Volume Range Profile with Fair Value (Zeiierman)█ Overview
The Volume Range Profile with Fair Value (Zeiierman) is a precision-built volume-mapping tool designed to help traders visualize where institutional-level activity is occurring within the price range — and how that volume behavior shifts over time.
Unlike traditional volume profiles that rely on fixed session boundaries or static anchors, this tool dynamically calculates and displays volume zones across both the upper and lower ends of a price range, revealing point-of-control (POC) levels, directional volume flow, and a fair value drift line that updates live with each candle.
You’re not just looking at volume anymore. You’re dissecting who’s in control — and at what price.
⚪ In simple terms:
Upper Zone = The upper portion of the price range, showing concentrated volume activity — typically where selling or distribution may occur
Lower Zone = The lower portion of the price range, highlighting areas of high volume — often associated with buying or accumulation
POC Bin = The bin (price level) with the highest traded volume in the zone — considered the most accepted price by the market
Fair Value Trend = A dynamic trend line tracking the average POC price over time — visualizing the evolving fair value
Zone Labels = Display real-time breakdown of buy/sell volume within each zone and inside the POC — revealing who’s in control
█ How It Works
⚪ Volume Zones
Upper Zone: Anchored at the highest high in the lookback period
Lower Zone: Anchored at the lowest low in the lookback period
Width is user-defined via % of range
Each zone is divided into a series of volume bins
⚪ Volume Bins (Histograms)
Each zone is split into N bins that show how much volume occurred at each level:
Taller = More volume
The POC bin (Point of Control) is highlighted
Labels show % of volume in the POC relative to the whole zone
⚪ Buy vs Sell Breakdown
Each volume bin is split by:
Buy Volume = Close ≥ Open
Sell Volume = Close < Open
The script accumulates these and displays total Buy/Sell volume per zone.
⚪ Fair Value Drift Line
A POC trend is plotted over time:
Represents where volume was most active across each range
Color changes dynamically — green for rising, red for falling
Serves as a real-time fair value anchor across changing market structure
█ How to Use
⚪ Identify Key Control Zones
Use Upper/Lower Zone structures to understand where supply and demand is building.
Zones automatically adapt to recent highs/lows and re-center volume accordingly.
⚪ Follow Institutional Activity
Watch for POC clustering near price tops or bottoms.
Large volumes near extremes may indicate accumulation or distribution.
⚪ Spot Fair Value Drift
The fair value trend line (average POC price) gives insight into market equilibrium.
One strategy can be to trade a re-test of the fair value trend, trades are taken in the direction of the current trend.
█ Understanding Buy & Sell Volume Labels (Zone Totals)
These labels show the total buy and sell volume accumulated within each zone over the selected lookback period:
Buy Vol (green label) → Total volume where candles closed bullish
Sell Vol (red label) → Total volume where candles closed bearish
Together, they tell you which side dominated:
Higher Buy Vol → Bullish accumulation zone
Higher Sell Vol → Bearish distribution zone
This gives a quick visual insight into who controlled the zone, helping you spot areas of demand or supply imbalance.
█ Understanding POC Volume Labels
The POC (Point of Control) represents the price level where the most volume occurred within the zone. These labels break down that volume into:
Buy % – How much of the volume was buying (price closed up)
Sell % – How much was selling (price closed down)
Total % – How much of the entire zone’s volume happened at the POC
Use it to spot strong demand or supply zones:
High Buy % + High Total % → Strong buying interest = likely support
High Sell % + High Total % → Strong selling pressure = likely resistance
It gives a deeper look into who was in control at the most important price level.
█ Why It’s Useful
Track where fair value is truly forming
Detect aggressive volume accumulation or dumping
Visually split buyer/seller control at the most relevant price levels
Adapt volume structures to current trend direction
█ Settings Explained
Lookback Period: Number of bars to scan for highs/lows. Higher = smoother zones, Lower = reactive.
Zone Width (% of Range): Controls how much of the range is used to define each zone. Higher = broader zones.
Bins per Zone: Number of volume slices per zone. Higher = more detail, but heavier on resources.

EMA Price Range by tuanduongEMA Price Range Indicator – Dynamic Range Analysis with Custom EMA (tuanduong2511)
Overview
The EMA Price Range Indicator is designed to help traders visualize the distance between price action and a key Exponential Moving Average (EMA). This indicator dynamically calculates the range from each candle to a user-defined EMA and displays it in a real-time table. By understanding the relationship between price and the EMA, traders can better gauge potential support, resistance, and overextension in the market.
Key Features
✅ Customizable EMA – Allows users to choose the EMA period that best suits their strategy (default: 144).
✅ Real-Time Range Calculation – Computes the absolute difference between the EMA and the price (using the high or low, depending on whether the candle is above or below the EMA).
✅ Minimalist UI – The EMA is plotted directly on the chart, while a small table in the bottom-right corner provides numerical insights, reducing chart clutter.
✅ Versatile Use Cases – Suitable for trend-following traders (identifying pullbacks to EMA) and mean-reversion traders (spotting extended price movements).
How It Works
User-Defined EMA:
The script calculates an Exponential Moving Average (EMA) based on the selected period.
EMA adapts dynamically, giving more weight to recent price movements.
Range Calculation:
If the price is above the EMA, the range is measured from the high point of the candle to the EMA.
If the price is below the EMA, the range is measured from the low point of the candle to the EMA.
This approach ensures that we’re measuring the most relevant distance for price interaction.
Live Table Display:
The current EMA value and the distance (range) from the price are displayed in a small table in the bottom-right corner of the chart.
How to Use It
📌 Trend Traders: Use the indicator to track pullbacks to key EMAs (e.g., EMA 50, 144, or 200). When the price is far from the EMA, it may indicate an overextended trend or potential retracement zone.
📌 Mean Reversion Traders: Look for extreme deviations between price and the EMA. Large distances can signal potential price snapbacks to the mean.
📌 Scalping & Day Trading: Short-term traders can use it with fast EMAs (e.g., EMA 21 or 34) to measure quick price movements relative to short-term momentum.
Why This Indicator?
Unlike traditional EMA indicators, which only plot a moving average, this script provides quantifiable price distance to the EMA, helping traders make data-driven decisions. It allows traders to answer:
✅ Is the price stretched too far from the EMA?
✅ Should I wait for a pullback before entering?
✅ Is the trend strong, or is the price losing momentum?
By integrating EMA-based range analysis, traders gain a clearer understanding of market conditions and can improve their entry, exit, and risk management strategies.

The Fractal Range Model follows a specific lifecycle, which highlights the current state of the model and determines whether a trade opportunity is valid.
The model's lifecycle includes the following statuses:
Formation (grey)
Invalidation (red)
Success (green)
1. Formation
The Formation phase marks the initial setup of the Fractal Range Model. During this stage, the model identifies and plots key components, such as:
Sweeps: Market movements that indicate a potential reversal or strong shift in trend.
CISD (Change In State of Delivery): A structural change that provides insight into trend shifts.
Once these components are detected, the model automatically calculates and displays Projections and Liquidity Levels , offering insights into potential price action movements.
At this stage, the model also identifies and displays the following key elements:
HTF PD Arrays (Higher-Timeframe Price Delivery Arrays)
LTF PD Arrays (Lower-Timeframe Price Delivery Arrays)
Smart Money Technique (SMT)
If any of these elements are present, they will be automatically displayed on the chart.
2. Invalidation
A Fractal Range Model is considered invalidated when the price does not reach the 2 Standard Deviation level or the first identified liquidity level, and when the price breaks above the high that formed the Sweep.
Invalidation signals that the original setup is no longer reliable, and traders should avoid taking action based on the model's original parameters.
Key invalidation conditions:
Price fails to reach the 2 Standard Deviation level.
Price fails to reach the first liquidity level.
Price breaks the high/low that initiated the Sweep.
A potentially invalidated model is marked with a purple color above the label, indicating the sweep is invalidated by the next candle, but not the high that formed the sweep.
3. Success
A Fractal Range Model is considered successful when the price reaches the 2 Standard Deviation level or the first identified liquidity level. This indicates that the model's predictions align with actual market movements, confirming the setup's validity and providing a potential trading signal.
At this stage, alongside Projections and Liquidity levels, you'll also notice the C-area — the region between the current candle's open and the previous candle's mean. If respected, price action will follow the model's direction.
Key success conditions:
Price reaches the 2 Standard Deviation level.
Price reaches the first liquidity level.
By leveraging these phases, Formation, Invalidation, and Success, traders can effectively manage their positions, minimize risk, and capitalize on high-probability setups based on the Fractal Range Model.

Smart Range Breakout - SwiftEdgeDescription:
The "Smart Range Breakout - SwiftEdge" indicator is a custom tool designed for identifying potential breakout opportunities on a 1-minute chart, with a focus on volatile markets like the DAX index. This script introduces a unique approach by combining range consolidation detection with volume confirmation and breakout validation, tailored for short-term trading strategies.
How It Works:
The indicator identifies consolidation periods where the price range (difference between the highest high and lowest low over a user-defined length) is below a multiple of the Average True Range (ATR). This helps detect periods of low volatility, which often precede breakouts.
Once a consolidation is confirmed (minimum number of bars), a green box is drawn on the chart, spanning a fixed length of bars (default 50), representing the potential breakout zone.
Breakouts are signaled only when a candle opens above the upper boundary (box top) or below the lower boundary (box bottom) of the consolidation box, ensuring a clear entry point based on price action at the open.
The script includes a volume filter, requiring volume to exceed a moving average by a specified multiplier, and a confirmation period to validate the breakout over consecutive bars.
To avoid signal clutter, only one breakout signal (up or down) is generated per box, and no further signals are issued until a new consolidation box is formed.
How to Use:
Apply the indicator to a 1-minute chart (optimized for DAX or similar volatile indices).
Adjust the "Consolidation Length" (default 5) to set the lookback period for detecting consolidation.
Modify the "Range Threshold (ATR Multiplier)" (default 2.0) to make the consolidation detection more or less strict based on market volatility.
Use "Minimum Consolidation Bars" (default 2) to set the minimum duration of a consolidation phase.
Tune "Confirmation Bars" (default 1) to require more bars to confirm the breakout.
Set "Volume MA Length" (default 5) and "Volume Multiplier" (default 1.1) to filter breakouts with insufficient volume.
Adjust "Max Box Length" (default 50) to control the duration of the breakout zone on the chart.
Look for green triangles below the chart for bullish breakouts and red triangles above for bearish breakouts, occurring when a candle opens outside the box with confirmed volume.
Originality:
This script stands out by integrating a fixed-length consolidation box with an opening-price breakout condition, combined with volume and multi-bar confirmation. Unlike traditional breakout indicators that rely solely on closing prices or simple price thresholds, this approach prioritizes the opening price and limits signals to one per cycle, reducing noise in volatile markets.
Chart Notes:
The accompanying chart displays the indicator's output with green boxes indicating consolidation zones, yellow dots marking consolidation periods, and green/red triangles for breakout signals. No additional scripts or unrelated drawings are included to ensure clarity.
Daily True Range (DTR) vs Average True Range (ATR)Overview
The "DTR vs ATR with Color-Coded Percentage" indicator is a powerful volatility analysis tool designed for traders who want to understand daily price movements in the context of historical volatility. It calculates the Daily True Range (DTR)—the raw measure of a single day’s volatility—and compares it to the Average True Range (ATR), which smooths volatility over a user-defined period (default 14 days). The indicator presents this data in an intuitive table, featuring a color-coded percentage that visually represents how the current day’s move (DTR) stacks up against the average volatility (ATR). This helps traders quickly assess whether the current day’s price action is unusually volatile, average, or subdued relative to recent history.
Purpose
Volatility Comparison: Visualize how the current day’s price range (DTR) relates to the average range (ATR) over a specified period.
Decision Support: Identify days with exceptional movement (e.g., breakouts or reversals) versus normal or quiet days, aiding in trade entry/exit decisions.
Risk Management: Gauge daily volatility to adjust position sizing or stop-loss levels based on whether the market is exceeding or falling short of typical movement.
Features
Daily True Range (DTR) Calculation:
Computes the True Range for the current day as the greatest of:
Current day’s High - Low
High - Previous Close
Low - Previous Close
Aggregates data on any timeframe to ensure accurate daily values.
Average True Range (ATR):
Calculates the smoothed average of DTR over a customizable period (default 14 days) using Wilder’s smoothing method.
Updates in real-time as the day progresses.
Timeframe Flexibility: Works on any chart timeframe (e.g., 1-minute, 1-hour) while always calculating DTR and ATR based on daily data.
Color-Coded Display in either compact or table mode
The percentage value is color-coded in the table based on configurable thresholds:
Safe (default 75): Normal range, within typical volatility

Advanced 1-Minute Open Range Breakout IndicatorThis indicator is designed for the market on a 1-minute chart. It calculates the open range based on the first 5 minutes after the market open (09:30 – 09:35) and plots the high and low of this period as the daily resistance and support levels respectively. Additionally, the indicator displays the previous day’s high and low as blue horizontal lines, providing extra reference levels.
Trade signals are generated only during the active trading session (09:35 – 16:00). The advanced trade logic works as follows:
• For long entries:
- When the price first breaks above the open range high, the indicator enters a “breakout” state.
- If the price then retraces to (or below) the open range high, it moves to a “retest” state.
- Finally, if the price breaks above the open range high again, a long signal is issued.
• For short entries:
- When the price first breaks below the open range low, the indicator enters a “breakdown” state.
- If the price then retraces to (or above) the open range low, it moves to a “retest” state.
- Finally, if the price breaks below the open range low again, a short signal is issued.
All signals and the open range lines are only displayed during the trading session (09:35 to 16:00).
Use this indicator to help identify high-probability breakout setups in the early part of the trading day.
Dawud Range Rover BarsThe Dawud Range Rover Bars indicator is a dynamic technical analysis tool designed to normalize price movements into a 0-100 range, helping traders identify overbought and oversold conditions while incorporating adaptive signal tracking. This indicator utilizes multiple smoothing techniques, including EMA, RMA, SMA, and TMA, allowing traders to filter price movements based on their preferred method. By applying a rolling min-max scaling approach, the script converts price action into a normalized range, making it easier to detect potential trend reversals or continuations.
A key feature of this indicator is its dynamic signal line, which smooths the normalized value to help confirm trend shifts. Traders can adjust the length and smoothing strength of both the primary normalization process and the signal line to fine-tune the sensitivity of the indicator. Overbought and oversold levels are marked with customizable thresholds, providing visual cues to identify key trading opportunities. Additionally, background highlights dynamically change color when the price enters extreme zones, making trend shifts more apparent.
The indicator also incorporates a unique threshold-based bar plotting system that displays colored bars below the price when the normalized value crosses the upper or lower custom thresholds. This provides an additional visual confirmation of extreme price conditions. To ensure accuracy and avoid repainting, historical values are stored in arrays, preventing future bars from influencing past signals. This non-repainting approach makes the Dawud Range Rover Bars a reliable tool for traders looking for consistent signals without the risk of misleading historical data.
By combining trend smoothing, normalization, adaptive signal lines, and threshold-based visual cues, the Dawud Range Rover Bars indicator offers a comprehensive approach to market analysis. It helps traders identify key reversal zones, trend strengths, and breakout opportunities with greater clarity. With its flexibility in customization and non-repainting methodology, this indicator is suitable for traders across different timeframes and asset classes who are looking for a structured and visually intuitive method to assess market conditions.

Weekly Opening Range and Previous Data for FuturesThis indicator will not predict future price action.
This indicator is a time based range tool. These types of tools are great to use when there is not any historical data to look back on (as in all time highs/lows). The user can use this indicator to measure distributions, use deviations of the range to identify support/resistance levels, and see how historical price action influences current price action. This indicator is unique because it uses the price range from the open of the futures market on Sunday 18:00 America/New York to the open of the Bond Market 8:00 America/New York as the range for all calculations.
This indicator collects the multiple points of data from each day of the week, and gives the user many options on how to use the data that is collected. The amount of data collected is based on the time frame of the chart (best used on a 15 minute chart), but is limited to 30 minute charts.
Data Collected:
Opening Range for the week
High of Each Day
Low of Each Day
Close of Each Day
Initially the range is plotted on the chart as a box, when the Bond market opens the high/low/mid is plotted, as well as the current week open and previous week close.
How the data is used.
Intraday: Monday does not have a previous day to pull data on, so all data for Monday is intraday data. When a new high is made, the indicator will search all previous data in the lookback period for the current day , find all highs that are within a set variance (determined by the user), and plot the corresponding lows from the matching days. It will do the same for new lows that are made, with corresponding historical highs. All of these levels are plotted on the chart, as well as the Average High, Average Low. If price moves beyond either Average, the Average of all days that distributed higher than the Average is plotted on the chart as Min/Max Average.
Previous Day Data: Tuesday - Friday. After the close of the day, the user has the option to choose either the High, Low, or Close of that day to find previous data that matches within a variance determined by the user; or an option to find the n closest matches (up to 20). That data is then matched to the corresponding next day data and plotted on the chart as a box. Example: Monday closes at +1 Deviation (Dev) of the Weekly Opening Range (WOR). The user sets the variance at 0.5 (0.5 Dev of the WOR), the indicator will search the lookback period for all Mondays that closed between 1.25 Dev and 0.75 Dev of the WOR. The matching Mondays will then be matched to their corresponding Tuesdays and the data for the High and Low from those Tuesdays will be placed on the chart as a box overlaying the current Tuesday. Each match is numbered so that corresponding Highs and Lows of each historical day can be identified. The same can be done for either the High or Low of the Previous Day.
The indicator has a table that can be shown.
Data shown in table:
Current Extension of the WOR
Maximum Extension of the WOR
Average WOR in %
Current WOR in %
Average Range for the day in % based on data set
Current Range for the day in %
Number of days in the data set
Number of Previous Day Matches
Variance for previous day data
Number of Intraday High Matches
Number of Intraday Low Matches
Variance for Intraday Matches
The table as well as all lines and boxes have the option of being shown or not, as well as have their settings customized to fit the users chart layout.
As with any indicator, do not let the data shown change your trading model. Past performance is not indicative to future performance.

Adaptive Range Breakout (ARB) IndicatorTitle: Adaptive Range Breakout (ARB) Indicator – Enhanced Mean Reversion with Dynamic Support/Resistance
Overview: The Adaptive Range Breakout (ARB) Indicator is designed to help traders identify potential mean reversion and breakout opportunities by leveraging a dynamic range based on recent price action and volatility. This script combines key elements such as Volume Profile analysis, ATR-based volatility adjustments, and an EMA trend filter to create a robust and adaptive trading tool. It aims to capture both trend continuations and reversals while filtering out noise in choppy markets.
Justification for Combining Components:
HVN (High Volume Node):
The core of this indicator is built around a custom VWAP calculation over a defined lookback period, which serves as the HVN line (High Volume Node). The HVN represents a volume-weighted average price, highlighting key levels where significant trading activity has occurred. These levels often act as areas of support or resistance, providing a reliable reference point for traders.
ATR-Based Dynamic Support and Resistance:
The Average True Range (ATR) is used to adjust the adaptive support and resistance levels around the HVN line. This ensures that the levels dynamically respond to changes in market volatility. The use of ATR helps filter out insignificant price movements and focuses on significant shifts in momentum, making the indicator adaptive to different market conditions.
EMA Trend Filter:
An Exponential Moving Average (EMA) is applied as a trend filter to distinguish between trending and range-bound market conditions. This filter helps in identifying whether the price movement is in line with the overall trend or if a potential reversal is more likely. By using the EMA crossover signals, the indicator can provide additional confirmation before generating buy or sell signals.
Adaptive Breakout and Mean Reversion Signals:
The indicator generates buy and sell signals based on the interaction between the price and the adaptive support/resistance levels. It incorporates a volatility filter to ensure that signals are only triggered when the market is sufficiently volatile, reducing the likelihood of false signals during low-volatility periods. Additionally, a cooldown period is implemented to prevent consecutive signals in quick succession, enhancing signal reliability.
Key Features:
Dynamic Range Levels: The adaptive support and resistance levels adjust based on recent price action and volatility, providing reliable areas for potential reversals or breakouts.
Volume-Weighted Analysis: The HVN line, derived from a custom VWAP calculation, highlights key price levels with significant trading activity, helping identify zones of support/resistance.
Trend Confirmation: The EMA trend filter helps differentiate between trend-following and mean-reversion signals, providing context for the generated buy and sell signals.
Volatility Filtering: The indicator uses ATR to gauge market volatility, ensuring signals are only generated during active market conditions.
Signal Cooldown: A customizable cooldown period reduces noise by spacing out signals, especially in choppy market environments.
Use Case:
The Adaptive Range Breakout (ARB) Indicator is suitable for traders looking to capitalize on both breakouts and mean-reversion opportunities. It is particularly useful in:
Range-Bound Markets: The adaptive support and resistance levels help capture reversals in range-bound conditions.
Trending Markets: The trend filter and breakout logic allow traders to follow momentum when the price breaks through key adaptive levels.
Intraday and Swing Trading: The dynamic nature of the indicator makes it applicable across different timeframes, catering to both intraday and swing traders.
Important Considerations:
This indicator does not guarantee future performance or provide an infallible prediction of price movements. It is a tool intended to support traders in their decision-making process based on historical price action and market conditions.
The effectiveness of the signals may vary depending on the asset, market conditions, and timeframe used. It is recommended to backtest the indicator and use it alongside other analysis techniques.
Always exercise caution and use appropriate risk management strategies when trading based on signals generated by this indicator.
Alerts: The indicator includes built-in alerts for:
Buy Signal Alert: Triggered when the price crosses above the adaptive support level, suggesting a potential reversal or continuation in an uptrend.
Sell Signal Alert: Triggered when the price crosses below the adaptive resistance level, indicating a potential reversal or continuation in a downtrend.
EMA Crossover Alerts: Alerts for EMA crossover signals, providing additional trend confirmation.
This script is a comprehensive tool designed to adapt to market conditions dynamically, combining multiple techniques to create a well-rounded approach to identifying trading opportunities. We encourage users to integrate it into their broader trading strategy and apply it with caution, understanding its strengths and limitations.

It helps to get a broad idea whether coming week market can be directional , volatile or range bound action. So this helps me to get a hint which style of approach should be given more important on positional basis like directional or non-directional.
I mostly track in NSE:BANKNIFTY , NSE:NIFTY , BSE:SENSEX
For example:
Average range difference of past 4 weeks is bigger in compare to current week range difference means good chance for directional opportunities.
Average range difference of past 4 weeks is lesser in compare to current week range difference means good chance for non-directional opportunities.
Directional or Non-directional hint is been shown in terms of probability . So based on this i plan my week and trades.
ICT Open Range Gap & 1st FVG (fadi)In his 2024 mentorship program, ICT detailed how price action interacts with Open Range Gaps and the initial 1-minute Fair Value Gap following the market open at 9:30 AM.
What is an Open Range Gap?
An Open Range Gap occurs when the market opens at 9:30 AM at a higher or lower level compared to the previous day's close at 4:14 PM, primarily relevant in futures trading. According to ICT, there is a statistical probability of 70% that the price action will close 50% or more of the Open Range Gap within the first 30 minutes of trading (9:30 AM to 10:00 AM).
What is the First 1-Minute Fair Value Gap?
ICT places significant emphasis on the first 1-minute Fair Value Gap (FVG) that forms after the market opens at 9:30 AM. The FVG must occur at 9:31 AM or later to be considered valid. This gap often presents key opportunities for traders, as it represents a temporary imbalance between supply and demand that the market seeks to correct.
Understanding and leveraging these patterns can enhance trading strategies by offering insights into potential price movements shortly after market open.
ICT Open Range Gap & 1st FVG
This indicator is engineered to identify and highlight the Open Range Gaps and the first 1-minute Fair Value Gap. Furthermore, it functions across multiple timeframes, from seconds to hours, catering to various trading preferences. This flexibility is particularly beneficial for traders who favor higher timeframes or wish to observe these patterns' application at broader intervals.
Settings
The Open Range Gap indicator offers flexible display settings. It identifies the quadrants and provides optional color coding to distinguish them. Additionally, it tracks the "fill" level to visualize how far the price action has progressed into the gap, enhancing traders' ability to monitor and analyze price movements effectively. By default, the Open Range Gap will stop extending at 10:00 AM; however, there is an option to continue extending until the end of the trading day.
The 1st Fair Value Gap (FVG) can be viewed on any timeframe the indicator is active on, offering various styling options to match each trader's preferences. While the 1st FVG is particularly relevant to the day it is created, previous 1st FVGs within the same week may provide additional value. This indicator allows traders to extend Monday's 1st FVG, marking the first FVG of the week, or to extend all 1st FVGs throughout the week.
Candle Range Theory | Flux Charts💎 GENERAL OVERVIEW
Introducing our new Candle Range Theory Indicator! This powerful tool offers a strategy built around the Candle Range Theory, which analyzes market movements through the relative size and structure of price candles. For more information about the process, check the "HOW DOES IT WORK" section.
Features of the new Candle Range Theory Indicator :
Implementation of the Candle Range Theory
FVG & Order Block Entry Methods
2 Different TP / SL Methods
Customizable Execution Settings
Customizable Backtesting Dashboard
Alerts for Buy, Sell, TP & SL Signals
📌 HOW DOES IT WORK ?
The Candle Range Theory (CRT) indicator operates by identifying significant price movements through the relative size and structure of candlesticks. A key part of the strategy is determining large candles based on their range compared to the Average True Range (ATR) in a higher timeframe. Once identified, a breakout of either the high wick or the low wick of the large candle is required. This breakout is considered a liquidity grab. After that, the indicator waits for confirmation through Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) or Order Blocks (OBs). The confirmation structure must be the opposite direction of the breakout, for example if the high wick is broken, a bearish FVG is required for the short entry. After a confirmation signal is received, the indicator will trigger entry points based on your chosen entry method (FVG or OB), and exit points will be calculated using either a dynamic ATR-based TP/SL method or fixed percentages. Alerts for Buy, Sell, Take-Proft, and Stop-Loss are available.
🚩 UNIQUENESS
This indicator stands out because it combines two highly effective entry methods: Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) and Order Blocks (OBs). You can choose between these strategies depending on market conditions. Additionally, the dynamic TP/SL system uses the ticker's volatility to automatically calculate stop-loss and take-profit targets. The backtesting dashboard provides metrics about the performance of the indicator. You can use it to tune the settings for best use in the current tiker. The Candle Range Theory approach offers more flexibility compared to traditional indicators, allowing for better customization and control based on your risk tolerance.
⚙️ SETTINGS
1. General Configuration
Higher Timeframe: Customize the higher timeframe for analysis. Recommended combinations include M15 -> H4, H4 -> Daily, Daily -> Weekly, and Weekly -> Monthly.
HTF Candle Size: Define the size of the higher timeframe candles as Big, Normal, or Small to filter valid setups based on their range relative to ATR.
Entry Mode: Choose between FVGs and Order Blocks for your entry triggers.
Require Retracement: Enable this option if you want a retracement to the FVG or OB for entry confirmation.
Show HTF Candle Lines: Toggle to display the higher timeframe candle lines for better visual clarity.
2. Fair Value Gaps
FVG Sensitivity: You may select between Low, Normal, High or Extreme FVG detection sensitivity. This will essentially determine the size of the spotted FVGs, with lower sensitivities resulting in spotting bigger FVGs, and higher sensitivities resulting in spotting all sizes of FVGs.
3. Order Blocks
Swing Length: Swing length is used when finding order block formations. Smaller values will result in finding smaller order blocks.
4. TP / SL
TP / SL Method:
a) Dynamic: The TP / SL zones will be auto-determined by the algorithm based on the Average True Range (ATR) of the current ticker.
b) Fixed : You can adjust the exact TP / SL ratios from the settings below.
Dynamic Risk: The risk you're willing to take if "Dynamic" TP / SL Method is selected. Higher risk usually means a better winrate at the cost of losing more if the strategy fails. This setting is has a crucial effect on the performance of the indicator, as different tickers may have different volatility so the indicator may have increased performance when this setting is correctly adjusted.

ICT Balanced Price Range [TradingFinder] BPR | FVG + IFVG🔵 Introduction
The ICT Balanced Price Range (BPR) indicator is a valuable tool that helps traders identify key areas on price charts where a balance between buyers and sellers is established. These zones can serve as critical points for potential price reversals or continuations.
🟣 Bullish Balanced Price Range
A Bullish BPR forms when a buying pressure zone (Bullish FVG) overlaps with a Bullish Inversion FVG. This overlap indicates a high probability of price moving upwards, making it a crucial area for traders to consider.
🟣 Bearish Balanced Price Range
Similarly, a Bearish BPR is created when a selling pressure zone (Bearish FVG) overlaps with a Bearish Inversion FVG. This zone is often seen as a key area where the price is likely to move downward.
🔵 How to Use
🟣 Identifying the Balanced Price Range (BPR)
To identify the Balanced Price Range (BPR), you must first locate two Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) on the price chart. One FVG should be on the sell side, and the other on the buy side. When these two FVGs horizontally oppose each other, the area where they overlap is recognized as the Balanced Price Range (BPR).
This BPR zone is highly sensitive to price movements due to the combination of two FVGs, often leading to strong market reactions. As the price approaches this area, the likelihood of a significant market move increases, making it a prime target for professional traders.
🟣 Bullish Balanced Price Range (Bullish BPR)
To effectively trade using a Bullish BPR, begin by identifying a bullish market structure and searching for bullish Price Delivery Arrays (PD Arrays). Once the market structure shifts to bullish in a lower time frame, locate a Bullish FVG within the Discount Zone that overlaps with a Bearish FVG.
Mark this overlapping zone and wait for the price to test it before executing a buy trade. Alternatively, you can set a Buy Limit order with a stop loss below the recent swing low and target profits based on higher time frame liquidity draws.
🟣 Bearish Balanced Price Range (Bearish BPR)
For bearish trades, start by identifying a bearish market structure and look for bearish PD Arrays. After the market structure shifts to bearish in a lower time frame, identify a Bearish FVG within the Discount Zone that overlaps with a Bullish FVG. Mark this overlapping zone and execute a sell trade when the price tests it.
You can also use a Sell Limit order with a stop loss above the recent swing high and target profits according to higher time frame liquidity draws.
🔵 Settings
🟣 Global Settings

Mitigation Level FVG and IFVG : Options include "Proximal", "Distal", or "50 % OB" modes, which you can choose based on your needs. The "50 % OB" line is the midpoint between distal and proximal.
🟣 Logic Settings
FVG Filter : This refines the number of identified FVG areas based on a specified algorithm to focus on higher quality signals and reduce noise.
Types of FVG filters :
Very Aggressive Filter : Adds a condition where, for an upward FVG, the last candle's highest price must exceed the middle candle's highest price, and for a downward FVG, the last candle's lowest price must be lower than the middle candle's lowest price. This minimally filters out FVGs.
Aggressive Filter : Builds on the Very Aggressive mode by ensuring the middle candle is not too small, filtering out more FVGs.
Defensive Filter : Adds criteria regarding the size and structure of the middle candle, requiring it to have a substantial body and specific polarity conditions, filtering out a significant number of FVGs.
Very Defensive Filte r: Further refines filtering by ensuring the first and third candles are not small-bodied doji candles, retaining only the highest quality signals.
🟣 Alert Settings
Alert Inversion FVG Mitigation : Enables alerts for Inversion FVG mitigation.
Message Frequency : Determines the frequency of alerts. Options include 'All' (every function call), 'Once Per Bar' (first call within the bar), and 'Once Per Bar Close' (final script execution of the real-time bar). Default is 'Once per Bar'.
Show Alert Time by Time Zone : Configures the time zone for alert messages. Default is 'UTC'.
Display More Info : Provides additional details in alert messages, including price range, date, hour, and minute. Set to 'Off' to exclude this information.
🔵 Conclusion
The ICT Balanced Price Range is a powerful and reliable tool for identifying key points on price charts. This strategy can be applied across various time frames and serves as a complementary tool alongside other indicators and technical analysis methods.
The most crucial aspect of utilizing this strategy effectively is correctly identifying FVGs and their overlapping areas, which comes with practice and experience.
Visible Range Volume Profile Heatmap [MyTradingCoder]The Visible Range Volume Profile Heatmap indicator offers a visually striking and insightful way to analyze trading volume within the visible price range of your chart. This tool goes beyond traditional volume profiles by displaying volume distribution as a heatmap, where color intensity represents the volume traded at each price level.
Key Features:
Dynamic Heatmap: Displays volume concentration using a color gradient, making it easy to spot areas of high and low trading activity.
Customizable Grid: Choose between auto-scaling or manual grid configuration to suit your analysis needs.
Flexible Color Schemes: Select from tri-tone or two-tone color palettes to represent bullish and bearish volume.
Point of Control (POC) Overlay: Highlights the price level with the highest trading volume, a critical reference point for traders.
Adjustable Transparency: Fine-tune the visibility of the heatmap to balance it with other chart elements.
Lookback Period: Customize the number of bars used for volume profile calculation.
How to Use the Visible Range Volume Profile Heatmap:
The Visible Range Volume Profile Heatmap is a powerful tool that can significantly enhance your market analysis when used effectively. To get the most out of this indicator, start by observing the overall pattern of the heatmap. Areas with darker colors represent higher volume concentration, indicating price levels where significant trading activity has occurred. These areas often serve as important support or resistance levels, as they represent prices where many traders have established positions.
Pay close attention to the Point of Control (POC), represented by a line running through the heatmap. This line marks the price level with the highest trading volume and often acts as a magnet for price action. Price tends to gravitate towards the POC, making it a crucial reference point for potential reversals or continuations.
When analyzing potential trades, consider how the current price relates to the volume distribution shown in the heatmap. If the price is approaching a high-volume area from below, it might face resistance; conversely, if it's approaching from above, that area might provide support. Breakouts beyond significant volume nodes can be particularly noteworthy, as they may signal a shift in market sentiment.
Use the heatmap in conjunction with your existing trading strategies. For example, if you're a trend follower, you might look for breakouts beyond major volume areas as confirmation of trend continuation. If you're a mean reversion trader, you might consider entries when price moves away from high-volume nodes, anticipating a return to these heavily traded levels.
The indicator can also help in identifying potential profit targets. As price moves away from one volume node, it often continues until it reaches the next significant volume area. These areas can serve as logical places to consider taking profits or adjusting your position.
For longer-term analysis, observe how the volume profile changes over time. Shifts in the distribution of volume can indicate evolving market dynamics. A broadening of the high-volume area might suggest increasing uncertainty, while a narrowing could indicate building consensus about price.
Settings Explained:
Auto Grid Configuration:
The "Auto Scale" option automatically adjusts the grid size based on the visible chart area. This ensures optimal visualization regardless of your chart's dimensions or zoom level.
Auto Scale Grid Size: Determines the total number of cells in the heatmap. A higher number provides more granular detail but may increase calculation time.
Auto Scale Grid Ratio: Adjusts the aspect ratio of the grid cells. A higher ratio creates wider, more rectangular cells, while a lower ratio results in more square-shaped cells. Experiment to find the best visual representation for your analysis.
Lookback Period:
The lookback setting determines how many columns (bars) of historical data the indicator uses to calculate the volume profile. A larger lookback will provide a more comprehensive view of historical volume distribution but may be slower to react to recent changes. A smaller lookback will be more responsive to recent volume patterns but may miss longer-term trends.
Manual Grid Configuration:
If you prefer more control over the grid layout, you can switch to manual configuration:
Column Width: Sets the number of price bars each column of the heatmap represents. A wider column aggregates more data, smoothing out the profile.
Number of Rows: Determines the vertical resolution of the heatmap. More rows provide finer price level detail but may make the overall pattern less distinct.
Tips for Optimization:
For short-term trading, use a smaller lookback and finer grid settings to capture recent market dynamics.
For longer-term analysis, increase the lookback and use wider columns to identify persistent volume patterns.
If the heatmap appears too blocky, increase the number of rows or decrease the column width.
If the heatmap is too granular, making patterns hard to discern, do the opposite.
Remember, the ideal settings often depend on your specific trading timeframe, the asset you're analyzing, and your personal analytical preferences. Don't hesitate to experiment with different configurations to find what works best for your trading style.
Conclusion
The Visible Range Volume Profile Heatmap is more than just an indicator—it's a versatile tool that enhances your ability to analyze and interpret market data.

The S&P Short-Range Oscillator (SRO), inspired by the principles of Jim Cramer's oscillator, is a technical analysis tool designed to help traders identify potential buy and sell signals in the stock market, specifically for the S&P 500 index. The SRO combines several market indicators to provide a normalized measure of market sentiment, assisting traders in making informed decisions.
The SRO utilizes two simple moving averages (SMAs) of different lengths: a 5-day SMA and a 10-day SMA. It also incorporates the daily price change and market breadth (the net change of closing prices). The 5-day and 10-day SMAs are calculated based on the closing prices. The daily price change is determined by subtracting the opening price from the closing price. Market breadth is calculated as the difference between the current closing price and the previous closing price.
The raw value of the oscillator, referred to as SRO Raw, is the sum of the daily price change, the 5-day SMA, the 10-day SMA, and the market breadth. This raw value is then normalized using its mean and standard deviation over a 20-day period, ensuring that the oscillator is centered and maintains a consistent scale. Finally, the normalized value is scaled to fit within the range of -15 to 15.
When interpreting the SRO, a value below -5 indicates that the market is potentially oversold, suggesting it might be a good time to start buying stocks as the market could be poised for a rebound. Conversely, a value above 5 suggests that the market is potentially overbought. In this situation, it may be prudent to hold on to existing positions or consider selling if you have substantial gains.
The SRO is visually represented as a blue line on a chart, making it easy to track its movements. Red and green horizontal lines mark the overbought (5) and oversold (-5) levels, respectively. Additionally, the background color changes to light red when the oscillator is overbought and light green when it is oversold, providing a clear visual cue.
By incorporating the S&P Short-Range Oscillator into your trading strategy, you can gain valuable insights into market conditions and make more informed decisions about when to buy, sell, or hold your stocks. However, always consider other market factors and perform your own analysis before making any trading decisions.
The S&P Short-Range Oscillator is a powerful tool for traders looking to gain insights into market sentiment. It provides clear buy and sell signals through its combination of multiple indicators and normalization process. However, traders should be aware of its lagging nature and potential complexity, and use it in conjunction with other analysis methods for the best results.
