Three-Bar Inside Bar PaternAuthor: Johnan Prathap TASC March 2011
The typical inside bar two-bar view indicates minimal activity in a market. It is defined as a bar (or series of bars) that is completely within the range of the preceding bar; that is, it has a higher low and lower high than the bar immediately before it. Some traders consider a bar an inside bar if the high and low are equal to the previous bar or where there are several consecutive bars within the range of a previous bar.
Many analysts tend to view inside bars as an indication of declining market activity, or possibly a prelude to a large movement in either direction.

Live Inside Bar ColoringDescription
This script colors the current bar if it is inside the prior bar's high and low. Inside is defined as ≤ the high, and ≥ the low of the prior bar.
Utility
This gives a quick visual indication if the current bar is inside. This can indicate a choppier market. By definition, an inside bar is consolidating and not trending.
Function
Colors distinguish if the current price is above the opening price of the inside bar on a given timeframe. If you do not want to distinguish this, you can set both colors the same.

7 Inside Bars with Full Range Box (15m)his indicator detects periods of extreme price compression by identifying 7 consecutive inside bars on the 15-minute timeframe. An inside bar is a candle that forms within the high and low of the previous candle. When 7 such bars occur in a row, it's a strong signal of market indecision and potential breakout.
What it does:
Detects if the last 7 candles are all inside the range of the 8th candle (the outer bar).
Highlights the consolidation zone by drawing a fuchsia-colored box from the high to low of the outer candle.
Marks the final candle in the sequence with a small "7IN" label below the bar.
This setup can help traders spot high-probability breakout zones and prepare for potential volatility after extended consolidation.
🔍 Best Used For:
Breakout trading
Volatility expansion strategies
Trade setups following tight consolidation
Bolingger Bands + Inside Bar BoxesBollinger Bands are a technical analysis tool consist of three bands—an upper, middle, and lower band—that are used to spotlight extreme short-term prices in a security. The upper band represents overbought territory, while the lower band can show you when a security is oversold. Most technicians will use Bollinger Bands® in conjunction with other analysis tools to get a better picture of the current state of a market or security.
An Inside Bar is a two-bar price action trading strategy in which the inside bar is smaller and within the high to low range of the prior bar. Inside bars show a period of consolidation in a market. They often form following a strong move in a market, as it ‘pauses’ to consolidate before making its next move. However, they can also form at market turning points and act as reversal signals from key support or resistance levels.

Odin's Inside Bar IndicatorA simple indicator that identifies "inside bars" by painting them blue.
An inside candle is a candle that has a lower high and higher low than the previous candle.
I like to use it on the daily chart to find areas of price compression that lead to a breakout.
The price then often trends in the direction of the breakout.
Especially powerful when combined with other market structure analysis.

Elite By Ashu4750Inside Bar Detection:
The script identifies inside bars, which are candles where the high is lower and the low is higher than the previous bar. It tracks the high and low of the mother candle (the candle preceding the inside bars) and plots the ranges on the chart using lines and labels.
Exponential Moving Averages (EMA):
Three EMAs are calculated and plotted (with default periods of 9, 21, and 50). This is a classic trend-following technique used to smooth price data and identify the direction of the market.
Bollinger Bands (BB):
The script includes a Bollinger Band calculation using the simple moving average (SMA) with a standard deviation multiplier. The bands help visualize volatility and potential overbought or oversold conditions.
The user can configure settings like the length of the SMA and the multiplier for the upper and lower bands.
Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP):
The VWAP is plotted on the chart and reset based on user-defined timeframes (e.g., session, week, month). VWAP is a popular indicator for institutional trading, as it shows the average price weighted by volume and can act as support or resistance.
Crossover Signals (Buy/Sell):
A combination of crossovers between VWAP, EMAs, and Bollinger Bands triggers buy and sell signals. Specifically:
Buy signal is generated when VWAP crosses over the 9 EMA, the close crosses over the Bollinger Band line, and VWAP crosses over the Bollinger Band.
Sell signal is triggered when VWAP crosses under the 9 EMA, and similar conditions exist for the other indicators.
These signals are plotted with a green "Buy" or red "Sell" marker below the bars, and alerts are set up for both buying and selling.
Additional Bollinger Band Configuration:
The script provides more flexibility in Bollinger Bands by allowing the user to select between SMA, EMA, or SMMA for the moving average.
The user can also choose the standard deviation multiplier and whether to display the bands.
Alerts:
Buy and sell conditions are linked to alert conditions, allowing the user to be notified when a signal is triggered, based on the defined crossover logic.
Technical Breakdown:
Inside Bar Logic: Tracks inside bars and plots lines representing the high and low of the mother candle. The line and label functions are used to draw these on the chart, which provides a visual representation of the range.
EMA and VWAP Crossovers:
The 9, 21, and 50-period EMAs are calculated and used in crossover logic with VWAP. Crossovers between VWAP and EMAs are a common method for identifying potential trend changes.
Bollinger Bands:
The Bollinger Band component allows for volatility analysis by calculating the upper and lower bands based on the moving average's standard deviation.
Alert System:
Alerts are set for crossover signals, allowing for real-time notifications of potential buy and sell opportunities.
Visualization:
The script plots the EMAs, VWAP, and Bollinger Bands on the price chart. It highlights inside bar patterns and displays buy/sell markers on the chart when the specified conditions are met. These visual cues make it easier to follow the market’s movements and spot trading opportunities.
Customizability:
The script is highly customizable with inputs for:
EMA periods.
VWAP settings.
Bollinger Band parameters (moving average type, length, standard deviation).
Candle color options for inside bars.
In this traders looking for multiple indicators to analyze market trends, volatility, and price action.
