Summary
The latest code version has introduced significant enhancements focused on validating patterns with confirmation candles before plotting shapes on the chart. This ensures that the patterns identified are more reliable and actionable.

Morning and Evening Star Enhancement:

• For the Morning Star pattern, the Doji candle must now have the lowest low within the three-candle formation.
  
• For the Evening Star pattern, the Doji candle must have the highest high within the three-candle formation.
  
• This adjustment improves the reliability of these patterns by ensuring key characteristics are met.
  

Bullish and Bearish Harami Pattern Correction:

• Corrected the code for Bullish and Bearish Harami patterns. The body of the Harami candle must now be three times smaller than the Mother candle.
  
• This correction ensures the Harami patterns are detected correctly, providing more precise trading signals.
