Advanced Technical Range and Expectancy Estimator [SS]Hello everyone,
This indicator is a from of momentum based probability modelling. It is derived from my own approaches to probability modelling but just simplified a bit.
How it works:
The indicator looks at various technical, including stochastics, RSI, MFI and Z-Score, to determine the likely sentiment. All of these, with the exception of Z-Score, are momentum based indicators and can alert us to likely sentiment. However, instead of us making the subjective determination ourselves as to whether the RSI or MFI or Stochastics are bullish, the indicator will look at previous instances of these occurrences, and tally the bullish and bearish follow throughs that happened. It will also calculate the average target price that was hit, under similar conditions, on the same timeframe.
The Z-Score is your "tie breaker". It is not a momentum based indicator and measures something a little different (the standard deviation and over-extension of the stock). For this reason, it provides an alternative assessment and tends to be a bit more reliable in times of low momentum.
Back-test Results:
The indicator back-tests itself over the previous 100 candles. I have limited it to 100 candles for pragmatic considerations (it has to back-test each technical individually and increasing the BT length will slow and potentially error out the indicator) as well as accuracy considerations.
One thing I have noticed in my years of trying to crack the code and develop probability models for tickers, is historical accuracy doesn't always matter because sentiment is always changing. You need to see what it has done over the most recent 100 to 200 candles.
There are two back-test windows, one for the price targets and the other for the sentiment accuracy. The most effective/most accurate will highlight green, the least effective/least accurate will highlight red:
In the image above, you can see that the most accurate predictor of sentiment is Z-Score, with a 90.32% accuracy rate over the past 100 candles.
The most accurate predictor of price is MFI, with a 60% (for bull targets) and 42% (for bear targets)accuracy rate.
Anchoring Points:
The indicator permits you to anchor by two points. The default setting is anchoring by previous candle. If you plan to use this as an oscillator, to see the current prediction for the current candle you are viewing, then you will need to leave this default setting. It will pull the data from the previous candle and give you the data for the current candle you are on.
If you are assess the likely sentiment for the next day after the day has closed off, you will want to anchor by current candle. This will take the current technicals that the day has closed off with and run the assessment for you.
Customizability
You can customize the technicals by source and length of assessment.
They are all defaulted to the traditional settings of these indicators, but if you want to customize your model to try and improve or enhance accuracy in one way or another, you are free and able to do so!
I do suggest leaving the defaults as they seem to work particular well :-).
Thresholds
Thresholds are the tolerance levels that we permit for our technical search range. If you want them to be exactly identical, then you can set it to 0. If you want it to be extremely similar, you can set it to 0.01. This will hone in on the ranges you are interest in and you can see how it affects your accuracy by reviewing the results in the back-test tables.
Keep Static Colour Option
I want to make a quick note on the "Keep Static Colour" option that is in your settings menu.
The primary table that shows you the probability and price targets change colours based on the accuracy of the assessment. This is so, if you are using a mobile device or smaller screen and can't have the back-test results open at the same time, you can see still which are the most reliable results. However, if you have the back-test tables open and you find these colour changes too distracted, you can toggle on the "Keep Static Colour" and it will resort the colour of the table to a solid white:
Show Technicals
The indicator can show you the current technical values if you are using it in place of an oscillator. Its less pivotal as its making the assessment for you, but just for your reference if you want to see what the current MFI, Z-Score or Stochastics etc. are, you have that option as well.
All Timeframes Permitted
You can view Weekly, Monthly, Hourly, 5 minute, 1 minute, its all supported!
That's the indicator in a nutshell.
Hope you enjoy and leave your questions below.
Safe trades everyone!
ADR % RangesThis indicator is designed to visually represent percentage lines from the open of the day. The % amount is determined by X amount of the last days to create an average...or Average Daily Range (ADR).
1. ADR Percentage Lines: The core function of the script is to apply lines to the chart that represent specific percentage changes from the daily open. It first calculates the average over X amount of days and then displays two lines that are 1/3rd of that average. One line goes above the other line goes below. The other two lines are the full "range" of the average. These lines can act as boundaries or targets to know how an asset has moved recently. *Past performance is not indicative of current or future results.
The calculation for ADR is:
Step 1. Calculate Today's Range = DailyHigh - DailyLow
Step 2. Store this average after the day has completed
Step 3. Sum all day's ranges
Step 4. Divide by total number of days
Step 5. Draw on chart
2. Customizable Inputs: Users have the flexibility to customize the script through various inputs. This includes the option to display lines only for the current trading day (`todayonly`), and to select which lines are displayed. The user can also opt to show a table the displays the total range of previous days and the average range of those previous days.
3. No Secondary Timeframe: The ADR is computed based on whatever timeframe the chart is and does not reference secondary periods. Therefore the script cannot be used on charts greater than daily.
This script is can be used by all traders for any market. The trader might have to adjust the "X" number of days back to compute a historical average. Maybe they only want to know the average over the past week (5 days) or maybe the past month (20 days).
Narrow Range StrategyNarrow Range Strategy :
INTRODUCTION :
This strategy is based on the Narrow Range Day concept, implying that low volatility will generate higher volatility in the days ahead. The strategy sends us buy and sell signals with well-defined profit targets. It's a medium/long-term strategy. There's also a money management method that allows us to reinvest part of the profits or reduce the size of orders in the event of substantial losses.
NARROW RANGE (NR) DAY :
A Narrow Range Day is a day in which price variations are included in those of a specific day some time before. The high and low of this specific day form the "reference range". In general, we compare these variations with those of 4 or 7 days ago. The mathematical formula for finding an NR4 is :
If low > low(4) and high < high(4) :
nr = true
This implies that the current low is greater than the low of 4 days ago, and the current high is smaller than the high of 4 days ago. So today's volatility is lower than that of 4 days ago, and may be a sign of high volatility to come.
PARAMETERS :
Narrow Range Length : Corresponds to the number of candles back to compare current volatility. The default is 4, allowing comparison of current volatility with that of 4 candles ago.
Stop Loss : Percentage of the reference range on which to set an exit order to limit losses. The minimum value is 0.001, while the maximum is 1. The default value is 0.35.
Fixed Ratio : This is the amount of gain or loss at which the order quantity is changed. The default is 400, which means that for each $400 gain or loss, the order size is increased or decreased by an amount chosen by the user.
Increasing Order Amount : This is the amount to be added to or subtracted from orders when the fixed ratio is reached. The default is $200, which means that for every $400 gain, $200 is reinvested in the strategy. On the other hand, for every $400 loss, the order size is reduced by $200.
Initial capital : $1000
Fees : Interactive Broker fees apply to this strategy. They are set at 0.18% of the trade value.
Slippage : 3 ticks or $0.03 per trade. Corresponds to the latency time between the moment the signal is received and the moment the order is executed by the broker.
Important : A bot was used to test NR4 and NR7 with all possible Stop Losses in order to find out which combination generates the highest return on BITSTAMP:ETHUSD while limiting the drawdown. This strategy is the most optimal with an NR4 and a SL of 35% of the reference range size in 5D timeframe.
BUY AND SHORT SIGNALS :
When an NR is spotted, we create two stop orders on the high and low of the reference range. As soon as there's a breakout from this reference range (shown in blue on the chart), we open a position. We're LONG if there's a breakout on the high and SHORT if there's a breakout on the low. Executing a stop order cancels the second stop order.
RISK MANAGEMENT :
This strategy is subject to losses. We manage our risk with Stop Losses. The user is free to enter a SL as a percentage of the reference range. The maximum amount risked per trade therefore depends on the size of the range. The larger the range, the greater the risk. That's why we have set a maximum Stop Loss to 10% to limiting risks per trade.
The special feature of this strategy is that it targets a precise profit objective. This corresponds to the size of the reference range at the top of the high if you're LONG, or at the bottom of the low if you're short. In the same way, the larger the reference range, the greater the potential profits.
The risk reward remains the same for all trades and amounts to : 100/35 = 2.86. If the reference range is too high, we have set a SL to 10% of the trade value to limit losses. In that case, the risk reward is less than 2.86.
MONEY MANAGEMENT :
The fixed ratio method was used to manage our gains and losses. For each gain of an amount equal to the value of the fixed ratio, we increase the order size by a value defined by the user in the "Increasing order amount" parameter. Similarly, each time we lose an amount equal to the value of the fixed ratio, we decrease the order size by the same user-defined value. This strategy increases both performance and drawdown.
NOTE :
Please note that the strategy is backtested from 2017-01-01. As the timeframe is 5D, this strategy is a medium/long-term strategy. That's why only 37 trades were closed. Be careful, as the test sample is small and performance may not necessarily reflect what may happen in the future.
Enjoy the strategy and don't forget to take the trade :)

NSDT Regular CandlesWhen using Range charts on TradingView, the only candle appearance option is "Range Bars", which are those little thin ones that can be hard to see.
So I made this candle indicator that can be used to plot Regular Candles over the Range Bars for a standard view.
Here is the same chart - only showing the original Range Bars
Stockbee Momentum BurstThis is a script to color code bars based on the bullish- and bearish combination.
Bullish Combination
Percent: Price >= 4% from yesterday and Volume today > Yesterday
Dollar: Price >= 0.9 dollar from open
Base Requirements
- Price > Yesterday's close
- Price > Open
- Price is within 30% of high
- Todays price range >= Yesterdays price range
- Yesterday's move <= 2%
- Volume >= 100 000
Bearish Combination
Percent: Price <= 4% from yesterday and Volume today > Yesterday
Dollar: Price <= 0.9 dollar from open
Base Requirements
- Price < Yesterday's close
- Price < Open
- Price is within 30% of low
- Todays price range >= Yesterdays price range
- Yesterday's move >= -2%
- Minimum volume for each of last 3 days >= 100 000
Momentum Filter
These are based on the 10 and 20 EMA crossover, where the former above would indicate upward momentum and below downward momentum. This can help to narrow down the color code to continuation phases. The linked option will override all other momentum filters, bullish candles will be displayed when EMA 10 > 20 and bearish candles when EMA 10 < 20.
ATR+ Advanced Sessions ATR for DaterangeATR+ Advanced Sessions ATR for Daterange
The ATR+ adds the following additional filters to the stock ATR indicator by Tradingview:
- Calculates the overall average ATR for a user defined daterange, optionally filtered by trading session and selected weekdays, presented as a secondary line over the standard ATR line.
- Basic ATR line, with colour highlight to indicate the selected sessions, days and timeframe being calculated by the average ATR+ line.
- Average ATR+ line indicating the average of all ATRs within the defined timeframe, optionally filtered by instances of a selected trading session and selected weekdays.
- Customisable appearance.
- The ATR+ also includes the basic ATR configuration options typically found in the standard ATR by Tradingview, including period length and smoothing type. Defaults are set to the factory standards: 14 length, RMA smoothing type.
What Is the Average True Range (ATR)?
The ATR is a technical analysis tool that measures market volatility by decomposing the entire range asset price for that period. Investopedia describes the ATR as follows:
"The average true range (ATR) is a technical analysis indicator, introduced by market technician J. Welles Wilder Jr. in his book New Concepts in Technical Trading Systems, that measures market volatility by decomposing the entire range of an asset price for that period.
The true range indicator is taken as the greatest of the following: current high less the current low; the absolute value of the current high less the previous close; and the absolute value of the current low less the previous close. The ATR is then a moving average, generally using 14 days, of the true ranges."
For more information on the ATR and its calculations and use cases, see here:
Investopedia link here.
Tradingview link here.
Note
The indicator may time out if the number of bars being calculated is too long. If this happens, you will need to reduce the datetime range, or increase the chart timeframe in order to reduce the number of bars being calculated and the indicator will attempt to recalculate.
Dual Fibonacci Zone & Ranged Vol DCA Strategy - R3c0nTraderWhat does this do?
This is for educational purposes and allows one to backtest two Fibonacci Zones simultaneously. This also includes an option for Ranged Volume as a parameter.
Pre-requisites:
First off, this is a Long only strategy as I wrote it with DCA in mind. It cannot be used for shorting. Shorting defeats the purpose of a DCA bot which has a goal that is Long a position not Short a position. If you want to short, there are plenty of free scripts out there that do this.
You must have some base knowledge or experience with Fibonacci trading, understanding what is ADX, +DI (and -DI), etc.
You can use this script without a 3Commas account and see how 3Commas DCA Bot would perform. However, I highly recommend inexperienced uses get a free account and going through the tutorials, FAQ's and knowledgebase. This would give you a base understanding of the settings you will see in this strategy and why you will need to know them. Only then should you try testing this strategy with a paper bot.
Background
After I had created and released "Fibonacci Zone DCA Strategy", I began expanding and testing other ideas.
The first idea was to add Ranged Volume to the Fibonacci Zone DCA strategy which I wanted for providing further confirmation before entering a trade. The second idea was to add a second Fibonacci Zone that was just as configurable as the first Fibonacci Zone. I managed to add both and they can be easily enabled or disabled via the strategy settings menu.
Things Got Real Interesting
Things got real interesting when I started testing strategies with two Fibonacci zones. Here's a quick list of what I found I was able to do:
Mix and match exit strategies. I could set the Fib-1 zone strategy to exit with a take profit % and separately set the Fib-2 zone strategy to exit when the price crosses the top-high fib border
Trade the trend. A common phrase amongst traders is "the Trend is your friend" and with the help of an additional Fib Zone, I was able to trade the trend more often by using two different Fib Zone strategies which if configured properly can shorten time to re-deploy capital, increase number of closed trades, and in some cases increase net profit.
Trade both bull market uptrends and bear market downtrends in the same strategy. I found I could configure one Fib Zone strategy to be really good in uptrends and another Fib Zone strategy to be really good in downtrends. In some cases, with both Fib Zone strategies enabled together in a single strategy I got better results than if the strategies were backtested separately.
There are many other trade strategies I am finding with this. One could be to trade a convergence or divergence of the two different Fib Zones. This could possibly be achieved by setting one strategy to have different Fibonacci length.

Triple Average True Range Channel Definition: By ADAM HAYES from Investopedia -- Updated Jul 8, 2019
The average true range (ATR) is a technical analysis indicator that measures market volatility by decomposing the entire range of an asset price for that period. Specifically, ATR is a measure of volatility introduced by market technician J. Welles Wilder Jr. in his book, "New Concepts in Technical Trading Systems."
The true range indicator is taken as the greatest of the following: current high less the current low; the absolute value of the current high less the previous close; and the absolute value of the current low less the previous close. The average true range is then a moving average, generally using 14 days, of the true ranges.
I've added a channel perspective from a certain % from the Slow Average Length that user will have to configure depending of resolution and the markets instruments they chose...
Also a fill is used to easily point out when a high distance between a fast and a slow volatility analysis is occurring.
Which is also denotated with a shaped label...
Share and comment my work :)
Volume Range EventsChanges in the feelings (positive, negative, neutral) in the market concerning the valuation of an instrument are often preceded with sudden outbursts of buying and selling frenzies. The aim of this indicator is to report such outbursts. We can see them as expansions of volume, sometimes 10 times more than usual. and as extensions of the trading range, also sometimes 10 times more than usual (e.g. usual range is 10 cent suddenly a whole dollar.) The changes are calculated in such a way that these fit between plus and minus 100 percent, the bars are scaled in some sort of logarithmic way. The Emoline is the same as the one in the True Balance of Power indicator, which I already published
ONLY RISES ARE EVENTS
Sometimes analysts are tempted to give meaning to low volume or small ranges. These simply mean that the market has little interest in trading this instrument. I believe that in such cases the trader needs to wait for expansion and extension events to happen, then he can make a better guess of where the market is heading. As events often mark the beginning or ending of a trend, this indicator provides an early and clear signal, because it doesn’t bother us about non-events.
WHAT IS USUAL?
If the algorithm would use an average as a normal to scale volume or range events, then previous peaks will act as spoilers by making the average so high that a following peak is scaled too small. I developed a function, usual() , that kicks out all extremes of a ‘population of values’ and which returns the average of the non-extreme values. It can be called with any serial. This function is called by both algorithms that report volume and range peaks, which guarantees that the results are really comparable. As this function has a fixed look back of 8 periods, we might state that ‘usual’ is a short lived relative value. I think this doesn’t matter for the practical use of the indicator.
COLORING AND INTERPRETATION
I follow the categories in the ‘Better Volume Indicator’, published by LeazyBear, these are:
1. Climactic Volumes, event >40 % (this means peak is 1.5 X usual)
LIME: Climax Buying Volume, direction up, range event also > 30 %
RED: Climax Selling Volume, direction down, range event also > 30 %
AQUA: Climax Churning Volume, both directions, range event < 30%
2. Smaller Volumes, event <40 %
GREEN: Supportive Volume, both directions, if combined with range event
BLUE: Churning Volume, both directions, if not combined with range event (Professional Trading)
3. Just Range Events

Euclidean Range [InvestorUnknown]The Euclidean Range indicator visualizes price deviation from a moving average using a geometric concept Euclidean distance. It helps traders identify trend strength, volatility shifts, and potential overextensions in price behavior.
Euclidean Distance
Euclidean distance is a fundamental concept in geometry and machine learning. It measures the "straight-line distance" between two points in space. In time series analysis, it can be used to measure how far one sequence deviates from another over a fixed window.
euclidean_distance(src, ref, len) =>
var float sum_sq_diff = na
sum_sq_diff := 0.0
for i = 0 to len - 1
diff = src - ref
sum_sq_diff += diff * diff
math.sqrt(sum_sq_diff)
In this script, we calculate the Euclidean distance between the price (source) and a smoothed average (reference) over a user-defined window. This gives us a single scalar that reflects the overall divergence between price and trend.
How It Works
Moving Average Calculation: You can choose between SMA, EMA, or HMA as your reference line. This becomes the "baseline" against which the actual price is compared.
Distance Band Construction: The Euclidean distance between the price and the reference is calculated over the Window Length. This value is then added to and subtracted from the average to form dynamic upper and lower bands, visually framing the range of deviation.
Distance Ratios and Z-Scores: Two distance ratios are computed: dist_r = distance / price (sensitivity to volatility); dist_v = price / distance (sensitivity to compression or low-volatility states)
Both ratios are normalized using a Z-score to standardize their behavior and allow for easier interpretation across different assets and timeframes.
Z-Score Plots: Z_r (white line) highlights instances of high volatility or strong price deviation; Z_v (red line) highlights low volatility or compressed price ranges.
Background Highlighting (Optional): When Z_v is dominant and increasing, the background is colored using a gradient. This signals a possible build-up in low volatility, which may precede a breakout.
Use Cases
Detect volatile expansions and calm compression zones.
Identify mean reversion setups when price returns to the average.
Anticipate breakout conditions by observing rising Z_v values.
Use dynamic distance bands as adaptive support/resistance zones.
Notes
The indicator is best used with liquid assets and medium-to-long windows.
Background coloring helps visually filter for squeeze setups.

Opening Range Retest█ OVERVIEW
This indicator shows the opening range as a box. It also draws markers and triggers alerts when the opening range is retested. The opening range time is configurable, as is the period of time that must elapse before each return to the opening range is considered a retest.
█ FEATURES
Opening range time configurable in bars or minutes
Configurable "resting" period between the end of the opening range or since the last retest before a new retest is considered valid
Configurable tolerance so that a retest can trigger sooner
Active time range can be used to filter alerts and markers to a specific time window
Visual box showing the opening range, which can be optionally limited to the above-mentioned active time window
Well-documented, high-quality, open-source code for those interested
█ CONCEPTS
This indicator can be used for an opening range retest trading strategy, where long or short positions are taken on the retest of the opening range.
The opening range can be user-configured, so it is suitable for use with any opening range time period (e.g., 1-min, 5-min, 15-min, etc.).
The markers and alerts are equivalent, in the sense that whenever a marker appears, an alert will also trigger (assuming the user has set an alert up).
The alert active time range is simply used as a filter for markers and alerts, meaning that these will not draw or trigger outside of the specified time range.
█ LIMITATIONS
The indicator is intended for equities that have a highly active regular market open. For other security types, it will draw the opening range box from whenever TradingView specifies the market open time.
Spread/Range Oscillator + Signal + HistogramThe Spread/Range Oscillator is a technical analysis tool designed to assess market momentum by evaluating the relationship between price movement and volatility.
Calculation
Spread: The difference between the closing and opening prices of a candle (close - open).
Range: The difference between the high and low prices of a candle (high - low).
Oscillator: The spread divided by the range (spread / range). This ratio provides a normalized measure of price movement within each candle.
Smoothed Oscillator: An Exponential Moving Average (EMA) applied to the oscillator over a user-defined period (Smoothing Length) to reduce noise.
Signal Line: An EMA of the Smoothed Oscillator over another user-defined period (Signal Line Length) to identify potential trend changes.
Histogram: The difference between the Smoothed Oscillator and the Signal Line (Smoothed Oscillator - Signal Line). Positive values suggest bullish momentum, while negative values indicate bearish momentum.
Inputs
Smoothing Length (EMA): Determines the period for smoothing the oscillator.
Signal Line Length (EMA): Sets the period for the EMA applied to the Smoothed Oscillator to generate the Signal Line.
Visual Representation
Smoothed Oscillator: Plotted as a line representing the smoothed momentum of price movements.
Signal Line: Displayed as a line serving as a reference to identify potential crossovers and trend changes.
Histogram: Rendered as bars, with positive values indicating bullish momentum and negative values indicating bearish momentum.
Zero Line: A horizontal line at zero to distinguish between bullish and bearish territories.
Applications
Momentum Analysis: Identify periods of strong buying or selling pressure based on the oscillator's position relative to the zero line.
Trend Confirmation: Use crossovers between the Smoothed Oscillator and Signal Line to confirm potential trend reversals or continuations.
Divergence Detection: Spot divergences between price action and the oscillator to anticipate possible market turning points.
This indicator is open-source and intended for educational purposes. It is recommended to use it in conjunction with other forms of analysis and risk management practices before making trading decisions.
Gold ORB Strategy (15-min Range, 5-min Entry)The Gold ORB (Opening Range Breakout) Strategy is designed for day traders looking to capitalize on the price action in the early part of the trading day, specifically using a 15-minute range for identifying the opening range and a 5-minute timeframe for breakout entries. The strategy trades the Gold market (XAU/USD) during the New York session.
Opening Range: The strategy defines the Opening Range (ORB) between 9:30 AM EST and 9:45 AM EST using the highest and lowest points during this 15-minute window.
Breakout Entries: The strategy enters trades when the price breaks above the ORB high for a long position or below the ORB low for a short position. It waits for a 5-minute candle close outside the range before entering a trade.
Stop Loss and Take Profit: The stop loss is placed at 50% of the ORB range, and the take profit is set at twice the ORB range (1:2 risk-reward ratio).
Time Window: The strategy only executes trades before 12:00 PM EST, avoiding late-day market fluctuations and consolidations.
Static price-range projection by symbolThis indicator shows you a predefined range to the right of the last candle of your chart. This range is custom and can be changed for a handful of symbols that you can choose. This scale will help you determining if the market is providing a reasonable range before you enter a trade or if the market isn't actually moving as much as you might think. This is particularly useful if you are into scalping and have to consider commission or spread in your trades.
Since all symbols have different price ranges in which they move this indicator doesn't make sense to just have "a one size fits all" approach. That's why you can choose up to 6 symbols and set the range that you want to have shown for each when you pull it up on the chart. Using my default values that means for when the NQ (Nasdaq future) is on the chart you will see a range of 20 handles projected. When you change the the ES (S&P500 future) you will instead see 5 handles. While the number is different that is somewhat of an equal move in both symbols.
There also is an option to set a default price range for all other symbols that are not selected if it is needed. However the display of the scale on anything else than the 6 selected symbols can also be turned off.
There are options provided on how exactly you want to indicator to determine if the chart symbol matches one of the selected symbols.
You can enable it to make sure the exchange/broker is the exact same as selected.
It can check for only the symbol root to match the selection. Specifically for futures this means that while ES1! might be selected, anything ES (ES1!, ES2!, ESH2025, ESM2025, ESM2022, ...) will be a match to the selection)
On the painted scale it is possible to not just show this range extended into each direction once. Per default you will have 3 segments of it in each direction. This can be reduced to just 1 or increased.
If you chose a high number of segments or a large range make sure to use the "Scale price chart only" option on your chart scale to not have the symbols price candles squished together by the charts auto scaling.
And last but not least the indicator options provide some possibilities to change the appearance of the printed price range scale in case you disagree with my design.
True Range & ATRDescription : This indicator plots both the True Range (TR) and the Average True Range (ATR) in a separate pane below the main chart.
- TR represents the absolute price movement range within each candle.
- ATR is a smoothed version of TR over a user-defined period (default: 14), providing insight into market volatility.
- TR is displayed as a histogram for a clearer view of individual candle ranges.
- ATR is plotted as a line to show the smoothed trend of volatility.
This indicator helps traders assess market volatility and potential price movements.
Opening Range, Initial Balance, Opening Price, Pre-market Levels### Description of the Indicator: **Opening Range, Initial Balance, Opening Price, Pre-market Levels**
This custom TradingView indicator provides a comprehensive view of key price levels for intraday trading, specifically designed to track important levels from the Opening Range (OR), Initial Balance (IB), Opening Price (OP), and Pre-market session (PM). These levels are essential for traders to gauge potential market movements and identify critical areas of support and resistance.
#### **Features:**
1. **Opening Range (OR):**
- This is the high and low of the first 30 minutes of the regular market session (09:30 - 10:00 EST).
- The OR high and low act as significant levels that may influence price movement for the rest of the day.
- The mid-level of the Opening Range (OR Mid) is also plotted to give a more detailed view of potential price action.
2. **Initial Balance (IB):**
- The Initial Balance is the range created during the first hour of market activity (09:30 - 10:30 EST).
- This range often sets the tone for the market's direction. The IB high and low, along with the IB midline, are plotted for quick reference.
3. **Opening Price (OP):**
- The opening price of the market is marked as a circle and labeled "OP."
- This level provides context for market sentiment when compared to the high and low levels.
4. **Pre-market Levels (PM):**
- The pre-market session (04:00 - 09:30 EST) has its own important levels that are calculated for the high, low, and mid range (PM High, PM Low, and PM Mid).
- These levels are plotted and are useful for traders to understand where the market stood before the regular session opened.
#### **Customization Options:**
- **Exchange Timezone:** You can choose whether to display the times in the exchange's local timezone or in your own preferred timezone.
- **Mid Levels Display:** You can toggle whether the mid levels for each range (OR, IB, PM) should be shown on the chart.
- **Level Color Change:** The colors of the plotted levels (high, low, mid) change based on whether the price is above or below the respective level, making it easy to visualize potential support and resistance.
- **Label Positions:** The position of the labels (OR, IB, OP, PM) on the chart can be customized to avoid overlap with other data points.
#### **Key Use Cases:**
- **Intraday Trend Analysis:** Use the OR and IB to identify key levels for the day, providing insights into the possible trend or range for the day.
- **Pre-market Insights:** The PM levels are crucial for understanding where the market stood during the pre-market hours and can be used as reference points during the regular session.
- **Potential Support and Resistance:** The high and low levels of the OR, IB, and PM sessions can act as potential support or resistance, which are useful for setting stop-loss and take-profit levels.
#### **How to Use:**
- Pay attention to the levels provided for OR, IB, and PM as potential entry and exit points.
- Watch for breakouts or reversals around these levels, especially when combined with other technical indicators or price action patterns.
- The mid levels offer an additional reference to assess price direction or identify possible areas of consolidation.
This indicator is perfect for day traders who rely on key intraday levels and pre-market activity to make informed trading decisions. It helps to streamline the process of identifying potential breakouts, reversals, and ranges in the market.
Visual Range Position Size CalculatorVisual Range Position Size Calculator
The "VR Position Size Calculator" helps traders determine the appropriate position size based on their risk tolerance and the current market conditions. Below is a detailed description of the script, its functionality, and how to use it effectively.
---
Key Features
1. Risk Calculation: The script allows users to input their desired risk in monetary terms (in the currency of the ticker). It then calculates the position sizes for both long and short trades based on this risk.
2. Dynamic High and Low Tracking: The script dynamically tracks the highest and lowest prices within the visible range of the chart, allowing for more accurate position sizing.
3. Formatted Output: The calculated values are displayed in a user-friendly table format with thousands separators for better readability.
4. Visual Indicators: Dashed lines are drawn on the chart at the high and low points of the visible range, providing a clear visual reference for traders.
5. If the risk in security price is 1% or less, the background of the cells displaying position sizes will be green for long positions and red for short positions. If the risk is between 1% and 5%, the background changes to gray, indicating that the risk may be too high for an effective trade. If the risk exceeds 5% of the price, the text also turns gray, rendering it invisible, which signifies that there is no justification for such a trade.
---
Code Explanation
The script identifies the start and end times of the visible range on the chart, ensuring calculations are based only on the data currently in view. It updates and stores the highest (hh) and lowest (ll) prices within this visible range. At the end of the range, dashed lines are drawn at the high and low prices, providing a visual cue for traders.
Users can input their risk amount, which is then used to calculate potential position sizes for both long and short trades based on the current price relative to the tracked high and low. The calculated risk values and position sizes are displayed in a table on the right side of the chart, with color coding to indicate whether the calculated position size meets specific criteria.
---
Usage Instructions
1. Add the Indicator: To use this script, copy and paste it into Pine Script editor, then add it to your chart.
2. Input Your Risk: Adjust the 'Risk in money' input to reflect your desired risk amount for trading.
3. Analyze Position Sizes: Observe the calculated position sizes for both long and short trades displayed in the table. Use this information to guide your trading decisions.
4. Visual Cues: Utilize the dashed lines on the chart to understand recent price extremes within your visible range.
Session High/Low Average & Range [1CG]The Session High/Low Average & Range indicator independently measures the average price movement from the opening price in each direction. It also displays the maximum high and low distance, called Range. Separating the averages and range into highs and lows helps analyze the volatility of the market as well as the direction.
USE EXAMPLES
Session Open
Session Close
Customization
Minimal - 1x and 2x Averages are replaced with custom lines, in order to show distance to3x.
Calculations
Average High: (high price of session - session opening price) / (session period)
Average Low: (session opening price - low price of session) / (session period)
Range High: The highest price of the last (session period)
Range Low: The lowest price of the last (session period)
INPUTS
Session
Here you can choose the hours for your session and time zone. The default is London session in New York time. Next, the session period determines how many sessions to sample from for the average and range lines, the default is 20. Lastly, you can choose the number of sessions to appear on the chart not including the current session if you are in one, 5 by default.
Lines
All of the lines allow you to change the color, width, and style. They also have a label option to choose to display the price. The bottom of the section allows you to change the location and size of the label text.
**Open Line** -Displays the opening price for the length of the session.
**Average Lines** - Displays the 1x, 2x, and 3x the average distance from open in each direction. Additionally, you can toggle a background color to highlight the area.
**Custom Lines** - Displays a customizable multiple of either the average or range. By default the first custom line displays the Range at a 1x multiplier and the second line displays an Average at a 1.5x multiplier
Display Distance
Here you can choose to display the distance from the lines to the open. This data is marked with a “Δ”. For the three Average lines this will display in the area between the line and the open in the position and size of your choice. The custom lines will have the distance information displayed on the line itself. This helps keep the data organized.
Real-Time Custom Candle Range Color Indicator
The script allows the user to input a custom range value (default set to 100 points) through the userDefinedRange variable. This value determines the minimum range required for a candle to change color.
Calculating Candle Range:
The script calculates the range of each candle by subtracting the low from the high price.
Determining Bullish or Bearish Candles:
It checks whether the close price is higher than the open price to determine if a candle is bullish (isBullish variable).
Coloring Candles:
Based on the custom range input, the script changes the color of the candles:
If the candle's range is greater than or equal to the custom range and it is bullish, the candle color is set to blue (bullishColor).
If the range condition is met and the candle is bearish, the color is set to orange (bearishColor).
If the range condition is not met, the color is set to na (not applicable).
Plotting Colored Candles:
The plotcandle function is used to plot candles with colors based on the custom range and bullish/bearish conditions. The candles will have a higher z-order to be displayed in front of default candles.
Displaying High and Low Price Points:
Triangular shapes are plotted at the high and low price levels using the plotshape function, with colors representing bullish (blue) and bearish (orange) conditions.
In trading, this indicator can help traders visually identify candles that meet a specific range criteria, potentially signaling strength or weakness in price movements. By customizing the range parameter, traders can adapt the indicator to different market conditions and trading strategies. It can be used in conjunction with other technical analysis tools to make informed trading decisions based on candlestick patterns and price movements.
