About:

This Indicator finds the Shark Fin Pattern. It will show an arrow in the current bar if RSI sharkfin is finished forming in previous bar.

What is Shark Fin TDI Pattern?

Upper Shark Fin: In TDI Indicator when Green RSI breaks above a certain level and also breaks upper Volatility band and then breaks below that level, then a shapre resembling a Shark's fin is formed.

RSI follows the price. This pattern indicates that RSI rose suddenly and fell, means price will most likely keep falling further and so it's a good time to make a SELL.

For BUY Signal, it's an inverted shark fin.

How to use it and Optimize settings?

Apply indicator to chart and also apply a TDI indicator. You'll see Sharkfins forming in the TDI. Change MinLevelDist and MaxFinBars values and see which types of Sharkfins you need to detect.

Keeping lower MinLevelDist and lower MaxFinBars is great for scalping. But for longer trading on higher frames set these values to higher. Otherwise you'll get too many unreliable signals.
