The Matching Close / Equal High Low Finder works by systematically scanning price candles within a defined historical period to identify matching patterns. It specifically looks for bullish candles paired with other bullish candles, and bearish candles paired with other bearish candles, ensuring strict matching criteria.
The algorithm checks each candle against others, verifying that no intermediate candles break the matching condition. For bullish matches, no intermediate candle can have a higher close price than the first candle, while for bearish matches, no intermediate candle can have a lower close price than the first matched candle.
