cdl_inside(open_, high, low, close, asbool=False, offset=None, **kwargs)[source]#

Candle Type: Inside Bar

An Inside Bar is a bar that is engulfed by the prior highs and lows of it’s previous bar. In other words, the current bar is smaller than it’s previous bar. Set asbool=True if you want to know if it is an Inside Bar. Note by default asbool=False so this returns a 0 if it is not an Inside Bar, 1 if it is an Inside Bar and close > open, and -1 if it is an Inside Bar but close < open.
