  Hi All,

  I have been looking for sometime on here for an indicator that will identify a range bound market (consolidation) see screenshot.

  Ideally marked with a rectangle on the 1H chart, min 5 candles

  Does anyone here know of one that is pre-written?, I have tried to write my own but can’t work out the logic properly to code it 🙁

  Any help is appreciated, Thank you in advance

  Some ways to identify ranging prices can be:

  • when Bollnger Bands are within a Keltner Channel
  • when Bollinger Bands narrow
  • when the price range does not exceed X pips in the last N periods
  • when two or more MAs narrow

  There are obviously more methods, you need to read them, then decide which one(s) best fit you.
