## Class forge.ta.Marubozu

```python
forge.ta.Marubozu(**inputs: Any) -> None
```

A bar with almost no wicks, rising or falling.

body = |close - open|, range = high - low, upper wick = high - max(open, close), lower wick = min(open, close) - low

body > 0, upper wick <= wick_pct / 100 * range and lower wick <= wick_pct / 100 * range

Found: 1 on a rising bar, -1 on a falling bar

A bar whose high equals its low, or that has a missing price, is never part of a pattern. Computed on the prices the bars are drawn with: on Heikin-Ashi or Renko bars those are the built candles.

Since Forge API 1.
