Renko Overlay Ribbon

26 Jul 2019

This script has been moved to protected from this location

due to mishandling on multiple trading platforms. Since I have proprietary strategies built on this code, it has caused me to make it protected. This is not an Invite Only script anyone can use it, however the source code is no longer visible.

All calculations are performed against calculated Renko bricks form a price chart. The engine that drives this script is complex, but robust. It attempts to garner the order of nested Renko bricks inside a time candle when multiple bricks are produced. I call these "volatile bricks". In a normal Renko chart where tick data is used, this would be displayed as rapid brick production on the screen.

It is important to choose an appropriate time frame when in Traditional mode. Setting the ribbon to 1 pip on EURUSD using a Day chart is not wise, because there is no way to know just how many 1 pip bricks were produced and in which up/down sequence. ATR mode is different because the bricks are constantly changing in size, adapting to the current ATR of the chart time interval.

Please view these old videos taken from the original page for questions on why this indicator was created in the first place:

Multiple indicators based on renko bricks on time charts can be found here (they also work on renko charts in Trading View). These are special scripts that use this indicator as the engine to generate indicators "as if" you were operating on a Renko chart.

PM for questions, enjoy.
