BBr1 Candle Range Volitility Gap Indicator Modified Candle Range Volatility Gap Indicator 1. Useful to analyze bars body and wicks and volatility of security. 2. Added a Percentage Option - easier to analyze across different securities. 2. Added a Standard Deviation ("1 std dev= 68.2%, 2 std dev=95.4%, 3 std dev=99.7%, etc") based upon user defined lookback period. 3. Added the ability to include Gaps in Analysis. (Gaps are when the prior closing cost does not equal opening price) 4. Possible Uses setting up stop losses, trailing entries/exits (inside range or outside range). 5. Use it with other indicators in determining if to make an entry or close entry. Reposted Original Description by © ka66 Kamal Advani Visually shows the Body Range (open to close) and Candle Range (high to low). Semi-transparent overlapping area is the full Candle Range, and fully-opaque smaller area is the Body Range. For aesthetics and visual consistency, Candle Range follows the direction of the Body Range, even though technically it's always positive (high - low). The different plots for each range type also means the UI will allow deselecting one or the other as needed. For example, some strategies may care only about the Body Range, rather than the entire Candle Range, so the latter can be hidden to reduce noise. Threshold horizontal lines are plotted, so the trader can modify these high and low levels as needed through the user interface. These need to be configured to match the instrument's price range levels for the timeframe. The defaults are pretty arbitrary for +/- 0.0080 (80 pips in a 4-decimal place forex pair). Where a range reaches or exceeds a threshold, it's visually marked as well with a shape at the Body or Candle peak, to assist with quicker visual potential setup scanning, for example, to anticipate a following reversal or continuation.

Mars Signals - SSL Trend Analyzer Introduction The "Mars Signals - Precision Trend Analyzer with SSL Baseline & Price Action Zones" is a comprehensive technical analysis tool designed for traders seeking to enhance their market analysis and trading strategies. This indicator integrates multiple advanced trading concepts, including dynamic moving averages, trend detection algorithms, momentum indicators, volume analysis, higher timeframe confirmation, candlestick pattern recognition, and precise price action zones. By combining these elements, the indicator aims to provide clear and actionable buy and sell signals, helping traders to make informed decisions in various market conditions. Core Components and Functionality 1.Dynamic Baseline Calculation Moving Average Types: The indicator allows users to select from a variety of moving average types for the baseline calculation, including Simple Moving Average (SMA), Exponential Moving Average (EMA), Hull Moving Average (HMA), Weighted Moving Average (WMA), Double EMA (DEMA), Triple EMA (TEMA), Least Squares Moving Average (LSMA), Triangular Moving Average (TMA), Kijun (from Ichimoku Kinko Hyo), and McGinley's Dynamic. Baseline Length: Users can customize the length of the moving average, providing flexibility to adjust the sensitivity of the baseline to market movements. Signal Line Generation: The indicator computes a dynamic signal line based on the relationship between the close price and the moving averages of the high and low prices. This signal line adapts to market volatility and trend changes. 2.SSL Baseline Integration SSL Baseline: In addition to the primary baseline, the indicator incorporates an SSL (Semaphore Signal Level) Baseline, which further refines trend detection by considering the highs and lows over a specified period. Dual Confirmation: The combination of the primary baseline and the SSL baseline enhances the reliability of the trend signals by requiring agreement between both baselines before generating a signal. 3.Momentum and Trend Filters Relative Strength Index (RSI): The indicator uses the RSI to assess the momentum of price movements, filtering out signals that occur during overbought or oversold conditions. Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD): The MACD is employed to identify the direction and strength of the trend, adding another layer of confirmation to the signals. Average Directional Index (ADX): The ADX measures the strength of the trend, ensuring that signals are generated only when the market shows significant directional movement. 4.Volume Analysis Volume Filter: An optional volume filter compares the current volume to its moving average, allowing traders to focus on signals that occur during periods of higher market activity. 5.Higher Timeframe Confirmation Multi-Timeframe Analysis: The indicator can incorporate data from a higher timeframe, comparing the current price to the higher timeframe's baseline and signal line. This feature helps traders align their trades with the broader market trend. 6.Candlestick Pattern Recognition Bullish Patterns: The indicator detects bullish patterns such as Bullish Engulfing, Piercing Line, Hammer, and Doji. Bearish Patterns: It also identifies bearish patterns like Bearish Engulfing, Dark Cloud Cover, Shooting Star, and Doji. Pattern Prioritization: The patterns are prioritized to highlight the most significant formations, which can serve as additional confirmation for trade entries and exits. 7.Price Action Zones Support and Resistance Levels: The indicator automatically identifies pivot highs and lows to establish dynamic support and resistance levels. Zone Visualization: It draws shaded rectangles on the chart to represent these zones, providing a clear visual aid for potential reversal or breakout areas. ATR-Based Zone Width: The zones' thickness is dynamically calculated using the Average True Range (ATR), adjusting to the current market volatility. Background Coloring: The chart background changes color when the price is above the maximum resistance or below the minimum support, alerting traders to significant price movements. Interpreting the Signals 1.Buy Signals Conditions: Price crosses above the signal line. RSI is below 70 (not overbought). MACD line is above the signal line (indicating bullish momentum). ADX is above the user-defined threshold (default is 20), confirming a strong trend. (Optional) Volume is above its moving average if the volume filter is enabled. (Optional) Price is above the higher timeframe baseline and signal line if the higher timeframe filter is enabled. (Optional) A bullish candlestick pattern is detected if the candlestick pattern filter is enabled. Visual Indicators: An upward-pointing label with the text "BUY" appears below the price bar. The baseline and SSL baseline lines turn to colors indicating bullish conditions. 2.Sell Signals Conditions: Price crosses below the signal line. RSI is above 30 (not oversold). MACD line is below the signal line (indicating bearish momentum). ADX is above the user-defined threshold, confirming a strong trend. (Optional) Volume is above its moving average if the volume filter is enabled. (Optional) Price is below the higher timeframe baseline and signal line if the higher timeframe filter is enabled. (Optional) A bearish candlestick pattern is detected if the candlestick pattern filter is enabled. Visual Indicators: A downward-pointing label with the text "SELL" appears above the price bar. The baseline and SSL baseline lines turn to colors indicating bearish conditions. 3.Support and Resistance Zones Interpretation: Resistance Zones: Represent areas where the price may face selling pressure. A break above these zones can signal a strong bullish move. Support Zones: Represent areas where the price may find buying interest. A break below these zones can signal a strong bearish move. Background Color: The background turns red when the price is above the maximum resistance, indicating potential overextension. The background turns green when the price is below the minimum support, indicating potential undervaluation. Effective Usage Strategies 1.Customization Adjusting Baseline and SSL Settings: Traders should experiment with different moving average types and lengths to match their trading style and the specific characteristics of the asset being analyzed. Filtering Parameters: Modify RSI, MACD, and ADX settings to fine-tune the sensitivity of the signals. Volume and Higher Timeframe Filters: Enable these filters to add robustness to the signals, especially in volatile markets or when trading higher timeframes. 2.Combining with Other Analysis Fundamental Analysis: Use the indicator in conjunction with fundamental insights to validate technical signals. Risk Management: Always apply proper risk management techniques, such as setting stop-loss and take-profit levels based on the support and resistance zones provided by the indicator. 3.Backtesting Historical Analysis: Utilize the indicator's settings to backtest trading strategies on historical data, helping to identify the most effective configurations before applying them in live trading. 4.Monitoring Market Conditions Volatility Awareness: Pay attention to the ATR and ADX readings to understand market volatility and trend strength, adjusting strategies accordingly. Event Considerations: Be cautious around major economic announcements or events that may impact market behavior beyond technical indications.

shadow bar This indicator shows a new formation of retrospective candlestick bars of one period (n) of time. In this way the trader can see how the traditional bars are part of a larger formation that can show a trend or a range. The new shadow bars are drawn with a degree of transparency that makes it possible to distinguish traditional candlesticks; and where shadow candles can be seen as support or resistance to traditional candlesticks. When the traditional candlesticks are the same size as the shadow candlesticks, it can be expected that we are forming a compression or range that will result in a strong move. In addition to the shadow bars, there is a ribbon created from the new candlestick data that is formed as a line from the linear regression function and another that is the previous line smoothed by its exponential moving average. This tape allows you to see the trend more clearly and at the crossovers of the lines that form possible reversals or continuations of the trend. The indicator has the timeframe field active, which allows the indicator to be displayed in other temporalities. *The closing price of the new bars is the same as that of the traditional bars. * The tape is turned off by defa
