The Tweezer Indicator (Tweezer Top) is one of the MetaTrader 4 indicators, designed by combining two Moving Averages (fast and slow) with candlestick analysis to detect reversal zones.
This indicator works by identifying two consecutive candlesticks that appear above both Moving Averages, where the shadow-to-body ratio is 2 to 3 times larger than the opposite shadow. These areas are displayed on the chart as potential reversal points.
The Tweezer Indicator clearly highlights possible trend reversal zones:
- Bullish reversals are marked with a blue box
- Bearish reversals are displayed with a red box on the chart

Indicator in a Bullish Trend
In the GBP/JPY chart, the bullish Tweezer zone is highlighted in blue. In this area, two consecutive candlesticks with long lower shadows and upper shadows appear.
This characteristic signals a demand zone, leading to a price increase.

Indicator in a Bearish Trend
In the NZD/CAD downtrend, two consecutive candlesticks have been identified by the indicator. The upper shadows of these candlesticks are 2 to 3 times larger than their bodies and lower shadows.
The indicator marks these two candlesticks with a red zone, alerting traders to a potential price reversal.

Conclusion
To enhance the analysis and accuracy of the Tweezer Indicator, traders can evaluate buying and selling pressure using a buy/sell pressure indicator.
If within these specific reversal areas, the first candlestick has a larger body while the second candlestick has a smaller body, the reversal becomes more powerful.
By leveraging this approach, traders can use the Tweezer Indicator to identify potential trend reversals with greater confidence.
