Overview
An integration pattern for combining candlestick pattern signals with other indicators and price data in a DataFrame for holistic market analysis.
Description
Pattern recognition results can be integrated into a larger analysis framework by:
- DataFrame alignment: Adding pattern columns to an OHLCV DataFrame
- Indicator combination: Correlating patterns with momentum/volatility indicators
- Abstract API usage: Using the Abstract API for dict/DataFrame-based pattern invocation
The _wrapper decorator and abstract.Function.run both support pandas/polars DataFrames, making integration seamless.
Usage
Use this principle when building comprehensive analysis systems that combine candlestick patterns with other technical indicators.
Theoretical Basis
Pattern integration follows a column-addition pattern:
# Abstract integration pattern
for pattern_name in pattern_functions:
df[pattern_name] = compute_pattern(df, pattern_name)
# Composite signal
df['signal'] = df[pattern_columns].sum(axis=1)
