Deep Pattern Builder

Deep Pattern Builder is the most advanced indicator within the DeepCharts suite. It enables you to build fully customized trading logic using relational conditions and to automatically backtest those conditions through the built-in simulation engine.

To properly understand this indicator, we must first understand the core concepts behind condition building and how multiple conditions are combined to form complex trading logic.

1. Understanding Condition Logic

Each condition in Deep Pattern Builder is built using:

• Input Types
• Mathematical Operators
• Logical Operators
• Condition Combine Modes

Let’s break these down step by step.

Input Types

There are three types of inputs:

1. Reference

This input type allows you to reference different components of a candle, including:

Open, Close, High, Low, Bid Volume, Bid NT, Ask Volume, Ask NT, Total Volume, Total NT, Delta Volume, Delta NT, Low–High Ticks, Open–Close Ticks, POC Price %, POC Total Volume, POC on Shadow, Cumulative Delta Volume.

2. Indicator

This input type allows you to dynamically fetch values from another indicator applied to your chart (explained later in this article).

3. Constant

A predefined numerical value that you manually enter.

Mathematical Operators

The available mathematical operators are:

• + (Addition)
• • (Subtraction)
• x (Multiplication)
• / (Division)

Logical Operators

Logical operators define the relationship between two calculated values:

• > Greater Than
• >= Greater Than or Equal To
• = Equal To
• <> Not Equal To
• < Less Than
• <= Less Than or Equal To

Building Simple Conditions

Let’s begin with a simple example using constant inputs.

Assume:

• Input A = 40
• Input B = 30

We can evaluate:

• A > B → True
• A < B → False
• A = B → False
• A <> B → True
• A >= B → True
• A <= B → False

You can use up to four inputs in a single condition:

Example:

• A + B > C + D
• A − B < C + D

With four inputs and operator combinations, hundreds of logical structures can be created.

Example Using Candle Data

Now let’s apply the same logic using real market data.

Assume:

• A = Open (Reference input)
• B = Close (Reference input)

Condition:

A − B = 10

If a candle opens at 100 and closes at 90:

100 − 90 = 10

The condition becomes True.

This means we just defined a rule that detects a 10-tick bearish candle. Based on this condition, we can plot a marker (circle, square, etc.) on the chart.

Example Using Another Indicator

We can also fetch values from another indicator.

For example:

• A = Delta from Deep Stats

Condition:

A = -30

This condition becomes true whenever a candle has −30 delta, indicating aggressive selling. A marker can then be plotted on the chart whenever this occurs.

2. Combining Multiple Conditions

Deep Pattern Builder allows combining multiple conditions using:

• OR
• AND
• AND + OR (Advanced)

OR Combination

If:

• Condition 1 = True
• Condition 2 = False

Combination = Condition1 OR Condition2

Result = True

(Only one condition needs to be true.)

AND Combination

Combination = Condition1 AND Condition2

Result = True only if both conditions are true.

Advanced Combination Example

You can combine up to four conditions:

Combination = (Condition1 OR Condition2) AND (Condition3 OR Condition4)

If:

• Condition1 = True
• Condition2 = False
• Condition3 = False
• Condition4 = False

Then:

(True AND False) OR (False AND False)

False AND False

Result = False

3. How to Apply Deep Pattern Builder

1. First, apply the Deep Trades indicator to your chart.
2. Click the Indicator icon on your chart.
3. Search for Deep Pattern Builder.
4. Click the + button to add it.
5. Click the Settings icon to configure it.

4. Settings Explained (Step by Step)

Condition Section

There are 4 Conditions you can set

Enable – Simple Combination

Enables the condition.

Inputs (A, B, C, D)

Each condition allows four inputs.

Click the settings icon beside each input to configure:

Input Type

Options:

• Unused – Disables the input

• Reference – Uses candle values
• Indicator – Fetches data from another indicator
• Constant – Uses a fixed numeric value

Reference Input Settings

When Reference is selected, you can choose:

Open, Close, High, Low, Bid Volume, Bid NT, Ask Volume, Ask NT, Total Volume, Total NT, Delta Volume, Delta NT, Low–High Ticks, Open–Close Ticks, POC Price %, POC Total Volume, POC on Shadow, Cumulative Delta Volume.

Previous Bar

If enabled, the value will be loaded from the previous candle instead of the current one.

Indicator Input Settings

Allows dynamic data retrieval from another indicator.

• Indicator ID – The ID of the indicator on your chart.
• Subgraph ID – The specific value line you want to reference.

Example:

To load Delta from Deep Stats:

1. Add Deep Stats to your chart.
2. Open its settings.
3. Identify the Indicator ID and Subgraph ID.
4. Enter those values into Deep Pattern Builder.

Constant Input

Allows manual entry of a predefined numeric value.

Math Operator 1 & 2

• Math Operator 1: Between Input A and B
• Math Operator 2: Between Input C and D

Logical Operator

Located between the AB block and CD block.

Defines the final comparison between the two calculated results.

5. Condition Combine Mode

Located under Combination Settings.

OR – Simple

All enabled conditions are combined using OR.

Example with 3 conditions:

Condition1 OR Condition2 OR Condition3

AND – Simple

Condition1 AND Condition2 AND Condition3

AND + OR – Advanced

Allows custom grouping using the Advanced Combination section for mixed logic structures.

Calculate on Close

If enabled, conditions are evaluated only after the candle closes.

6. Imbalance Filter

The configuration is similar to the Imbalance Tracker indicator.

7. Plot Settings

Plot Type

• Marker – Displays a marker only
• Background – Highlights the candle background
• Series & Background – Displays both marker and background

Days to Load

Defines how many historical days to calculate.

Plot Price

• High – Above the candle
• Low – Below the candle
• Current – At candle close
• Mid Price – Middle of the wick

Color

Select marker or background color.

Opacity

Adjust background transparency.

8. Alert Settings

Before using alerts:

1. Go to Options → Add Alert.
2. Create your alert.
3. It will then appear in the alert list inside Deep Pattern Builder.

9. Simulation (Automatic Backtesting)

The Simulation section allows you to backtest your custom logic automatically.

Enable

Activates simulation.

Entry Type

• Market – Enters immediately at market price
• Half Bar – Entry logic based on half-bar calculation
• Ticks from Close – Places a limit order X ticks from candle close

Side

Choose Buy or Sell.

Allow Multiple Entries

If enabled, new signals can open additional positions even if one is already active.

Entry Expiration (Bars)

If set to 2, for example, the order must fill within the next 2 bars. Otherwise, it is cancelled.

Stop Settings

Stop (Ticks)

Fixed stop-loss in ticks.

Trailing Stop – Enable

Activates trailing stop.

Trailing Stop – Trigger (Ticks)

Defines how many ticks in profit before trailing activates.

Trailing Stop – Offset (Ticks)

Distance in ticks between price and new stop after activation.

Targets

You can configure multiple targets:

• Define each target in ticks.
• Enable Move to Break Even (B/E) so the stop moves to entry once a target is reached.

10. Subgraph

Color: Set the color of the bid marker

2 Color: Set the color of the ask marker

Subgraph style: you can select any style of the marker from here

11. Running the Backtest

Once all settings are configured:

1. Click Apply and Save.
2. Right-click on the chart.
3. Select Autotrading → Execute Backtest.
   

The simulation will run and generate a performance report.

You can:

• Clear results
• View previous backtests
• Save the backtest report (right-click option)
