Bull vs Bear Candle Count

Bull vs Bear Candle Count
Bull vs Bear Candle Count is a market participation and directional bias indicator designed to measure whether buyers or sellers have been dominating recent price action.
Instead of relying on traditional moving averages or oscillators, this indicator simply analyzes the number of bullish and bearish candles over a customizable lookback period to determine whether the market environment is currently Bullish, Bearish, or Balanced. Based on the candle distribution, the indicator calculates net directional pressure and visually highlights shifts in market conditions.
Features:

• Net Bias histogram for directional strength visualization
• Bull % and Bear % comparison lines
• Adjustable balanced threshold sensitivity
• Optional background highlighting based on market state
• State transition markers for environment changes
• Summary table displaying:

Potential use cases:
