The 4H Engulf Indicator is a rule-based price action tool designed to identify high-probability trading opportunities on the 4-hour timeframe. Its core logic is built around bullish and bearish engulfing candles, which are widely accepted as strong reversal or continuation signals in technical analysis.

This indicator focuses only on confirmed engulfing patterns, meaning the signal is generated after the candle is fully closed, not while it is forming. This helps eliminate false signals and emotional, premature entries. When a bullish engulfing candle appears, the indicator marks a bullish signal, suggesting potential upward momentum. Conversely, when a bearish engulfing candle forms, a bearish signal is displayed, indicating possible downward pressure.

One of the key strengths of the 4H Engulf Indicator is its clarity and simplicity. Signals are shown directly on the chart using visually clear arrows and labels, allowing the trader to quickly assess market direction without clutter. The indicator does not predict the market; instead, it reacts to confirmed price behavior, which aligns well with disciplined and systematic trading.

The 4-hour timeframe provides a balance between noise reduction and timely opportunities, making this indicator suitable for swing traders and position traders. When combined with trend filters, risk management rules, or higher-timeframe analysis, the 4H Engulf Indicator becomes a powerful component of a professional trading system.
