'CandleStickPattern' missing many of the top performing patterns

[Elliott Wave]

The CandleStickPattern indicator is really great and I was hoping it could be expanded to include more patterns, specifically 'top performing' ones.

According to Bulkowski's book Encyclopedia of Candlestick Charts
of the top 10 performing candlestick patterns, these ones are currently absent from the indicator:


1. (best) Three line strike, bearish
Theory: Bearish continuation
Actual: Bullish reversal 84% of the time
Frequency rank: 94
Overall performance rank: 1 (best)


2. Three line strike, bullish
Theory: Bullish continuation
Actual: Bearish reversal 65% of the time
Frequency rank: 95
Overall performance rank: 2


7. Matching low
Theory: Bullish reversal
Actual: Bearish continuation 61% of the time
Frequency rank: 58
Overall performance rank: 8


8. Abandoned baby, bullish
Theory: Bullish reversal
Actual: Bullish reversal 70% of the time
Frequency rank: 92
Overall performance rank: 9

[Elliott Wave]

top performing patterns continued...


9. Two black gapping
Theory: Bearish continuation
Actual: Bearish continuation 68% of the time
Frequency rank: 29
Overall performance rank: 10


10. Breakaway, bearish
Theory: Bearish reversal
Actual: Bearish reversal 63% of the time
Frequency rank: 98
Overall performance rank: 11

Thanks for the info. We'll add it to the list of future considerations.

Elliott Wave, I was hoping perhaps you had a chance to add the top 1 or 2 patterns to the indicator yourself by now, since you are such a good programmer?

Also, I am trying to find a 3 bar reversal indicator, got one by chance?
