ORB Breakout & Retest

ORB Breakout & Breakdown Indicator - Complete Opening Range Strategy
Description:
The ORB (Opening Range Breakout) Breakout & Retest Indicator is a simple tool designed to identify opening range breakouts and breakdowns with retest confirmation. This indicator works on ANY timeframe while automatically analyzing 1-minute price action to detect precise entry signals.
What makes this indicator unique:
- ✅ Multi-Timeframe ORB Analysis - Simultaneously tracks 5-min, 15-min, and 30-min opening ranges
- ✅ Smart Retest Logic - Filters false breakouts by requiring price to retest and confirm the level
- ✅ Works on Any Chart Timeframe - View on 5-min, 15-min, 1-hour, or daily charts while getting 1-minute precision
- ✅ Both Long & Short Signals - Detects bullish breakouts AND bearish breakdowns
- ✅ Customizable Alerts - Get notified when confirmed setups occur
- ✅ Clean Visual Display - Compact table showing all ORB levels and signal status
How it Works:
Opening Range Detection:
- 5-Min ORB: Captures high/low from 9:30-9:35 AM
- 15-Min ORB: Captures high/low from 9:30-9:45 AM
- 30-Min ORB: Captures high/low from 9:30-10:00 AM
Breakout Confirmation (3-Step Process):
1. Initial Break - Price closes above ORB High (or below ORB Low for shorts)
2. Retest - Price pulls back to retest the broken level
3. Confirmation - Price breaks through again, confirming the trend
This retest requirement dramatically reduces false signals and helps you enter trades with better risk/reward.
Perfect For:
- Day traders looking for opening range strategies
- Scalpers who need precise entry signals
- Swing traders identifying strong intraday momentum
- Anyone trading stocks, futures, forex, or crypto during market hours

Table Legend:
Timeframe Row: Shows the three ORB periods being tracked
ORB High Row: (Optional) The highest price during each opening range period
ORB Low Row: (Optional) The lowest price during each opening range period
Breakout+Retest Row:
- 🟢 YES = Bullish setup confirmed (price broke high, retested, and confirmed)
- 🔴 NO = No confirmed bullish setup yet
- ⚪ N/A = Opening range not yet established

- ⚪ N/A = Opening range not yet established
How to Use:
1. Add to Chart - Works best on stocks, futures, and indices with regular market hours (9:30 AM EST open)
2. Choose Your Timeframe - View on any timeframe; indicator automatically analyzes 1-minute data
3. Monitor the Table - Watch for "YES" signals in Breakout or Breakdown rows
4. Set Alerts - Enable alerts for your preferred ORB timeframes
5. Plan Your Trade - Use ORB levels as entry points and initial stop-loss levels
Tips:
- Combine multiple timeframe confirmations for higher probability setups
- Use ORB High/Low levels as natural support/resistance zones
- The 5-min ORB gives faster signals; 30-min ORB gives stronger trends
- Best results typically occur in the first 1-2 hours after market open
- Works on all markets but optimized for regular trading hours (9:30 AM EST)

Big update: rebuilt signal engine, clearer chart, and Pine Script v6.What's new
- FAILED status: if price closes back inside the range after a breakout or breakdown, that side is marked FAILED. It can set up again later in the day.
- ORB Failure Buffer (default 10% of the range): small dips back inside the range during a retest no longer count as a failure.
- Re-alert option: get alerted again when a side that failed completes a new breakout → retest → confirm sequence.
- Show Status Table toggle: hide the table if you only want lines and alerts.
- Range Fill setting: Widest Only (default), All, or Off. The default stops the three overlapping fills from muddying the chart.
Improvements
- More reliable signals: only completed 1-minute candles count, so alerts no longer fire on a candle that later closes back inside the range.
- Signals stop at the 4:00 PM ET close. After-hours moves are ignored.
- The daily reset now works on every intraday timeframe, including extended-hours and futures charts.
- The Breakdown row uses its own red colors, so a confirmed breakdown no longer shows green.
- Price labels show the ORB length (e.g. "5m H 228.86"). When levels match, they merge into one label (e.g. "5/15/30m H").
- Breakout/breakdown markers are on by default. There's one per bar per direction, tagged with the ORB lengths that confirmed (e.g. "5/15").
- Lines and labels update smoothly instead of being redrawn on every tick.
Good to know
- Works on 1-minute and higher charts. Seconds and tick charts show an error.
- Alerts fire when the confirming 1-minute candle closes, so they may arrive up to a minute later than before.
- On extended-hours charts, ORB levels clear at midnight ET and come back after the 9:30 open.
- After updating, reset the indicator's settings to defaults (Settings → Defaults → Reset settings), since several inputs were added or changed.
