Range Filter Buy and Sell 5min - guikroth versionRange Filter Buy and Sell 5min - the @guikroth version, republished.
Since this popular version of the Range Filter is no longer available via the original author, I republish it here under the same name.
This version remains true to the guikroth version from the calculations to the default settings and comments in the code, with the exception of an update to the latest version of PineScript, minor styling adjustments and the addition of an all-in-one 'buy or sell' alert option.
The guikroth version was a simplified modification of the original Range Filter by @DonovanWall .
Including having just 3 bar colours based on the filtered price trend, different source input options to the original, and the addition of buy and sell signals and alerts based upon the Range Filter colour change. It consisted of just three inputs; source, sampling period, and range multipler. With the update to version 5, external indicators can also be used as inputs, for example using a VWAP or EMA loaded on your chart as the input on the Range Filter is now also possible.
What is the Range Filter?
As the author of the original Range Filter describes it:
"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.
Custom bar colors are included. The color scheme is based on the filtered price trend."
Popularity of the Range Filter
The Range Filter is a very popular and effective indicator in its own right, with adjustments to the few simple settings it is possible to use the Range Filter for helping filter price movement, whether helping to determine trend direction or ranges, to timing breakout or even reversal entries. Its practical versatility makes it ideal for integrating it's signals into a variety of trading strategies or even other indicators.
With many thanks to the authors of the previous and original versions; @guikroth and @DonovanWall .

Rangebar timeThis indicator determines the time (in minutes) for which a bar of the Range Bar type was formed.
In order to avoid errors in the calculations, a weekend check is immediately carried out (one day if it is a holiday or two days if it is a weekend).
If there are more days off, then the information on the first bar after the weekend may be incorrect.
Индикатор определяет время (в минутах), за которое образовался бар типа RangeBar.
Cразу идет проверка на выходные дни (один день, если праздник или два дня, если выходные).
Если выходных больше, то информация на 1-ом баре, после выходных может быть некорректна.
Ranged Candle Length - evoSimilar to one of my previous scripts 'Ranged Volume', but instead of using volume, this script uses candle length mirrored. It creates a range using highest and lowest of a given period. When the range gets larger, it means the current candle is bigger than the largest candle of your given period (break-out).
Yellow = Bullish break out
Red = Bearish break out
A good way to use this is to follow the direction of the last break-out candle or open a position with a stop just below or above the candle (that's how I tested it real time).
Good luck!
Range Filtered Trend Signals [AlgoAlpha]Introducing the Range Filtered Trend Signals , a cutting-edge trading indicator designed to detect market trends and ranging conditions with high accuracy. This indicator leverages a combination of Kalman filtering and Supertrend analysis to smooth out price fluctuations while maintaining responsiveness to trend shifts. By incorporating volatility-based range filtering, it ensures traders can differentiate between trending and ranging conditions effectively, reducing false signals and enhancing trade decision-making.
:key: Key Features
:white_check_mark: Kalman Filter Smoothing – Minimizes market noise while preserving trend clarity.
:bar_chart: Supertrend Integration – A dynamic trend-following mechanism for spotting reversals.
:fire: Volatility-Based Range Detection – Detects trending vs. ranging conditions with precision.
:art: Color-Coded Trend Signals – Instantly recognize bullish, bearish, and ranging market states.
:gear: Customizable Inputs – Fine-tune Kalman parameters, Supertrend settings, and color themes to match your strategy.
:bell: Alerts for Trend Shifts – Get real-time notifications when market conditions change!
:tools: How to Use
Add the Indicator – Click the star icon to add it to your TradingView favorites.
Analyze Market Conditions – Observe the color-coded signals and range boundaries to identify trend strength and direction.
Use Alerts for Trade Execution – Set alerts for trend shifts and market conditions to stay ahead without constantly monitoring charts.
:mag: How It Works
The Kalman filter smooths price fluctuations by dynamically adjusting its weighting based on market volatility. It helps remove noise while keeping the signal reactive to trend changes. The Supertrend calculation is then applied to the filtered price data, providing a robust trend-following mechanism. To enhance signal accuracy, a volatility-weighted range filter is incorporated, creating upper and lower boundaries that define trend conditions. When price breaks out of these boundaries, the indicator confirms trend continuation, while signals within the range indicate market consolidation. Traders can leverage this tool to enhance trade timing, filter false breakouts, and identify optimal entry/exit zones.
Range Filter & LabelsAll credit goes to @DonovanWall for the Range Filter.
I just added Buy & Sell labels to demonstrate how the VuManChu Swing generates the same exact signals as the Range filter using the exact same settings between the two indicators.
This would only seem plausible if VuManChu Swing runs on the same code as the Range Filter.
It looks likely to be the old version of the Range Filter, where it had only two Inputs, Range Size and Range Period
Range Breakout Indicator with trailing SLDear Traders,
This is a simple range breakout indicator where we are creating a range based on high and low of two consecutive volatile candles.
The logic is,
1) If the second candle traverse 1% up from the previous candle low (or)
2) If the second candle traverse 1% down from the previous candle high
then, the range is formed based on this high and low and
3) Buy signal will be given if the price crosses above the High
4) Sell signal will be given if the price crosses below the Low
The indication comes along with the Entry Indication, Exit Indication along with trailing SL
Option provided for changing the session time, target %, SL % and trailing SL %.

Range Average Retest Model [LuxAlgo]The Range Average Retest Model tool highlights setups from the range average retest entry model, a model using the retest of the average between two opposite swing points as an entry.
This tool uses long-term volatility coupled with user-defined multipliers to filter out swing areas and set take profit and stop loss levels for all trades.
Key features include:
Draw up to 165 swing areas and their associated trades
Filter out swing areas using Pivot Length , Selection Mode and Threshold parameters
Filter out trades with Maximum Distance and Minimum Distance parameters
Enable or disable swing areas and select default colors
Enable or disable overlapping trades and change the default colors for Take Profit and Stop Loss zones
🔶 USAGE
The "Range Average Retest Model" is an entry model that enters a position when the price retests the average made between two swing points. Users can determine the period of the detected swing points from the "Pivot Length" setting.
The conditions for long or short trades, regardless of whether the swing area is bullish or bearish, are as follows:
Long positions: the current bar close is below the swing area average and the last bar close was above it.
Short positions: the current bar close is above the swing area average price and the last bar close was below it.
Each trade is displayed on the chart with a line connecting it to its swing area highlighting the range average, a green area for the take profit, and a red area for the stop loss.
Both the Take Profit and Stop Loss levels are calculated by applying your own multiplier in the settings panel to the long-term volatility measure, in this case, the average true range over the last 200 bars.
Trades will remain open until they reach either the Stop Loss or Take Profit price levels.
🔹 Filtering Swing Areas
The daily chart of the Nasdaq-100 futures (NQ) with pivot length 2 and bullish selection mode: it only detects bullish swing areas, but they are smaller and more numerous.
Traders can manipulate the behavior of the swing areas from the settings panel.
The Selection mode will filter areas by bias: it will detect bullish areas, bearish areas, or both.
The Threshold parameter is applied to the long-term volatility to filter out areas where the average prices are too close together; the higher the value, the greater the difference between the average prices must be.
🔹 Trades
3-minute chart of the Nasdaq-100 futures (NQ) with pivot length 5, bearish selection mode maximum distance 4, and stop loss 2: many trades detected with very asymmetric risk/reward.
The behavior of the trades is also manipulated from the settings panel.
The maximum and minimum distance parameters specify the number of bars a trade must be away from a swing area.
The Take Profit and Stop Loss parameters are applied to the long-term volatility to obtain their respective price levels.
🔹 Overlapping Trades
Same chart as before, but with overlapping trades: messy, right?
By default the tool does not show overlapping trades, this allows for a cleaner chart.
In the settings panel traders can enable overlapping mode, in which case the tool will show all available trades.
Traders must be aware that the chart can be very crowded.
🔶 SETTINGS
🔹 Swings
Pivot Length: How many bars are used to confirm a swing point. The larger this parameter is, the larger and fewer swing areas will be detected.
Selection Mode: Swing area detection mode, detect only bullish swings, only bearish swings, or both.
Threshold: Swing area comparator. This threshold is multiplied by a measure of volatility (average true range over the last 200 bars), for a new swing area to be detected it must have an average level that is sufficiently distant from the average level of any untouched swing area, this parameter controls that distance.
🔹 Trades
Maximum distance: Maximum distance allowed between a swing area and a trade.
Minimum distance: Minimum distance allowed between a swing area and a trade.
Take profit: The size of the take profit - this threshold is multiplied by a measure of volatility (the average true range over the last 200 bars).
Stop loss: The size of the stop-loss: this threshold is multiplied by a measure of volatility (the average true range over the last 200 bars).
Range Sentiment Profile [LuxAlgo]The Range Sentiment Profile indicator is inspired from the volume profile and aims to indicate the degree of bullish/bearish variations within equidistant price areas inside the most recent price range.
The most bullish/bearish price areas are highlighted through lines extending over the entire range.
🔶 SETTINGS
Length: Most recent bars used for the calculation of the indicator.
Rows: Number of price areas the price range is divided into.
Use Intrabar: Use intrabar data to compute the range sentiment profile.
Timeframe: Intrabar data timeframe.
🔶 USAGE
This tool can be used to easily determine if a certain price area contain more significant bullish or bearish price variations. This is done by obtaining an estimate of the accumulation of all the close to open variations occurring within a specific profile area.
A blue range background indicates a majority of bullish variations within each area while an orange background indicates a majority of bearish variations within each area.
Users can easily identify the areas with the most bullish/bearish price variations by looking at the bullish/bearish maximums.
It can be of interest to see where profile bins might have no length, these can indicate price areas with price variations with alternating signs (bullish variations are followed by a bearish sign) and similar body. They can also indicate a majority of either bullish or bearish variations alongside a minority of more significant opposite variations.
These areas can also provide support/resistance, as such price entering these areas could reverse.
Users can obtain more precise results by allowing the profile to use intrabar data. This will change the calculation of the profile, see the details section for more information.
🔶 DETAILS
The Range Sentiment Profile's design is similar to the way a volume profile is constructed.
First the maximum/minimum values over the most recent Length bars are obtained, these define the calculation range of the profile.
The range is divided into Rows equidistant areas. We then see if price lied within a specific area, if it's the case we accumulate the difference between the closing and opening price for that specific area.
Let d = close - open . The length of the bin associated to a specific area is determined as follows:
length = Width / 100 * Area / Max
Where Area is the accumulated d within the area, and Max the maximum value between the absolute value of each accumulated d of all areas.
The percentage visible on each bin is determined as 100 multiplied by the accumulated d within the area divided by the total absolute value of d over the entire range.
🔹 Intrabar Calculation
When using intrabar data the range sentiment profile is calculated differently.
For a specific area and candle within the interval, the accumulated close to open difference is accumulated only if the intrabar candle of the user selected timeframe lies within the area.
This can return more precise results compared to the standard method, at the cost of a higher computation time.
Range Detector Indicator [Misu]█ This indicator shows an upper and lower band based on Highs and Lows.

But it can also be used to show resistance or support levels.
█ Features:
> Price Action Change Alerts
> Price Action Change Labels
> Color Bars
> Show Bands
█ Parameters:
Deviation: A parameter used to calculate pivots.
Depth: A parameter used to calculate pivots.
Activate Range Detection: Check the box to activate range detection.
Band% Offset: A factor that is used to vary the bands offset.
Range StrengthRange Strength is a super simple indicator designed for the mean reversion (range trading) strategy, it shows you how strong the market is ranging or trending. When the indicator is positive (green color) the market is a range mode, when the indicator is negative (red color) it is in a trending mode.
It's best used together with our Buy Sell Bands indicator to identify entry and exit signals within the range, ideally only taking trades when the Range Strength indicator is showing positive (green) readings.
How Is It Different From Other Indicators?
- Designed specifically for the mean reversion (range trading) strategy
- Shows one simple reading and graphical representation of range strength
- Identify the best times to take mean reversion trades versus trend trades
- Works well in conjunction with the Buy Sell Bands indicator to validate entry & exit signals
- Can be applied to all markets and timeframes

What Markets and Conditions Does It Work Best On?
All markets cycle between trending and ranging modes, and the key to successfully using our indicators is identifying when the market is in or about to go into a range trading mode, and as such it can be applied to all markets and timeframes.
Some markets and timeframes trade within ranges more predictably than others, for example Forex, Cryptocurrencies, and Futures on the 15 minute timeframe during the US night session can work well due to the lack of price sensitive news creating lasting trends. With Stocks & ETFs on the 5 minute timeframe during the midday session on large cap blue chip stocks with no recent news releases can show strong range trading environments to use our indicators in.
In addition to single markets, you can also use our indicators on pair charts, for example Coca Cola(KO) versus Pepsi(PEP), you can do this by entering KO/PEP inside your TradingView chart quote box and it will bring up a pair chart. Our indicators will show buy and sell signals right on the pair chart just like any other single instrument chart. You can get very creative with what type of pairs you can come up with.
Our indicators are primarily designed for day trading and swing trading, however they can also be used for position trading and investing by identifying technically oversold and overbought range levels that are based on current and past volatility around a dynamic average price, for this we recommend using a weekly chart to identify longer trading opportunities.
As always indicators should be used as part of a trading strategy to assist in making decisions, you can't just blindly follow every signal they produce, you should always seek to compliment technical trading signals with additional analysis to reduce your risk and increase your odds of making a winning trade.

Range Box + VMA cloudsHere's a mix of two indicators that I find particularly useful.
One is a Range Box showing High and Low of the day plus 50% range, as well as high and low of the previous day. The Box changes color based on whether it closed higher or lower than the previous session.
The second one plots Variable Moving Average clouds - short and long term one.
The rules are pretty simple - take long trades only if the box is green, short trades if it's red.
Candle close above both clouds - long signal. If the price is being rejected from the long term cloud - buy the dip (or rally).
Pretty straightforward.
Enjoy

Range Deviations @joshuuuThis indicator is able to show ranges, the equlibrium (50%) and range deviations.
It has four pre-defined options and one custom version.
Asia (2000-0000) ny time
CBDR(1400-2000) ny time
Flout(1400-0000) ny time
ONS (OverNightSession)(0400-0800) chicago time
Custom (you can choose the times)
ICT (Inner Circle Traders) teaches, that those range deviations of asia,cbdr,flout can be used to find the daily high/low.
TCM (The Currency Merchant) teaches, that a move out of the range often is a false move to trap traders into the wrong direction.
Currency Pairs High Low RangeIndicator gives the High-Low range of 18 currency pairs. There is a High Ave which is the average of the top four (you may need to adjust which ones are in the average) as well as the bottom four Low Ave. The picture is of a weekly chart with the indicator set at 12 week average of the High-Low range with a .7 (70%) multiplier. When I am looking for week long trades with lots of movement I pick my pairs based on the most actives with a 70% capture of the range as a guide line of when to exit. Sometime when I am not in the mood for volatility I go with the ones in the Low Ave area. Further, when I day trade I set the indicator to a 1Day chart and move the percent to 20% or 30% as a guideline to tell when to get out of a trade.
Range & StopA market moving sideways will break out at one point in time. The trader does not know if the break-out will be upwards or downwards. Both are possible. The Range & Stop indicator offers the possibility to place an order in the edge of the fixed range area. If one order is executed, the other order can be the take profit order.
If price its trending price will always respect the range and the new areas of the price will always providing support and resistance on the edge of the range.
Stop and range also provide a stop lost base on atr volatility calculations to prevent Stop hunts before rising.
Comes with few Conditions for trend reversal recognition and candle color

Range Filter x Hull SuiteRange Filter x Hull Suite
This indicator is a hybrid of two popular indicators, with a twist; namely the Range Filter (Guikroth version) and the Hull Suite (by Insilico) .
Originally developed as a 1 minute trend following strategy and traded during the New York Session for it's typically high volume / likely trending nature, it provides entry signals based on the following logic:
For bullish entry signals:
The first bullish* candle (*defined by the Range Filter bar color logic, blue by default - which is not necessarily technically a bullish candle as defined by the OHLC values) which appears after the consolidation candles (also defined by the Range Filter bar color logic, orange by default), and where the Hull Suite moving average is also bullish.
For bearish entry signals:
The first bearish* candle (*defined by the Range Filter bar color logic, red by default - which is not necessarily technically a bearish candle as defined by the OHLC values) which appears after the consolidation candles (also defined by the Range Filter bar color logic, orange by default), and where the Hull Suite moving average is also bearish.
The indicator aims to filter out signals where possible consolidation is occurring and comes with styling options and alternative filter options such as a triple moving average trend detection method. Signals can also be filtered by a specific trading session. Standard options for the Range Filter and Hull Suite settings are also able to be customised within the settings menu.
Alerts
Various alerts are built-in, including the custom entry signals unique to this strategy.
Note : The above features listed above are accurate at the time of publishing, but may be altered in future.
Many thanks to guikroth & Insilico for sharing their open source indicators, and also to the original developer of the strategy itself for sharing it.
Range Candles - JDThis tool takes a "RANGE" chart and transforms it into "NORMAL" or "HEIKEN-ASHI" candles.
Instantly giving you a much better visual interpretation of the "range" information!!!
NOTE: due to the nature of Pinescript and how range charts are constructed it's possible the candles are not formed on every tick!!!
When formed though, they don't repaint and are calculated differently for every bar so you get approximately the most accurate view at the price action that Tradingview can offer you!
For compasrison:
this is a view of the "1 minute" chart:
this is the normal "1 range" chart without the candles
this is the same "1 range" chart with Heiken-Ashi candles
this is the normal "1000 range" chart (+/- equal to the 1 minute) without the candles
this is the same "1000 range" chart with Heiken-Ashi candles
JD.

Range Tightening Indicator (RTI)The Range Tightening Indicator (RTI) quantifies price volatility relative to recent price action, helping traders identify low-volatility consolidations that often precede breakouts.
Range Tightening is calculated by measuring the range between each bar’s high and low prices over a chosen lookback period.
A 5-bar period is recommended for shorter-term momentum setups and a 15-bar period is recommended for swing trading. An option for a custom period is available to suit specific strategies. The default look back for custom is 50, ideal for longer term traders.
Other Key Features:
Dynamic Color Coding: The RTI line turns green when volatility doubles after a drop to or below 20, flagging significant volatility shifts commonly seen before breakouts.
Low-Volatility Dots: Orange dots appear on the RTI line when two or more consecutive bars show RTI values below 20, visually marking extended low-volatility periods.
Volatility Zones: Shaded zones provide quick context:
Zone 1 (0-5): Extremely tight volatility, shown in red.
Zone 2 (5-10): Low volatility, shown in light green.
Zone 3 (10-15): Moderate low volatility, shown in green.
The RTI indicator is ideal for traders looking to anticipate breakout conditions, with features that highlight consolidation phases, support momentum strategies, and help improve entry timing by focusing on shifts in volatility.
This indicator was inspired after Deepvue's RMV Indicator, but uses a different calculation. Results may vary.
Range Breakout Signals (Intrabar) [LuxAlgo]The Range Breakout Signals (Intrabar) is a novel indicator highlighting trending/ranging intrabar candles and providing signals when the price breaks the extremities of a ranging intrabar candles.
🔶 USAGE
The indicator highlights candles with trending intrabar prices, with uptrending candles being highlighted in green, and down-trending candles being highlighted in red.
This highlighting is affected by the selected intrabar timeframe, with a lower timeframe returning a more precise estimation of a candle trending/ranging state.
When a candle intrabar prices are ranging the body of the candle is hidden from the chart, and one upper & lower extremities are displayed, the upper extremity is equal to the candle high and the lower extremity to the candle low. Price breaking one of these extremities generates a signal.
The indicator comes with two modes, "Trend Following" and "Reversal", these modes determine the extremities that need to be broken in order to return a signal. The "Trend Following" mode as its name suggests will provide trend-following signals, while "Reversal" will aim at providing early signals suggesting a potential reversal.
🔶 DETAILS
To determine if intrabar prices are trending or ranging we calculate the r-squared of the intrabar data, if the r-squared is above 0.5 it would suggest that lower time frame prices are trending, else ranging.
This approach allows almost obtaining a "settings" free indicator, which is uncommon. The intrabar timeframe setting only controls the intrabar precision, with a timeframe significantly lower than the chart timeframe returning more intrabar data as a result, this however might not necessarily affect the displayed information by the indicator.
🔶 SETTINGS
Intrabar Timeframe: Timeframe used to retrieve the intrabar data within a chart candle. Must be lower than the user chart timeframe.
Auto: Select the intrabar timeframe automatically. This setting is more adapted to intraday charts.
Mode: Signal generation mode.
Filter Out Successive Signals: Allows removing successive signals of the same type, returning a more easily readable chart.
