Inside Bar Zones by AAK (V6)
📦 Smart Inside Bar Zones
Smart Inside Bar Zones is a price-action–based indicator designed to automatically detect, track, and visualize inside bar consolidation zones with full historical context.
Instead of marking single inside candles, this indicator groups consecutive inside bars into structured zones, locking the original mother candle range and extending it until price breaks out. This allows traders to clearly identify areas of compression, balance, and potential expansion.
🔍 Key Features
Automatic Inside Bar Detection
Identifies inside bars using candle bodies within the mother candle range, with an optional tick buffer.
Smart Zone Creation
Consecutive inside bars are grouped into a single zone, anchored to the original mother candle.
Unlimited Historical Storage (Data)
All previous inside bar zones are stored internally, enabling long-term analysis and backtesting.
Safe & Optimized Drawing
Zones are drawn using recyclable boxes to respect TradingView object limits while maintaining performance.
Highlight Inside Bars
Optional candle coloring for quick and clear visual confirmation.
Flexible Display Options
Show only the latest zone
Or display multiple zones with automatic recycling
📈 How Traders Use It
Identify consolidation before expansion
Spot compression zones for breakout or fakeout scenarios
Combine with SMC, order flow, support & resistance, or liquidity concepts
Use higher-timeframe zones for directional bias
Use lower-timeframe zones for entries and scalps
⚠️ Important Notes
This indicator does not predict direction — it highlights structure
Zones represent price balance, not buy or sell signals
Best used in confluence with your trading strategy and risk management
🧠 Designed For
Price action traders
SMC / market structure traders
Forex, crypto, indices, and futures
Any timeframe
