Indicator for Ranging periods

Hi,

Im after thoughts on what people think is the best indicator that tells you whether markets are ranging or trending?

Are there any custom indicators out there?

The best trend spotter by far are your eyes. Everything else is a downgrade. Even the best indicators can't detect when a trend is over. I have been playing with them for several months now and even took a stab at writing my own, but in the end concluded that my eyes were superior. If you want to experiment with indicators I would recommend Heiken Ashi Smoothed and Hull MA Angle. They are easy to find with search.
