3 CANDLE MANIPULATION
This indicator looks for:
GREEN → RED → GREEN
or
RED → GREEN → RED
The middle candle represents a temporary change in control.
The 3rd candle shows the original side taking control back.
GREEN → RED → GREEN
= Possible failed seller takeover
= Green arrow below Candle 3
RED → GREEN → RED
= Possible failed buyer takeover
= Red arrow above Candle 3
OPTIONAL VOLUME FILTER:
When ON:
Candle 3 must have higher volume than Candle 2.

Volume is ignored.
Simple idea:
Candle 2 = ATTEMPT
Candle 3 = REJECTION
The pattern can help identify possible traps, rejection, failed reversals, and quick shifts in market control.
