method that can read candlestick patterns?

does calgo offer a method that can read candlestick patterns? I was thinking like creating a method that looks at the high ontick or onbar then if the close is like 5-10x lower than the high of that candle then that would signal a bearish candle. thanks to anyone that can help :)

Dear Trader,

cAlgo does not offer such method. Maybe a user already implemented what you are searching for in an Indicator/cBot and uploaded it in our Website. You can search for an indicator or cBot that contains a similar method that suits you. You can also contact one of our Partners to create you the method or post a job in Development Jobs section.

You need to employ neural networks for pattern recognition. I have built such a system and will be going public with this soon. Stay tuned.

RE:

"if the close is like 5-10x lower than the high" 5-10x in relation to what? Don't you basically just want

(MarketSeries.High.Last(1) - MarketSeries.Close.Last(1)) / someThing > 5.0

then last bar is a 'bearish' candle? Or were you thinking of something else?
