Malama's Range Breakout
Malama's Range Breakout is a dynamic indicator designed to automatically detect periods of price consolidation (tight ranges) and generate actionable signals for breakouts or wick-based reversals.
Why It's Useful: Unlike fixed-time tools like Opening Range Breakouts (ORB), this indicator is Adaptive. It uses a volatility-adjusted threshold (ATR multiplier) to determine when a market is truly consolidating. This helps traders avoid false signals in choppy markets and focus on periods where volatility is compressing.
Key Features:
Adaptive Detection: Uses ATR over a user-defined lookback to find tight ranges automatically.
Preset Profiles: Quickly switch between optimized settings for:
Scalping: (Tight Ranges)
Intraday: (Normal Ranges)
Swing Trading: (Loose Ranges)
Options/Chop: (Extreme sideways movement)
Breakout Signals: Triggers "BUY/SELL" labels when price closes outside the box. Includes an optional Volume Filter to ignore low-momentum breakouts.
Wick Reversals: Detects "Fake-outs" where wicks probe the range boundary but fail to close outside, signaling a potential reversal back into the range.
How to Use:
Select a Profile: Choose "Normal" for standard day trading or "Tight" for scalping.
Wait for the Box: The indicator will draw an orange box when price consolidates.
Trade the Break: Wait for a confirmed close outside the box (Look for the "Malama BUY/SELL" label).
Watch for Rejection: If you see a "Wick" label, it means the breakout failed—be cautious or trade the reversal.
Settings:
Profile: Select your trading style (Scalping, Intraday, Swing).
Volume Filter: Require a volume spike to confirm breakouts (Recommended).
Wick Confirmation: Require a confirmation candle before signaling a wick reversal.
