## Medium (Publishing)
**Strong Push + Engulfing**
A candlestick pattern indicator that combines **Strong Push** candles with **Engulfing** patterns to spot potential reversals.
**Concept:** A strong push candle shows momentum in one direction. When the next candle engulfs it in the opposite direction, it suggests a reversal. The engulfing candle confirms the shift.
**Long Setup:** Bearish push candle → bullish engulfing candle → entry at close of the engulfing candle.
**Short Setup:** Bullish push candle → bearish engulfing candle → entry at close of the engulfing candle.
**Strong Push Definition:** A candle whose body length is at least X times the average body length over the lookback period (default: 1.5× over 20 bars).
**Engulfing Definition:** The current candle's body completely contains the previous candle's body (open/close range). The engulfing candle must be at least as large as the push candle (configurable ratio).
**Settings:**
- Lookback (default 20): Periods for average body calculation
- Body multiplier (default 1.5): Push candle must be ≥ average × multiplier
- Engulfing body ratio (default 1.0): Engulfing candle must be ≥ push candle × ratio
- Optional ATR filter: Only show signals in higher volatility
**Visuals:** Arrows, labels, background highlight, and optional box around the 2-candle setup. Customizable colors and transparency.
**Repaint:** None. Signals are confirmed at bar close.

## Full (Detailed)
**Strong Push + Engulfing**
A candlestick pattern indicator that identifies reversal setups by combining two concepts: **Strong Push** candles and **Engulfing** patterns.
---
### How It Works
1. **Strong Push Candle (Bar 1)**
A candle with an unusually long body compared to recent bars. Body length = |Close − Open|. The candle qualifies if:
`body ≥ SMA(body, lookback) × multiplier`
Default: body at least 1.5× the 20-bar average.
2. **Engulfing Candle (Bar 2)**
The next candle must engulf the push candle in the opposite direction:
- **Bullish engulfing:** Current candle is green, open ≤ prior close, close ≥ prior open (body fully contains prior body).
- **Bearish engulfing:** Current candle is red, open ≥ prior close, close ≤ prior open (body fully contains prior body).
The engulfing candle must be at least as large as the push candle (configurable).
3. **Entry**
At the close of the engulfing candle (bar 2).
