I think that what you call a ranging market is the hardest and easiest to find at the same time. Easiest because the forex market is always (99.99% of time, cases like GBPUSD in 1992 are very rare) changing in predictable range even if it is trending. Hardest because finding a flat market is hard to predict (the nature of the market is not to have balance but to have one side prevail, and it would be flat if the short and long volumes are in balance)

Maybe a good thread for that would be this one for start : https://www.mql5.com/en/forum/173636

Or maybe something like this one : https://www.mql5.com/en/forum/general

Hi All. I've started looking into forex a few weeks back and am still studying the use of indicators. So I found myself in this thread, looking for filters to identify ranging and trending markets. Would there be any gd filter indicators here that would be able to detect or identify ranging markets as shown in the figure below? So far I found RCBi indicator to be somewhat useful in doing that (by looking at the distance from the top red line to the bottom yellow line). Would be great if this indicator can allow me to have my own inputs rather than just the countbars. Anyways I am still studying it. Any recommendation of other filters and or advice are very much welcome.

Hi,

Im also investigating the ranging market parts as it's probably the most difficult thing that impedes the way to a profitable system. One definite way to filter ranging markets is to set Standard Deviation to very low levels relevant to the timeframe and pair your trading, such that it does a very subtle filter function without impeding profitable trade signals too. Signal Noise filters are possible too, but personally i find them abit too noisy still and not trading friendly.

Another standard way to filter out ranging markets will be the standard ADX. The adaptive ADX versions are worth trying out, although there are no holy grails but still ADX is still good enough

Yours sincerely,

Wintersky

hi mrtools,

Please put arrow on chart. Also, please provide me the iCustom string and the "if" command to buy/sell.

Thanks much.

Hi Tamarofx,

Added the arrows, the iCustom could go something like

double stlmNow = iCustom(NULL,0,"STLM_hist + arrows",2,currentBar);

double stlmPre = iCustom(NULL,0,"STLM_hist + arrows",2,currentBar+1);

if (stlmNow>stlmPre) //buy

if (stlmNow<stlmPre) //sell
