i attached indicator to custom. normally
body size 33% of 100% of body size
secondly my rule
Pin bar body should be inside the prevous bar close - high for bullish trend and close- low for bearish trend
Pin bar colour (red/Green) not important
Previous Bearish trend no wick at top & body size shall be >80%
for buillish trend nno wick at bottom & body size shall be >80%

double LeftEyeMinBodySize = 0.1;
double NoseProtruding = 0.5;
double NoseBodyToLeftEyeBody = 1;
