Heiken Ashi Candlestick Strength

 
Anyone know how to check the fullness of a candle? Trying to avoid opening trades when candle is weak.
 
What does that even mean ?

Sorry means if the candle forms with long tails but only a thin bar, I want to avoid opening a trade at that point.

Any pointers on where I can read about that?

There's nothing to read about, just code it.
void OnTick(){
   static datetime Time0=0; datetime TimePrev = Time0; Time0=Time[0]; bool isNewBar = TimePrev != Time0;
   if(isNewBar){
      double HAopen   = ...,
             HAclose  = ...,
             bodySize = MathAbs(HAopen - HAclose);
      #define bodySizeEMAlength 10
      static const double bodySizeEMAalpha = 2.0 / (bodySizeEMAlength + 1);
      static double bodySizeAve = 0.0; bodySizeAve += bodySizeEMAalpha * (bodySize - bodySizeAve);
      if(bodySize > bodySizeAve) 
         Print("Significant");
   :
}

Thank you. That should be helpful once include it as a limiter in the code.
