Powertrend - Volume Range Filter Strategy [wbburgin]The Powertrend is a range filter that is based off of volume, instead of price. This helps the range filter capture trends more accurately than a price-based range filter, because the range filter will update itself from changes in volume instead of changes in price. In certain scenarios this means that the Powertrend will be more profitable than a normal range filter.
Essentials of the Strategy
This is a breakout strategy which works best on trending assets with high volume and liquidity. It should be used on middle to higher timeframes and can be used on all assets that have volume provided by the data source (stocks, crypto, forex). It is long-only as of now. It can work on lower timeframes if you optimize the strategy filters to make less trades or if your exchange/broker is low/no fees, provided that your exchange/broker has high liquidity and volume.
The strategy enters a long position if the range filter is trending upwards and the price crosses over the upper range band, which signifies a price-volume breakout. The strategy closes the long position if the range filter is trending downwards and the price crosses under the lower range band, which signifies a breakdown. Both these conditions can be altered by the three filter options in the settings. The default trend filter is not alterable because it helps prevent false entries and exits that are against the trend.
Settings
The Length setting is the lookback period for the range smoothing.
The ADX Filter setting enables you to turn on an ADX filter, which will halt entries and exits unless the ADX of your customizable length is above a ADX VWMA of that length.
The Range Supertrend setting creates a supertrend from the top and bottom ranges, which can be used to filter entries and exits. The length is customizable. The filter can show you whether the range is making higher highs and lower lows. Below is an example of the Range Supertrend being used as a filter and plotted on-chart:
The VWMA setting halts entries if they are below a customizable length VWMA.
Both the Range Supertrend and the VWMA can also be plotted separately without actually filtering the strategy, so that you can use them independently if you wish. You can turn off the bar color, the highlighting, and the labels if you wish in the settings. A note about the bar color: if the color changes but the strategy does not signal an exit or entry this means that the crossover was against the trend. In these circumstances it may be indicative of a pullback to enter or exit or to add onto your position.
About the Strategy Results Below
A range filter is normally composed of two components - the range filter itself and a smoothing function. In the development of this script I tested both normal and volume-based varieties of the range filter and the smoothing function:
Tests Performed
Volume-based Range x VWMA smoothing
Price-based Range x VWMA smoothing
Price-based Range x EMA smoothing
Volume-based Range x EMA smoothing (final result)
The highest-performing was a volume-based range filter and a normal EMA-based smoothing function, but that does not mean that this strategy will be profitable - exits are based off of signal reversion so I strongly encourage you to develop your own take profits/stop losses for the strategy if you think it may be a good fit for you. The results below are with a commission value of 0.05% (because I built the strategy first for equities), slippage of 3, so if your exchange/broker has a higher fee schedule, I recommend adding filters and/or moving to higher timeframes for the strategy. Additionally, I used 10% of equity in each trade, while using the Range Supertrend filter (the previous upload was unrealistic because it used 100% of equity - missed a 0, apologies, and added in slippage).

REVE Cohorts - Range Extension Volume Expansion CohortsREVE Cohorts stands for Range Extensions Volume Expansions Cohorts.
Volume is divided in four cohorts, these are depicted in the middle band with colors and histogram spikes.
0-80 percent i.e. low volumes; these get a green color and a narrow histogram bar
80-120 percent, normal volumes, these get a blue color and a narrow histogram bar
120-200 percent, high volume, these get an orange color and a wide histogram bar
200 and more percent is extreme volume, maroon color and wide bar.
All histogram bars have the same length. They point to the exact candle where the volume occurs.
Range is divided in two cohorts, these are depicted as candles above and below the middle band.
0-120 percent: small and normal range, depicted as single size, square candles
120 percent and more, wide range depicted as double size, rectangular candles.
The range candles are placed and colored according to the Advanced Price Algorithm (published script). If the trend is up, the candles are in the uptrend area, which is above the volume band, , downtrend candles below in the downtrend area. Dark blue candles depict a price movement which confirms the uptrend, these are of course in the uptrend area. In this area are also light red candles with a blue border, these depict a faltering price movement countering the uptrend. In the downtrend area, which is below the volume band, are red candles which depict a price movement confirming the downtrend and light blue candles with a red border depicting price movement countering the downtrend. A trend in the Advanced Price Algorithm is in equal to the direction of a simple moving average with the same lookback. The indicator has the same lagging.as this SMA.
Signals are placed in the vacated spaces, e.g. during an uptrend the downtrend area is vacated.
There are six signals, which arise as follows:
1 Two blue triangles up on top of each other: high or extreme volume in combination with wide range confirming uptrend. This indicates strong and effective up pressure in uptrend
2 Two pink tringles down on top of each other: high or extreme volume in combination with wide range down confirming downtrend. This indicates strong and effective down pressure in downtrend
3 Blue square above pink down triangle down: extreme volume in combination with wide range countering uptrend. This indicates a change of heart, down trend is imminent, e.g. during a reversal pattern. Down Pressure in uptrend
4 Pink square below blue triangle up: extreme volume in combination with wide range countering downtrend. This indicates a change of heart, reversal to uptrend is imminent. Up Pressure in downtrend
5 single blue square: a. extreme volume in combination with small range confirming uptrend, b. extreme volume in combination with small range countering downtrend, c. high volume in combination with wide range countering uptrend. This indicates halting upward price movement, occurs often at tops or during distribution periods. Unresolved pressure in uptrend
6 Single pink square: a extreme volume in combination with small range confirming downtrend, b extreme volume in combination with small range countering uptrend, c high volume in combination with wide range countering downtrend. This indicated halting downward price movement. Occurs often at bottoms or during accumulation periods. Unresolved pressure in downtrend.
The signals 5 and 6 are introduced to prevent flipping of signals into their opposite when the lookback is changed. Now signals may only change from unresolved in directional or vice versa. Signals 3 and 4 were introduced to make sure that all occurrences of extreme volume will result in a signal. Occurrences of wide volume only partly lead to a signal.
Use of REVE Cohorts.
This is the indicator for volume-range analyses that I always wanted to have. Now that I managed to create it, I put it in all my charts, it is often the first part I look at, In my momentum investment system I use it primarily in the layout for following open positions. It helps me a lot to decide whether to close or hold a position. The advantage over my previous attempts to create a REVE indicator (published scripts), is that this version is concise because it reports and classifies all possible volumes and ranges, you see periods of drying out of volume, sequences of falter candles, occurrences of high morning volume, warning and confirming signals.. The assessment by script whether some volume should be considered low, normal, high or extreme gives an edge over using the standard volume bars.
Settings of REVE Cohorts
The default setting for lookback is ‘script sets lookback’ I put this in my indicators because I want them harmonized, the script sets lookback according to timeframe. The tooltip informs which lookback will be set at which timeframe, you can enable a feedback label to show the current lookback. If you switch ‘script sets lookback’ off, you can set your own preferred user lookback. The script self-adapts its settings in such a way that it will show up from the very first bar of historical chart data, it adds volume starting at the fourth bar.
You can switch off volume cohorts, only range candles will show while the middle band disappears. Signals will remain if volume is present in the data. Some Instruments have no volume data, e.g. SPX-S&P 500 Index,, then only range candles will be shown.
Colors can be adapted in the inputs. Because the script calculates matching colors with more transparency it is advised to use 100 percent opacity in these settings.
Take care, Eykpunter

CAT Month Opening RangeA trading range which is formed during the first three trading day of any month sets an important "Month Opening Range".
The lowest price made during the first three trading days can be considered the Monthly Support level (see the green line drawn by the indicator).
The highest price made during the first three trading days can be considered the Monthly Resistance level (see the red line drawn by the indicator).
In an Up trending market price tends to break over the upper edge of the Month Opening Range and keep moving higher at the very least until the middle of that month.
In an Up trending market once price broke out of the Month Opening Range, the Monthly Resistance level tends to work as a support.
In a Down trending market price tends to break under the lower edge of the Month Opening Range and keep moving higher at the very least until the middle of that month.
In a Down trending market once price broke under the Month Opening Range, the Monthly Support level tends to work as a resistance
There are may ways to use that instrument:
(1) Trend Confirmation.
The first three days of a month tends to bring volatile trading. The market sets boundaries for the following four trading weeks.
Once the range has been set, swing traders may wait for the market to break out of the range and consider that direction of the prevailing trend direction.
(2) Short "Failed Breakout" setup
Quite often price breaks out of the Month Opening Range on the fourth or fifth trading day of a month but then drops back into the range.
That failed breakout quite often is followed by decline back down to the Month Support level (the lower edge of the Month Opening Range).
(3) Long "Failed Breakdown" setup
Quite often price breaks down under the Month Support on the fourth or fifth trading day of a month but then pops back up over the Monthly Support.
That failed breakdown quite often is followed by a rally targeting to retest the Monthly Resistance (the red line).
The indicator generates signals, trade set-ups and alerts that are for educational and hypothetical purposes only and shall not be considered trade recommendations.
Any signals or trading setups drawn by the indicator is not to be construed as an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy, nor is it to be construed as a recommendation to buy, hold or sell (short or otherwise) any security. All users of the indicator must determine for themselves what specific investments to make or not make and are urged to consult with their own independent financial advisors with respect to any investment decision.
Range FinderRange Finder Strategy for TradingView
Overview
The Range Finder Strategy is a sophisticated trading system designed for forex and cryptocurrency markets, leveraging dynamic range detection, wick-based rejection patterns, and EMA confluence to execute high-probability trades. This strategy identifies key price ranges using pivot points and triggers trades when price rejects from these boundaries with significant wick formations, aligning with the broader market trend as confirmed by EMA crossovers. It incorporates robust risk management, customizable parameters, and visual aids for clear trade visualization, making it suitable for both manual and automated trading on platforms like Bitget via webhook alerts.
Strategy Components
1. Dynamic Range Detection
Pivot Points: The strategy identifies range boundaries using pivot highs and lows, calculated with a user-defined Pivot Length (default: 5 bars left/right). These pivots mark significant swing points, defining the upper (range high) and lower (range low) boundaries of the price range.
Visualization: The range high is plotted as an orange line, and the range low as a purple line, using a broken line style (plot.style_linebr) to show only confirmed pivot levels, providing a clear visual of the trading range.
2. Wick-Based Rejection Pattern
Wick Detection: The strategy looks for rejection candles at the range boundaries, characterized by significant wicks. A wick is considered valid if its size is at least the user-defined Wick to Body Ratio (default: 1.1, or 10% larger than the candle body).
Sell Signal: Triggered when the high exceeds the range high, the candle closes bearish (close < open), and the upper wick meets the ratio requirement.
Buy Signal: Triggered when the low falls below the range low, the candle closes bullish (close > open), and the lower wick meets the ratio requirement.
Purpose: These wicks indicate strong rejection at key levels, often signaling a reversal back into the range, providing high-probability entry points.
3. EMA Trend Confirmation
EMA Calculation: Uses two Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) calculated on a user-selectable timeframe (default: 5-minute):
EMA 200: Long-term trend indicator (plotted in red).
EMA 50: Short-term trend indicator (plotted in green).
Crossover Logic:
A bullish trend is confirmed when the EMA 50 crosses above the EMA 200 (ema_trend_up = true).
A bearish trend is confirmed when the EMA 50 crosses below the EMA 200 (ema_trend_down = true).
Confluence Requirement: Trades are only executed when the wick rejection aligns with the EMA trend (e.g., sell signals require close < ema200 and bearish trend; buy signals require close > ema200 and bullish trend).
4. Risk Management
Position Sizing: Calculated based on the user-defined Account Balance (default: $10,000) and Risk Per Trade (default: 2%). The position size is determined as risk_amount / stop_distance, where stop_distance is derived from the Average True Range (ATR, default period: 14).
Stop Loss (SL): Set using an ATR-based multiplier (SL Multiplier, default: 9.0). For sells, SL is placed above the high; for buys, below the low.
Take Profit (TP): Set using an ATR-based multiplier (TP Multiplier, default: 6.0) scaled by the Risk:Reward Ratio (default: 6.0), ensuring a favorable reward-to-risk profile.
Example: For a $10,000 account with 2% risk, if ATR is 0.5, the position size is 400 units, with SL and TP dynamically adjusted to market volatility.
5. Trade Execution
Sell Entry: Triggered on a wick rejection above the range high, with bearish EMA confluence (ema_trend_down and close < ema200). Enters a short position with calculated SL and TP.
Buy Entry: Triggered on a wick rejection below the range low, with bullish EMA confluence (ema_trend_up and close > ema200). Enters a long position with calculated SL and TP.
Exit Logic: Uses strategy.exit to set SL and TP levels, closing trades when either is hit.
6. Visual Feedback
Lines and Labels: Upon trade entry, the strategy plots:
Red SL line and label (e.g., "SL: 123.45").
Green TP line and label (e.g., "TP: 120.00").
Entry line (red for sell, green for buy) labeled with "Sell (Range Rejection)" or "Buy (Range Rejection)".
Customization: Users can adjust the Line Length (default: 25 bars) for how long lines persist and Label Position (left or right) for optimal chart visibility.
7. Alert Conditions
Webhook Integration: Generates alerts for Bitget webhook integration, providing JSON-formatted messages with trade details (action, contracts, market position, size, price, symbol, and timestamp).
Usage: Traders can set up automated trading by connecting these alerts to trading bots or platforms supporting webhooks.
Candle Range Detector [UAlgo]The "Candle Range Detector " is a Pine Script™ indicator designed to identify trading opportunities based on the concept of price consolidation and breakout. It analyzes the price range of a specified number of previous candles and detects when subsequent candles stay within that range (consolidation). The indicator then highlights potential breakouts above or below the range and provides calculated Take Profit (TP) and Stop Loss (SL) levels based on your chosen method (percentage or Average True Range - ATR).
🔶 Key Features
Configurable Range: Define the minimum number of candles required to establish a valid price range.
Breakout Detection: Identify potential breakouts above or below the established range based on your selection (close price or wick).
Take Profit & Stop Loss Levels: The indicator calculates TP and SL levels based on your chosen method (percentage or ATR) and user-defined multipliers. The calculated TP and SL levels are visualized as horizontal lines with corresponding labels ("Take Profit" and "Stop Loss").
Optional Count Display: You can choose to display the number of candles currently within the range.
🔶 Disclaimer:
Not Financial Advice: This indicator is intended for educational and informational purposes only. It does not constitute financial advice or recommendations to buy, sell, or hold any financial instruments.
Use at Own Risk: Trading involves substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for all investors. Users of this indicator should exercise caution and conduct their own research and analysis before making any trading decisions.
Performance Not Guaranteed: Past performance is not indicative of future results. While the indicator aims to assist traders in analyzing market trends, there is no guarantee of accuracy or success in trading operations.

Volatility oscillator that measures the relationship of Buying & Selling Pressure to True Range.
In other words, how much % Buyers and Sellers separately occupy the Bar
BSP is a part of Bar Range. Entire bar metrics will always have bigger value than its composite elements (body and wicks).
Since there will be NO chance of BP or SP being more than ATR, their ratio would serve crucial Volatility details.
Hence, we can relate each of them to the overall range.
As a result we have simultaneous measurements of proportions buyers and sellers to the bar.
Default mode shows BP/ATR and SP/ATR mirrored. When one rises, the other falls to compensate.
Buying Pressure / True Range ⬆️🟢 ⬇️🔵
Selling Pressure / True Range ⬆️🔴 ⬇️🟠
They are being averaged in 2 different ways:
Pre-average first, then relate as ratio
Related first, then Averaged
Enable "Preaveraged" to use already averaged BSP and Ranges in ratio instead of averaging the ratio of BSP to individual bar. For example, we're looking BP/ATR, in calculation of buyers / Range it will use "MA(Buying Pressure) / MA(True Range)" instead of "MA(Buying Pressure / True Range)".
Due such calculation, it is going to be more lagging than in off mode. Nevertheless, it reduces noise from the impact of individual bar change.
Second way of noise reduction is enabling "Body / Range"
BSP Body / Range where Bullish & Bearish Body = Buying & Selling Pressure - Relevant Wick
Buying Body = Buying Pressure - Lower Wick
Selling Body = Selling Pressure - Upper Wick
And only then it is divided to ATR.
Note that Balance line differs because body is less than it used to be with wicks. So change in wicks won't play any role in computing the ratio anymore. Thus, signals of their crossings will be more reliable than in default mode.

Gradient Range [BigBeluga]
This indicator highlights range-bound market conditions by dynamically plotting gradient-colored candlesticks within a defined price box. It detects whether the market is ranging or trending using ADX and can identify mean reversion points when price steps outside the established range.
🔵KEY FEATURES:
Range Detection Box:
➣ A transparent box is drawn based on the highest and lowest price close over a user-defined period.
➣ Helps visualize range boundaries and the midline for support/resistance reference.
Gradient Candlestick Coloring:
➣ Candles inside the range are colored with a gradient from top to bottom based on proximity to the midline.
➣ Top range candles are shaded with bearish tones, while bottom range candles use bullish tones.
Ranging/Trending State Detection:
➣ Uses ADX to determine if the market is currently in a ranging or trending state.
➣ A label in the bottom right corner shows a real-time status (🟢 Ranging / 🟡 Trending).
Mean Reversion Signal Circles:
➣ When the market is ranging, white circles are plotted at highs/lows that breach the box boundary, indicating potential mean reversion points.
➣ These levels can act as fade trade setups or exhaustion markers.
🔵USAGE:
Range Trading: Trade between the upper and lower boundaries during range-bound conditions with clearer visual feedback.
Mean Reversion Plays: Use circle signals as early alerts to identify when price extends beyond the range and may revert to the mean.
Visual Trend Strength: Instantly recognize where price is concentrated inside the range via the color gradient system.
Ranging Filter: Use the ADX label to avoid false setups during strong trending periods.
Gradient Range provides an elegant and data-driven approach to range-bound market analysis. With its gradient visualization and smart reversion detection, it empowers traders to better time entries and exits within consolidation zones.
Range Bound - Rev NR - 12-25-22RangeBound - Code tracks price action within a user specified range (lookback), and tracks/charts overall high/lows, open high/lows, and close high/lows. Code resets certain parameters based on break of range to assist with determine price action - Can be useful to determine resistances to movement regardless of S&R levels. Code also uses the previous 5X Close High/Lows ranges as will chart as support and resistance to assist with determine resistance to price action
Note if using "redraw" shorter lookback periods will take additional time to compile due to multiple "redraws/deletes of previous lines" Uncheck redraw to reduce compile time

Note: we do not use the DAILY bar via 'security()' to obtain today's high and low. This would essentially be forward looking, instead we use iteration to check from the current bar back to midnight, bar by bar. This then allows a developing range to be established as the day prints new highs and lows.

Smart Money Range [ChartPrime]The Smart Money Range indicator is designed to provide traders with a holistic view of market structure, emphasizing potential key support and resistance levels within a predefined range. This indicator is not just a visually pleasing, but also a comprehensive guide to understanding the market’s dynamics at a given level.
Key Features:
Defined Range: The indicator demarcates a clear range, highlighting support and resistance levels within it. This aids in identifying potential areas of buying and selling pressure. These are derived from highly significant areas that have been touched many times before.
Touches Counter: Underneath the support and resistance lines, there are numerical values that show the number of times price has interacted with these levels. This can provide insights into the strength or weakness of a particular level.
Zig-Zag Projections: Within the range, there's a zig-zag pattern indicating possible future touches, helping traders anticipate future price movements.
Double-Sided Profile: To the right of the range, a dual-profile is showcased. One side of the profile displays the volume traded at specific price levels, giving insights into where significant buying or selling has occurred. On the other side, it reflects the number of touches at that given price level, reinforcing the importance of particular price points.
Customizability: Users have the option to adjust the period setting, allowing them to cater the indicator to their specific trading style and configuration. Additionally, with volume levels settings, traders can adjust the number of bins in the profile for a tailored view.

Primarily developed for trading the E-MINI Futures Markets like NQ or ES from the CME Group,
but also more than suitable for Crypto or other instruments.
This indicator highlights the chosen session, which can be Globex, Asian, London and New York.
It plots the important levels and also renders the Opening Range as it forms (a.k.a. Initial Balance).
After the 1st hour Opening Range is finished, it can plot the Standard Deviations / Projections.
See below for a complete feature list.
All Opening Ranges on chart and for the New York session the Range Projections are turned on:
s3.tradingview.com
How to use (example):
If you are trading the Nasdaq Futures (NQ!)
Enable the Globex Overnight session. Basically in the Futures Market, the Globex session is everything outside of US trading hours of Stocks. This draws the important overnight levels, like the Low, 25%, 50%, 75% and the High.
Enable the New York Session with Levels and Opening Range. Generally, 70% of the time the 1st hour will put a Low or High of the day.
If the price is trading above the Globex Low, most likely the Low of the Day is formed and the price target for the day will be 1.5x Standard Deviation and 2x Standard Deviation.

Built in Alerts for when price hits key levels. e.g. Alert when price crosses the NY Opening Range High. Or an Alert when the first STDEV is hit.
Option to toggle display of drawings for Today's trading session only, or Show all recent session levels. This keeps the chart clean or not.
Extras:
The NY Opening Range also has a 50% level line
The NY Opening Bar can be highlighted separately
The Level Lines can have small labels turned on/off. Values are only shown on mouse over to keep a clean chart
Keep in mind:
1) This indicator works on all instruments, but on instruments with limited market hours, your chart setting
has to be set to "Extended Hours" otherwise. For example TSLA on NASDAQ.
2) The Exchange Time Zone for the CME Group is Chicago UTC-6. So the session times you configure in the settings menu are based on that timezone too.
3) Globex opens at 5pm CST and closes when the US session starts 8:30CST.
4) When enabling the Alerts in the Indicator settings, be sure to also create an alarm for this indicator using the Alarm function of Tradingview.
Time Range StatisticsA good amount of users requested a text box showing various price statistics, the following script returns various of these stats in a user-selected range, and include classical ones such as a central tendency measurement (mean), dispersion (normalized range) and percent change, but also include less common statistics such as average traded volume and number of gaps. The script also calculates the correlation between the closing price and another user-selected instrument.
The script is currently the longest one I ever made and took some efforts, as I wasn't satisfied with the statistics to be originally included. Big thx to Gael for the enormous feedback and the idea of the normalized range, to user @Cookiecrush for the feedback ( without ya I would have posted something bad you know umu ? ), and Lulidolce for the support, friendship is magic!
Selected Range
The setting Start determine the bar at which the range starts, while End determine at which bar the range end. To help you select these values, the current bar number (bar index) is displayed at the right of the indicator title in blue.
The setting evaluate to last bar will use a range starting at Start and ending at the last bar, as such you can use a full range by using Start = 0 and select evaluate to last bar
The range is highlighted by an area on the chart. By default Start = 9000 and End = 10000, you might not have this amount of data in your chart, as such use the displayed bar index to select Start and End, then set the settings as default.
Displayed Statistics
The statistics panel is displayed on the right side of the last bar, the panel has 3 sections, a title section who shows the symbol ticker, timeframe, and overall trends represented by a chart emoji, the overall trends are determined by comparing the number of higher highs with the number of lower low.
Below are displayed the date ranges with time format: year/month/day/hour:minute.
The second section shows the general statistics. The first one is the mean, also represented by the orange line in the chart, the blue line displayed represent the highest price value in the range, while the red one represents the lowest price value.
The second stat is the normalized range, and determine how spread is the price in the user-selected range, why not the standard deviation? Because the standard deviation might return results varying widely depending on the scale of the closing price, you could get measures such as 0.0156 or 16 or even 56 depending on the instrument, as such using a normalized range can be more appropriate as it lays in a range of (0,1). Lower values indicate a low degree of price variation. Note that I still want to find another measure in the future.
The percentage change (or relative change) indicates at which percentage the price has increased or decreased, and is calculated by subtracting the closing at bar Start with the price at bar End , divided by the price at bar End , the result is then multiplied by 100.
The average traded volume calculate the mean of the volume in the selected range, I used the same format used by the original volume indicator for clarity.
Finally, the last stats of the section is the number of gaps, this stat is by default hidden. An up gap is detected when the open price is superior to the previous high, while a down gap is detected when the open price is inferior to the previous low, this allow to only retain significant gaps.
The last section of the indicator panel shows the correlation between the closing price and another instrument, by default GOOG, this correlation is also calculated within the user-selected range. Positive values indicate a positive relationship, that is the two instruments tend to move in the same direction. Negative values indicate a negative relationship, both instruments tend to move in a direction opposite to each other. Values closer to 1 or -1 indicate a stronger relationship, while values closer to 0 indicate no relationship.
In Summary
The script shows various stats, each calculated within a user-selected range, in general one would be more interested in how these stats might evolve with time, but checking them in a custom range can be quite interesting.
Thx for reading. umu
How To Auto Set Date RangeExample how to automatically set the date range window to be backtested from X days or weeks ago to present. Additional options are also included to manually set the date range or to show entire range available.
Normally when you change chart period it changes the number of days being backtested, which means as you increase the chart period (for example from 5min to 15min), you also increase the number of days traded. So you can not compare apples to apples for which period would yield best performance for your strategy.
By incorporating this code with your own strategy's logic (replacing buy and sell), it will allow you to compare results of different period backtests over the same duration of time.
Date Range: ALL uses entire history.
Date Range: DAYS uses number you set in # Days or Weeks
Date Range: WEEKS uses number you set in # Days or Weeks
Date Range: MANUAL uses manual dates you set in From and To fields
Much gratitude to @pinechrix for suggesting this improvement to me, and to @Gesundheit for pointing me in the right direction on the original example I published previously. Thank you both!

HTF Current/Average RangeThe "HTF(Higher Timeframe) Current/Average Range" indicator calculates and displays the current and average price ranges across multiple timeframes, including daily, weekly, monthly, 4 hour, and user-defined custom timeframes.
Users can customize the lookback period, table size, timeframe, and font color; with the indicator efficiently updating on the final bar to optimize performance.
When the current range surpasses the average range for a given timeframe, the corresponding table cell is highlighted in green, indicating potential maximum price expansion and signaling the possibility of an impending retracement or consolidation.
For day trading strategies, the daily average range can serve as a guide, allowing traders to hold positions until the current daily range approaches or meets the average range, at which point exiting the trade may be considered.
For scalping strategies, the 15min and 5min average range can be utilized to determine optimal holding periods for fast trades.
Other strategies:
Intraday Trading - 1h and 4h Average Range
Swing Trading - Monthly Average Range
Short-term Trading - Weekly Average Range
Also using these statistics in accordance with Power 3 ICT concepts, will assist in holding trades to their statistical average range of the chosen HTF candle.
CODE
The core functionality lies in the data retrieval and table population sections.
The request.security function (e.g., = request.security(syminfo.tickerid, "D", , lookahead = barmerge.lookahead_off)) retrieves high and low prices from specified timeframes without lookahead bias, ensuring accurate historical data.
These values are used to compute current ranges and average ranges (ta.sma(high - low, avgLength)), which are then displayed in a dynamically generated table starting at (if barstate.islast) using table.new, with conditional green highlighting when the current range is greater than average range, providing a clear visual cue for volatility analysis.
ICT CRT Model Range with EquilibriumICT CRT Model Range with Equilibrium Indicator
This indicator calculates and displays the high, low, and equilibrium levels within a custom-defined session (9:00 am to 10:00 am New York Time and the lines will stop appearing at 16:00pm ). It draws horizontal lines to represent the session's range and marks the equilibrium point as a reference.
What is CRT (Candle Range Theory)?
Candle Range Theory (CRT) is based on the concept that every candle on any timeframe forms its own range. These ranges can either be manipulated—through strategies like Turtle Soup—or broken, resulting in price movements such as engulfing patterns, breakouts, and retests beyond the candle's high or low.
CRT is commonly visualized as a 3-candle model, but it can include more candles due to the presence of inside bars. An inside bar is a candle whose high is not higher than the previous candle's high and whose low is not lower than the previous candle's low.
The CRT model follows the A-M-D structure:
Accumulation (A): The first candle or group of candles (inside bars) represents market consolidation.
Manipulation (M): The second candle signals a false move, often a Turtle Soup setup designed to trap traders.
Distribution (D): The third candle confirms the true market move, breaking out of the range and establishing the trend.
Customizable Settings:
Line Colors: Choose your preferred colors for the high, low, and equilibrium lines.
Line Widths: Adjust the thickness of the lines for better visibility.
Line Styles: Select from solid, dotted, or dashed styles for each line.
Label Settings: Customize the text and colors of the labels for the high, low, and equilibrium points.
Traders can easily modify these settings to suit their visual preferences and trading strategies. This indicator is ideal for identifying price action within a specific range, offering clear visual cues for potential CRT Setup.
Smart Labelling - Range FilterThis is a labelling module based on a range filter . Notice that the trick here is to use fibonachi numbers . Use smaller range multiplier for higher TFs. This module may serve as a signal generator to be passed through a signal filter.
Quote from the original author:
This is an experimental study designed to filter out minor price action for a clearer view of trends. Inspired by the QQE's volatility filter, this filter applies the process directly to price rather than to a smoothed RSI. First, a smooth average price range is calculated for the basis of the filter and multiplied by a specified amount. Next, the filter is calculated by gating price movements that do not exceed the specified range. Lastly the target ranges are plotted to display the prices that will trigger filter movement.
Roman's Ranges(GOLD FUTURES)This indicator provides the user with Gold Future's previous day’s range and how long it took for the price to reach its first extreme for the day. This information is used to predict the most probable daily direction trend and estimate how long you should expect to hold your winning trade. The distance and time are based on the market open candle (6:30 am). It measures from the retracement wick of the candle to the last 5m close of the day’s first extreme low or high point. It also includes that distance in pts.
Previous market data does not guarantee future results, however, you can leverage the knowledge of the previous day’s ranges to set reasonable take profit levels and when your target is not met automatically, you know how long it took on the previous day to reach the day’s first low/high. If you are nearing that amount of time and your trade is not as profitable as expected, it is easier to get out with less profits using this estimated time rather than hoping the market closes in your favor.
Markets go through cycles and it can be difficult to trade them all if you have a fault expectation how how far the price is expected to move. Price tends to deviate slowly from the average ranges slightly day after day, but you can expect an average range to prevail throughout the week +/- 3 points. It can be very easy to be stuck on 5-point take-profit levels that you don’t pay attention to the average range being twice or three times that distance. The same can be said for the opposite scenario with having higher profit expectations than reasonably possible.

Hourly Ranges [QuantVue]The "Hourly Ranges" indicator is designed to track and visualize the price ranges for each hour of the trading day. It calculates the difference between the high and low prices, as well as the differences between the high and open, and the open and low prices for each hourly candle. This data is stored and used to draw range lines on the chart.
This indicator is particularly useful for traders who want to monitor how price behaves during specific hours, identify potential support and resistance levels, and make trading decisions based on historical hourly price data.
Traders can use the hourly ranges to gauge market volatility and set expectations for price movement within each hour. The drawn levels on the chart represent the average high (resistance) and low (support) price ranges for each hour. These levels can serve as potential entry or exit points for trades, offering clear markers for setting stop-loss or take-profit orders.
By observing how price interacts with these hourly levels, traders can confirm trends or spot reversals. For example, if the price repeatedly touches and bounces off a specific hourly support level, it could indicate strong buying interest at that level.
The average range calculation gives traders a sense of the typical price movement during specific hours. This helps in assessing whether the market is more volatile during certain periods, which can be crucial for adjusting trading strategies and position sizing.
This indicator is particularly useful for traders who want to monitor how price behaves during specific hours, identify potential support and resistance levels, and make trading decisions based on historical hourly price data.
B A N K $ - Advanced Session RangesThis is a simple indicator that has been designed to aid intraday trading and has a few components;
Key Features
Session Ranges + Optimal Exit Time
Asia Pip Range
New York Midnight Open Line
Session Ranges + Optimal Exit Time
Information ℹ️
This is a visual depiction of the 3 main sessions in the markets. Asia, London & New York. The default timings are set to perfectly align with each session however the Start & End times for each session can be changed in the settings. (I've added a website on the tooltip to easily convert timezones)
I have also added a 4th session range called "Optimal Exit Time". This is statistically the most probable time window for the opposite High / Low of Day to form is within this window. It helps the trader understand when they should look to take profit.
How It Works 🔑
The indicator automatically maps on two lines for the High & Low of the range between the selected Start & End time, it also colours the background.
The individual lines & background can be toggled & customised to the traders preference.
Asia Pip Range
Information ℹ️
This displays the Asia Range in pips beneath the Asia Session Low.
How It Works 🔑
This calculates the distance between the Asia High - Asia Low in pips. It will automatically recalibrate to the timings the trader sets in the settings if they change the Start / End.
New York Midnight Open Line
Information ℹ️
This helps look for Buys beneath the line for a Bullish Expansion day 📈 & Sells above the line for a Bearish Expansion day 📉
How It Works 🔑
This adds a horizontal line to the chart that is anchored to New York Midnight Open (00:00) by default. It can be changed in the settings in required. You can also toggle on the time being shown above the line.
