""" Pattern detection utilities for candlestick and chart patterns. Author: @TexasCoding Date: 2025-08-02 Overview: Provides pattern detection utilities for candlestick and chart patterns commonly used in technical analysis. Includes candlestick pattern recognition, chart pattern detection, and comprehensive pattern analysis for trading signals. Key Features: - Candlestick pattern detection (Doji, Hammer, Shooting Star) - Chart pattern recognition (Double Tops, Double Bottoms) - Bullish/Bearish candle classification - Pattern strength and confidence scoring - Comprehensive pattern analysis - Polars DataFrame integration Pattern Detection: - Candlestick patterns for short-term analysis - Chart patterns for medium-term analysis - Pattern strength and reliability metrics - Bullish/Bearish signal classification - Volume and price pattern correlation - Technical analysis pattern recognition Example Usage: ```python from project_x_py.utils import detect_candlestick_patterns, detect_chart_patterns # Detect candlestick patterns patterns = detect_candlestick_patterns(ohlcv_data) doji_count = patterns.filter(pl.col("doji") == True).height print(f"Doji patterns found: {doji_count}") # Check for specific patterns bullish_candles = patterns.filter(pl.col("bullish_candle") == True) hammers = patterns.filter(pl.col("hammer") == True) # Detect chart patterns chart_patterns = detect_chart_patterns(price_data, window=20) print(f"Double tops found: {len(chart_patterns['double_tops'])}") print(f"Double bottoms found: {len(chart_patterns['double_bottoms'])}") ``` Candlestick Patterns: - Doji: Very small body relative to range (indecision) - Hammer: Small body, long lower shadow, little upper shadow (bullish) - Shooting Star: Small body, long upper shadow, little lower shadow (bearish) - Bullish/Bearish candles: Based on body direction - Long body candles: Strong moves with large body relative to range Chart Patterns: - Double Tops: Two similar highs with valley in between (bearish) - Double Bottoms: Two similar lows with peak in between (bullish) - Breakouts: Price breaking above/below key levels - Trend Reversals: Pattern-based reversal signals Pattern Analysis Features: - Pattern strength calculation - Volume confirmation analysis - Price level validation - Pattern reliability scoring - Multi-timeframe pattern analysis - Pattern completion tracking Performance Characteristics: - Efficient pattern detection algorithms - Memory-optimized for large datasets - Fast pattern recognition for real-time analysis - Polars DataFrame integration for performance - Optimized for high-frequency pattern detection See Also: - `utils.portfolio_analytics`: Portfolio analysis and metrics - `utils.trading_calculations`: Trading calculations and math - `utils.data_utils`: Data processing and analysis """ from typing import Any import polars as pl def detect_candlestick_patterns( data: pl.DataFrame, open_col: str = "open", high_col: str = "high", low_col: str = "low", close_col: str = "close", ) -> pl.DataFrame: """ Detect basic candlestick patterns.
