+ Average Candle Bodies RangeACBR, or, Average Candle Bodies Range is a volatility and momentum indicator designed to indicate periods of increasing volatility and/or momentum. The genesis of the idea formed from my pondering what a trend trader is really looking for in terms of a volatility indicator. Most indicators I've come across haven't, in my opinion, done a satisfactory job of highlighting this. I kept thinking about the ATR (I use it for stops and targets) but I realized I didn't care about highs or lows in regards to a candle's volatility or momentum, nor do I care about their relation to a previous close. What really matters to me is candle body expansion. That is all. So, I created this.
ACBR is extremely simple at its heart. I made it more complicated of course, because why would I want anything for myself to be simple? Originally it was envisaged to be a simple volatility indicator highlighting areas of increasing and decreasing volatility. Then I decided some folks might want an indicator that could show this in a directional manner, i.e., an oscillator, so I spent some more hours tackling that
To start, the original version of the indicator simply subtracts opening price from closing price if the candle closes above the open, and subtracts the close from the open if the candle closes below the open. This way we get a positive number that simply measures candle expansion. We then apply a moving average to these values in order to smooth them (if you want). To get an oscillator we always subtract the close from the open, thus when a candle closes below its open we get a negative number.
I've naturally added an optional signal line as a helpful way of gauging volatility because obviously the values themselves may not tell you much. But I've also added something that I call a baseline. You can use this in a few ways, but first let me explain the two options for how the baseline can be calculated. And what do I mean by 'baseline?' I think of it as an area of the indicator where if the ACBR is below you will not want to enter into any trades, and if the ACBR is above then you are free to enter trades based on your system (or you might want to enter in areas of low volatility if your system calls for that). Waddah Attar Explosion is another indicator that implements something similar. The baseline is calculated in two different ways: one of which is making a Donchian Channel of the ACBR, and then using the basis as the baseline, while the other is applying an RMA to the cb_dif, which is the base unit that makes up the ACBR. Now, the basis of a Donchian Channel typically is the average of the highs and the lows. If we did that here we would have a baseline much too high (but maybe not...), however, I've made the divisor user adjustable. In this way you can adjust the height (or I guess you might say 'width' if it's an oscillator) however you like, thus making the indicator more or less sensitive. In the case of using the ACBR as the baseline we apply a multiplier to the values in order to adjust the height. Apologies if I'm being overly verbose. If you want to skip all of this I have tooltips in the settings for all of the inputs that I think need an explanation.
When using the indicator as an oscillator there are baselines above and below the zero line. One funny thing: if using the ACBR as calculation type for the baselines in oscillator mode, the baselines themselves will oscillate around the zero line. There is no way to fix this due to the calculation. That isn't necessarily bad (based on my eyeball test), but I probably wouldn't use it in such a way. But experiment! They could actually be a very fine entry or confirmation indicator. And while I'm on the topic of confirmation indicators, using this indicator as an oscillator naturally makes it a confirmation indicator. It just happens to have a volatility measurement baked into it. It may also be used as an exit and continuation indicator. And speaking of these things, there are optional shapes for indicating when you might want to exit or take a continuation trade. I've added alerts for these things too.
Lastly, oscillator mode is good for identifying divergences.
Above we have the indicator set to directional, or oscillator, mode. Baselines are Donchian Channels. I changed the default EMA length from 4 to 24 in this case, otherwise all the settings are default, as in the main image for the indicator (which is clearly set to non-directional). The indicator is set to requiring an advancing signal line for background and bar colors. Background color is not on by default. Candle colors, as you can see are aqua when above the top baseline (and only when the signal line is advancing, as per the settings), magenta when below the bottom baseline, and grey for anything else. The red and blue X's are exit signals. There are two types: one, when the signal line weakens and, two, when the ACBR crosses above or below the signal line. There are also arrows. These are continuation signals (ACBR crossing signal line).
Same image as above, but the baselines are set to ACBR rather than Donchian Channels.
Again, the same image, but with everything but the ACBR Baseline turned off. You can see how this might make for an excellent confirmation indicator, but for the areas of chap. Maybe run a second instance of the indicator on your chart as a volatility indicator, as you would not be using it in that way in this instance.
Here I have bar coloring turned off except for signal line crosses NOT requiring the signal line to be advancing. Background coloring is also turned on. You can see that these all line up with continuation signals, or exits for purple candles.
Same image as above but requiring the signal line to be advancing. You can see that continuation signals are not contingent upon the signal line to be advancing. I had it setup that way at first, but of course it still gave false signals, so I thought more signals (not that there are many) is better than fewer. To be sure, just because the indicator shows a continuation signal does not mean you should always take it.

Chart Time and Price Range It is easy to loose track of time and price volatility when the chart automatically scales to the bars on the chart. This helps you keep track.
This is a very simple indicator that is designed to ensure that you're looking at a segment of the chart that is relevant to the trade you're considering in both price distance and time.
The Problem:
When looking at a chart the lowest price is at the bottom of the screen, the highest price is at the top. The time at the beginning of the chart is based on how many bars and what timeframe you're looking at.
But is the price difference between the two wide or narrow? Are you seeing minutes, hours, or days of price action?
You can get the measure tool out, but you'll change the zoom level and now its different. You change the timeframe and its different.
This Solution:
This indicator puts a table on the screen that will tell you the X/Y distance of everything that is on your chart. If your hold period is 5 minutes, why would you be looking at 3 days of price action to find s/r or make a decision on a trade?
This will show you how much price opportunity was available in the amount of time you are currently viewing. Using the PineCoders VisibleChart library, we're retrieving the time and bar_index of the beginning of the chart so that everything that is currently on the chart is measured and it adapts as that changes.
It will work with light and dark themes (you can change the colors) and can be positioned wherever you prefer to see the information.

Average Daily Range Expansion Remaindeer for DaytradingThis indicator shows how much will the price need to go to fill its Average Daily Range based on the last 5 days (before today).
5-day ADR is used in concepts by ICT, Poltoratskiy and number of others.
Generally speaking, we would like to enter when there is a lot of room for price movement.
Outer lines are a full expansion. If the price moves only upside from the opening bell, it will reach as far.
Inner lines are a remaining expansion required to hit ADR. If the price initially moves in one direction and then reverses, this drip is substracted. This is more important metric!

Heiken Ashi Swing Range FilterIt uses heiken-ashi candles to find swing highs and lows, then check if candles are inside the range of them. This way you can filter out ranging market.
It may be better to use it in higher timeframe than current.
Chews Opening Range Breakout - FibonacciVisual tool for taking a Fibonacci retracement-backed opening range breakout.
How it works:
Short a first red candle. Long a first green candle.
You decide which Fibonacci % you prefer your stop loss to be, the plot and label will represent your decision.
Fibonacci logic is close --> open.
Recommendations:
Use a lower time frame interval like 3m.
Extra Notes:
On higher priced stocks, you may see some discrepancy (~$0.1!) when plotting a Fibonacci Retracement compared to the suggested stop loss.
Since this discrepancy happens on inherently more volatile stocks, I have chosen to neglect the discrepancy instead of going for point perfect stop loss exits.
Realistically, it won't matter unless you get very unlucky.
Fibonacci drawing is not a feature of what this indicator plots. It's there for reference, but I can add if requested.
I drafted this simple code to help me visualize automating this strategy.
"That's spoicy!"
ToDo: Add an optional two-sided ORB. Higher chance of success since it is meant for reversals.
Average Daily Range Lines + VWAP by TenozenOANDA:EURUSD
Hello! I created an indicator called ADRL (Average Daily Range Lines). This is my first original work, and I hope it's helpful to you guys.
1. Let me explain a bit of how it works...
So first of I need the ADR value, as by default length I use 19 for it. I want this indicator to calculate every start of the new day and break if another new day starts, so if the target level isn't reached, then the value would start to go back to 0 and get the new target level of the day. The target level is based on the first ADR multiplied by how much "percent" we want for the target level to hit, based on the first ADR value of the day. When the new day starts, the algo would start to add up the ADR value. If the added ADR hits the target level, it starts to plot a line by the candlestick by its high, low, and mid-level; it would create a new line if there is a new target being hit. So that's it.
About the VWAP, I took Tradingview's VWAP. I added the anchored part so I can plot a line if there is a new target level being hit. I hope that's okay.
2. How to use it...
- Using this indicator is pretty easy. When a new box is being plotted, that means that's the time when you should trade, as the box is still fresh. The VWAP helps if the market is trending or not.
- You can treat this indicator just like an S&R, as the price tends to respect the box. So best to use it as a pullback trade.
- We can assume if the price above the box, is a buy; vice versa.
3. Best Market to use...
- I suggest a trade in a nonvolatile market. The more volatile the market is, the harder the box is to be respected by the price. But if you really want to trade in that market, I suggest adjusting the inputs by how the box is being respected.
4. Suggestions...
- Use this indicator in 5 minutes chart if you day trade.
- Try using 30 minutes and setting the percent input from 100 to 80 and changing the ADR length from 19 to 14, this is much more suitable if you tend to hold trades.

ATR MultiplierOVERVIEW
The Average True Range Multiplier (ATRX) is a simple technical indicator that takes the value of the ATR indicator and multiplies it by a user-specified amount.
CONCEPTS
This indicator is primarily used to set key levels based on historical volatility. The ATR indicator alone measures the historical volatility of the selected instrument, this indicator just multiplies that value to save the hassle of doing that yourself.
God Number Channel V1 (GNC V1)Channel, made of 5 MAs, which a made this way: High of N-period SMA - Low of N-period SMA + X-period SMA (check the code), where N and X are defined by your input.
Main purpose: helps you understand in what range price can move.
WARNING!
HAS TO BE USED WITH OTHER INDICATORS TO HAVE MORE ACCURATE ENTRIES!!!
If the price is above or below the channel, it means that the movement is very strong and you count it as a trend, but be careful then the price returns to the channel, as correction will follow very soon. Use fib correction tool to understand the approximate depth of correction, works pretty good.
Recommendation: consider using the Vortex Indicator( len 21 and 14 are fine; for trend) and "Vumanchu Divergencies + B"(for anything, but calibrate for accuracy, otherwise there will be too much false signals). If you want to see more options where the price might go, just add new MA and add/substract to/from its value avg1*(any of fibonacci correction levels, I personally use 1.618 and 2.618 and for me it is ok): plot(show_ma1 ? ma1+( [ [ ]]]*avg1) : na, color = ma1_color, title="MA №1")
Recommendations and feedback are welcome(!)

Rets High/Low (2.0 Special Uncensored Edition)This script can be used as a visual aid in seeing the last highs and lows of price in a specific time period. It automatically updates the plots if new highs or lows are made within the given lookback period.
This is a fairly basic version currently, with new added features coming in future updates such as range between high/low and half and whole number detection.
Average True Range MultipliedModified version of an Average True Range indicator. You could adjust the multiplication of the ATR value on the settings. I personally use this indicator for a turtle trading strategy so I don't have to use calcuator to manually multiply the ATR value by two.
EMCHO Stochastic RangeCustom Stochastic Oscillator with range plot. Can be used to better identify overbought/oversold conditions within a single bar. In addition to the default Stochastic:
%K line smoothing algorithm selection;
%D line smoothing algorithm selection;
%K line high/low plotting;
%K line high/low calculation factor (in bars, default 1).
Crab Range FinderFinds the "crab range" of current price action.
///////
The lines corresponds are follows:
Green line represents the average high price
Orange line represents the median price
Yellow line represents the average low price
///////
By default, the last 5 bars are used when calculating the price lines, this value can be changed in settings as needed to tune for accuracy.
Root mean squared error range (RMSER)Similarly to Bollinger bands, the RMSER gives a support and resistance areas for the trading price. Unlike bollinger bands, which use standard deviation, this support and resistance is calculated with 2 * the root mean squared error away from the moving average. This works very well with indices, like $SPX, and prices only fall outside the range during black swan events like the 2020 crash.
Bitcoin Risk RangeThis is an extension of the original 'Bitcoin Bubble' indicator I previously made, but shows the necessary price required to reach a range of bitcoin's bubble level in the short term. I recommend using this metric with a daily timeframe to have an adequate amount of data.
Volatility Calculator for Daily Top and Bottom RangeWith the usage of ATR, applied on the close of the daily candle, I am calculated the volatility channels for the TOP and BOTTOM
Based on this logic, we can estimate, with a huge confidence factor, where the prices are going to be compressed for the trading day.
Having said that, lets take a look at the data gathered among the most important financial markets:

Based on this, we can assume with a very high confidence ( 70-80%) that the market is going to stay, within the range created from the BOT and TOP ATR points.
[MACLEN] TRUE RANGEThis is a true range (TR) based strategy with weighted moving average (WMA) smoothing to remove noise.
In addition, it includes a risk management strategy using 4 "safes" in the same operation to always seek to make a profit.
This is for evaluation only, and it is not recommended to use with real money.
It is a work in progress. I read your comments.
Average True Range - ImprovedAverage True Range - Improved is a small variation I have made to the standard ATR indicator. It will test the current ATR against the Historic Average ATR of your preference to see if the current volatility is high or low.
Once it has determined if it is high or low it will color code the circles at the top based on this information. Green means the current volatility is low and red means the current volatility is higher than the historic average.
In the settings I have also placed a couple styles, if you wish to show the ATR and Historic ATR in percent format instead of normal you can turn them on in the style settings. If you are using the percent format I recommend setting the Precision to 2-3 decimal places.
I hope you all enjoy this indicator, if you have any questions please feel free to post them in the comments.
S2BU2 True Range BandsWhat it is:
A twist on the DMI and ATR indicators.
How it is calculated:
What you see is a basic 14-period EMA calculated based on the opening price of the candle.
Extending from this base is the average true range, showing the expected realistic movement in that direction.
How you may interpret what you see:
Extended movement outside of those bands indicates a strong trend and also indicates a bad time to enter. In a sideways market the best time to get in and out is whenever the chart crosses the upper/lower bands. As usual, do not use this indicator alone to determine your entries/exits. If you find a regular behaviour related to this indicator that is not mentioned here feel free to reach out to me. I will consider adding it the list
How you may improve accuracy:
Most obvious - combine with different indicators measuring different things. This indicator measures potential direction. You may combine it with a simple trendindicator, momentum-indicator, etc. There is little use in combining it with another indicator measuring the same thing. When using 2 indicators for the same aspect, pick the one that is more reliable or reacts faster - depending on your preference and strategy.
Another Option to improve accuracy is to overlap the indicator on several timeframes. Dissonance is weakness. Ressonance is strength. if you see many tfs showing the same movement it may be a good time to get in - you will have to judge it yourself though ;)
