Description
Range Breakout Line displays the high and low of a user-defined daily time range using broker server time. After the range forms, the indicator can extend both levels through a selected area of the day. An optional midpoint helps you see the center of the range.
Use the levels to study price interaction with the range. Choose whether a level is considered reached when price touches it or when a candle closes beyond it. The indicator can recolor a reached level and send a notification through selected MetaTrader channels. It displays chart information only; it does not open or manage trades.
Features
- Set the range start, range end, and line extension end using server time.
- Display the range high and low, with an optional midpoint.
- Choose touch or candle-close detection for upper and lower levels.
- Recolor a level after it is reached.
- Receive popup, email, push, or sound notifications.
- Show range size in pips and points, price levels, and optional range details.
- Optionally display colored candles during the range period.
The indicator requires a chart timeframe below D1. If you use candle-close detection, a break is confirmed only after the candle closes. Notifications are informational, not trade instructions: the alert text labels an upper-level hit as BUY and a lower-level hit as SELL. Push and email notifications also require the corresponding MetaTrader settings.
