Strong/Weak Candle FinderStrong/Weak Candle Finder (SWCF)
Overview:
The Strong/Weak Candle Finder (SWCF) is a versatile TradingView indicator designed to help traders identify statistically significant candles based on their size relative to recent historical price action. By analyzing a lookback period, the indicator dynamically calculates a threshold to classify candles as either "strong" (larger than the threshold) or "weak" (smaller than the threshold), providing visual cues directly on your chart.
This tool can be invaluable for traders looking to:
Spot potential momentum breakouts or high volatility (Strong Candles).
Identify periods of consolidation or low volatility (Weak Candles).
Gauge shifts in market sentiment based on candle body or range dynamics.
How It Works:
Candle Size Calculation: You choose how candle size is measured from four methods:
High - Low: The full range of the candle.
High - Close: The distance from the high to the close.
Open - Close: The size of the candle body.
Low - Open: The distance from the low to the open.
Historical Analysis: The indicator looks back over a user-defined LookBack Period to collect candle sizes.
Grouping & Precision: To smooth the distribution, candle sizes are grouped based on the Group Precision Size. This parameter divides the observed range of candle sizes into a set number of "bins," and individual candle sizes are rounded to the nearest representative value of these bins.
Percentile Threshold: A dynamic Outlier Pip Value is calculated based on the Outlier Percentile you set.
If Display Mode is "Strong Candles," this threshold represents the Nth percentile of the largest candle sizes (e.g., the 80th percentile if Outlier Percentile is 20%). Candles larger than this are marked as "Strong."
If Display Mode is "Weak Candles," this threshold represents the Nth percentile of the smallest candle sizes (e.g., the 20th percentile). Candles smaller than this are marked as "Weak."
Visual Markers: When a current candle meets the criteria (strong or weak based on your display mode), a configurable shape is plotted above (for strong) or below (for weak) the candle.
Resampling: The historical distribution and outlier threshold are recalculated every Resample Period (number of bars) to adapt to changing market conditions.
Key Features:
Dynamic Thresholds: Adapts to market volatility instead of using fixed pip values.
Customizable Candle Definition: Choose from four methods to define what "candle size" means to your strategy.
Flexible Display Modes: Focus on either identifying exceptionally strong candles or unusually weak ones.
Adjustable Sensitivity: Fine-tune the rarity of signals with Outlier Percentile and Group Precision Size.
Visual Chart Markers: Clear, customizable shapes (arrow, circle, etc.) for easy identification.
Periodic Recalculation: Ensures the indicator remains relevant as market dynamics evolve.
Parameters:
Display Mode:
Strong Candles: Highlights candles larger than the upper percentile threshold.
Weak Candles: Highlights candles smaller than the lower percentile threshold.
Resample Period (Candles): How often (in bars) to recalculate the historical distribution and outlier threshold.
LookBack Period (Candles): The number of past candles to analyze for the historical distribution. (Note: Plots will only begin after this many bars have loaded on the chart).
Group Precision Size: Number of groups to divide the candle size range into for rounding historical sizes. Higher values mean finer precision (less rounding).
Outlier Percentile (%): The percentile used to define the threshold for strong/weak candles.
Candle Size Method: (High-Low, High-Close, Open-Close, Low-Open).
Visuals:
Strong Shape: Choose the icon style for strong candles.
Weak Shape: Choose the icon style for weak candles.
Shape Size: Adjust the size of the plotted icons.
How to Use:
Strong Candles:
May indicate increased momentum, potential breakout confirmations, or high conviction moves.
Consider using in trending markets or as a filter for entry signals.
Weak Candles:
May signal market indecision, low volatility, consolidation phases, or potential exhaustion of a prior move.
Can be useful for identifying range-bound conditions or periods to be cautious.
Experimentation: Adjust the LookBack Period, Outlier Percentile, and Group Precision Size to match your trading style and the characteristics of the asset you are trading. What constitutes "strong" or "weak" can vary significantly.
Confirmation Tool: Use in conjunction with other indicators (e.g., moving averages, RSI, volume) for more robust trading decisions.
Important Notes:
The indicator requires sufficient historical data (LookBack Period) to initialize. You may not see plots on the chart immediately if there aren't enough bars loaded.
Like all indicators, the SWCF is not a standalone trading system and should not be used as the sole basis for financial decisions.
Past performance is not indicative of future results. Always use appropriate risk management.
We hope you find the Strong/Weak Candle Finder a valuable addition to your trading toolkit!
EMA Cross Strategy + Breakout Entry (Trend Filtered)A High-Probability Trading Strategy Using EMAs and Long-Term Trend Filters in Pine Script
In financial markets, successful trading often depends on identifying high-probability setups with consistent rules and clear confirmations. The Pine Script developed here combines the simplicity of exponential moving average (EMA) crossovers with the robustness of long-term trend filtering, enhancing entry timing and reducing exposure to false signals. This essay explains the strategy’s logic, technical components, strengths, and its potential effectiveness for active traders.
Introduction to the Strategy
This Pine Script trading strategy is built upon two foundational components:
1. EMA Crossovers: A well-established technique where a fast EMA (8-period) and a slower EMA (21-period) are used to detect short-term momentum shifts.
2. Trend Filtering Using SMA: A 100-period simple moving average (SMA) acts as a long-term trend indicator. Only trades in the direction of the dominant trend are considered valid.
These two elements are combined to create a high-probability, trend-following system that aims to capture meaningful price movements while avoiding low-quality entries that typically occur during sideways or choppy markets.
⸻
Core Entry Logic
The script defines two distinct entry conditions designed to complement each other:
1. Standard EMA Crossover Entry (Type A)
This is a classic momentum entry condition. When the 8 EMA crosses above the 21 EMA, it indicates a shift in short-term momentum. However, this signal alone is insufficient in many market conditions, especially when the broader trend is unclear or reversing. To mitigate this risk, the crossover is only accepted when the 100 SMA is in an uptrend, defined as the SMA currently being higher than its value on the previous bar. This ensures the strategy only takes long entries in bullish environments, aligning with the principle of trading with the trend.
2. Breakout Entry After Trend Reversal (Type B)
The second entry condition captures powerful “breakout” opportunities that often follow a fresh trend reversal. Specifically, when the 100 SMA transitions from a downtrend to an uptrend, the script starts a 15-bar lookback window. If, during that window, the price, 8 EMA, and 21 EMA all rise above the long-term SMA, it is considered a confirmation of trend strength and momentum alignment. A long entry is then signaled.
This condition is designed to capitalize on early participation in new uptrends, catching strong price expansions that typically follow a change in market direction.
⸻
Exit Logic
The exit logic is intentionally simple and tied to the same framework as entries. A position is exited when the 8 EMA crosses below the 21 EMA, and the 100 SMA remains in an uptrend. This ensures that exits are aligned with weakening momentum while the larger trend remains bullish. This avoids premature exits during minor pullbacks and focuses on retaining trades during sustained uptrends.
Notably, exits do not occur when the long-term trend has flipped bearish. This design choice prevents “reverse trend” noise from triggering exits too early and instead focuses purely on short-term weakness within a bullish macro backdrop.
⸻
Technical Components of the Script
The Pine Script is structured with clear and logical components:
1. Inputs: The user can customize the periods for the fast EMA, slow EMA, long-term SMA, and the trend-reversal lookback window (defaulted to 15 bars).
2. Trend Detection: The long-term trend is calculated using the slope of the 100 SMA. If the SMA is rising, the trend is marked as bullish and is visually plotted in green; otherwise, it is plotted in red.
3. State Management: The script tracks how many bars have passed since the long-term trend turned bullish. This is managed using a var integer variable that resets upon trend reversal and increments while the trend remains up.
4. Entry and Exit Signals: These are plotted as shape markers on the chart — green triangles for entry and red triangles for exit — providing visual clarity.
Each of these components works in harmony to ensure that trade signals are issued only in favorable environments with multiple confirmations.
⸻
Benefits of the Strategy
There are several key advantages to using this hybrid strategy:
1. Filters Out Choppy Markets
By requiring the long-term SMA to be in an uptrend for any entry or exit signal to be valid, the strategy avoids noisy, sideways price action where EMA crossovers are more likely to produce false signals.
2. Dual Entry Approach
The inclusion of two different entry types allows the strategy to both:
• Capture new trends as they emerge (Breakout Entry).
• Ride existing trends using EMA crossover logic (Standard Entry).
This dual approach balances early participation with trend confirmation, offering flexibility for different market conditions.
3. Clear Exit Criteria
By tying exits to a momentum weakening signal (EMA crossover down), traders are not left guessing when to exit. This supports consistent execution and reduces emotional decision-making.
4. Trend Alignment
Aligning both entry and exit decisions with the broader trend increases the probability that trades will move in the desired direction. This is a cornerstone of successful trend-following strategies.
5. Modular Design

ICT Opening Range Projections (tristanlee85)ICT Opening Range Projections
This indicator visualizes key price levels based on ICT's (Inner Circle Trader) "Opening Range" concept. This 30-minute time interval establishes price levels that the algorithm will refer to throughout the session. The indicator displays these levels, including standard deviation projections, internal subdivisions (quadrants), and the opening price.
🟪 What It Does
The Opening Range is a crucial 30-minute window where market algorithms establish significant price levels. ICT theory suggests this range forms the basis for daily price movement.
This script helps you:
Mark the high, low, and opening price of each session.
Divide the range into quadrants (premium, discount, and midpoint/Consequent Encroachment).
Project potential price targets beyond the range using configurable standard deviation multiples .
🟪 How to Use It
This tool aids in time-based technical analysis rooted in ICT's Opening Range model, helping you observe price interaction with algorithmic levels.
Example uses include:
Identifying early structural boundaries.
Observing price behavior within premium/discount zones.
Visualizing initial displacement from the range to anticipate future moves.
Comparing price reactions at projected standard deviation levels.
Aligning price action with significant times like London or NY Open.
Note: This indicator provides a visual framework; it does not offer trade signals or interpretations.
🟪 Key Information
Time Zone: New York time (ET) is required on your chart.
Sessions: Supports multiple sessions, including NY midnight, NY AM, NY PM, and three custom timeframes.
Time Interval: Supports multi-timeframe up to 15 minutes. Best used on a 1-minute chart for accuracy.
🟪 Session Options
The Opening Range interval is configurable for up to 6 sessions:
Pre-defined ICT Sessions:
NY Midnight: 12:00 AM – 12:30 AM ET
NY AM: 9:30 AM – 10:00 AM ET
NY PM: 1:30 PM – 2:00 PM ET
Custom Sessions:
Three user-defined start/end time pairs.
This example shows a custom session from 03:30 - 04:00:
🟪 Understanding the Levels
The Opening Price is the open of the first 1-minute candle within the chosen session.
At session close, the Opening Range is calculated using its High and Low . An optional swing-based mode uses swing highs/lows for range boundaries.
The range is divided into quadrants by its midpoint ( Consequent Encroachment or CE):
Upper Quadrant: CE to high (premium).
Lower Quadrant: Low to CE (discount).
These subdivisions help visualize internal range dynamics, where price often reacts during algorithmic delivery.
🟪 Working with Ranges
By default, the range is determined by the highest high and lowest low of the 30-minute session:
A range can also be determined by the highest/lowest swing points:
Quadrants outline the premium and discount of a range that price will reference:
Small ranges still follow the same algorithmic logic, but may be deemed insignificant for one's trading. These can be filtered in the settings by specifying a minimum ticks limit. In this example, the range is 42 ticks (10.5 points) but the indicator is configured for 80 ticks (20 points). We can select which levels will plot if the range is below the limit. Here, only the 00:00 opening price is plotted:
You may opt to include the range high/low, quadrants, and projections as well. This will plot a red (configurable) range bracket to indicate it is below the limit while plotting the levels:
🟪 Price Projections
Projections extend beyond the Opening Range using standard deviations, framing the market beyond the initial session and identifying potential targets. You define the standard deviation multiples (e.g., 1.0, 1.5, 2.0).
Both positive and negative extensions are displayed, symmetrically projected from the range's high and low.
The Dynamic Levels option plots only the next projection level once price crosses the previous extreme. For example, only the 0.5 STDEV level plots until price reaches it, then the 1.0 level appears, and so on. This continues up to your defined maximum projections, or indefinitely if standard deviations are set to 0.
This example shows dynamic levels for a total of 6 sessions, only 1 of which meet a configured minimum limit of 50 ticks:
Small ranges followed by significant displacement are impacted the most with the number of levels plotted. You may hide projections when configuring the minimum ticks.
A fixed standard deviation will plot levels in both directions, regardless of the price range. Here, we plot up to 3.0 which hiding projections for small ranges:

Pro Signal Suite [LePasha]Pro Signal Suite
Description:
This advanced signal indicator combines candlestick pattern analysis, RSI momentum, and candle stability metrics to generate precise Buy and Sell signals on your chart.
It identifies bullish and bearish engulfing patterns filtered by candle stability and RSI thresholds, enhanced by price movement comparison over a configurable lookback period.
Designed for clarity and customization, it offers multiple label styles and colors with options to suppress repeating signals for clean chart visualization.
Core Logic:
• Candle Stability Index: Measures the strength of a candle by comparing its body size to its total range (high-low). Higher values indicate more reliable candle formations.
• RSI Filter: Uses the Relative Strength Index (RSI) to identify overbought and oversold market conditions.
• Engulfing Patterns: Detects classic bullish and bearish engulfing candlestick patterns as entry triggers.
• Price Movement Confirmation: Checks price movement over a user-defined number of candles to confirm trend continuation.
• Bar Confirmation: Signals are issued only on confirmed bars to avoid premature alerts.
Inputs:
• Candle Stability Threshold (0-1): Minimum ratio of candle body to range to consider a candle stable.
• RSI Threshold (0-100): RSI cutoff level to identify oversold (for Buy) or overbought (for Sell) conditions.
• Candle Lookback Length (≥3): Number of candles to compare price movement for trend validation.
• Prevent Repeating Signals (true/false): Option to disable multiple consecutive identical signals for cleaner charts.
Visual Settings:
• Label Size: Choose from huge, large, normal, small, or tiny.
• Label Style: Select from text bubble, triangle, or arrow.
• BUY/SELL Label Colors and Text Colors: Fully customizable for personal preference or color schemes.
Usage:
Ideal for traders seeking a simple yet robust entry signal based on price action and momentum indicators.
Can be combined with other tools like Supertrend, VWAP, or EMA for enhanced trading strategies.
Best applied on confirmed bars to reduce noise and false signals.
Limitations:
• Like all indicators, signals are not guaranteed and should be used alongside risk management.
• Best used on liquid markets and suitable timeframes for candlestick pattern reliability.
BVB dominance bars
Hello everyone, this is my first indicator. these candles shows you who's in control. I like to think its some what close to heikin ashi candles as it shows you the Trend but doesn't average it out. also shows you when there is indecision. please read the instructions on how it works. its not a stand alone strategy. but adds value to your own strategy.
📖 How It Works
The BvB Dominance Bars indicator is a visual tool that colors candles based on market control—whether bulls or bears are in charge. It uses a custom metric comparing the price's relationship to a smoothed moving average (EMA), then normalizes that difference over time to express relative bullish or bearish pressure.
Here’s the breakdown:
Bulls vs Bears Logic:
A short-term EMA (default: 14-period) is used to establish a midpoint reference.
Bull Pressure is calculated as how far the high is above this EMA.
Bear Pressure is how far the low is below this EMA.
These are normalized over a lookback period (default: 120 bars) to produce percentile scores (0–100) for both bulls and bears.
Dominance & Color Coding:
The indicator compares normalized bull and bear scores.
Candles are color-coded based on:
Bright Lime: Strong Bull Dominance (with high confidence)
Soft Lime/Yellow: Moderate Bull Control
Bright Red: Strong Bear Dominance
Soft Red/Yellow: Moderate Bear Control
Gray: Neutral/Low conviction
Optional Live Label:
A small floating label shows who has control: “Bull Control,” “Bear Control,” or “Neutral.”
🧠 How to Use It (Example Strategy)
The BvB Dominance Bars indicator is not a standalone buy/sell signal but a market sentiment overlay. It’s most effective when combined with your own strategy, like price action or trend-following tools.
Here’s an example use case:
🧪 Reversal Confirmation Strategy
Objective: Catch high-probability reversals during key kill zones or supply/demand levels.
Setup:
Mark your key support/resistance zones using your standard method (e.g., FVGs, liquidity sweeps, or ICT PD arrays).
Wait for price to reach one of these zones.
Watch candle colors from the BvB Dominance Bars:
If you expect a bullish reversal, wait for a transition from red/gray candles to lime green or bright lime (bullish dominance taking over).
If you expect a bearish reversal, look for a change from green/gray to red or bright red.
Entry Filter:
Only enter if the dominant color holds for 2+ candles.
Avoid trades when candles are gray or yellow (indecision/neutral).
Exit Option:
Exit if dominance shifts against you (e.g., from lime to red), or use structure-based stops.
⚙️ Settings You Can Adjust:
BvB Period: Controls how fast EMA responds.
Bars Back: Determines how long the normalization looks back.
Thresholds: Influence how strong the dominance must be to change candle color.
✅ Best Used When:
You already have a bias and just want a confirmation of sentiment.
You're trading intraday and want a feel for shifting momentum without relying on noisy indicators.
You want a clean, color-coded overlay to help filter out fakeouts and indecision.
X OC StoryOverview
The "X OC Story" is a Pine Script indicator that visualizes the Open-Close range of a higher timeframe (HTF) candle on a lower timeframe chart. By plotting dynamic lines to represent the open and close prices of the previous HTF bar, this tool gives traders a clearer context of recent market sentiment and structural shifts. It includes color-coded visual fills to distinguish between bullish and bearish candles and offers the option to display only the most recent range.
Concept
1. Multi-Timeframe Analysis (MTF)
At its core, this indicator utilizes multi-timeframe analysis by requesting open, high, low, and close values from a user-defined HTF (input.timeframe('60')) and applying them to a lower timeframe chart. This allows traders to incorporate higher timeframe information without switching chart intervals.
2. Timeframe Change Detection
The indicator detects when a new HTF candle begins which lets the script know when to capture and visualize a new set of HTF open-close values.
3. Encapsulation with Custom Type (candles)
The script defines a custom type candles to encapsulate OHLC values of the previous HTF candle. This improves code readability and structure by keeping all relevant HTF data in a single object.
4. Dynamic Line Drawing
When a new HTF candle is detected, two horizontal lines are drawn for Open and Close. These are updated dynamically on each bar to extend across the entire HTF candle range on the lower timeframe chart.
5. Visual Highlighting
a shaded area is drawn between the open and close lines which help highlight market structure without overwhelming the chart.
6. Selective Persistence of Drawings
Users can enable deleteOld to show only the most recent HTF open-close range. When enabled, previously drawn lines are tracked in an array and deleted upon creation of a new range, keeping the chart clean and focused.
How a Trader Might Use This Tool
Contextual Decision-Making
This indicator helps traders see where the market is trading relative to the previous HTF candle:
Trading above the HTF close may suggest bullish continuation
Trading below the HTF open may indicate a bearish reversal or breakdown
Confluence Zones
The open and close lines of HTF candles often act as support/resistance levels. A trader might:
Watch for rejections or breakouts at these levels
Use them in confluence with intraday setups or trend indicators
Scalping or Intraday Strategy Support
Since this visual is drawn on a lower timeframe (like 5m or 15m), it’s particularly useful for scalpers or day traders who want to factor in HTF sentiment without leaving their active chart.
Cleaner Charting
With the optional setting to display only the most recent range (deleteOld), traders avoid clutter and focus on the current actionable zone.
Summary
“X OC Story” is a clean, visual, and effective multi-timeframe utility that helps traders:
Identify HTF open-close context
Highlight possible support/resistance zones
Analyze sentiment and structure visually
It’s an excellent addition to any discretionary trader’s toolkit for improved context awareness and informed entries or exits.
Same Date Last Year PatternThis tool is designed to help you analyze past price patterns from the same date last year to gain insights into potential market behavior today. It’s perfect for traders who want to spot recurring trends or directional cues (buy or sell signals) based on historical candle formations, rather than focusing on exact price levels. Here’s how it works and how to use it:
How It Works
Historical Lookback: The script examines the price action from the same calendar date last year (e.g., May 26, 2024, for today, May 26, 2025). Since markets may be closed on weekends or holidays (like Memorial Day), it automatically finds the nearest trading day with available data.
Pattern Detection: Instead of showing raw prices (which may not match today’s higher or lower price range), it analyzes the candle’s shape and direction. It tells you if the past candle was bullish (closing higher, suggesting a potential buy) or bearish (closing lower, suggesting a potential sell), along with details like wick size and the trend leading up to it.
Contextual Insight: It checks the trend from the previous few days (uptrend, downtrend, or sideways) to give you a sense of the market’s mood back then. This helps you decide if the pattern might repeat.
Prediction Suggestion: Based on last year’s candle direction, it offers a simple guess for the next candle’s potential move (e.g., bullish or bearish), though this is for reference only and not a guaranteed signal.
Key Features
Customizable Asset Type: You can set it for "Traditional" markets (e.g., stocks, forex) or "Crypto" (e.g., Bitcoin), adjusting how it searches for data based on whether the market runs 24/7.
Visual Cues: Labels appear on your chart showing the pattern and prediction, with colors (green for bullish, red for bearish, blue for prediction) to make it easy to read.
Range Consideration: This tool works best when the chart’s price range is around 1000 (e.g., stocks trading near $1000 or crypto pairs with similar values). Outside this range, the label positioning might not align perfectly due to scaling differences.
How to Use
Add to Chart: Load this script into TradeLocker’s indicator section on a daily chart for best results.
Select Asset Type: In the settings, choose "Traditional" for stocks or forex, or "Crypto" for 24/7 markets like Bitcoin.
Check Data: On the same date each year (e.g., May 26), it will display the pattern from last year’s nearest trading day. Ensure your chart has at least 455 days of historical data loaded to cover the search range.
Interpret Results: Look at the label to see the pattern (e.g., "Bullish Candle, Potential Buy"), trend context, and prediction. Use this to inform your trading decisions, but combine it with other tools for confirmation.
Important Notes
Limitations: It may show "No Data Found" if historical data isn’t available within its search window (up to 90 days around the target date for traditional markets). This is more likely for weekends or holidays. For best results, test it on assets trading around the 1000 price range.
Not a Guarantee: The prediction is based solely on last year’s candle and trend, not a definitive signal. Use it as a guide alongside your strategy and market analysis.
Customization: If you need it to work outside the 1000 range or add more pattern details (e.g., specific candlestick types), let the community know, and we can refine it!
This tool was crafted to help traders explore historical patterns in a user-friendly way. Share your feedback or suggestions in the TradeLocker community to make it even better!
EMA 9/21 Cross + Volume FilterThis indicator plots fast (9-period) and slow (21-period) EMAs and highlights bullish or bearish crossovers only when volume exceeds its 20-period average, filtering out low-participation whipsaws. It places “UP”/“DN” triangles on qualifying crosses and includes built-in alertcondition() triggers plus a single alert() call, so one “Any alert() function call” alert delivers real-time push, e-mail, or webhook notifications. Adjustable inputs: EMA lengths, volume-SMA length, and a toggle to show/hide signal labels. Ideal for trend-following scalps or swing entries on any timeframe and ticker.
Consolidation BoxesConsolidation Boxes — Indicator
Overview :
This indicator automatically detects and highlights periods of market consolidation, drawing shaded boxes around tight price ranges where the market is temporarily indecisive. It’s designed to help traders easily identify when price is moving sideways — a key phase that often precedes a breakout.
Key Features :
-Automatic Consolidation Detection: Recognizes when a series of candles close within a defined range and marks the area as a consolidation zone.
-Customizable Parameters: Set how many candles must consolidate before a box is drawn.
-Breakout Alerts: Notifies you when price breaks out above or below a consolidation box — a potential signal for trade entries.
-Clean Chart Management: Optional setting to automatically remove old zones when new consolidations form.
-Dynamic Box Extension: As long as price stays within the box, the zone will continue to extend until a breakout occurs.
Inputs :
- Minimum Consolidation Candles : Define how many candles must fit within a range to confirm a consolidation zone.
- Terminate Old Zones : Automatically delete the previous zone when a new one is formed (optional).
How to use :
1. Add the Indicator: Apply it to any chart — works across all timeframes and markets (e.g., crypto, stocks, forex).
2. Adjust Parameters: Choose how many candles must consolidate to form a valid box. Enable or disable zone termination to fit your preference.
3. Watch the Boxes: The indicator draws a shaded box once it detects a valid consolidation zone. The box will continue to extend as long as price stays within the range.
4. Look for Breakouts: When price breaks above or below the box, a breakout is confirmed and an alert (if enabled) will trigger — great for breakout trading strategies.
5. Use in Strategy: Combine with volume, momentum indicators, or price action to validate breakouts and filter false signals.
Ideal For :
Traders who want to visually identify consolidation areas and trade breakout setups with minimal manual analysis. Especially useful for scalpers, day traders, and swing traders looking to anticipate volatility after quiet periods.
