Range Action Verification Index (RAVI) The indicator represents the relative convergence/divergence of the moving
averages of the financial asset, increased a hundred times. It is based on
a different principle than the ADX. Chande suggests a 13-week SMA as the
basis for the indicator. It represents the quarterly (3 months = 65 working days)
sentiments of the market participants concerning prices. The short moving average
comprises 10% of the one and is rounded to seven.

Predictive Ranges [LuxAlgo]The Predictive Ranges indicator aims to efficiently predict future trading ranges in real-time, providing multiple effective support & resistance levels as well as indications of the current trend direction.
Predictive Ranges was a premium feature originally released by LuxAlgo in 2020.
The feature was discontinued & made legacy, however, due to its popularity and reproduction attempts, we deemed it necessary to release it open source to the community.
🔶 USAGE
The primary purpose of this indicator is to provide potential support & resistance levels on the chart by estimating future trading ranges.
When the price reaches one of the upper/lower levels of the Predictive Ranges we can expect the price to reverse.
If the price exits the predicted range, new levels are given in real-time & they do not repaint. Higher "Factor" values allow returning longer term and wider ranges less susceptible to be exited.
🔹 Estimating Trend Directions
Users are able to easily estimate trend directions by looking at the central levels of the predictive ranges, which represent an estimate of the price central tendency.
If this central level increases it means the price is up-trending, if it is decreasing price is down-trending.
🔶 SETTINGS
Length: ATR Length used for the indicator calculation. Higher values will tend to return ranges of equal width.
Factor: Control the ranges width. Higher values will return less frequent ranges, each having a higher width.
Timeframe: Indicator timeframe output.
Source: Input source of the indicator. It is recommended to use input sources on the same scale as the price.

Custom Range Creator + Normalized Oscillators (Obv, Rsi, Mfi) Hello Traders!
Custom Range Creator is a specialized trading tool designed for traders who incorporate range analysis into their trading strategy.
Once you set the desired number of past candles or provide a manual input, the indicator will automatically draw a range for you. This unique feature allows you to customize the range based on the highest and lowest points within a specified number of bars, known as the "Dynamic Range." Furthermore, you have the flexibility to define up to three additional ranges manually using custom inputs. The lines and labels associated with these ranges can be fully customized in terms of style, color, and width to align with your personal preferences.
Dynamic Range Capabilities:
The indicator automatically generates a range by default, identifying the highest and lowest points within the last 200 bars. However, you have the ability to define the number of bars back by adjusting the setting in the menu. Moreover you can define the range based on either the wicks or the bodies of the candles.
The range includes the following components:
☀ Range High: The highest price point within the selected number of bars in the past
☀ Range Low: The lowest price point within the selected number of bars in the past
☀ Range Mid-Point: The calculated middle value between the Range High and Range Low
☀ First Quartile (Q1): The midpoint between the Range Low and the Range Mid-Point, effectively identifying the 25% level within the range
☀ Third Quartile (Q3): The midpoint between the Range Mid-Point and the Range High, identifying the 75% level within the range
By incorporating these critical levels within a price range, our Dynamic Range provides you with a comprehensive view of how the market evolves, enabling you to make more informed trading decisions.
Manual Ranges Capabilities:
In addition to the Dynamic Range, you can manually define up to three more ranges. By specifying your desired high and low price values as inputs, the system automatically draws the range based on your inputs. Once drawn, you can further adjust the range using the bar offset option, which allows you to shift the entire range backward or forward by a specified number of bars.
Each manually defined range includes the following components:
☀ Range High: Your user-defined highest price point
☀ Range Low: Your user-defined lowest price point
☀ Range Mid-Point: The calculated middle value between the Range High and Range Low
☀ First Quartile (Q1): The midpoint between the Range Low and the Range Mid-Point, identifying the 25% level within the range
☀ Third Quartile (Q3): The midpoint between the Range Mid-Point and the Range High, identifying the 75% level within the range
This allows you to precisely define your desired price range and visually represent it on the chart. The customizable manual ranges provide you with a powerful tool for analyzing price dynamics and identifying potential support and resistance levels.
Both Dynamic Range and Manual Ranges Capabilities:
a) Timeframe-Adaptive: This indicator dynamically adjusts to your selected timeframe. Whether you are a day trader or a long-term investor, this tool adapts to meet your needs.
b) Complete Customization: You have the flexibility to customize every aspect of "Custom Range Indicator". You can modify the color, style, and width of each of the five lines to seamlessly integrate them into your chart setup. Choose from various line styles, including solid, dashed, or dotted, and select colors that suit your visual preferences. Additionally, you can customize the color and text of the labels. Additionally, you can utilize the bar offset option to fine-tune the placement of the range within your analysis.
c) Hide Lines and Labels: You have the option to hide each line or label of the range individually, or hide the entire range with labels or without labels. This customization feature allows you to focus on specific aspects of the chart and declutter the visual representation of the ranges when needed.
Normalized Oscillators
Normalization is a process applied in data handling and statistics, and in the context of trading indicators, it can be incredibly useful. Trading indicators such as Volume, the Relative Strength Index (RSI), the Money Flow Index (MFI), and On Balance Volume (OBV), often vary in their range and scale.
Normalization adjusts these values to fit within a specific range, making different indicators directly comparable and aiding in the interpretation of their relationship and impact on price action. This can offer additional insights for traders, making it easier to identify trends, patterns, and potential trading signals across different indicators.
This indicator offers a selection of three oscillators to normalize and Volume Data:
☀Volume: The amount of a particular asset that is traded within a particular period.
☀Relative Strength Index (RSI): A momentum oscillator that measures the speed and change of price movements. It is typically used to identify overbought or oversold conditions in a market.
☀Money Flow Index (MFI): A momentum indicator that uses price and volume data to identify overbought or oversold signals in an asset.
☀On Balance Volume (OBV): A technical trading momentum indicator that uses volume flow to predict changes in price. It does this by cumulatively adding volume on days when the price increases, and subtracting volume on days when the price decreases.
This script also offers aesthetic customizations for the plot, which can enhance readability and visual appeal:
✔"Plot Color": This input lets users select the color of the plotted line on the chart, allowing for personalization and better visual differentiation when multiple indicators are used.
✔"Plot Width": Users can also adjust the thickness of the plotted line, enhancing visibility based on individual preference or screen resolution.
Why is useful the Normalization?
Normalization plays a crucial role in trading as it helps bring together diverse sets of information to support more informed decision-making. For instance, observing the correlation between the price chart and oscillators like On Balance Volume (OBV) near range levels can provide valuable insights.
Consider this example using a daily (1D) Ethereum (ETH) chart:
We observe that the price is at a Range Quarter, making a higher high while the OBV makes a higher low. This scenario presents a significant degree of confluence. The price is at a critical range level and there is a bearish divergence between the OBV and the price. Such confluence often indicates a potential shift in market dynamics, and as observed, the price trends lower subsequently.
Below is the same scenario represented on a linear chart, providing a clearer visualization:
Normalization enables us to make these comparisons more accurately, ultimately leading to more reliable trading signals and better trading outcomes. By adjusting the scale of various indicators to a standard range, traders can directly compare and correlate them to price action, making it easier to spot trends, divergences, and other key market patterns.
Keep attention!
It is important to note that no trading indicator or strategy is foolproof, and there is always a risk of losses in trading. While this indicator may provide useful information for making conclusions, it should not be used as the sole basis for making trading decisions. Traders should always use proper risk management techniques and consider multiple factors when making trading decisions.
mrD-Smart RangesmrD-Smart Ranges aims to offer a complete strategy based on Order Blocks. Ranges signals based on order volume are highlighted, from which smart ranges are suggested to provide potential entries.
This script also includes warnings for each signal marked.
🔶 SETTINGS

Show Failed Buy Sell: Allows the user to display the Signals.
Show HTF Box: Allows the user to display a higher or lower timeframe Order Blocks.
🔶 DETAILS
Order blocks are formed after a slight bearish order block, these can provide an opportunity to change polarity, thus acting as a potential support/resistance level.
A retest/retrace on the order block, combined with order volume between the current timeframe and from the higher timeframe will establish the conditions for smart ranges are suggested to provide potential entries.
🔶 USAGE
mrD-Smart Ranges aims to provide users with a minimalistic screen next to the optimal ranges to keep in mind to find trading setups as shown below.
Here we can see a suggested Sell range and display a label to confirm this range
Signal(s) that can be used for potential entries only during range retest are order blocks.
Users can search for more potential entry ranges based on larger timeframes in the settings: High Timeframe
In the image above, we can see that the price has generated potential orange and bearish entry signals. A confirmation signal with a red label is displayed on the chart when the price retests the Sell range.
Note: While range retests can still work well if they occur later in price action, it's best to look for signals only when price retests the range at the outset rather than retesting it. second price.
The logic of generating signal ranges using different rules is described below:
- Define order blocks in the current timeframe.
- Define the order blocks with the largest volume in the current timeframe.
- Define order blocks in larger timeframes in High Timeframe settings
- Define order blocks with the largest volume in larger timeframes in High Timeframe settings
Entry Range: The combination of the highest volume order blocks in the current timeframe and the highest volume order blocks in the larger timeframe.

Consolidation and Range PatternHello Traders!
The TRN Consolidation and Range Pattern indicator utilizes a unique swing-based pattern recognition to pinpoint consolidation zones in real-time with unparalleled precision. The rectangle pattern, also known as a trading range or a consolidation pattern, is characterized by horizontal lines that act as support and resistance levels, creating a rectangular shape.
The value of this indicator is to support traders to easily identify consolidations and ranges. The special swing-based pattern recognition and the numerous built-in premium features make this indicator unique. Below, you'll find a list of these features.
Feature List
Real-time consolidation/range detection
Visualization of entry, stop-loss and take-profit levels
Pattern performance statistics
Calculation of risk rewards ratio
Risk Management
Breakout alerts
Customizable pattern size and accuracy
Customizable look and feel
The trader saves a lot of time scanning the markets for consolidation patterns, since everything is done automatically for the trader: Finding the consolidation, looking and alerting for a breakout, computing the entry, stop loss and take profit levels as well as handling the risk management and computing the optimal order quantity. Now, we describe how a combination of these features enhances the trading performance of confirmed consolidation patterns.
How to Trade with the TRN Consolidation and Range Pattern
Identify the Pattern
Add the TRN Consolidation and Range Pattern to your chart and look for the pattern on the asset and timeframe of your choice. The pattern is detected in real-time. If the pattern develops further in the next bars, then the indicator updates the consolidation zone until a breakout is confirmed.
You can also use the built-in alerts to easily get notified when a pattern occurs. In the indicator settings in the "Alerts" section you can choose whether you want to get notified when a pattern is in the making (Pattern active), confirms a breakout to the upside (B/O Up Confirmed) or confirms a breakout to the downside (B/O Down Confirmed). By selecting the "Unconfirmed" option, you will receive notifications when a pattern breakout occurs, even if it is not yet confirmed. This allows you to stay informed about potential breakout opportunities that are still awaiting confirmation.
Check Pattern Statistics
The pattern statistics make it easy for you to see how successful a pattern is on the asset and timeframe you are watching. You should always check them out before entering a trade. The chart displays the statistics in the upper right corner. These statistics are categorized into two sections: "long" for patterns with an upward breakout and "short" for patterns with a downward breakout.
In the initial columns, labeled as "short" and "long", the identified breakouts are further divided based on whether the risk-reward ratio (R) is below a specified value (< x) or equal to/greater than the specified value (>= x). The following columns represent the count of the events:
1. Occ. (Occurrence) categorized according to the values of R from the first column
2. TP1, TP2, TP3 (Take Profit) - targets 1, 2 and 3
3. SL (Stop Loss)
4. T/O (Time Out) - neither stop loss or targets where hit in a certain amount of time
Breakout – Entry, Stop Loss and Targets
The indicator automatically displays the entry price line (EP) in grey et the point where the price breaks through the resistance or support levels, indicating that the consolidation period is over. Once a breakout has been confirmed, place a buy order near the EP level for a long position, or a sell order for a short position. Set your stop-loss at the price level of the red stop-loss line (SL) and set your take-profits at the price level of the green take-profit-lines (TP1, TP2, TP3). Note that your risk-reward ratio (R) was calculated based on TP1.
Risk Management
The TRN Consolidation and Range Pattern comes with a built-in risk management feature. Just go to the settings and scroll down to the section "Risk Management".
Here you can enter your Account Size and the percentage you want to Risk when you enter a position after a pattern breakout.
In the "Trade Management" section, you have the option to define the minimum accepted risk-reward ratio for confirmed rectangles. This means that breakouts of patterns failing to meet the minimum risk-reward ratio will not be considered as confirmed signals.
If a breakout gets confirmed, the indicator automatically calculates the position size (Quantity). You can read the quantity from the gray entry point line (EP), which is located to the right of the risk-reward ratio (R).
Customization and Settings
The indicator can scan for smaller and larger patterns at the same time. Adjust the consolidation sizes in the indicator settings to align them with your preferences. A larger size results in larger consolidations. Depending on the asset class, the market or the market phase, different sizes can be used for the consolidation detection.
To detect more patterns, increase the tolerance level, even though it may result in lower accuracy. However, be mindful that a higher tolerance level may result in more patterns hitting their stop-loss. Look for a tolerance level that leads to favorable statistics and focus on trading patterns with a proven performance history.
Finally, you have the flexibility to customize various visual elements, such as the color of the pattern and whether to display values like price, target, or risk-reward ratio on your chart. You can also choose where these values appear.
Computation Details
The real-time detection of the consolidations and ranges utilizes a unique swing-based pattern recognition. The difference to other swing-based computations is that the pivot points are identified without a look-ahead value. The result is a faster and better real-time detection. Furthermore, the detection of equal lows or highs which form a support or resistance level is based on a dynamic volatility measurement similar to the ATR. The tolerance level unites several internal parameters into one and results in a user-friendly setting.

BB Session RangesBB Session Ranges Indicator
Overview
The Bender Bot Session Ranges indicator is a powerful tool for traders who want to visualize and analyze important market sessions throughout the trading day. This indicator identifies and tracks price ranges during specific time periods, helping you spot potential trading opportunities based on session breakouts, retests, and range comparisons.
Key Features
• Multiple Session Tracking: Monitor up to 6 different time-based ranges simultaneously (pre-configured for NY AM Open, NY PM Open, Lunch, Premarket, Midnight Open, and a custom session).
• Range Visualization: Clearly displays high and low boundaries for each session with customizable colors and line styles.
• Historical Comparison: Tracks and displays the average size of ranges over time, helping you identify when current ranges are larger or smaller than typical.
• Flexible Time Settings: Easily configure exact session times based on your trading schedule and preferred markets.
• Range Extension Options: Extend range boundaries by bars, days, or weeks to track the longer-term influence of session ranges.
• Sidecar Information Display: Optional labels show range details, including size, percentage of average, and dollar value.
How It Works
The indicator identifies specific time-based sessions (for example, the first 5 minutes of the NY market open) and tracks the high and low prices established during these periods. Once a session is complete, the range boundaries are plotted on your chart and can be extended for further analysis. The indicator calculates the current range size and compares it to historical averages, giving you context for the day’s market behavior.
Sidecar Functionality
The sidecar feature is a key aspect of this indicator that helps keep your charts clean and organized. Instead of cluttering your price action with labels and annotations directly on the ranges, the sidecar system:
• Creates a dedicated information panel offset from the price action.
• Connects to ranges with discreet connecting lines.
• Displays key statistics like range size, dollar value, and percentage of average.
• Can be positioned at custom distances from the main chart (measured in bars).
• Allows you to see important data without interfering with your price analysis.
• Can be completely disabled when you prefer minimal chart elements.
• Helps maintain visual clarity even when tracking multiple sessions simultaneously.
This design philosophy puts trader experience first by separating information display from price action analysis, giving you the best of both worlds: clean charts and detailed information.
Setup Guide
1. Choose Your Sessions: Enable or disable each of the six available ranges by setting the Max Ranges to Plot parameter (use 0 to disable a range).
2. Configure Session Times: Set exact times for each range using standard 24-hour format (for example, 0930-0935 for 9:30-9:35 AM).
3. Customize Display: Select colors, line widths, and information display options for each range.
4. Set Extension Parameters: Choose how far to extend range lines (by a number of bars, days, or weeks, or select Always for continuous extension).
5. Configure Sidecar Labels: Set the offset for the information displays (use 0 to disable sidecar labels entirely).
Trading Applications
• Identify potential support and resistance levels based on session highs and lows.
• Compare current session ranges to historical averages to gauge volatility.
• Look for breakouts from established session ranges.
• Use range extensions to anticipate potential price targets.
• Monitor multiple session ranges to identify pattern correlations.
Advanced Usage
The indicator includes fields that help you assess range size relative to past performance, including dollar value calculations. This can be particularly useful for position sizing and risk management when trading breakouts from these ranges.
Future Development
We’re actively working on expanding this indicator to include robust strategy and alert functionality. This will allow traders to:
• Backtest trading strategies based on session range breakouts and retests.
• Customize entry, exit, and risk management parameters.
• Receive real-time alerts when price interacts with significant range levels.
• Set conditional alerts based on range size compared to historical averages.
• Automate trading decisions based on your specific session-based criteria.
If these strategy and alert features would be valuable for your trading, please let us know in the comments. Your feedback directly influences our development priorities and helps us create tools that best serve the trading community.
Notes
• All times are based on the America/New_York timezone.
• The indicator dynamically adjusts to different timeframes, providing consistent results whether you’re viewing 1-minute or daily charts.
• Range calculations are based on the highs and lows established during the defined sessions.
Customizable Days Range HighlighterThis Pine Script highlights ranges where consecutive green candles (bullish candles) form a price move within a specified percentage range.
It draws a visual box to represent this move, with the ability to customize both the percentage range and the number of consecutive green candles required to trigger the highlight.
The script calculates the range based on the low to close of the candles, allowing you to focus on the body of the candle (excluding wicks).
Key Features:
Customizable Percentage Range: Set a range (from and to) for the percentage price move between the lowest low and the close of the candle. This enables you to target specific price moves based on your trading strategy.
Consecutive Green Candle Range: Highlight moves only after a specific number of consecutive green candles. You can define the minimum and maximum number of green candles (days) that must be present for the range to be considered valid.
Wick Option: Choose whether to include wicks in the price move calculation or focus purely on the low to close of each green candle (body of the candle).
Visual Highlights: When a valid range is identified, the script draws a green box around the price move and labels it with the calculated percentage move. This helps you visually spot significant bullish price moves.
Parameters:
Percentage Move From: Minimum percentage move between the low and close of the candle for the range to be highlighted.
Percentage Move To: Maximum percentage move for the range to be considered valid.
Minimum and Maximum Green Candles: Set the minimum and maximum number of consecutive green candles (bullish candles) to trigger the range highlight.
Include Wicks: Choose whether to include the candle wicks in the percentage calculation or focus on the body (low to close).
How It Works:
The script tracks consecutive green candles and calculates the range from the low to close of each green candle.
When a valid range is found, where the price move falls within the defined percentage range and the consecutive green candles are within the specified days range, a box is drawn around the price move.
A label is also placed on the chart, showing the percentage move, to help you quickly identify potentially significant price movements.
This tool is ideal for traders who are looking for specific bullish moves over a series of green candles and want to visually identify those opportunities based on price movement and percentage change.
PhantomFlow RangeDetectorPhantomFlow RangeDetector analyzes the current price action of the market and draws ranges depending on the minimum number of bars in the zone of one candle you specify. Each range is colored depending on the closing direction of the candle outside this range. Accordingly, in trend trading, it is advisable to look for long trades from the green zones, and short trades from the red zones (with standard color settings).
If you have a basic understanding of the market context, you can consider such zones in a mirror retest to find trades with higher RR.
EMAflowPRO -Ranges-DISCLAIMER: Always, please keep in mind that market conditions change, past results cannot guarantee the same results in the future.
EMAflowPRO - Ranges-
EMAflowPRO ranges indicator will detect key movements in the market that fit certain conditions and based on that create key tradable zones by providing dynamic and static range levels.
Before reading further please take a look at the indicator values names on the right in the main chart above - these names are linked to the content below when we talk about range structure. The examples included in charts are linked to the area we're discussing (if something was said - most likely closest chart demonstrates it - Also arrows present entries; can be limit or can be market buy/sell in to the wicks.)
Let's find out what indicator does...
Static range logic:
Indicator uses combination of market timing indicators (counting relationship between candles) , fisher transform, stoch rsi, bollinger bands to detect important market price action that show strenght - based on that it will project a static range where key goal is to predict where market will be extremely oversold, extremely overbought or where market could change bias etc.
The setups it provides are very similar to those that come out of harmonic patterns - but it was developed with unique approach without knowing what harmonic patterns are.. so it's not completly the same.
Range is represented by 3 tradable areas (actual trade ideas on charts - arrow points towards a level - on the right there is a scale with a number- limit order can be placed there )
Top of the range - It serves as a shorting area or if top is converted to support can also signal a potential breakout or start of new trend.
Example of a short the top of the range:
29732 - is area where wicks can be sold in to , or limit sell is placed - with higher leverage sl should be tight, with lower sell orders can be spread out up to the middle with sl just above 30500, targets can be choosen based on the provious range top as % moves point.
Example of longing the levels on the recent rise - price staying above middle of the top of the range keeps bias on the upside and potentially signals a break out or start of new trend
Uppper, Middle, Lower part of the range: Sideway area - middle of the range decides direction , above favors the upper levels , below favors the lower levels.
Very nice example where white line is middle of the range and shows that even in strong trend - range projection is able to accurately predict key pullback areas that provide substantial gain. See image below - again settign limit orders where middle of the range is allows you to get a comfortable entry with very big risk reward ratio.
Bottom of the range - market is extremely oversold
Spx example of our recent range from last year's summer - again chart includes both EMAflow indicator and EMAflow ranges as all indicators are extremely complementary and present two sides of the medal sideway and trend view.
Chart only contains ranges but shows the same pair and time:
If price goes below middle of the bottom of the range it could signal a break down or start of new bearish trend.
Dynamic range logic
Since sometimes static range gets broken out or is not respected and the price action is not yet sufficient to generated a new one we included a dynamic supply demand part where dynamic range is generated working in a similar way but does add clarity when static range fails.
example of this can be seen when ftx caused a btc dump we broke through the bottom of the range but dynamic range later showed us new bottom we could trade.
Confluence between both can also provide even more sure levels to place limit orders or to market buy or sell when wicks in to that area occurs.
Minuses:
Since ranges tend to work best when market is sideway - a second part is recommended with EMAflowPRO where focus on moving averages helps you navigate stronger trends.
Not all tfs are well synced with ranges on various assets so you will need to flip through few ones to find the best timeframes that historically worked the best - if you come across an asset that doens't look good you should just change timeframe to higher until you see something that fits or change asset until you get something that looks clear.
Settings:
EMAflow - Ranges - allows you to preset minimum potential of a trade setup you want to look for - default is 6% that ensures you can get a good setup on lower and higher tfs.
Consolidation Range Detector [Pt]█ Author's Note:
After extensively reviewing the existing consolidation detection tools in the TradingView library, I found that none fully met my expectations. Some tools were overly sensitive, producing too many invalid ranges, while others lacked the necessary sensitivity. Consequently, I decided to develop my own tool. I hope that you, fellow traders, find it valuable and enjoy using it.
█ Description:
The Consolidation Range Detector is a sophisticated TradingView tool designed to identify and visualize periods of price consolidation on any financial chart. This indicator employs advanced algorithms to detect ranges where price movements are confined, helping traders spot potential breakout zones and make informed trading decisions.
█ Key Features:
► Customizable Detection Sensitivity: Adjust the sensitivity of the detection algorithm to suit your trading strategy, ensuring a precise fit within the consolidation range.
► Dynamic Coloring: Choose between random or fixed colors for the consolidation ranges, with options to match different background color schemes (Dark, Light, Neutral).

█ User-Defined Inputs:
► Minimum Detection Bars: Set the minimum number of bars required to detect a consolidation range.
► Max Range Multiplier: Define the maximum range for detection as a multiple of the ATR.
► Detection Sensitivity: Adjust the sensitivity of the detection algorithm. Higher values mean a tighter fit within the consolidation range.
► Color Options: Choose the color for the consolidation range boxes and decide whether to use random colors.
► Color Scheme (Background): Select a color scheme for the chart background (Dark, Light, Neutral).
█ How It Works:
► Range Detection: The indicator scans the chart for potential consolidation ranges based on user-defined parameters. It calculates the average price and ATR to determine the significance of the range.
► Validation: Each detected range is validated based on criteria such as ATR threshold, range validity, average price comparison, and the number of touches at the range boundaries.
► Visualization: Validated ranges are highlighted on the chart with colored boxes, providing a clear visual cue of potential consolidation zones.
█ Usage Examples:
► Example 1:
The image below showcases the Consolidation Range Detector in action on a chart of S&P 500 E-mini Futures. The indicator highlights several consolidation ranges with different colors, demonstrating its ability to adapt to varying market conditions and visually emphasize key areas of price consolidation. The annotations for breakouts and price reactions are manually marked to illustrate the practical application of the tool in identifying potential trading opportunities based on these key areas.
█ Practical Applications:
► Identify Breakout Zones: Use the detected consolidation ranges to identify potential breakout zones, helping to anticipate significant price movements.
► Identify Key Price Levels: The tool helps in pinpointing key price levels where there is a high probability of significant price reactions, providing crucial insights for trading strategies.
► Enhance Technical Analysis: Integrate the Consolidation Range Detector into your existing technical analysis toolkit to improve the accuracy of your trading decisions.
█ Conclusion:
The Consolidation Range Detector is a powerful tool for traders looking to identify periods of price consolidation and potential breakout zones. With its customizable settings and advanced detection algorithms, it provides a reliable and visual method to enhance your trading strategy. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced trader, this indicator can add significant value to your technical analysis.
█ Cautionary Note:
While the Consolidation Range Detector is a powerful tool, it's important to combine it with other indicators and analysis methods for comprehensive trading decisions. Always consider market context and external factors when interpreting detected consolidation ranges.
Advanced VSA: Trend and Range LevelsThe indicator is designed for traders who are more interested in market structures and price action using volumes. Analyzing volumes, key market levels, market phases (trend or range/sideways), and multiple timeframes can help the trader build a clearer and more comprehensive view of the market. The data analysis algorithm is developed based on VSA methods, elements of the ICT concept, and the results of my research to assist trader in gaining a better understanding of the market and uncovering information that might go unnoticed.
The key idea is to consider multiple timeframes in trading. Understanding larger market movements from higher timeframes can provide a deeper context when making trading decisions, aiming to assist in more effective entries and exits. This is achieved by identifying the trend and its support levels on multiple timeframes, identifying ranges and their current boundaries, as well as buyer and seller interest zones.
Key Features
Trend Identification: The indicator determines the trend and its current support level. All significant price &movements occur in the form of impulses (either by sellers or buyers). An impulse consists of one or several consecutive candlesticks, at least one of which has a closing price beyond the boundaries of the previous impulse. The indicator displays the base of the impulse and/or the entire impulse. The base of the impulse represents the trend's support level.
Range Identification: The indicator can identify ranges and their current boundaries. Institutional traders take positions within price ranges, and many market reversals occur after flats. A range is a sequential price movement up and down within a specific price range. A range is formed by a minimum of 4 points, 2 above and 2 below, and is defined by its boundaries. The indicator detects ranges based on two (two consecutive impulses in one direction) or three impulses (the first and third in one direction, and the second in the opposite direction). The indicator displays the current boundary points of the range and the level of protection after exiting the range and initiating a trend.
Buyer and seller zones within impulses: After the impulse ends, a correction occurs. It is advisable to look for entry points during this correction in the direction of the impulse from the zone of interest of the owner of the impulse: the buyer's zone for a long impulse and the seller's zone for a short impulse. A zone consists of a series of consecutive candlesticks grouped on the chart in a specific manner.
Multi-Timeframe Trend Identification: The indicator also identifies the trend on two higher timeframes and displays the two latest bases of impulses from those higher timeframes on the chart.
Additional Features
Identification of Test Levels and Effort. A test is the price's return to a zone or to a candle of effort, followed by a continuation in the direction of the initial price movement. It is characterized by the test level. An effort or effort candle is a single candle that is individually larger in volume than the previous 2.
Example Use Cases
You can display the base levels of impulses from a 4-hour time frame and a daily time frame on a 15-minute chart to keep track of important levels from higher timeframes.
By exploring different timeframes, you can identify consolidations (range/sideways movements) and trade within them in the direction of the trend from higher timeframes.
If the market is in a trending phase (the presence of a trend is determined by two consecutive impulses in the same direction), look for trades in the direction of the impulse, following these priorities:
When the impulse base level is protected by the host of the impulse.
During corrections, look for buy trades in the buyer's zone for an uptrend and sell trades in the seller's zone for a downtrend.
During corrections, look for buy trades from a buyer's effort candle for an uptrend and sell trades from a seller's effort candle for a downtrend.
If the market is in a consolidation phase (range), look for trades:
When the current or maximum/minimum historical boundaries of the consolidation (range) are protected, look for trades towards the opposite current boundary.
If the price exits the consolidation/range (closes outside all consolidation boundaries, including both current and historical boundaries), then during corrections, look for trades in the direction of the exit.
Settings
Trend: Display base levels of impulses and/or the entire impulse. Sideways Ranges (Sideways Markets): Display the required number of sideways ranges on the chart, along with protection levels for exiting the sideways range. There are two modes for finding sideways ranges. The first mode requires touching points. The second mode (advanced) does not require precise touching of points if there are increased volumes at the extreme points of the sideways range. Touching these volumes is sufficient for the price.
Zones: Display zones on the chart. Choose the types of displayed zones and their colors. They are divided into three types. The first type is the most promising for finding trades. Type 3 represents more aggressive trades.
Test Levels: Display test levels for zones and efforts on the chart. There are three types of test levels. The first type is the most promising for finding trades. Type 3 is not recommended for finding trades as it represents the most aggressive trades.
Higher Time Frames: Choose 2 timeframes and the types of displayed impulse base lines.
Opening Range with Breakouts & Targets [LuxAlgo]Opening Range with Breakouts & Targets is based on the long-standing Opening Range Breakout strategy popularized by traders such as Toby Crabel and Mark Fisher.
This indicator measures and displays the price range created from the first period within a new trading session, along with price breakouts from that range and targets associated with the range width.
🔶 USAGE
The Opening Range (OR) can be a powerful tool for making a clear distinction between ranging and trending trading days. Using a rigid structure for drawing a range, provides a consistent basis to make judgments and comparisons that will better assist the user in determining a hypothesis for the day's price action.
NOTE: During a suspected "Range Day", the Opening Range can be used for reversion strategies, typically targeting the opposite extreme of the range or the mean of the range. However, more commonly the Opening Range is used for breakouts on suspected "Trend Days", targeting further upward or downward market movement.
The common Opening Range Breakout Strategy (ORB) outlines a structure to enter and exit positions based on rigid points determined by the Opening Range. This methodology can be adjusted based on markets or trading styles.
Determine Opening Range High & Low: These are the high and low price within a chosen period of time after the market opens. This can be customized to the user's trading style and preference. Common Ranges are from 5-60 mins.
Watch for a Breakout with Volume: A Breakout occurs when price crosses the OR High (ORH) or OR Low (ORL), an increase in volume is typically desired when witnessing these breakouts to confirm a stronger movement.
Manage Risk: Based on user preference and the appropriately determined amount of risk, multiple ways can be determined to manage risk by using Opening Range.
For Example: A stop-loss could be set at OR Mean (ORM) or the opposite side of the range, while a profit target could optionally be set at the first price target generated by the script.
Alternatively, a user might want to use a Moving Average (MA) as an adaptive stop-loss and use price targets to scale out. These are just 2 examples of the possible options, both capable with this tool.
🔹 Signals
Signals will fire based on the break of the opening range, this is indicated by arrows above and below the range boundaries.
Optionally, a bias can be added to these signals to aid in mitigating false signals by using a directional filter based on the current day's OR relative to the previous day's OR.
Regardless of the signal bias being enabled, the Opening Range Zone will always be colored directionally according to this.
If the current day's OR is above the previous day's OR, the Zone will be Green.
If the current day's OR is below the previous day's OR, the Zone will be Red.
By enabling the signal bias, signals in the opposite direction of the daily bias will fire on the cross of the first target in that direction.
🔹 Targets
In this indicator, targets are not limited and will generate infinitely based on a % width of the Opening Range.
Additionally, there are 2 display methods for these targets.
Extended: Extends the targets to the current bar and displays all targets that have been crossed so far within the session.
Adaptive: Extends only the 2 closest targets surrounding price, allowing for a display consisting of fewer lines at one time.
🔶 DETAILS
🔹 Historical Display
This indicator can be utilized in multiple ways, for use in real-time, and for historical analysis to form methods. Because of this, the indicator has an option to display only the current day's data or the entire historical data. This can also help clean up the chart when it is in use.
🔹 Time Period
The specific time period to create the opening range is entirely up to each user's preference, by default it is set to 30 mins; however, this time period can be edited with full control if desired.
Simply toggle on the "Custom Range" and input a range of time to create the range.
🔹 Session Moving Average
The Session Moving Average is a common Moving Average, which resets at the beginning of a new session. This allows for an unbiased MA that was created entirely from the current session's price action.
Note: The start of the session is determined by the start of the Opening Range if using a custom range of time.
🔶 SETTINGS
Show Historical Data: Choose to display only the current session's data or the full history of data.
Opening Range Time Period: Select the time period to form the opening range from. This operates on Session Start, so it will change with the chart.
Custom Range: Opt for a custom Range by enabling this and inputting your range times as well as your needed timezone.
Breakout Signal Bias: Select if the Breakout Signals will use a Daily Directional Bias for firing.
Target % of Range: Sets the % of the Range width that will be used as an increment for the Targets to display in.
Target Cross Source: Choose to use the Close price or High/Low price as the crossing level for Target displays. When this source crosses a target it will generate more targets.
Target Display: Choose which style of display to use for targets.
Session Moving Average: Optionally enable a Moving average of your choice that resets at the beginning of each session (start of opening range).

IND-Range Box [Salar Kamjoo]Hello to all dear traders,
One of the trading methods in financial markets is Range Box Trading. Ranges are specific price levels where the market reaches equilibrium, meaning the buying force is roughly equal to the selling force. Consequently, the market neither moves significantly upwards nor downwards; it oscillates within a particular range. The indicator I have designed for you is based on this concept. It utilizes the number of candles and their oscillations to identify specific ranges on the chart. These ranges are drawn based on the maximum and minimum of the box.
The optimal time for trading and using this indicator is when the market is less volatile, specifically outside of the overlapping London and New York sessions. Additionally, be cautious during news releases as they might lead to stop-hunting scenarios. Therefore, the best time to employ this indicator is when the market is relatively calm.
This indicator has 4 settings:
Setting Number 1: Number of Candles
This setting determines the number of candles involved in calculating the range boxes. A higher value indicates longer range boxes will be identified for you, while a lower value results in quicker recognition of range boxes. However, a smaller value may reduce the reliability of the identified range boxes. The recommended value for this setting may vary for each currency pair and time frame.
s3.tradingview.com
Setting Number 2: Range Percentage
This setting determines the maximum percentage difference between the high and low of the identified range box. (These settings are interconnected with Setting Number 3, as your choice in Setting Number 3—whether to base the range box calculation on the high or low, or on the candle close—will impact how this range percentage is applied.)
s3.tradingview.com
Setting Number 3: Calculation Basis
This setting determines whether the maximum width of the range box is based on the highest or lowest points, or if it is calculated based on the closing prices of the candles.
s3.tradingview.com
s3.tradingview.com
Setting Number 4: Number of Extended Candles
This visual setting determines the extension of your range box forward by a specified number of candles.
Another valuable feature of this indicator is the ability to configure alerts. By setting up alerts, you can promptly receive notifications whenever a range box is identified on the chart. This ensures that you are promptly informed about potential trading opportunities.

ORB opening range breakoutThis indicator plots the opening range high and low for a selected period of time in minutes after the market opens on an intraday chart to allow the user to visualize the high and low of the opening range for use in the Opening Range Breakout (ORB) strategy.
The Opening Range Breakout (ORB) strategy is a trading approach that involves identifying the price range within the first few minutes of a market session and then waiting for the price to break out of that range. This indicator facilitates this strategy through the use of shaded regions and/or price levels.
Features
Able to plot the high and low for any opening range above 1 min on any intraday timeframe
Fully customizable ORB region, price level, price axis, label
The inclusion of the Bollinger band along with it's Moving Average serves multiple purposes to assist the user in the opening range breakout strategy
Highlights to the user the deviation from the Moving Average due to an opening range breakout so that the user is better informed on whether to avoid entering a position, exit a position, or monitor the situation more closely
Highlights area of support or resistance formed by the Moving Average of Bollinger Band
Inform the user of the current trend direction to serve as confluence during an opening range breakout
What sets this indicator apart from others
In other ORB indicators, the opening range must be a multiple of the current chart's timeframe, restricting users on the intraday timeframes that can be used. E.g. if the user is using the 15 minutes opening range, they are restricted to use the 1, 3, 5, 15 minute(s) chart.
This indicator gives the user the flexibility to set any opening range above 1 min on any intraday timeframe. E.g. if the user is using the 15 minutes opening range, they are free to use any intraday timeframe on their chart, such as 1 hour or 2 hours chart.
How to use
Input the opening time range of interest in minutes
Check the "ORB region" checkbox to shade the ORB region
Check the "PRICE LEVEL" checkbox to draw a horizontal line of the high and low
Check the "PRICE AXIS" checkbox to plot the values on the price axis
Check the "LABEL" checkbox to draw a label of the high and low
VWAP RangeThe VWAP Range indicator is a highly versatile and innovative tool designed with trading signals for trading the supply and demand within consolidation ranges.
What's a VWAP?
A VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price) represents an equilibrium point in the market, balancing supply and demand over a specified period. Unlike simple moving averages, VWAP gives more weight to periods with higher volume. This is crucial because large volumes indicate significant trading activity, often by institutional traders, whose actions can reflect deeper market insights or create substantial market movements. The VWAP is also often used as a benchmark to evaluate the efficiency of executed trades. If a trader buys below the VWAP and sells above it, they are generally considered to have transacted favourably.
This is how it works:
Multiple VWAP Anchors:
This indicator uses multiple VWAPs anchored to different optional time periods, such as Daily, Weekly, Monthly, as well as to the highest high a lowest low within those periods. This multiplicity allows for a comprehensive view of the market’s average price based on volume and price, tailored to different trading styles and strategies.
Dynamic and Fixed Periods:
Traders can choose between using dynamic ranges, which reset at the start of each selected period, and specifying a date and time for a particular fixed range to trade. This flexibility is crucial for analyzing price movements within specific ranges or market phases.
Fixed ranges allow VWAPs to be calculated and anchored to a significant market event, the beginning of a consolidation phase or after a major news announcement.
Signal Generation:
The indicator generates buy and sell signals based on the relationship of the price to the VWAPs. It also allows for setting a maximum number of signals in one direction to avoid overtrading or pyramiding. Be sure to wait for the candle close before trading on the signals.
Average Buy/Sell Signal Lines:
Lines can be plotted to display the average buy and sell signal prices. The difference between the lines shows the average profit per trade when trading on the signals in that range. It's a good way to see how profitable a range is on average without backtesting the signals. The lines will also often turn into support and resistance areas, similar to value areas in a volume profile.
Customizable Settings:
Traders have control over various settings, such as the VWAP calculation method and bar color. There are also tooltips for every function.
Hidden Feature:
There's a subtle feature in this indicator: if you have 'Indicator values' turned on in TradingView, you'll see a Sell/Buy Ratio displayed only in the status line. This ratio indicates whether there are more sell signals than buy signals in a range, regardless of the Max Signals setting. A red value above 1 suggests that the market is trending upward, indicating you might want to hold your long positions a bit longer. Conversely, a green value below 1 implies a downward trend.
Trend-Range IdentifierTrend trading algorithms fail in ranging market and Swing trading algorithm fail in trending market. Purpose of this indicator is to identify if the instrument is trending or ranging so that you can apply appropriate trading algorithm for the market.
Process:
ATR is calculated based on the input parameter atrLength
Range/Channel containing upLine and downLine is calculated by adding/subtracting atrMultiplier * atr to close price.
This range/channel will remain same until the price breaks either upLine or downLine.
Once price crosses one among upLine and downLine, then new upLine/downLine is calculated based on latest close price.
If price breaks upLine, the trend is considered to be up until the next line break or no lines are broken for rangeLength bars. During this state, candles are colored in lime and upLine/downLine are colored in green.
If price breaks downLine, the trend is considered to be down until the next line break or no lines are broken for rangeLength bars. During this state, candles are colored in orange and upLine/downLine are colored in red.
If close price does not break either upLine or downLine for rangeLength bars, then the instrument is considered to be in range. During this state, candles are colored in silver and upLine/downLine are colored in purple.
In ranging duration, we display one among Keltner Channel, Bollinger Band or Donchian Band as per input parameter : rangeChannel . Other parameters used for calculation are rangeLength and stdDev
I have not fully optimized parameters. Suggestions and feedback welcome.
