Range Finder [UAlgo]

🔶 Description:

The "Range Finder " indicator aims at identifying and visualizing price ranges within a specified number of candles. By utilizing the Average True Range (ATR) indicator and Simple Moving Average (SMA), it detects potential breakout conditions and tracks consecutive candles that remain within the breakout range. This indicator offers flexibility by allowing users to customize settings such as range length, method for determining range breaks (based on either candle close or wick), and visualization options for displaying range breaks on the chart.

🔶 Key Features

Identifying Ranges: The Range Finder automatically adapts to the market by continuously evaluating the Average True Range (ATR) and its Simple Moving Average (SMA). This helps in dynamically adjusting the range based on market volatility.


Range Length: Users can specify the number of candles to be used for constructing the range via the "Range Length" input setting. This allows for customization based on trading strategies and preferences.

Range Break Method: The indicator offers the flexibility to choose between two methods for identifying range breaks. Users can select between "Close" or "Wick" based on their preference for using the closing price or the highs and lows (including wicks) of candles for defining the breakout.


Show Range Breaks: This option enables visual representation of range breaks on the chart. When activated, labels with the letter "B" will appear at the breakout point, colored according to the breakout direction (upward breakouts in the chosen up range color and downward breakouts in the chosen down range color).

Range Color Customization: The indicator provides the ability to personalize the visual appearance of the range by selecting preferred colors for ranges indicating potential upward and downward breakouts.
