`three_inside`

A harami confirmed by the third bar.

## Inputs

| Name | Type | Default | Range |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| long_body_pct | float | 50 | 0 to 100 |
| allow_equal | bool | true |  |

## Outputs

| Name | Kind |
| --- | --- |
| three_inside | event |

Warm-up: 2 bars (2 at the defaults).

Repaints: No.

## Formula

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

up: the first two bars are a harami after a fall and the third closes above the first open

down: the first two bars are a harami after a rise and the third closes below the first open

Found: 1 up, -1 down

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.
