Inside Bar with High/LowInside Bar with High/Low
The indicator plots horizontal mid line between two Inside bars with High / Low with Multi Time Frame Selection by the user which can be traded in trending markets in the direction of the trend, when traded this way they are typically referred to as a ‘Breakout Play’ or an inside bar ‘Price Action Breakout Pattern’ They can also be traded counter-trend, typically from ‘Key Chart Levels’ , when traded this way they are often referred to as ‘Inside Bar Reversals’ .
The classic entry for an inside bar signal is to place a buy stop or sell stop at the high or low of the mother bar, and then when price breakouts above or below the mother bar, your entry order is filled with best time frame preferably more than 1 hour.
Stop loss placement is typically at the opposite end of the mother bar, or it can be placed near the mother bar halfway point (50% level), typically if the mother bar is larger than average.
It’s worth noting that these are the ‘classic’ or standard entry and stop loss placements for an inside bar setup is a useful tool for traders looking to identify potential reversals using the 20/50 EMA and candlestick patterns. However, like any trading tool, it should be used in conjunction with other indicators and analysis techniques for better accuracy
And also this tool is especially useful for day traders who want to track price action during specific times of the day and make informed decisions based on market behavior with more than 60 minutes period
As always, back testing and customization are recommended to optimize performance across different market conditions
In the end, experienced traders may decide on other entries or stop loss placements as they see fit.

Engulfing Patterns & Inside Bar at NWOGEngulfing Patterns & Inside Bar at NWOG:
This indicator is designed to detect and display specific candlestick patterns (Bearish Engulfing, Bullish Engulfing, and Inside Bar) when they occur at the New Week Open Gap (NWOG). The indicator provides tiny dots plotted at the top of the candle for each detected pattern, keeping the chart clean and minimal. Below is a detailed description of the logic and components:
Candlestick Patterns Detected:
Bearish Engulfing:
A Bearish Engulfing pattern occurs when:
The current candle’s high is above the previous candle’s high.
The current candle’s close is below the previous candle’s low.
This pattern signals a potential downtrend and is marked by a red dot at the top of the candle.
Bullish Engulfing:
A Bullish Engulfing pattern occurs when:
The current candle’s low is below the previous candle’s low.
The current candle’s close is above the previous candle’s high.
This pattern signals a potential uptrend and is marked by a green dot at the top of the candle.
Inside Bar:
An Inside Bar pattern occurs when:
The current candle’s high is lower than the previous candle’s high.
The current candle’s low is higher than the previous candle’s low.
This pattern indicates a period of consolidation and possible breakout or breakdown, and is marked by a blue dot at the top of the candle.
New Week Open Gap (NWOG) Condition:
The patterns (Bearish Engulfing, Bullish Engulfing, and Inside Bar) are only considered valid if the candles occur within or touch the range of the New Week Open Gap (NWOG).
The NWOG is defined as the gap between:
The Friday close (previous week’s closing price).
The Monday open (current week’s opening price).
If the signal patterns (Bullish Engulfing, Bearish Engulfing, Inside Bar) align with the NWOG, a tiny dot is plotted at the top of the candle where the pattern occurs.
Visual Representation:
Red Dots: Indicate Bearish Engulfing signals that occur at the NWOG.
Green Dots: Indicate Bullish Engulfing signals that occur at the NWOG.
Blue Dots: Indicate Inside Bar Breakdown signals that occur at the NWOG.
Each dot is plotted as a tiny circle at the top of the candle, ensuring the chart remains minimal and clean without cluttering the view.
Key Features:
Minimal and Clean: The indicator only plots tiny dots at the top of the candles for the detected signals. No additional lines, labels, or other visual elements clutter the chart.
Customizable Signal Colors: Users can customize the colors for each signal type (Bearish Engulfing, Bullish Engulfing, and Inside Bar).
Alerts: Alerts are included for all detected patterns (Bullish Engulfing, Bearish Engulfing, Inside Bar) at the NWOG.
Alerts:
Bearish Engulfing Detected: Alerts when a Bearish Engulfing pattern occurs at the NWOG.
Bullish Engulfing Detected: Alerts when a Bullish Engulfing pattern occurs at the NWOG.
Inside Bar Breakdown Detected: Alerts when an Inside Bar Breakdown pattern occurs at the NWOG.
This indicator is helpful for traders who want to focus on clean, easy-to-spot patterns and trade based on market conditions near the New Week Open Gap (NWOG). The tiny dots ensure that only relevant signals are displayed without any distractions.
Enhanced Buy/Sell Pressure, Volume, and Trend Bar analysisEnhanced Buy/Sell Pressure, Volume, and Trend Bar Analysis Indicator
Overview
This indicator is designed to help traders identify buy and sell pressure, volume changes, and overall trend direction in the market. It combines multiple concepts like price action, volume, and trend analysis, candlestick anaysis to provide a comprehensive view of market dynamics. The visual elements are intuitive, making it suitable for traders at different levels. This indicator works together with Enhanced Pressure MTF Screener which is a screener based of this indicator to make it easier to see Bullish/Bearish pressures and trend across multiple timeframes.
Image below: is the Enhanced Buy/Sell Pressure, Volume, and Trend Bar Analysis with the Enhanced Pressure MTF Screener indicator both active together.
Key Features
1.Buy/Sell Pressure Identification
Buy Pressure: Calculated based on price movement where the close price is higher than the opening price.
Sell Pressure: Calculated when the closing price is equal to or lower than the opening price.These pressures help you understand whether buyers or sellers are more dominant for each bar.
2.Volume Analysis
Normalized Volume: Volume data is normalized, making it easier to compare volume levels over different periods.
Volume Histogram: The volume is also presented as a histogram for easy visualization, showing whether the current volume is higher or lower compared to the average.
3.Simplified Coloring Option
You can choose to simplify the coloring of bars to reflect the dominant pressure: green for bullish pressure and red for bearish pressure. This makes it visually easier to identify who is in control. When simplified coloring is disabled, the bars' colors will represent the combined effect of buy and sell pressure.
4.Heikin-Ashi Candles for Pressure Calculation
The indicator includes an option to use Heikin-Ashi candles instead of traditional candles to calculate buy and sell pressure. Heikin-Ashi candles are known for smoothing out price action and providing a clearer trend representation.
5.Trend Background Coloring
This feature uses exponential moving averages (EMAs) to determine the trend:
Short-Term EMA vs. Long-Term EMA: When the short-term EMA is above the long-term EMA, the trend is considered bullish, and vice versa.
The background color changes based on the identified trend: green for an uptrend and red for a downtrend. This feature helps visualize the overall market direction at a glance.
6.Signals for Key Price Actions
The indicator plots various symbols to signal important price movements:
Bullish Close (▲): Indicates a strong upward movement where the close price crosses above the open.
Bearish Close (▼): Indicates a downward movement where the close price falls below the open.
Higher High (•): Highlights new highs compared to previous bars, useful for confirming an uptrend.
Lower Low (•): Highlights lower lows compared to previous bars, which can indicate a downtrend or bearish pressure.
Calculations Explained
1.Buy and Sell Pressure Calculation
The buy pressure is determined by the price range (high - low) if the closing price is above the opening price, indicating an increase in value.
The sell pressure is similarly calculated when the closing price is equal to or below the opening price.
The indicator uses the Average True Range (ATR) for normalization. Normalizing helps you compare pressure across different periods, regardless of market volatility.
2.Volume Normalization
Volume Normalization: To make volume comparable across different periods, the indicator normalizes it using the Simple Moving Average (SMA) of volume over a user-defined length.
Volume Histogram: The histogram provides a clear representation of volume changes compared to the average, making it easier to spot unusual activity that may indicate market shifts.
3.Combined Pressure Calculation
The indicator calculates a combined pressure value by subtracting sell pressure from buy pressure.
When combined pressure is positive, buying is dominant, and when negative, selling is dominant. This helps in visually understanding the ongoing momentum.
4.Trend Calculation
The indicator uses two EMAs to determine the trend:
Short-Term EMA (default 14-period) to capture recent price movements.
Long-Term EMA (default 50-period) to provide a broader trend perspective.
By comparing these EMAs on a higher timeframe, the indicator can identify whether the trend is up or down, making it easier for traders to align their trades with the larger market movement.
Inputs and Customization
The indicator provides several options for customization, allowing you to adjust it to your preferences:
SMA Length: Determines the lookback period for moving averages and volume normalization. A longer length provides more smoothing, whereas a shorter length makes the indicator more responsive.
Buy/Sell/Volume Colors: Customize the colors used to represent buying, selling, and volume to suit your preferences.
Heikin Ashi Option: Toggle between using Heikin Ashi or traditional OHLC (Open-High-Low-Close) candles for pressure calculations.
Trend Timeframe and EMA Periods: You can choose different timeframes and EMA periods for trend analysis to suit your trading strategy.
How to Use This Indicator
Identifying Market Momentum: Use the buy/sell pressure columns to see which side (buyers or sellers) is in control. Positive pressure combined with green color indicates strong buying, while red indicates selling.
Volume Confirmation: Check the volume area plot and histogram. High volume coupled with strong pressure is a sign of conviction, meaning the current move has backing from market participants.
Trend Identification: The trend background color helps identify the overall trend direction. Trade in the direction of the trend (e.g., take long positions during a green background).
Signal Indicators: The plotted symbols like "Bullish Close" and "Bearish Close" provide visual signals of key price actions, useful for timing entry or exit points.
Practical use Example
Scenario: The market is consolidating, and you see alternating green and red bars.
Action: Wait for a consistent sequence of green bars (buy pressure) along with a green background (uptrend) to consider going long, although you can go long without having a green background, the background adds confirmation layer.
Scenario: The market has several bearish closes (red ▼ symbols) accompanied by increasing volume.
Action: This could indicate strong selling pressure. If the background also turns red, it might be a good time to exit long positions or consider shorting.
Higher timeframe pressure and volume: Another way to use the indicator is to check buy/sell volume and pressure of the higher timeframe say weekly or daily or any timeframe you consider higher, once you’ve identified or feel confident in which direction the bar is going along with the full picture of trend, you can go to the lower timeframe and wait for it to sync with the higher timeframe to consider a long or a short. It is also easier to see when markets sync up by also applying the Enhanced Pressure MTF Screener which works in companion to this indicator.
Visual Cues and Interpretation
Combined Pressure Plot: The green and red column plot at the bottom of the chart represents the dominance between buying and selling. Tall green bars signify strong buying, while tall red bars indicate selling dominance.
Trend Background: Helps visualize the overall direction without manually drawing trend lines. When the background turns green, it generally indicates that the shorter-term moving average has crossed above the longer-term average—a sign of a bullish trend.
To Summarize shortly
The Enhanced Buy/Sell Pressure, Volume, and Trend Bar Analysis Indicator is an advanced but simple tool designed to help traders visually understand market dynamics. It combines different aspects of market analysis of candle pressure from buyers and sellers, volume confirmation, and trend identification into a single view, which can assist both new and experienced traders in making informed trading decisions.
This indicator:
Saves time by simplifying market analysis.
Provides clear visual cues for buy/sell pressure, volume, and trend.
Offers customizable settings to suit individual trading styles.
Always, I am happy to share my creations with you all for free. If you guys have cool ideas you would like to share, or suggestions for improvements the comment is below and I hope this overview gave an idea of how to use the indicator :D
Renko Bars for Forex by Darkoexe (no repainting)This indicator achieves plotting Renko bars with no repainting by resetting the open of the first Renko bar every market open after the FOREX market close. The indicator displays Renko bars for a timeframe chart which means multiple Renko bars can appear in the same timeframe as a single chart candle. This is because Renko bars aren't time bound, they are formed based on price movement. Whenever multiple Renko bars would appear in the timeframe of a single chart candle, the Renko bars will be displayed in a stacked manner meaning the Renko bars will be stacked on top of each other. If the Renko bars stacked are green, the top Renko bar close is the Renko close price of the timeframe. Whenever there's no Renko price movement for a specific candles timeframe, there will be a shadow of the color of the previous Renko bar displayed. These shadows can go on for a while if there's no significant price movement or if the Renko brick size input parameter is set too high.
There's 2 ways to calculate the size of each Renko bar. The first way (the default way) uses a fixed fixed brick size where you can choose the size of each brick. The second way uses a dynamic brick size which just uses the ATR with whatever length you would like to determine the brick size for each Renko bar. The dynamic option also has a factor input which would be multiplied with the calculated ATR to determine the brick size. To use the dynamic option, just check the box in the inputs section labeled "Dynamic Renko Box Size (uses the ATR for renko box size)".
Enjoy!!!
Inside and Outside BarsInside Bar:
An inside bar forms when the high and low range of a candlestick is within the high and low range of the previous candlestick.
In other words, the current candlestick's high is lower than the previous candlestick's high, and the current candlestick's low is higher than the previous candlestick's low.
Inside bars indicate a period of consolidation or indecision in the market. They often occur after a strong move in price and can signal a potential reversal or continuation of the trend, depending on the context.
Outside Bar:
An outside bar (or engulfing bar) forms when the high and low range of a candlestick completely engulfs the high and low range of the previous candlestick.
In bullish outside bars, the current candlestick's high is higher than the previous candlestick's high, and the low is lower than the previous candlestick's low.
In bearish outside bars, the current candlestick's high is lower than the previous candlestick's high, and the low is higher than the previous candlestick's low.
Outside bars often indicate a significant shift in market sentiment. Bullish outside bars suggest increased bullish momentum, while bearish outside bars suggest increased bearish momentum.
Divergent Bar Strategy [declarative] v0.2Divergent Bar Strategy v0.2
Divergent Bar is a price action that signals potential trend reversal.
This strategy uses repeating divergent bars during a bearish local trend as signals to issue multiple averaging long orders in the direction of potentially emerging bullish trend. As the local trend reverses from bearish to bullish, position could become profitable and is closed by an opposite signal.
As an averaging strategy, this strategy can accumulate substantial order sizes, so this implementation uses a stop loss which is adjusted dynamically according to the current position size to protect deposit.
What you see on a chart:
Greenish background under the divergent bars. This designates detected divergent signals.
Alligator Fast Period and Required Bar Amplitude affect the amount of divergent bars detected.
Red green and blue alligator lines display the alligator indicator used as part of divergent bar detection. In general, you don’t need to see it, you can color the lines transparent in the Style section.
Green triangles designate placed long orders. Required Divergents for Long Cummulative Signal parameter affects those signals.
Parameters and default values:
Alligator Fast Period, default 9.
Length of the alligator fast EMA. The alligator indicator used to filter a divergent bar. A bar is considered divergent only if it is located below the alligator for bollish signal and above for a bearish. In general you can leave default value, as the period 9 corresponds to a reasonable value for an alligator, used for bars on a specific timeframe.
Required Bar Amplitude (%), default 0.4.
This is an important parameter that needs to be adjusted for different timeframes. It specifies minimum size of candle shadow used to detect divergent bars. Higher values produce more false signals, lower values tend produce only strong signals. Be careful, because it also filters out bearish signals used to close the trades, so you need a bearish signal to appear. If you filter small signals you risk ending up with a trade that does not close in profit. You need to find a balance here.
Required Divergents for Long Cummulative Signal, default 3.
Divergent bar does not necessarily signal an immidiate trend reversal. Sometimes several signals need to accumulate. This parameter specifies the count at which the orders start. If you increase this count, orders are only placed after the count is achieved, so your position has bigger chance to go in profit sooner. It does not necessarily mean the most profitable position.
Required Divergents for Short Cummulative Signal, default 1.
It is the same as for long positions, but the opposite.
These signals are used to close the trades. Higher value can mean that a take profit signal would happen at potentially higher price, but be aware that it could also lead to missign oportunity to take profit if there is not enough signals in the sequence.
Long Order Size (%), default 5.0.
Percentage of deposit used for the first order in sequence. Actual order size is comuted dynamically, it depends on Reinvest and parameter. In case Reinvest is turned on, it is computed relative to the current equity, that is initial deposit and netprofit combined.
Reinvest (only for backtesting), default - turned off.
Affects Long Order Size. If turned off, order size is computed according to percentage of total equity, that is initial deposit + net profit. In an automated strategy, you should not turn this parameter on, because this way you can’t control the position size, as it growith or reduces during the actual period of the study.
Martingale, default 1.0.
Affects dynamically computed order size. First order is calculated in percentage from deposit or equity, as specified by Long Order Size and Reinvest parameters.
Order will be scaled by the following values:
Martingale = 0.0 - only the first order would be placed.
Martingale = 1.0 - equal orders will be placed in sequence, with leads to unlimited position growth.
Martingale = 1.3 - orders will be scaled by 1.3, 1.69, 2.197 etc. That is geometric increasing sequnce, which leads to unlimited position growth.
Sequential long order size is multiplied by the martingale value.
Martingale < 1.0 - orders will be scaled by geometrically decreasing sequence, resulting in limited growth of position.
Long Stop Loss (%), default 10.0.
Dynamically adjusted stop loss, which is computed according to the current average position price, so the value potentially lost is proportional to the percentage specified.
Show Long Stop Loss Line, default is off.
Draws a graph line corresponding to the dynamic stop loss on the chart.
Bullish Line Visual Offset (% of price), default -10
For convenience, the count of sequential orders is drawn as a green line over a black EMA on the same chart, offset from an EMA. This is just a visual aid to visualize the strength of long signal as divergent bars accumulate in sequence. EMA is just used so the visual cue is always displayed somewhere close the price graph.
Bollinger Bands Inside barthe indicator name is Bollinger Band inside bar because it uses Bollinger Band and inside bar to take counter-trend positions in the market. whenever this pattern is formed then it can be used to take an entry into the market. the candlestick pattern recognizes 3 candle candlestick. first the mother bar i.e. the medium to the big size candle that intersects with the upper and the lower levels of the Bollinger band. the second candle should be an inside bar i.e. the high and low of the current bar should be less than the previous bar. finally, the last bar who's low should be less than the mother bar in case of the mother bar is at upper levels and if the mother bar is at lower levels then the candle's high should be more than the mother bar. the stop-loss should be high and low of the mother bar respectively. entry should be taken as soon as the low and high of the mother bar is taken out respectively. target should be 1:1 or 20 sma or lower Bollinger band in case the entry is taken from the top. works best if there is a trend and the market takes a pullback and this pattern is formed.
Inside Bar SetupScript Details
- This script plots Inside Bar for given day in selected time-frame (applicable only for Timeframes < Day)
- Basis plotted inside bar, relevant targets are marked on the chart
- Targets can be customised from script settings. Example, if range of mother candle is 10 points, then T1 is 10 * x above/below mother candle and T2 is 10 * y above/below mother candle. This x & y are configured via script settings
How to use this script ?
- This script works well on 10-15 mins timeframe for stocks, 15/30 mins timeframe for nifty index and 30/60 mins time frame for bank nifty index
- If mother candle high is broken, take long trade with SL of mother candle low and if low is broken, take short trade with SL of mother candle high
Remember:
1. Above logic is to be combined with support/resistances i.e. price action. This script is an add-on to price action analysis giving you more conviction.
2. If range of mother candle is very high, it is recommended to avoid the trade.
3. Basis inside bar formed on higher time frame, take trade on basis of lower time frame i.e if inside bar is formed on 60 mins, take trade on the basis of 10-15 mins time frame
Example:
1. As seen in the chart, Nifty is near it's resistance and we are seeing Inside Bar being formed, In such scenario, even if High of Mother Candle is broken, we should be more interested to short as we are near resistance and probability of getting our targets in long side is less.
2. So, if I see breakdown of mother candle i.e. price going below low of mother candle, we will short with SL of high of mother candle.
3. As seen in the chart, both the targets are achieved.
Additional Info:
1. Targets on Long/Short Side can be configured via settings. For indices 1 times/1.5 times the range works well.
2. This script plots targets basis the first inside bar formed in the day for selected time frame.
3. Inside bars formed through out the day are coloured separately but lines are plotted only on the basis of 1st formed inside bar as this strategy works well for the first formed inside bar)
4. Don't forget to check volume in case of breakout/breakdown.
Note:
1. Mother Candle - First Candle of Inside Bar
2. Child Candle - Candle formed inside Mother Candle (Second Candle of Inside Bar)
Happy Trading :)

INSIDE BAR This indicator identifies Inside Bar.
Inside Bar is an indecisive setup where traders are not sure of the direction which is reflected in the bar range which is usually narrower.
The day following Inside Bar usually would be a decisive bar with wide range.
This decisive bar can be exploited if traded with discipline.
The steps to follow are :
At EOD :
1) Use daily charts for locating Inside Bar with this indicator on.
2) Ensure you keep the parameter prev range Vs inside bar as 0.25 irrespective of default value. This means that the previous bar range is greater than the inside bar range by 25%.
3) Try going through all FNO scrips to locate inside bar (as there is no scanner in Trading View).
4) Once an Inside Bar scrip is located, earmark them or send them to watchlist.
5) Now you will have a watchlist with around 5-6 scrips.
Next trading day at market opening:
5) When the market opens, wait till 9.45 am (first half an hour).
6) Mark the first half an hour high and low. These are opening range high and opening range low.
7) If price breaks out decisively on the upside above opening range high, buy with a stop of opening range low. Target can be based on super trend or ema or any other method. If price breaks out decisively on the downside below opening range low, short with a stop of opening range high.
8) Ensure you follow disciplined position sizing.
Good luck.
Nifty Smart Zones & Breakout Bars(5min TF only) by Chaitu50cNifty Smart Zones & Breakout Bars is a purpose-built intraday trading tool, tested extensively on Nifty50 and recommended for Nifty50 use only.
All default settings are optimised specifically for Nifty50 on the 5-minute timeframe for maximum accuracy and clarity.
Why Last Bar of the Session Matters
The last candle of a trading session often represents the final battle between buyers and sellers for that day.
It encapsulates closing sentiment, influenced by end-of-day positioning, profit booking, and institutional activity.
The high and low of this bar frequently act as strong intraday support/resistance in the following sessions.
Price often reacts around these levels, especially when combined with volume surges.
Core Features
Session Last-Candle Zones
Plots a horizontal box at the high and low of the last candle in each session.
Boxes extend to the right to track carry-over levels into new sessions.
Uses a stateless approach — past zones reappear if relevant.
Smart Suppression System
When more than your Base Sessions (No Suppression) are shown, newer zones overlapping or within a proximity distance (in points) of older zones are hidden.
Older zones take priority, reducing chart clutter while keeping critical levels.
Breakout Bar Coloring
Highlights breakout bars in four categories:
Up Break (1-bar)
Down Break (1-bar)
Up Break (2-bar)
Down Break (2-bar)
Breakouts use a break buffer (in ticks) to filter noise.
Toggle coloring on/off instantly.
Volume Context (User Tip)
For best use, pair with volume analysis.
High-volume breakouts from last-session zones have greater conviction and can signal sustained momentum.
Usage Recommendations
Instrument: Nifty50 only (tested & optimised).
Timeframe: 5-minute chart for best results.
Approach:
Watch for price interaction with the plotted last-session zones.
Combine zone breaks with bar color signals and volume spikes for higher-probability trades.
Use suppression to focus on key, non-redundant levels.
Why This Tool is Different
Unlike standard support/resistance plotting, this indicator focuses on session-closing levels, which are more reliable than arbitrary highs/lows because they capture the final market consensus for the session.
The proximity-based suppression ensures your chart stays clean, while breakout paints give instant visual cues for momentum shifts.

// upward breakout, red for bearish zones after a downward breakout—based on the last
// breakout direction (trend). Bars outside the box use a neutral color.
// • Provides an at‑a‑glance view of whether price remains in a bullish or bearish box.
//
// 3. Zone Entry & Breakout Signals:
// • "New Bull Box" / "New Bear Box" labels mark each new zone formation at the reset bar.
// • "Enter Bull Zone" and "Enter Bear Zone" tiny labels flag when price first crosses into
// the lower or upper half of the box, spotlighting momentum within the range.
// • Classic breakout symbols (▲ for buys, ▼ for sells) appear when price decisively crosses
// the box mid‑lines, with optional filtering by trend.
// • Optional X markers identify potential fakeout attempts beyond the box boundaries.
//
// 4. Customizable Inputs:
// • LENGTH: Maximum bars before auto‑reset if no breakout occurs.
// • CHANNEL WIDTH: ATR multiplier controlling box height.
// • Color settings for channel lines, fills, labels, and both inside/outside bar coloring.
// • Options to show fakeouts (X signals) and filter ▲/▼ by breakout trend.
//
// USE CASES:

PumpC RSI NTZ BarsPumpC RSI NTZ Bars — Slope-Aware RSI Momentum Overlay
The PumpC RSI NTZ Bars indicator builds on the classic RSI by combining it with slope detection and custom bar highlighting, helping traders quickly identify strong momentum breakouts while avoiding sideways chop — the (NTZ) or No Trade Zone .
What is (NTZ)?
(NTZ) stands for No Trade Zone — the neutral RSI area between bullish and bearish thresholds. In this zone, RSI lacks directional strength, which often reflects indecision or consolidation in price. This indicator helps visually separate the chop from true momentum, so you can trade the breakout, not the noise .
Core Features
Dynamic RSI-Based Bar Coloring with Slope Awareness
Bars change color based on RSI value and its slope:
Bright Green: RSI ≥ Bullish Threshold and sloping upward
Teal Green: RSI ≥ Bullish Threshold but sloping downward
Bright Red: RSI ≤ Bearish Threshold and sloping downward
Orange: RSI ≤ Bearish Threshold but sloping upward
White: RSI is between thresholds (NTZ)
Slope Detection Logic
RSI slope is used to confirm directional bias and filter out weak or fading momentum.
Clean Visual Integration
Choose how signals appear: full bar color, border-only style, background shading, or a mix of all three.
RSI Smoothing Option
Optional smoothing to reduce noise — especially useful on faster timeframes.
Built-In Alerts
RSI crossing above the bullish threshold with an upward slope
RSI crossing below the bearish threshold with a downward slope
User Inputs & Customization Options
RSI Length: Default 14
RSI Source: Default Close
Smooth RSI: On or Off
Smoothing Length: Default 2
Bullish Threshold: Default 60
Bearish Threshold: Default 40
Bar Highlight Style: Full Bar or Border Only
Display Mode: Bar Color, Background, or Both
How to Use It
Step 1 – Adjust Your RSI Settings:
Start by setting the RSI Length (default is 14) and choosing which price source to use — typically close , but you can experiment with hl2 , ohlc4 , etc.
You can also turn on smoothing if you want to reduce noise, especially on fast timeframes like the 1m or 5m chart.
Step 2 – Define Your No Trade Zone (NTZ):
The NTZ is the space between the bullish and bearish thresholds (default 60 and 40).
This is where momentum is weak and price is often ranging or chopping. You don’t want to trade in this zone — you're waiting for RSI to break out of it with conviction.
Step 3 – Choose Your Visual Style:
You can choose to: Highlight the entire candle (Full Bar)
Just highlight the outline (Border Only)
Add a background color behind the chart
Or use a combination of the above This makes the signal easy to see without changing your whole chart look.
Step 4 – Read the Colors for Quick Clarity:
Bright Green / Bright Red = Strong Momentum (with RSI slope confirmation)
Teal / Orange = Momentum is weakening — RSI value is above/below threshold but losing slope strength
White = RSI is in the No Trade Zone (NTZ) — not enough strength to trade
Use this color feedback to stay out during weak periods and act when the trend gains strength.
Step 5 – Use Alerts for Clean Signals:
Set alerts when RSI breaks out of the NTZ with slope confirmation .
These are high-quality signals you can use to trigger your setups or review potential entries.

Volume-RSI Colored Bars
The Volume Indicator, used in conjunction with the embedded Relative Strength Index (RSI), is a powerful tool for making informed trading decisions. Let’s break down how this indicator works and how it can assist you in your trading strategy.
Volume Indicator:
The Volume Indicator tracks the volume of trades occurring in a specific timeframe. Volume shows the number of shares or contracts traded, which can reveal the strength of a price move. If price is moving higher with increasing volume, it generally confirms that the move has more strength, indicating the potential for continuation. Conversely, if the price is moving lower with increasing volume, it indicates strong bearish momentum.
Volume Clusters:
In the chart, we can see various volume clusters highlighted in green, red, and grey. The green bars represent high volume, which can signal strong buying pressure. The red bars represent low volume, signaling that selling pressure is low. Grey bars indicate average volume.
High Volume (Green Bars): High buying pressure, indicating that there may be a strong move in the direction of the price.
Low Volume (Red Bars): Potential signal for a weak move, indicating a lack of participation in the current trend.
RSI (Relative Strength Index):
RSI is a momentum oscillator that indicates whether a market is overbought or oversold. The RSI ranges from 0 to 100, with readings above 70 suggesting an overbought market and readings below 30 suggesting an oversold market.
The RSI is also embedded in the indicator to give a better context when combined with volume. It adds an extra layer of analysis to interpret the price action.
How to Use Volume Indicator with RSI:
Confirming Breakouts:
If you see a breakout in price (an upward movement or downward movement) and the volume indicator shows high volume, this confirms the strength of the breakout.
If the RSI also supports the breakout (for example, it is crossing above 50 or above 70 for an uptrend), it further validates the trade.
Identifying Reversals:
When the price is reaching overbought or oversold levels (RSI above 70 or below 30) and there is low volume (red bars), this may indicate a potential reversal.
If the price is oversold and RSI shows values below 30 with increasing volume (green bars), this could signal a potential buying opportunity as a reversal might occur.
Volume Divergence:
If the price is making new highs, but the volume is declining (red bars), it may signal weakness in the trend, despite the RSI indicating strength. This divergence can help traders anticipate a potential reversal or breakout.
Example from the Chart:
Strong Buy Signal: The price is making an upward movement, the volume bars are turning green (indicating strong buying pressure), and RSI is rising above 50.
Bearish Divergence: You may see RSI moving higher, but volume bars are turning red (indicating weak momentum). This could signal that the upward movement lacks strength, suggesting a potential reversal.
By combining these two indicators, the Volume Indicator and the RSI, traders can make more informed decisions on whether the current trend is sustainable, or if a reversal or breakout is likely.
In conclusion, using the Volume Indicator and RSI together allows for:
Identifying high-volume breakouts and reversals
Filtering out weak price movements
Confirming trends with volume and momentum
This combination enhances trading strategies by providing clear signals of market strength or weakness, helping traders optimize their entry and exit points effectively.

AndyB Combined ATR and Outside BarsAndyB Combined ATR and Outside Bars Indicator
This indicator integrates ATR (Average True Range) with outside bars to provide traders with a unique perspective on market momentum and volatility. By focusing exclusively on ATR and outside bars, this tool highlights key price action events that may signal trend continuation, reversals, or points of interest (POIs) for potential entry or exit points.
What Makes It Unique: This indicator stands out by combining two powerful concepts:
ATR Bars: ATR is a common volatility measure, but this indicator leverages it to detect price movements that exceed expected volatility ranges. When the price closes above or below the ATR-based thresholds, the indicator generates signals to help traders spot potential momentum shifts.
Outside Bars: Outside bars are price action patterns where a candle’s high surpasses the previous candle’s high, and its low dips below the previous candle’s low. These bars often indicate heightened volatility and can be a strong indicator of potential breakouts or reversals.
The combination of ATR and outside bars provides a unique approach to volatility-based trading, giving traders insight into market dynamics that may not be evident through standard trend or momentum indicators.
How to Use It:
With Price Action or Moving Averages: This indicator is most effective when used alongside price action analysis or moving averages. Traders should look for higher highs and lower lows to confirm potential long or short signals.
Momentum and Reversal Detection: The indicator can be used to confirm momentum in a given direction, flagging potential reversal points or continuation signals based on the ATR’s volatility thresholds and outside bar price patterns.
This indicator is designed to focus purely on ATR-based signals and outside bar patterns, offering traders a clear and concise tool for analyzing market volatility and price action in one simplified indicator.
VIX Bars [CrossTrade]In simple terms, this indicator colors your chart bars based on the VIX levels. We know that high volatility is unstainable and will naturally regress to a calmer market, therefore highlighting the bars where VIX is at extreme highs can sometimes indicate a market turning point. Consider pairing this indicator with my VIX Heatmap indicator for a complete picture of volatility.
Customizable VIX Levels: You can set your own thresholds for when the bars turn green or red. Green bars pop up when the VIX is above your set upper level (default is 30) - kind of like a heads-up that things might get bumpy. Red bars show up when the VIX dips below your lower threshold (default is 15), signaling calmer waters.
Optional Donchian Channel Filter: The Donchian Channel filter looks at the highest highs and lowest lows over your chosen period (default's 52 days) and only colors the bars if they match the filter's criteria. This adds an extra layer of confirmation that the colored bars at at a major high or low.
Visual Simplicity: The indicator keeps things visually straightforward. No cluttered screen, just colored bars telling you a story about market vibes. Alert come standard to signal those potential bottom or top bars based on the VIX being at your preferred extreme levels.
In essence, "VIX Bars" is like having a volatility radar on your chart. It doesn't make predictions, but it sure gives you a neat, color-coded heads-up on market sentiment. Great for adding an extra dimension to your analysis without getting all tangled up in complex indicators!
