Open Range Breakout Indicator ORB

Hello everyone,
Here is the ORB indicator (Open Range Breakout) used in the famous strategy of Toby Crabel:
http://www.amazon.fr/Trading-Short-Patterns-Opening-Breakout/dp/0934380171

An explanation video:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CAHG_KAhhJw

Some other details here:

https://www.wpi.edu/Pubs/E-project/Available/E-project-042910-142422/unrestricted/Veselin_Iliev_IQP.pdf

This indicator shows the highest and lowest in the first hour of trading that is very important. Default 9:00AM / 10.00AM. (European time zone)
This defines a Support and Resistance which we monitor breakage / Breakout in this strategy.

Bearings of 50% of the obtained range are also plotted.

It is of course quite possible, if desired, to change the indicator parameter for other time range

Bons trades 🙂

Most of the days the ORH (Opening Range High) & ORL (Opening Range Low) are plotted correctly. However, I noted the ORH for 30-Dec-2024 was plotted incorrectly. It was using the 9.28am High as the ORH for 30-Dec-2024. May I know why? And how can I correct it? Thank you in advance.

This website is dedicated to prorealtime programming, you'll not find any MT4 files around here.

Hi zilliq! I have imported the indicator into Prorealtime but it doesn't overlay the price chart , it has a seperated like the other indicators eg MACD, am i doing something wrong?

Hi,

Nice indicator.

How do you display just the one set of lines for a given day, rather than all previous lines please?

Regards.

bonjour,

Après import, "

Open Range Breakout Indicator ORB" n'apparaît dans la liste des Proscreener. Pourquoi ?

Bonjour, parce qu'il s'agit d'un indicateur et non d'un screener :)

Hey zilliq,

thank you for the code. But if I try to import it, it opens as an extra window, right below the normal chart.

how can I get it in the chart?

 

Cheers
