Consolidation Range Detector [Pt]█ Author's Note:
After extensively reviewing the existing consolidation detection tools in the TradingView library, I found that none fully met my expectations. Some tools were overly sensitive, producing too many invalid ranges, while others lacked the necessary sensitivity. Consequently, I decided to develop my own tool. I hope that you, fellow traders, find it valuable and enjoy using it.
█ Description:
The Consolidation Range Detector is a sophisticated TradingView tool designed to identify and visualize periods of price consolidation on any financial chart. This indicator employs advanced algorithms to detect ranges where price movements are confined, helping traders spot potential breakout zones and make informed trading decisions.
█ Key Features:
► Customizable Detection Sensitivity: Adjust the sensitivity of the detection algorithm to suit your trading strategy, ensuring a precise fit within the consolidation range.
► Dynamic Coloring: Choose between random or fixed colors for the consolidation ranges, with options to match different background color schemes (Dark, Light, Neutral).
► Visual Clarity: Highlight detected consolidation ranges directly on the chart with customizable color schemes to enhance visibility and provide clear visual cues.
► ATR-Based Validation: Ensures detected consolidation ranges are significant and reliable by using the Average True Range (ATR) for validation.
█ User-Defined Inputs:
► Minimum Detection Bars: Set the minimum number of bars required to detect a consolidation range.
► Max Range Multiplier: Define the maximum range for detection as a multiple of the ATR.
► Detection Sensitivity: Adjust the sensitivity of the detection algorithm. Higher values mean a tighter fit within the consolidation range.
► Color Options: Choose the color for the consolidation range boxes and decide whether to use random colors.
► Color Scheme (Background): Select a color scheme for the chart background (Dark, Light, Neutral).
█ How It Works:
► Range Detection: The indicator scans the chart for potential consolidation ranges based on user-defined parameters. It calculates the average price and ATR to determine the significance of the range.
► Validation: Each detected range is validated based on criteria such as ATR threshold, range validity, average price comparison, and the number of touches at the range boundaries.
► Visualization: Validated ranges are highlighted on the chart with colored boxes, providing a clear visual cue of potential consolidation zones.
█ Usage Examples:
► Example 1:
The image below showcases the Consolidation Range Detector in action on a chart of S&P 500 E-mini Futures. The indicator highlights several consolidation ranges with different colors, demonstrating its ability to adapt to varying market conditions and visually emphasize key areas of price consolidation. The annotations for breakouts and price reactions are manually marked to illustrate the practical application of the tool in identifying potential trading opportunities based on these key areas.
█ Practical Applications:
► Identify Breakout Zones: Use the detected consolidation ranges to identify potential breakout zones, helping to anticipate significant price movements.
► Identify Key Price Levels: The tool helps in pinpointing key price levels where there is a high probability of significant price reactions, providing crucial insights for trading strategies.
► Enhance Technical Analysis: Integrate the Consolidation Range Detector into your existing technical analysis toolkit to improve the accuracy of your trading decisions.
█ Conclusion:
The Consolidation Range Detector is a powerful tool for traders looking to identify periods of price consolidation and potential breakout zones. With its customizable settings and advanced detection algorithms, it provides a reliable and visual method to enhance your trading strategy. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced trader, this indicator can add significant value to your technical analysis.
█ Cautionary Note:
While the Consolidation Range Detector is a powerful tool, it's important to combine it with other indicators and analysis methods for comprehensive trading decisions. Always consider market context and external factors when interpreting detected consolidation ranges.

Consolidation Score ScreenerIn trading, a consolidation range is like a timeout after a big move in the price of a stock or symbol.
It's when the market takes a breather, neither pushing the price up nor down too hard.
Visually, it looks like the price moving sideways on a chart , with highs and lows staying within a certain range.
so this indicator is created to help myself and you decide if its a ranging market and what's the score of that consolidation range
The score ranges between 0 and 10 , where 10 is the max consolidation score , meaning this stock or the symbol is at its highest peak of consolidation .
What would you see using this indicator ?
Symbols circles , inside these circles it will print the consolidation score ..
in the middle of the indicator it will show the range of all the 20 symbols scores .
so it will give you like overall ranging value for your 20 symbols

TrendCylinder (Expo)█ Overview
The TrendCylinder is a dynamic trading indicator designed to capture trends and volatility in an asset's price. It provides a visualization of the current trend direction and upper and lower bands that adapt to volatility changes. By using this indicator, traders can identify potential breakouts or support and resistance levels. While also gauging the volatility to generate trading ranges. The indicator is a comprehensive tool for traders navigating various market conditions by providing a sophisticated blend of trend-following and volatility-based metrics.
█ How It Works
Trend Line: The trend line is constructed using the closing prices with the influence of volatility metrics. The trend line reacts to sudden price changes based on the trend factor and step settings.
Upper & Lower Bands: These bands are not static; they are dynamically adjusted with the calculated standard deviation and Average True Range (ATR) metrics to offer a more flexible, real-world representation of potential price movements, offering an idea of the market's likely trading range.
█ How to Use
Identifying Trends
The trend line can be used to identify the current market trend. If the price is above the trend line, it indicates a bullish trend. Conversely, if the price is below the trend line, it indicates a bearish trend.
Dynamic Support and Resistance
The upper and lower bands (including the trend line) dynamically change with market volatility, acting as moving targets of support and resistance. This helps set up stop-loss or take-profit levels with a higher degree of accuracy.
Breakout vs. Reversion Strategies
Price movements beyond the bands could signify strong trends, making it ideal for breakout strategies.
Fakeouts
If the price touches one of the bands and reverses direction, it could be a fakeout. Traders may choose to trade against the breakout in such scenarios.
█ Settings
Volatility Period: Defines the look-back period for calculating volatility. Higher values adapt the bands more slowly, whereas lower values adapt them more quickly.
Trend Factor: Adjusts the sensitivity of the trend line. Higher values produce a smoother line, while lower values make it more reactive to price changes.
Trend Step: Controls the pace at which the trend line adjusts to sudden price movements. Higher values lead to a slower adjustment and a smoother line, while lower values result in quicker adjustments.

Consolidation Finder Expo [serkany88]It's relatively easy to create a repainting system where you can detect consolidation but it can be pretty hard to detect breakouts while the consolidation is happening live. This experimental approach came to my mind after brainstorming a bit.
What it does
This indicator DOES NOT REPAINT and try to show consolidation zones by coloring the bars or background to a selected color(default white)
How it works
In this approach we use weighted standard deviation of Vidya (Variable Index Dynamic Average created by Tushar Chande). The reason we use vidya is it's length is actually being adapted to volatility and lookback is dynamically adjusted. After getting vidya of base we also create same length vidya of high's and low's and get weighted standard deviation of those. After this we add and subtract those with base vidya and and get their average with our multiplier weight starting from the first bar. If our current value is higher than the average it means we are not in consolidation, else we are thus the bar and background will be painted.
How to use
Consolidation Finder can be used with your existing bot strategy as an additional filter or can be used with your manual trading system as an additional filter or detect breakouts. But be aware that you might need to tinker with length and multipliers in the settings depending on your timeframe to get best results possible before using it reliably. You can also enable the plots of vidya's from the style tab which is disabled by default to see how the deviations actually move if you are interested in it.
Consolidation Range Tracker[Trendoscope]🎲 Introducing Consolidation Range Tracker: Visualising Price Consolidation after Impulsive Moves
ConsolidationRangeTracker is an innovative indicator designed to assist traders in identifying and tracking price consolidation zones following impulsive market moves. This indicator is built on Auto Motive Wave indicator and Interactive Motive Wave indicator. This is also an attempt to plot Wyckoff Distribution pattern. But, instead of implying the price movement after consolidation, we are just leaving it to the interpretation of the users.
🎲 Process
Find impulse wave using the methods defined in Auto Motive Wave indicator and Interactive Motive Wave indicator
Define the range of consolidation based on predefined ratio (available as input settings)
Track the price movement within range along with number of bars and cumulative volume.
When price breaks out of the range, check if price ranged long enough to consider it as consolidation.
Retain the drawings and visualisation if the consolidation is confirmed before the breakout. Or else, remove them from the chart to keep it clean.
Overall output can be visualised as
Note : Patterns will not be there on the chart every time. It is normal for indicator not to show any drawings or patterns on the chart.
🎲 Stages of the Indicator
🎯 When an Impulse is formed
When an impulse wave is detected, wave is drawn on the chart along with details such as number of bars and volume spawning the impulse wave and the calculated range based on the input value. An alert of new impulse is also triggered if configured for alerts.
🎯 When an Impulse is updated
When price extends further without consolidating, the impulse wave is also updated to consider the latest values. This repaint is expected and as designed. We will also trigger an alert related to update of an impulse wave.
🎯 Update of range as and when it happens
Range is not bound and it keeps moving based on the highest and lowest price. Value of range is constant and it is calculated based on certain ratio of impulse as configured in settings. But, this range can move up and down based on which direction the price moves.
For example, this is the initial range when the impulse wave is formed.
But, after certain bars, we can see that the range shift slightly up because, price has more upward movement than downward.
No alerts are triggered during this phase.
🎯 Confirmed consolidation
Consolidation range is confirmed after price range through certain bars with respect to number of bars involved in the impulse wave. The default setting of 1 for range bar ratio means that range is confirmed when price ranges for same number of bars as that of impulse.
An alert is triggered when consolidation range is confirmed.
🎯 Breakout
Breakout happen if the price exceeds the range bracket. Breakout may happen either before or after confirmation of consolidation. In either case, an alert is triggered.
Patterns are removed from the chart if the consolidation is not confirmed. In other words, the price did not stay in range for long time.
🎲 Settings
Simple settings to define the zigzag base and few pattern related configuration.
🎲 Alerts
Alerts are configured using alert function and are triggered in following scenarios.
A new impulse created
An impulse wave is updated
Consolidation range confirmed
Breakout with/without confirmed consolidation.
🎲 Use Cases
Indicator can be used for identifying few types of patterns on the chart. But, they may involve user's discretion. Major patterns that can be identified are:
🎯 Flag Formation Consolidation after an impulse can be termed as flag and is a sign of trend continuation after consolidation.
🎯 Wyckoff Distribution Long consolidation with high volume after an impulse can be a sign of wyckoff distribution formation. This pattern is trend reversal pattern.
Liquidity Sentiment Profile [LuxAlgo]The Liquidity Sentiment Profile is an advanced charting tool that measures by combining PRICE and VOLUME data over specified anchored periods and highlights within a sequence of profiles the distribution of the liquidity and the market sentiment at specific price levels.
The Liquidity Sentiment Profile allows traders to reveal significant price levels, dominant market sentiment, support and resistance levels, supply and demand zones, liquidity availability levels, liquidity gaps, consolidation zones, and more based on price and volume data.
Liquidity refers to the availability of orders at specific price levels in the market, allowing transactions to occur smoothly.
🔶 USAGE
A Liquidity Sentiment Profile is a combination of a liquidity and a sentiment profile, where the right part of the profile displays the distribution of the traded activity at different price levels and the left part displays the market sentiment at those price levels.
The Liquidity Sentiment Profiles are visualized with different colors, where each color has a different meaning.
The Liquidity Sentiment Profiles aim to present Value Areas based on the significance of price levels, thus allowing users to identify value areas that can be formed more than once within the range of a single profile.
Level of Significance Line - displays the changes in the price levels with the highest traded activity (developing POC)
🔶 SETTINGS
The script takes into account user-defined parameters and plots the profiles, where detailed usage for each user-defined input parameter in indicator settings is provided with the related input's tooltip.

Consolidation BoxThis script aims to help identify sideways markets. Once price leaves the Box the market will usually start a trending phase. Users can set a percent range to detect markets moving sideways within the range.
Accumulation_&_Distribution_Aka_ConsolidationZone - BasicDear Traders,
It so happens to the traders that once in their lifetime journey they be sure to here the below statement.
1. I got struck in the consolidation zone
2. Signals from technical indicators failed because prices were consolidating.
3. Its pretty tuff to detect consolidation zone. (programmatically)
I don't know about other but I have heard this throughout my trading journey. Hence I started to debug the above 3 statements and came up with this indicator which detects consolidation zones in the chart.
there are 3 inputs settings
1. ATR multiplier = can be used to filter the consolidation box height. higher the value bigger the box (vertical view) and smaller the value smaller the box height.
2. Show Last No of Zones = set the No of previous zones you would like to see.
3. Consolidation Size = If set to small. all kind of sizes will be plotted ( majorly works for day trading) if set to wide, script looks for major consolidation zones (majorly works for higher timeframes). if set to medium, script looks medium size to wide size zones majorly for timeframe with more than 30 min.
What's this indicator is taking into account?
1. Moving Averages
2. Linear Regression curves
3. ATR
4. BB
5. BBW
6. Couple of Math calculation to support the zone identification.
Note: Plz do suggest for any kind of improvements or feedbacks.
Regards
Support and Resistance V1 This script is based on Range Support and Resistance .
It works by taking the range of the day,week and month calculating them and plotting 3 layers of Support and Resistance , as soon as it gets non directional /range bound , bar color turns GRAY if its in Bullish Trend and Pink if its in Bearish Trend .. As soon as bar turns Aqua it defines BULLISH Trend and RED bar color defines Bearish Trend . This way you can easily visualize the areas of support and resistance .

Consolidation vs Trending
ADX is used to quantify trend strength. ADX calculations are based on a moving average of price range expansion over a given period of time. The default setting is 14 bars, although other time periods can be used. ADX can be used on any trading vehicle such as stocks, mutual funds, exchange-traded funds and futures.
ADX is plotted as a single line with values ranging from a low of zero to a high of 100. ADX is non-directional; it registers trend strength whether price is trending up or down. The indicator is usually plotted in the same window as the two directional movement indicator (DMI) lines, from which ADX is derived.
When the +DMI is above the -DMI, prices are moving up, and ADX measures the strength of the uptrend. When the -DMI is above the +DMI, prices are moving down, and ADX measures the strength of the downtrend.
ADX values help traders identify the strongest and most profitable trends to trade. The values are also important for distinguishing between trending and non-trending conditions. Many traders will use ADX readings above 25 to suggest that the trend is strong enough for trend-trading strategies. Conversely, when ADX is below 25, many will avoid trend-trading strategies.
ADX Value Trend Strength
0-25 Absent or Weak Trend
25-50 Strong Trend
50-75 Very Strong Trend
75-100 Extremely Strong Trend
