Quoting great*daneDislikedI would say yes, I'm not a programmer but I don't see why not, no matter if they are candlesticks, bars, or whatever, you always have open, close, high, and low. Metatrader doesn't have to know that you like candlesticks .
As for how to do it, I think there was a thread here where people requested indicators/EAs and some programmers popped up willing to help. Just pretend it's a small project and unveil your requirements gradually as you go, otherwise you will scare them away.
Good luck,
