Next Candle Predictor with Auto Hedging

The "Next Candle Predictor with Auto Hedging" is a Pine Script indicator designed for use on TradingView. It combines predictive analysis and basic hedging techniques to assist traders in making informed decisions. Here's a detailed explanation suitable for public sharing on TradingView:
Overview
This script predicts the closing price of the next candle based on the current candle's open and close prices. It also includes an auto hedging feature that suggests potential hedging levels to mitigate risk based on the predicted price movement. The indicator is particularly useful for traders looking to enhance their trading strategies with predictive analytics.
Key Features
Next Candle Prediction:
The indicator analyzes the current candle's data (open and close prices) to predict whether the next candle will close higher or lower.
If the current candle is bullish (close > open), it predicts a higher close for the next candle. Conversely, if the candle is bearish, it predicts a lower close.
Auto Hedging:
The script calculates a hedging level based on the predicted close price.
If the predicted close indicates a bullish move, the hedge level is set slightly below the predicted close, suggesting where a trader might consider placing a hedge. If the prediction indicates a bearish move, the hedge level is set above the predicted close.
Elliott Wave Analysis:
The script includes a basic implementation of identifying significant price movements, akin to Elliott Wave analysis, by detecting peaks and troughs over a specified number of bars (wave length).
This can help traders identify potential trend reversals or continuations.
How It Works
Input Parameters: Users can customize the waveLength parameter, which determines how many bars back the script looks to identify significant highs and lows.
Peak and Trough Detection: The script identifies the highest high and lowest low within the specified wave length, plotting these points on the chart for visual reference.
Prediction Logic: The predicted close is calculated based on the current candle's behavior, allowing traders to anticipate price movements.
Hedging Level Calculation: The script dynamically calculates a hedging level based on the predicted close, providing a visual cue for potential risk management strategies.

The "Next Candle Predictor with Auto Hedging" indicator is a powerful tool for traders seeking to enhance their trading strategies with predictive analytics and risk management techniques.
