ICT Dealing Range

This indicator identifies and plots ICT (Inner Circle Trader) Dealing Ranges - key institutional areas where smart money accumulates or distributes positions before significant moves.

What is a Dealing Range?

A Dealing Range is a significant price area where institutional traders accumulate or distribute their positions. These ranges form through a specific sequence of price movements that indicate institutional order flow:

Bullish Dealing Range Sequence:
1. Initial High (H)
2. Initial Low (L)
3. Higher High (HH)
4. Lower Low (LL)
5. Break above HH (confirmation)

Bearish Dealing Range Sequence:
1. Initial Low (L)
2. Initial High (H)
3. Lower Low (LL)
4. Higher High (HH)
5. Break below LL (confirmation)

Notes
This tool is based on ICT concepts but should be used in conjunction with other forms of analysis. The dealing range provides a framework for understanding institutional order flow, but proper risk management and market context are essential for successful trading.

Remember: The best trades often come from clean retests of these ranges after their initial formation. Patience in waiting for proper setups is key to successful implementation.
