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.

2 Bar Master Pattern Indicator ( MTF Inside Bars ) THE 2 BAR MASTER PATTERN IS A PRICE ACTION INDICATOR
It is based off of the master pattern concepts which explains the market moving through a 3 phase cycle.
Phase 1 - Contraction
Phase 2 - Expansion
Phase 3 - Trending
THESE 3 PHASES ARE HAPPENING ON EVERY TIME FRAME AND ON EVERY ASSET CLASS.
The first phase of the cycle is the contraction phase, this is where price goes
into contraction which is measure by a simultaneous lower high / higher low.
The contraction phase can be measured with many forms of contraction methods, such as 2 bar / 3 bar and multi bar contraction detection.
The 2 bar master pattern detects inside bars, based off 2 bar candle detection, when detected it will color the candle and a value line will project out of the center.
When it identifies an inside bar it will bring a line through the centre of the inside bar which is known as a value line, these are key levels that price can either find support or resistance on these levels, or a level when broken price can breakout and take off.
MTF FUNCTIONALITY
We have coded into the logic a Multi Time Frame function so that you can have it identify any inside bar on any time frame. 2 bar inside bars work best on higher time frames such as the 4hr and above therefore with the multi time frame functionality you can set it to a higher time frame of choice and be on a lower chart timeframe where you will take your entries off of.
SHORT ENTRY EXAMPLE
LONG ENTRY EXAMPLE
In the example above its set to the weekly chart as the time frame to detect the 2 bar master patterns, and the timeframe for entry is the 4hr time frame, this will change depending on your trading style and timeframes you like to trade on.
2 BAR MASTER PATTERNS CAN BE USED FOR REVERSALS AND CONTINUATION TRADING.
CONTINUATION INSIDE BAR TRADING
When you have a inside bar formed on a higher time frame, you mark the high and low of the inside bar, and depending on the direction of the trend - if on a up trend and it breaks the high of the inside bar is an long entry - and if its on a downtrend and the low of the inside bar is broken thats the set up for a short entry.
REVERSAL INSIDE BAR TRADING
When you have an inside bar forming at the bottom or top of a range or key level, this can be a sign of weakness and a potential area where price will reverse in the opposite direction.
2 BAR MASTER PATTERN INSIDE BARS EITHER SHOW STRENGHTH OR WEAKNESS OF A TREND
If combined in combination with the higher time frame trend direction and the master patten concepts principles, you can find amazing entries.
Best place to look for long entries on a confirmed uptrend is when price is under the value lines
Best place to look for short entries on a confirmed downtrend is when price is above the value lines
Once you understand that the market is moving in this 3 phase cycle and become adept and identifying the 1st phase which is the contraction phase, it can open the door to a new way of percieving the market and making sense of the seemingly randomness of how it moves.
P.I.B. System (Pin Bar | Inside Bar) // AlgoFyreThe "P.I.B. System (Pin Bar | Inside Bar)" identifies bullish and bearish pin bars and inside bars on a price chart. It highlights potential market reversals by plotting labels and colorizing bars, providing traders with visual cues for better decision-making.
Description
The "P.I.B. System (Pin Bar | Inside Bar)" script is designed to help traders identify potential reversal points in the market by detecting bullish and bearish pin bars and inside bars. A pin bar is a candlestick pattern that indicates a potential reversal, characterized by a small body and a long wick. Inside bars are candlestick patterns where the current bar's high and low are within the previous bar's range, indicating potential consolidation before a breakout.
This script allows customization of various parameters to fine-tune the identification of pin bars and inside bars. When a pin bar or an inside bar is detected, the script plots a label on the chart and colorizes the bars to highlight these patterns. This tool is useful for traders looking to identify potential reversal points and make informed trading decisions.
Explanation of All Options
Pin-Wick Size Ratio Minimum Value : The minimum ratio of the wick size to the total candle size for a pin bar to be considered valid. Default is 0.66.
Candle Body Size Ratio Maximum Value : The maximum ratio of the body size to the total candle size for a pin bar to be considered valid. Default is 0.4.
Handle-Wick Wick Size Ratio Maximum Value : The maximum ratio of the opposite wick size to the total candle size for a pin bar to be considered valid. Default is 0.4.
Filter Out Small Candles : Option to filter out small candles based on the previous candle's size. Default is true.
Small Candle Size Ratio : The ratio used to determine if a candle is considered small compared to the previous candle. Default is 2.0.
Identify Inside Bars : Option to identify inside bars following a pin bar. Default is true.
Show Only P.I.B. : Option to show only the bars where a pin bar is followed by an inside bar. Default is true.
Hide Horizontal Rays : Option to hide horizontal rays drawn from the last identified pin bars. Default is false.
How to Use
To use this script, add it to your chart. Customize the input parameters to match your trading strategy. The script will automatically identify and highlight bullish and bearish pin bars and inside bars on the chart. Use the visual cues provided by the labels and colorized bars to make informed trading decisions.
Chained Inside BarsThis script identifies consecutive inside bars by referencing only the most recent non-inside bar, so it avoids excessive lookback. An “inside” bar means its high is lower than the reference bar’s high, and its low is higher than the reference bar’s low. If the current bar is inside, it’s colored white; once price breaks outside, the script updates that new bar as the next reference.
Key Points
• Bars are compared against the last non-inside bar, chaining consecutive inside bars off that same reference bar.
• Inside bars are highlighted in white (non-inside bars retain default chart colors).
• Includes an alert condition for when a new inside bar forms.
• Prevents large dynamic indexing, making it more stable and efficient.
Use this indicator to quickly spot consecutive inside-bar formations without needing to track every single bar-to-bar relationship.

Hodie Smart Inside BarThe Hodie Smart Inside Bar indicator automatically detects and visually highlights inside bars — candles fully contained within the range of the previous (parent) candle.
How the indicator works:
Inside Bar Identification:
The indicator analyzes each candle and checks if its high is lower than the previous candle’s high, and its low is higher than the previous candle’s low. If this condition is met, the candle is considered an inside bar.
Size Filtering:
To filter out small and insignificant consolidations, the indicator compares the size of the parent candle’s range to the inside bar’s range. Only if the parent candle is significantly larger (2 times or more — adjustable parameter), the inside bar is considered significant.
Zone Drawing:
For each detected inside bar, the indicator draws a rectangular zone bounded by the parent candle’s high and low. This zone automatically extends to the right as new bars appear until the price moves outside the parent candle’s range.
Zone Completion:
Once the price closes above the parent candle’s high or below its low, the zone is considered complete and stops extending.
Visual Aids:
If enabled, the indicator can shade the background of the current inside bar for additional visual emphasis.
A label with the text "IB" appears above the inside bar candle on the chart for easier identification.
Alerts:
Supports alerts when a new inside bar forms.
Alerts help traders notice important signals promptly.
To activate, create an alert on the indicator with the condition “New Inside Bar”.
Benefits of the Indicator:
Inside bars often signal consolidation and potential liquidity accumulation, which may be followed by a strong impulsive breakout. This indicator helps traders quickly identify consolidation zones and prepare for possible price moves.

This indicator is helpful for traders who want to focus on clean, easy-to-spot patterns and trade based on market conditions near the New Week Open Gap (NWOG). The tiny dots ensure that only relevant signals are displayed without any distractions.
SITR Inside Candle + Inside Bar Finder📈 How Traders Use It
- Bullish Setup: Inside Bar forms after a strong bullish Mother Candle. A breakout above the Inside Bar’s high signals continuation.
- Bearish Setup: Inside Bar forms after a strong bearish Mother Candle. A breakout below the Inside Bar’s low signals continuation.
- Reversal Setup: Inside Bar forms after exhaustion or near key support/resistance. Breakout in the opposite direction signals reversal.
🧭 Why It Matters
- Inside Bars represent compression — price is coiling within a tight range.
- Breakouts from Inside Bars often lead to explosive moves.
- The Mother Candle provides context — its size and direction help interpret the breakout’s strength.
🧪 Example
Imagine this sequence:
- A large bullish candle (Mother Candle)
- A small candle entirely within its range (Inside Bar)
- Price breaks above the Inside Bar’s high → Bullish SITR signal

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.
Bollinger Bands Inside barthe indicator name is Bollinger Band inside bar because it uses Bollinger Band and inside bar to take counter-trend positions in the market. whenever this pattern is formed then it can be used to take an entry into the market. the candlestick pattern recognizes 3 candle candlestick. first the mother bar i.e. the medium to the big size candle that intersects with the upper and the lower levels of the Bollinger band. the second candle should be an inside bar i.e. the high and low of the current bar should be less than the previous bar. finally, the last bar who's low should be less than the mother bar in case of the mother bar is at upper levels and if the mother bar is at lower levels then the candle's high should be more than the mother bar. the stop-loss should be high and low of the mother bar respectively. entry should be taken as soon as the low and high of the mother bar is taken out respectively. target should be 1:1 or 20 sma or lower Bollinger band in case the entry is taken from the top. works best if there is a trend and the market takes a pullback and this pattern is formed.
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.
4 SMAs & Inside Bar (Colored)SMAs and Inside Bar strategy is very common as far as Technical analysis is concern. This script is a combination of 10-20-50-200 SMA and Inside Bar Candle Identification.
SMA Crossover:
4 SMAs (10, 20, 50 & 200) are combined here in one single indicator.
Crossover signal for Buy as "B" will be shown in the chart if SMA 10 is above 20 & 50 and SMA 20 is above 50.
Crossover signal for Sell as "S" will be shown in the chart if SMA 10 is below 20 & 50 and SMA 20 is below 50.
Inside Bar Identification:
This is to simply identify if there is a inside bar candle. The logic is very simple - High of the previous candle should be higher than current candle and low of the previous candle should be lower than the current candle.
If the previous candle is red, the following candle would be Yellow - which may give some bullish view in most of the cases but not always
If the previous candle is green, the following candle would be Black - which may give some bearish view in most of the cases but not always
Be Cautious when you see alternate yellow and black candle, it may give move on the both side

Double Inside BarThis indicator provides a statistical report on the Double Inside Bar pattern. Based on the chart's bars, it can improve your edge on any markets and timeframes.
A Double Inside Bar refers to a contraction where price is consolidating while making consecutive lower highs and a higher lows.
The report is broken down into the different following sections: retracement , invalidation , continuation and breakout .
Each of them provides hindsights about the pattern price behavior and brings answers to questions such as: How often does price retrace? Does the pattern often invalidate? If it doesn't then does it break in the pattern's direction? How far does price go? What are the odds of a false breakout?
While there are many ways to make use of the metrics, my favorite use case is for developing directional and daily/weekly biases while refining my stop/entry/target positioning.
