Inside Candle e Outside Nicolau Edition

This indicator automatically identifies and highlights two of the most
reliable candlestick patterns in technical analysis:
🔹 Inside Candle — A candle fully contained within the previous one,
signaling market compression and potential breakout setup.
🔸 Bullish Engulfing — A bullish candle that completely engulfs the
body of the prior bearish candle, indicating potential reversal to
the upside.
🔸 Bearish Engulfing — A bearish candle that completely engulfs the
body of the prior bullish candle, indicating potential reversal to
the downside.

⚙️ FEATURES

✅ Candle coloring directly on the chart (barcolor)
✅ Optional arrows for quick visual identification
✅ Minimum body size filter for engulfing patterns
✅ Fully customizable colors
✅ Built-in alerts for all patterns
✅ Engulfing takes priority over Inside Candle when both occur
