Smart Range Breakout - SwiftEdgeDescription:
The "Smart Range Breakout - SwiftEdge" indicator is a custom tool designed for identifying potential breakout opportunities on a 1-minute chart, with a focus on volatile markets like the DAX index. This script introduces a unique approach by combining range consolidation detection with volume confirmation and breakout validation, tailored for short-term trading strategies.
How It Works:
The indicator identifies consolidation periods where the price range (difference between the highest high and lowest low over a user-defined length) is below a multiple of the Average True Range (ATR). This helps detect periods of low volatility, which often precede breakouts.
Once a consolidation is confirmed (minimum number of bars), a green box is drawn on the chart, spanning a fixed length of bars (default 50), representing the potential breakout zone.
Breakouts are signaled only when a candle opens above the upper boundary (box top) or below the lower boundary (box bottom) of the consolidation box, ensuring a clear entry point based on price action at the open.
The script includes a volume filter, requiring volume to exceed a moving average by a specified multiplier, and a confirmation period to validate the breakout over consecutive bars.
To avoid signal clutter, only one breakout signal (up or down) is generated per box, and no further signals are issued until a new consolidation box is formed.
How to Use:
Apply the indicator to a 1-minute chart (optimized for DAX or similar volatile indices).
Adjust the "Consolidation Length" (default 5) to set the lookback period for detecting consolidation.
Modify the "Range Threshold (ATR Multiplier)" (default 2.0) to make the consolidation detection more or less strict based on market volatility.
Use "Minimum Consolidation Bars" (default 2) to set the minimum duration of a consolidation phase.
Tune "Confirmation Bars" (default 1) to require more bars to confirm the breakout.
Set "Volume MA Length" (default 5) and "Volume Multiplier" (default 1.1) to filter breakouts with insufficient volume.
Adjust "Max Box Length" (default 50) to control the duration of the breakout zone on the chart.
Look for green triangles below the chart for bullish breakouts and red triangles above for bearish breakouts, occurring when a candle opens outside the box with confirmed volume.
Originality:
This script stands out by integrating a fixed-length consolidation box with an opening-price breakout condition, combined with volume and multi-bar confirmation. Unlike traditional breakout indicators that rely solely on closing prices or simple price thresholds, this approach prioritizes the opening price and limits signals to one per cycle, reducing noise in volatile markets.
Chart Notes:
The accompanying chart displays the indicator's output with green boxes indicating consolidation zones, yellow dots marking consolidation periods, and green/red triangles for breakout signals. No additional scripts or unrelated drawings are included to ensure clarity.

London Breakout by Edwin KPurpose:
The strategy visualizes breakouts based on price action during the London session. It highlights the candles from 09:59 AM to 01:59 PM UTC+3 with different colors depending on whether the price is above or below the high/low from the 10 AM candle.
Key Parts:
Timestamps:
The code defines specific times for the 09:59 AM candle, 10:00 AM candle, and 01:59 PM UTC+3 times.
The timestamp('UTC+3', ...) function creates the timestamps for those moments.
High and Low of the 10 AM Candle:
The high and low of the 10 AM candle are captured and stored in the ten_am_high and ten_am_low variables.
Bullish and Bearish Conditions:
If the price breaks above (bullish_break) or below (bearish_break) the high or low of the 10 AM candle, respectively.
Bar Coloring:
If the conditions are met (price breaking above or below the 10 AM levels), the script colors the candles during the time frame (09:59 AM to 01:59 PM).
Green color is applied for bullish breakouts.
Red color is applied for bearish breakouts.
hector mena Breakout Trading with ATR, RSI and MA CrossTitle: Breakout Trading Strategy with ATR, RSI, and Moving Average Cross
Description (English):
This script combines key technical indicators—ATR (Average True Range), RSI (Relative Strength Index), and Moving Averages—to provide a comprehensive breakout trading strategy. It is designed to help traders identify significant breakout levels and confirm signals with momentum and trend analysis.
How It Works:
ATR for Breakout Levels:
The ATR is used to calculate dynamic breakout levels by adjusting the highest resistance and lowest support levels with a customizable multiplier. This ensures that breakout levels adapt to market volatility.
RSI for Momentum Confirmation:
The RSI identifies overbought and oversold conditions, providing an additional layer of confirmation for breakouts. A breakout accompanied by an RSI signal can indicate stronger momentum.
Moving Average Cross for Trend Validation:
Two simple moving averages (short-term and long-term) are included to validate the trend. A crossover suggests a potential change in trend, aligning with breakout signals.
Why Combine These Indicators?
The ATR ensures breakout levels are realistic and volatility-adjusted.
The RSI avoids false signals by confirming if the price has momentum during a breakout.
Moving Average crossovers add trend-following confirmation, helping traders align with market direction.
The combination provides a robust framework to filter out false signals and improve the reliability of trading decisions.
Key Features:
Breakout Levels: Upper and lower breakout levels dynamically calculated using ATR.
RSI Confirmation: Visual overbought (70) and oversold (30) levels and RSI plot.
Trend Validation: Short and long-term moving averages plotted on the chart with crossover signals.
Visual Alerts: Clear "BUY" and "SELL" labels for actionable signals.
Custom Alerts: Configurable alerts for breakouts and moving average crossovers.
How to Use It:
Adjust the parameters (ATR length, multiplier, RSI length, and moving averages) based on your trading strategy.
Look for "BUY" signals when:
Price breaks above the resistance level, and RSI indicates oversold conditions.
Moving averages cross bullishly.
Look for "SELL" signals when:
Price breaks below the support level, and RSI indicates overbought conditions.
Moving averages cross bearishly.
Use alerts for automated notifications about potential trades.

High/Low Breakout Statistical Analysis StrategyThis Pine Script strategy is designed to assist in the statistical analysis of breakout systems on a monthly, weekly, or daily timeframe. It allows the user to select whether to open a long or short position when the price breaks above or below the respective high or low for the chosen timeframe. The user can also define the holding period for each position in terms of bars.
Core Functionality:
Breakout Logic:
The strategy triggers trades based on price crossing over (for long positions) or crossing under (for short positions) the high or low of the selected period (daily, weekly, or monthly).
Timeframe Selection:
A dropdown menu enables the user to switch between the desired timeframe (monthly, weekly, or daily).
Trade Direction:
Another dropdown allows the user to select the type of trade (long or short) depending on whether the breakout occurs at the high or low of the timeframe.
Holding Period:
Once a trade is opened, it is automatically closed after a user-defined number of bars, making it useful for analyzing how breakout signals perform over short-term periods.
This strategy is intended exclusively for research and statistical purposes rather than real-time trading, helping users to assess the behavior of breakouts over different timeframes.
Relevance of Breakout Systems:
Breakout trading systems, where trades are executed when the price moves beyond a significant price level such as the high or low of a given period, have been extensively studied in financial literature for their potential predictive power.
Momentum and Trend Following:
Breakout strategies are a form of momentum-based trading, exploiting the tendency of prices to continue moving in the direction of a strong initial movement after breaching a critical support or resistance level. According to academic research, momentum strategies, including breakouts, can produce returns above average market returns when applied consistently. For example, Jegadeesh and Titman (1993) demonstrated that stocks that performed well in the past 3-12 months continued to outperform in the subsequent months, suggesting that price continuation patterns, like breakouts, hold value .
Market Efficiency Hypothesis:
While the Efficient Market Hypothesis (EMH) posits that markets are generally efficient, and it is difficult to outperform the market through technical strategies, some studies show that in less liquid markets or during specific times of market stress, breakout systems can capitalize on temporary inefficiencies. Taylor (2005) and other researchers have found instances where breakout systems can outperform the market under certain conditions.
Volatility and Breakouts:
Breakouts are often linked to periods of increased volatility, which can generate trading opportunities. Coval and Shumway (2001) found that periods of heightened volatility can make breakouts more significant, increasing the likelihood that price trends will follow the breakout direction. This correlation between volatility and breakout reliability makes it essential to study breakouts across different timeframes to assess their potential profitability .
In summary, this breakout strategy offers an empirical way to study price behavior around key support and resistance levels. It is useful for researchers and traders aiming to statistically evaluate the effectiveness and consistency of breakout signals across different timeframes, contributing to broader research on momentum and market behavior.

Simultaneous INSIDE Bar Break IndicatorSimultaneous Inside Bar Break Indicator (SIBBI) for The Strat Community
Overview:
The Simultaneous Inside Bar Break Indicator (SIBBI) is designed to help traders using The Strat methodology identify one of the most powerful breakout patterns: the Simultaneous Inside Bar Break across multiple symbols. This indicator detects when all four user-selected symbols form inside bars on the previous candle and then break those inside bars in the same direction (either bullish or bearish) on the current candle.
Inside bars represent consolidation periods where price action does not break the high or low of the previous candle. When a simultaneous break occurs across multiple symbols, this often signals a strong move in the market, making this a key actionable signal in The Strat trading strategy.
Key Features:
Multi-Symbol Analysis: You can track up to four different symbols simultaneously. By default, the indicator comes with SPY, QQQ, IWM, and DIA, but you can modify these to track any other assets or symbols.
Inside Bar Detection: The indicator checks whether all four symbols have inside bars on the previous candle. It only triggers when all symbols meet this condition, making it a highly specific and reliable signal.
Simultaneous Break Detection: Once all symbols have inside bars, the indicator waits for a breakout in the same direction across all four symbols. A simultaneous bullish break (prices breaking above the previous candle’s high) triggers a green label, while a simultaneous bearish break (prices breaking below the previous candle’s low) triggers a red label.
Dynamic Label Timeframe: The indicator dynamically adjusts the timeframe in the label based on the user’s selected timeframe. This allows traders to know precisely which timeframe the break is occurring on. If the user selects "Chart Timeframe," the indicator will evolve with the current chart's timeframe, making it more versatile.
Timeframe Flexibility: The indicator can be set to analyze any timeframe—15-minute, 30-minute, 60-minute, daily, weekly, and so on. It only works for the specific timeframe you set it to in the settings. If set to "Chart Timeframe," the label will adapt dynamically based on the timeframe you are currently viewing.
Customizable Labels: The user can choose the size of the labels (tiny, small, or normal), ensuring that the visual output is tailored to individual preferences and chart layouts.
Best Use Case:
The Simultaneous Inside Bar Break Indicator is particularly powerful when applied to multiple timeframes. Here’s how to use it for maximum impact:
Multi-Timeframe Setup: Set the indicator on various timeframes (e.g., 15-minute, 30-minute, 60-minute, and daily) across multiple charts. This allows you to monitor different timeframes and identify when lower timeframe breaks trigger potential moves on higher timeframes.
Anticipating Strong Moves: When a simultaneous inside bar break occurs on one timeframe (e.g., 30-minute), keep an eye on the higher timeframes (e.g., 60-minute or daily) to see if those timeframes also break. This stacking of inside bar breaks can signal powerful market moves.
Higher Conviction Signals: The indicator is designed to provide high-conviction signals. Since it requires all four symbols to break in the same direction simultaneously, it reduces false signals and focuses on higher probability setups, which is crucial for traders using The Strat to time their trades effectively.
How the Indicator Works:
Inside Bar Formation: The indicator first checks that all four selected symbols had inside bars in the previous bar (i.e., the current high and low are contained within the previous bar’s high and low).
Simultaneous Break Detection: After detecting inside bars, the indicator checks if all four symbols break out in the same direction—bullish (breaking above the previous bar’s high) or bearish (breaking below the previous bar’s low).
Label Display: When a simultaneous inside bar break occurs, a label is plotted on the chart—either green for a bullish break (below the candle) or red for a bearish break (above the candle). The label will display the timeframe you set in the settings (e.g., "IBSB 60" for a 60-minute break).
Chart Timeframe Option: If you prefer, you can set the indicator to evolve with the chart’s current timeframe. In this mode, the label will not show a specific timeframe but will still display the simultaneous inside bar break when it occurs.
Recommendations for Usage:
Focus on Multiple Timeframes: The Strat methodology is all about understanding the relationship between different timeframes. Use this indicator on multiple timeframes to get a better picture of potential moves.
Pair with Other Strat Techniques: This indicator is most powerful when combined with other Strat tools, such as broadening formations, timeframe continuity, and actionable signals (e.g., 2-2 reversals). The simultaneous inside bar break can help confirm or invalidate other signals.
Customize Symbols and Timeframes: Although the default symbols are SPY, QQQ, IWM, and DIA, feel free to replace them with symbols more relevant to your trading. This indicator works well across equities, indices, futures, and forex pairs.
How to Set It Up:
Select Symbols: Choose four symbols that you want to track. These can be index ETFs (like SPY and QQQ), individual stocks, or any other tradable instruments.
Set Timeframe: In the indicator’s settings, choose a specific timeframe (e.g., 15-minute, 30-minute, daily). The label will reflect the selected timeframe, making it clear which time-based break you are seeing.
Optional - Chart Timeframe Mode: If you want the indicator to adapt to the chart’s current timeframe, select the "Chart Timeframe" option in the settings. The indicator will plot the breaks without showing a specific timeframe in the label.
Customize Label Size: Depending on your chart layout and personal preference, you can adjust the size of the labels (tiny, small, or normal) in the settings.
Conclusion:
The Simultaneous Inside Bar Break Indicator is a powerful tool for traders using The Strat methodology, offering a highly specific and reliable signal that can indicate potential large market moves. By monitoring multiple symbols and timeframes, you can gain deeper insight into the market's behavior and act with greater confidence. This indicator is ideal for traders looking to catch high-conviction moves and align their trades with broader market continuity.
Note: The indicator works best when paired with multi-timeframe analysis, allowing you to see how breaks on lower timeframes might influence larger trends. For traders who prefer simplicity, setting it to the "Chart Timeframe" mode offers flexibility while maintaining the core benefits of this indicator.

1. Breakout Finder Logic: The script uses pivot points (highs and lows) to detect breakout levels. It stores these pivot points in arrays and monitors them for persistence, ensuring that the detected breakouts are significant and reliable.
2. Adaptive Moving Average (AMA): The AMA is a key component that enhances the script's responsiveness. By calculating the differences between fast and slow EMAs, the AMA adapts to changing market conditions, providing a more accurate measure of trends and potential reversals.
How to Use
• Adjustable Parameters: The script includes several user-adjustable parameters:
o Lookback Length: Defines the period over which the script calculates the highest high and lowest low for breakout detection.
o Multiplier for Adaptive MA: Adjusts the sensitivity of the adaptive moving average.
o Period for Pivots: Sets the period for detecting pivot highs and lows.
o Max Breakout Length: Specifies the maximum length for breakout consideration.
o Threshold Rate: Determines the threshold rate for breakout validation.
o Minimum Number of Tests: Sets the minimum number of tests required to validate a breakout.
o Colors and Line Style: Customize the colors and line styles for breakout levels.
Interpreting Signals
o Green Arrows: Indicate a bullish breakout signal, suggesting a potential buy opportunity.
o Red Arrows: Indicate a bearish breakout signal, suggesting a potential sell opportunity.
o Horizontal Lines: Show the breakout levels, helping to visualize support and resistance areas.
By combining traditional breakout detection with advanced adaptive moving averages, this script aims to provide traders with a robust tool for identifying and capitalizing on market breakouts.

Market Structures + ZigZag [TradingFinder] CHoCH/BOS - MSS/MSB🟣 Introduction
🔵 Market Structure
Grasping market structure entails examining market behavior. Essentially, market structure refers to the formation and progression of the market within its trends.
Market structures are generally fractal and nested, leading us to classify them into internal (minor) and external (major) structures. There are several definitions of market structure, with differing perspectives such as Smart Money and ICT offering their own interpretations.
🔵 Zig Zag
The Zigzag indicator is a lagging tool that identifies points on a price chart where significant changes occur compared to the previous wave. By connecting these points, it helps traders detect trends.
This indicator minimizes random price fluctuations, aiming to clarify the primary price trend.
Pivots are points on a price chart where the direction changes. Also known as reversal points, pivots form when supply and demand forces overpower one another.
There are various types of technical analysis pivots, which can be divided into two categories: minor pivots and major pivots, each with distinct significance in analysis.
Major Pivot : These pivots signify substantial changes in the chart's direction and occur at the end of trends. Analysts focusing on primary analysis prioritize major pivot points. In fact, most technical analysis tools are evaluated and based on major pivots.
Minor Pivot : These pivots highlight smaller, subsidiary points and directions, appearing at the end of corrections. Analysts who focus on minor pivots represent small trends. It's important to note that minor pivots are not suitable for use in primary technical tools.
Identifying Minor and Major Pivots :
Minor pivots are formed between two major pivots and do not break the opposing major pivot. (Internal Pivot)
Major pivots are those that either successfully break the opposing pivot or move beyond the previous pivot of the same type. (External Pivot)
🟣 How to Use
🔵 Identifying Break of Structure (BOS)
In a given trend, such as a downtrend, a Break of Structure occurs when the price drops below the previous low and forms a new low (LL). In an uptrend, a BOS (MSB) happens when the price rises and exceeds the last high.
To confirm a trend, at least one BOS is required. The break above or below the previous high or low must be validated by the closing of at least one candle beyond that level.
🔵 Identifying Change of Character (CHOCH)
Change of Character (CHOCH) is an essential concept in market structure analysis, indicating a trend change. In other words, a trend concludes with a CHOCH (MSS). For example, in a downtrend, the price declines with BOS.
While BOS highlights the trend's strength, a CHOCH occurs when the price rises and surpasses the last high, signaling a transition from a downtrend to an uptrend.
This does not imply immediately entering a buy trade; instead, it is prudent to wait for a BOS in the upward direction to confirm the uptrend.
Unlike BOS, confirming a CHOCH does not require a candle to close; simply breaking above or below the previous high or low with the candle's wick is sufficient. The following examples illustrate bearish and bullish CHOCH.
Terms :
Market Structure Shift = MSS
Market Structure Break = MSB
🔵 Zig Zag
Based on identifying pivots and drawing zigzag lines, you can have different uses of this indicator.
Including :
Identifying pivot types along with major and minor recognition.

Fractal Breakout Trend Following StrategyOverview
The Fractal Breakout Trend Following Strategy is a trend-following system which utilizes the Willams Fractals and Alligator to execute the long trades on the fractal's breakouts which have a high probability to be the new uptrend phase beginning. This system also uses the normalized Average True Range indicator to filter trades after a large moves, because it's more likely to see the trend continuation after a consolidation period. Strategy can execute only long trades.
Unique Features
Trend and volatility filtering system: Strategy uses Williams Alligator to filter the counter-trend fractals breakouts and normalized Average True Range to avoid the trades after large moves, when volatility is high
Configurable Trading Periods: Users can tailor the strategy to specific market windows, adapting to different market conditions.
Flexible Risk Management: Users can choose the stop-loss percent (by default = 3%) for trades, but strategy also has the dynamic stop-loss level using down fractals.
Methodology
The strategy places stop order at the last valid fractal breakout level. Validity of this fractal is defined by the Williams Alligator indicator. If at the moment of time when price breaking the last fractal price is higher than Alligator's teeth line (8 period SMA shifted 5 bars in the future) this is a valid breakout. Moreover strategy has the additional volatility filtering system using normalized ATR. It calculates the average normalized ATR for last user-defined number of bars and if this value lower than the user-defined threshold value the long trade is executed.
When trade is opened, script places the stop loss at the price higher of two levels: user defined stop-loss from the position entry price or down fractal validation level. The down fractal is valid with the rule, opposite as the up fractal validation. Price shall break to the downside the last down fractal below the Willians Alligator's teeth line.
Strategy has no fixed take profit. Exit level changes with the down fractal validation level. If price is in strong uptrend trade is going to be active until last down fractal is not valid. Strategy closes trade when price hits the down fractal validation level.
Risk Management
The strategy employs a combined approach to risk management:
It allows positions to ride the trend as long as the price continues to move favorably, aiming to capture significant price movements. It features a user-defined stop-loss parameter to mitigate risks based on individual risk tolerance. By default, this stop-loss is set to a 3% drop from the entry point, but it can be adjusted according to the trader's preferences.
Justification of Methodology
This strategy leverages Williams Fractals to open long trade when price has broken the key resistance level to the upside. This resistance level is the last up fractal and is shall be broken above the Williams Alligator's teeth line to be qualified as the valid breakout according to this strategy. The Alligator filtering increases the probability to avoid the false breakouts against the current trend.
Moreover strategy has an additional filter using Average True Range(ATR) indicator. If average value of ATR for the last user-defined number of bars is lower than user-defined threshold strategy can open the long trade according to open trade condition above. The logic here is following: we want to open trades after period of price consolidation inside the range because before and after a big move price is more likely to be in sideways, but we need a trend move to have a profit.
Another one important feature is how the exit condition is defined. On the one hand, strategy has the user-defined stop-loss (3% below the entry price by default). It's made to give users the opportunity to restrict their losses according to their risk-tolerance. On the other hand, strategy utilizes the dynamic exit level which is defined by down fractal activation. If we assume the breaking up fractal is the beginning of the uptrend, breaking down fractal can be the start of downtrend phase. We don't want to be in long trade if there is a high probability of reversal to the downside. This approach helps to not keep open trade if trend is not developing and hold it if price continues going up.

Support and Resistance Breakouts By RICHIESupport and resistance are fundamental concepts in technical analysis used to identify price levels on charts that act as barriers, preventing the price of an asset from getting pushed in a certain direction. Here’s a detailed description of each and how breakout strategies are typically used:
Support
Support is a price level where a downtrend can be expected to pause due to a concentration of demand. As the price of an asset drops, it hits a level where buyers tend to step in, causing the price to rebound.
Support Level Identification: Support levels are identified by looking at historical data where prices have repeatedly fallen to a certain level but have then rebounded.
Strength of Support: The more times an asset price hits a support level without breaking below it, the stronger that support level is considered to be.
Resistance
Resistance is a price level where an uptrend can be expected to pause due to a concentration of selling interest. As the price of an asset increases, it hits a level where sellers tend to step in, causing the price to drop.
Resistance Level Identification: Resistance levels are identified by looking at historical data where prices have repeatedly risen to a certain level but have then fallen back.
Strength of Resistance: The more times an asset price hits a resistance level without breaking above it, the stronger that resistance level is considered to be.
Breakouts
A breakout occurs when the price moves above a resistance level or below a support level with increased volume. Breakouts can be significant because they suggest a change in supply and demand dynamics, often leading to strong price movements.
Breakout Above Resistance: Indicates a bullish market sentiment. Traders often interpret this as a sign to enter a long position (buy).
Breakout Below Support: Indicates a bearish market sentiment. Traders often interpret this as a sign to enter a short position (sell).
Breakout Trading Strategies
Confirmation: Wait for a candle to close beyond the support or resistance level to confirm the breakout.
Volume: Increased volume on a breakout adds credibility, suggesting that the price move is supported by strong buying or selling interest.
Retest: Sometimes, after a breakout, the price will return to the breakout level to test it as a new support or resistance. This retest offers another entry point.
Stop-Loss: Place stop-loss orders just below the resistance (for long positions) or above the support (for short positions) to limit potential losses in case of a false breakout.
Take-Profit: Identify target levels for taking profits. These can be set based on previous support/resistance levels or using tools like Fibonacci retracements.

Opening Range & Prior Day High/Low [Gorb]Introduction:
Opening Range & Prior Day High/Low indicator is an easy to use day traders tool. This indicator automatically plots the previous days high and low, as well as drawing a box from the opening range that the user specifies in the settings. These two together can help provide an indication of market sentiment and price trends for the day. They are often used as a trading strategy for day traders.
Overview:
The Opening Range , draws a box from the high to the low of the user defined time period and is extended until the end of the trading session. Most common are the 5/15/30min opening ranges.
Prior Day High/Low , draws lines from the previous days high and low that extend across the current session. These are used as support/resistance and also a marker to see market sentiment by crossing one of these levels.
The indicator is designed for all kinds of traders, offering a simple approach to automatically plot levels for you.
Features:
All skill-level friendly presets, easy to enable with one-click
Opening Range: Allows user to choose what time the range starts and ends to measure the high & low.
Extend Range Lines: allows the user to choose when the box stops extending according to the trading session time.
Enable Opening Range Box: allows the user to choose to plot the opening range or not.
ORB Border Color: allows the user to change the box border color.
ORB Box Shade Color: allows the user to change the background of the opening range box.
ORB Line Width: allows users to chose the width of the opening range box lines.
Enable Previous Day High: allows users to enable the previous days high to be plotted.
Enable Previous Day Low: allows users to enable the previous days high to be plotted.
Previous Day High Color: allows users to choose the color for this line.
Previous Day Low Color: allows users to choose the color for this line.
All colors are changeable for the user to customize to their liking.
Usage Demonstration
In the image below, we can see a basic example of how these 3 features function.
As explained above, the opening range is customizable to meet the users needs and can be disabled with one click. Same goes for the prior day high(green) and low(red) lines. All 3 are plotted each day automatically for the user if enabled.
In the image below, we can see an example of using the opening range break and prior day high together for a trading strategy.
This is a great example of using the prior day high with the opening range to use as a day trading strategy. It provides the trader with levels to watch for price to break out from for possible trade setups.
In this next image, we can see a failed breakdown from the opening range that results in a bullish breakout.
The first move was a fake breakdown with the failed rejection on the retest of the opening range lows. This led to a breakout above the range and a confirmation bounce on the breakout retest. Price did break above the prior day high and confirmed with a retest bounce on that level as well.
In the image below, we can see how previous days levels can act as resistance to use with the opening range.
Price didn't reject the opening range low, but it did reject the prior day high for the second time. This could be used as an entry or once price breaks down out of the opening range again.
Conclusion:
We believe in providing user-friendly tools to help speed up traders technical analysis and implement easy trading strategies. The goal is to provide a user-friendly indicator to automatically draw opening ranges and previous days levels to suit the users needs and trading style.

Block-Based Trend Breakout (UTB/DTB) & S/R ZonesThis indicator is designed to detect potential trend reversals or volatility bursts by analyzing price action structured into "blocks." Its primary goal is to capture the earliest signals that a defined trend structure is weakening or breaking.
Signal Generation:
🟢 DTB (Downtrend Breakout): When a confirmed downtrend is identified (e.g., price has been falling for 2 blocks), the indicator waits for the price to break above the highest high of the last completed block in that trend. When this break occurs, it signals a potential bullish reversal with a green DTB triangle below the bar.
🔴 UTB (Uptrend Breakdown): When a confirmed uptrend is identified (e.g., price has been rising for 2 blocks), the indicator waits for the price to break below the lowest low of the last completed block. When this break occurs, it signals a potential bearish reversal with a red UTB triangle above the bar.
🛠️ Key Settings
Block Size (bars): The number of bars in each block used to analyze the trend structure. Lower values track short-term trends; higher values track long-term trends.
Trend Confirmation (steps): The minimum number of consecutive blocks required to "confirm" a trend.
Tolerance: Allowed Off-Trend Steps: The number of "noise" blocks allowed while confirming a trend.
Show Support/Resistance Zones: Toggles the histogram-based S/R zones on or off.
S/R Lookback (blocks): Determines how many blocks to look back for calculating S/R zones.
S/R Zone Width (in ATR): Sets the thickness of the S/R zones, denominated in ATRs.

Retail vs Banker Net Positions – Symmetry BreakRetail vs Banker Net Positions – Symmetry Break (Institution Focus)
Description:
This advanced indicator is a volume-proxy-based positioning tool that separates institutional vs. retail behavior using bar structure, trend-following logic, and statistical analysis. It identifies net position flows over time, detects institutional aggression spikes, and highlights symmetry breaks—those moments when institutional action diverges sharply from retail behavior. Designed for intraday to swing traders, this is a powerful tool for gauging smart money activity and retail exhaustion.
What It Does:
Separates Volume into Two Groups:
Institutional Proxy: Volume on large bars in trend direction
Retail Proxy: Volume on small or counter-trend bars
Calculates Net Positions (%):
Smooths cumulative buying vs. selling behavior for each group over time.
Highlights Symmetry Breaks:
Alerts when institutions make statistically abnormal moves while retail is quiet or doing the opposite.
Detects Extremes in Institutional Activity:
Flags major tops/bottoms in institutional positioning using swing pivots or rolling windows.
Retail Sentiment Flips:
Marks when the retail line crosses the zero line (e.g., flipping from net short to net long).
How to Use It:
Interpreting the Two Lines:
Aqua/Orange Line (Institutional Proxy):
Rising above zero = Net buying bias
Falling below zero = Net selling bias
Lime/Red Line (Retail Proxy):
Green = Retail buying; Red = Retail selling
Watch for crosses of zero for sentiment shifts
Spotting Symmetry Breaks:
Pink Circle or Background Highlight =
Institutions made a sharp, outsized move while retail was:
Quiet (low ROC), or
Moving in the opposite direction
These often precede explosive directional moves or stop hunts.
Institutional Extremes:
Marked with aqua (top) or orange (bottom) dots
Based on swing pivot logic or rolling highs/lows in institutional positioning
Optional filter: Only show extremes that coincide with a symmetry break
Settings You Can Tune:
Lookback lengths for trend, z-scores, smoothing
Z-Score thresholds to control sensitivity
Retail quiet filters to reduce false positives
Cool-down timer to avoid rapid repeat signals
Toggle visual aids like shading, markers, and threshold lines
Alerts Included:
-Retail flips (green/red)
- Institutional symmetry breaks
- Institutional extreme tops/bottoms
Strategy Tip:
Use this indicator to track institutional accumulation or distribution phases and catch asymmetric inflection points where the "smart money" acts decisively. Confluence with price structure or FVGs (Fair Value Gaps) can further enhance signal quality.
RSI Breakout Zones█ OVERVIEW
“RSI Breakout Zones” is a technical analysis tool that identifies significant zones on the chart based on the Relative Strength Index (RSI). The indicator maps overbought (OB) and oversold (OS) zones using boxes, then extends them until the next zone of the same type is detected, highlighting breakout points to aid in trade entry decisions. These zones often serve as areas of consolidation, support, or resistance.
█ CONCEPTS
The indicator identifies overbought (above 70) and oversold (below 30) zones, drawing boxes that extend until the next zone of the same type (OB for OB, OS for OS) is detected. Breakout signals are generated when the price crosses the zone boundaries, indicating potential shifts in market momentum.
Why are RSI zones important? These zones represent areas of extreme market sentiment, often leading to corrections or reversals. Overbought zones suggest potential selling pressure, while oversold zones indicate buying opportunities. After a breakout, a zone may switch roles, e.g., from support to resistance or vice versa, making it a key element in price action analysis. Larger zones, formed during high volatility, may attract price for retests due to stronger imbalances in buyer/seller dynamics. Consolidation often occurs within these zones as the market seeks equilibrium before further moves. However, in strong trends, zones may be decisively broken without immediate pullbacks, and their significance depends on their position relative to key support and resistance levels.
█ FEATURES
- RSI Zone Detection: Calculates RSI with a customizable length (default 14) and identifies overbought/oversold zones based on user-defined levels (default 70/30), drawing boxes that dynamically adjust to price action within the zone.
- Customizable Boxes: Zones extend until the next zone of the same type is detected. The indicator draws zones with adjustable colors for overbought (red) and oversold (green) areas, with options for box and zone transparency.
- Breakout Signals: Generates upward (green triangle) and downward (red triangle) breakout signals when the price crosses the top or bottom of a zone. Signals appear below or above the bar, indicating potential trade entry points.
- Midline: Automatically draws a dashed line at the midpoint of each zone, helping traders assess price behavior within the zone and potential halfway retests.
- Box Management: Option to remove outdated boxes.
- Alerts: Built-in support for alerts on breakout signals, enabling traders to receive notifications for key zone crossings.
█ HOW TO USE
Add to Chart: Apply the indicator to your TradingView chart via the Pine Editor or Indicators menu.
Configure Settings:
- RSI Settings: Adjust RSI Length (default 14), Overbought Level (default 70), and Oversold Level (default 30) to tailor zone detection sensitivity—higher lengths smooth signals for longer-term analysis.
- Box Settings: Configure colors and transparency for overbought (red) and oversold (green) zones, including box transparency (default 90) and zone transparency (default 90).
- Signal Settings: Customize breakout signal colors (green for upward, red for downward) and enable/disable keeping boxes after RSI normalization.
Interpreting Signals:
- Upward Breakout Signal: A green triangle below the bar indicates a breakout, suggesting potential bullish momentum and trend continuation or reversal.
- Downward Breakout Signal: A red triangle above the bar indicates a breakout, suggesting potential bearish momentum.
- RSI Zones: If the price re-enters a zone after a breakout, it may signal a false breakout or consolidation; persistent zones can act as future support/resistance levels. Consolidation often occurs within these zones as the market seeks equilibrium.
- Use signals alongside other technical analysis tools for confirmation, such as moving averages (to confirm trend direction), Fibonacci levels (to identify key price zones), or volume indicators (to validate breakout strength). Analyze RSI zones on higher timeframes for stronger signals due to broader market context.
█ APPLICATIONS
- Momentum Trading: Use RSI zones as overbought/oversold filters. In an uptrend, look for buying opportunities on upward breakouts, and in a downtrend, on downward breakouts. Combining with MACD crossovers, Fibonacci levels, or pivot points enhances zone significance.
- Inter-Zone Trading: Utilize breakouts from one RSI zone and hold the position until reaching the next zone, which may act as a target level or reversal point.
█ NOTES
- Test the indicator across different timeframes and markets (stocks, forex, crypto) to optimize RSI length and levels for your trading style.
- For best results, use in trending markets where RSI extremes are more predictive; in ranging markets, additional filters are recommended to reduce false signals.
- Always combine with risk management; RSI zones alone do not guarantee reversals, and false breakouts may occur in low-liquidity environments.
Candle Body Break (M/W/D/4H/1H)v5# Candle Body Break (M/W/D/4H/1H) Multi-Timeframe Indicator
This indicator identifies and plots **Candle Body Breaks** across five key timeframes: Monthly (M), Weekly (W), Daily (D), 4-Hour (4H), and 1-Hour (1H).
## Core Logic: Candle Body Break
The core concept is a break in the swing high/low defined by the body of the previous counter-trend candle(s). It focuses purely on **closing price breaks** of remembered highs/lows established by full candle bodies (close > open or close < open).
1. **Remembering the Swing:**
* After a bullish break (upward trend), the indicator waits for the first **bearish (close < open) candle** to appear. This bearish candle's high (`rememberedHigh`) and low (`rememberedLow`) are saved as the **breakout level**.
* Subsequent bearish candles that make a new low update this saved level, continuously adjusting the level to the most significant recent resistance/support established by the body's range.
2. **Executing the Break:**
* **Bull Break (Long signal):** Occurs when a **bullish candle's closing price** exceeds the last remembered bearish high (`rememberedHigh`).
* **Bear Break (Short signal):** Occurs when a **bearish candle's closing price** falls below the last remembered bullish low (`rememberedLow_Bull`).
Once a break occurs, the memory is cleared, and the indicator waits for the next counter-trend candle to establish a new level.
## Features
* **Multi-Timeframe Analysis:** Displays break lines and labels for M, W, D, 4H, and 1H timeframes on any chart.
* **Timeframe Filtering:** Break lines are only shown for timeframes **equal to or higher** than the current chart timeframe (e.g., on a 4H chart, only 4H, D, W, and M breaks are displayed).
* **Candidate Lines (Dotted Green):** Plots the current potential breakout level (the remembered high/low) that must be broken to trigger the next signal.
* **Direction Table:** A table in the top right corner summarizes the latest break direction (⇧ Up / ⇩ Down) for all five timeframes. This can be optionally limited to the 4H chart only.
* **1H Alert:** Triggers an alert when a 1-Hour break is detected.

このインジケーターは、月足（M）、週足（W）、日足（D）、4時間足（4H）、1時間足（1H）の5つの主要な時間足におけるろうそく足実体ブレイクを検出し、プロットします。
コアロジック：ろうそく足実体ブレイク
このロジックの中核は、直近の**逆行ろうそく足（カウンター・トレンド・キャンドル）**の実体によって定義されたスイングの高値/安値のブレイクです。終値が実体のレンジ外で確定することを純粋に追跡します。
スイングの記憶（Remembering the Swing）:
強気のブレイク（上昇トレンド）の後、インジケーターは最初に現れる弱気（終値＜始値）のろうそく足を待ちます。この弱気ろうそく足の高値（rememberedHigh）と安値（rememberedLow）が、ブレイクアウトレベルとして保存されます。
その後、安値を更新する弱気ろうそく足が続いた場合、この保存されたレベルが更新され、実体のレンジによって確立された最新の重要なレジスタンス/サポートにレベルが継続的に調整されます。
ブレイクの実行（Executing the Break）:
ブルブレイク（買いシグナル）: 最後に記憶された弱気ろうそく足の高値（rememberedHigh）を、強気ろうそく足の終値が上回ったときに発生します。
ベアブレイク（売りシグナル）: 最後に記憶された強気ろうそく足の安値（rememberedLow_Bull）を、弱気ろうそく足の終値が下回ったときに発生します。
一度ブレイクが発生すると、記憶されたレベルはクリアされ、インジケーターは次の逆行ろうそく足が出現し、新しいレベルを確立するのを待ちます。
機能
マルチタイムフレーム分析: 現在のチャートの時間足に関わらず、M、W、D、4H、1Hのブレイクラインとラベルを表示します。
時間足フィルタリング: ブレイクラインは、現在のチャート時間足と同じか、それよりも上位の時間足のもののみが表示されます（例：4時間足チャートでは、4H、D、W、Mのブレイクのみが表示されます）。
候補ライン（緑の点線）: 次のシグナルをトリガーするためにブレイクされる必要がある、現在の潜在的なブレイクアウトレベル（記憶された高値/安値）をプロットします。
方向テーブル: 右上隅のテーブルに、5つの全時間足の最新のブレイク方向（⇧ 上昇 / ⇩ 下降）をまとめて表示します。これは、オプションで4時間足チャートのみに表示するように制限できます。
1時間足アラート: 1時間足のブレイクが検出されたときにアラートをトリガーします。
