Hello,
I'm wondering if anyone can help me make a 30m candlestick identifier. Can this be done with a consolidator? I know that resolution is an input, but I'm not sure how to get it to 30m. Also - does this just simply return a bool value when it identifies a match?

First, we need to create the indicator with the pattern we want to identify.
Please take a look at the built-in candlestick patterns for inspiration. If it is a bullish pattern, it is returning 1 if match and 0 otherwise. If it is a bearish one, it is retuning -1 if match and 0 otherwise.
After that, we can register the indicator with a consolidator and get the resolution we aim to:
var consolidator = new TradeBarConsolidator(TimeSpan.FromMinutes(30)); _indicator = new StephenCialdeaPattern(10); RegisterIndicator(symbol, _indicator, consolidator); SubscriptionManager.AddConsolidator(symbol, consolidator);
