows with RSI values, marking bullish and bearish divergences with green up arrows and red down arrows respectively. Parameters allow customization of Doji size, candle body ratios, volume filtering, volume moving average period, RSI period, and wick-to-body ratio. The indicator supports multiple timeframes from 15 minutes up to monthly, adapting its analysis accordingly. It provides visual cues directly on the trading chart to assist traders in identifying potential reversal or continuation signals based on Doji patterns and divergence analysis.
