Impulse Zones | Flux Charts💎 GENERAL OVERVIEW
Introducing our new Impulse Zones indicator, a powerful tool designed to identify significant price movements accompanied by strong volume, highlighting potential areas of support and resistance. These Impulse Zones can offer valuable insights into market momentum and potential reversal or continuation points. For more information about the process, please check the "HOW DOES IT WORK ?" section.
Impulse Zones Features :
Dynamic Zone Creation : Automatically identifies and plots potential supply and demand zones based on significant price impulses and volume spikes.
Customizable Settings : Allows you to adjust the sensitivity of zone detection based on your trading style and market conditions.
Retests and Breakouts : Clearly marks instances where price retests or breaks through established Impulse Zones, providing potential entry or exit signals.
Alerts : You can set alerts for Bullish & Bearish Impulse Zone detection and their retests.
🚩 UNIQUENESS
Our Impulse Zones indicator stands out by combining both price action (impulsive moves) and volume confirmation to define significant zones. Unlike simple support and resistance indicators, it emphasizes the strength behind price movements, potentially filtering out less significant levels. The inclusion of retest and breakout visuals directly on the chart provides immediate context for potential trading opportunities. The user can also set up alerts for freshly detected Impulse Zones & the retests of them.
📌 HOW DOES IT WORK ?
The indicator identifies bars where the price range (high - low) is significantly larger than the average true range (ATR), indicating a strong price movement. The Size Sensitivity input allows you to control how large this impulse needs to be relative to the ATR.
Simultaneously, it checks if the volume on the impulse bar is significantly higher than the average volume. The Volume Sensitivity input governs this threshold.
When both the price impulse and volume confirmation criteria are met, an Impulse Zone is created in the corresponding direction. The high and low of the impulse bar define the initial boundaries of the zone. Zones are extended forward in time to remain relevant. The indicator manages the number of active zones to maintain chart clarity and can remove zones that haven't been touched for a specified period. The indicator monitors price action within and around established zones.
A retest is identified when the price touches a zone and then moves away. A break occurs when the price closes beyond the invalidation point of a zone. Keep in mind that if "Show Historic Zones" setting is disabled, you will not see break labels as their zones will be removed from the chart.
The detection of Impulse Zones are immediate signs of significant buying or selling pressure entering the market. These zones represent areas where a strong imbalance between buyers and sellers has led to a rapid price movement accompanied by high volume. Bullish Impulse Zones act as a possible future support zone, and Bearish Impulse Zones act as a possible future resistance zone. Retests of the zones suggest a strong potential movement in the corresponding direction.
⚙️ SETTINGS
1. General Configuration
Show Historic Zones: If enabled, invalidated or expired Impulse Zones will remain visible on the chart.
2. Impulse Zones
Invalidation Method: Determines which part of the candle (Wick or Close) is used to invalidate a zone break.
Size Sensitivity: Controls the required size of the impulse bar relative to the ATR for a zone to be detected. Higher values may identify fewer, larger zones. Lower values may detect more, smaller zones.
Volume Sensitivity: Controls the required volume of the impulse bar relative to the average volume for a zone to be detected. Higher values require more significant volume.
Labels: Toggles the display of "IZ" labels on the identified zones.
Retests: Enables the visual highlighting of retests on the zones.
Breaks: Enables the visual highlighting of zone breaks.
