Metatrader, I assume, do you have an Indicator? Go to Youtube and search there, look for 9NiX6, a few good videos explaining the procedure, good luck

a very simple question, which script (or EA?) are you using for?, because mine allowed me set al 50 easily . . . Ah! and the grafic looks great, I didīn see that before (i mean . . . in 50), coz I trade in 7 and 15.

I am using ninjatrader when I'm trying to investigate the price action via rangebar. It kinda filters out the pa noise in some ways and you could see where the price is.
Rangebars are definitely helpful.

Does anybody have a preferred range for their range bars for a particular instrument ?
Can you even use the same setting for all currencies regardless of how volatile they are ?

what is a script ?
a CRB script is a program that carries data from m1 to m2 offline window in order to allow you set x number or "range" in your chart bars, usually they are commercial ones.

Attached is a 15 pip size range bar chart for Gbp/Usd.

Range bars eliminate a lot of noise and are far better than renko bars in my opinion.

I am curious if anyone is using range bars to trade with ?

What strategy or indicators do you use ?

itīs normal sometimes, usually represents a big and fast move of the prize in the market (i,e, anuncement, gap, etc) U can avoid it (or "allow" RB or Renko script read that move again) closing all windows, restart MT4 and load all again.

Do you use bouth ? what is the difference between them ? What period do you use ? Reading your other posts later post it seeems that you go for few pips, but earlier posts like 6 mounts ago it seems you trade longer timeframes daily and 4h ?

Best regards

Yes, 6 month ago i had less "time" to trade so it was easier to check the charts at X intervals of time (like 4 hours OR once a day)

now i can sit and trade an active session easily and with time out of the picture any range/volume/tick based candles are FAAaAAaARR superios than time based charts, plain and simple

with forex i like to set the range for 5 or 6 times the spread (in average) wich can give you a decent bar printing/time to decide and enter.. Set it higher if you like to trade the news.. with what im testing/trading now (SP500 and crude oil) with the index still work and with WTI a 10 points works just fine

i use a direction filter like an MA, 2 or 3 recent support/resistance point and a very specific pattern for an entry wich gives you a high unbalance point and a very high TP hit rate (i usually go for 1:1 maybe 2).. It compound VERY fast !!

Iin general Its better to leave some pips on the table than losing them in hopes to "win" more, and it shows on the long run (at least for me)..


NOW with renko..

im "testing" renko WITH wicks and MY entry (pattern) shows that its even better and more accurate (for the moment) and im moving away from the currency markets to index and comodities because i actually LIKE them more than forex, and my system/style its even better tuned to them !!

the range/renko generator i use its a commercial version so i dont think i can post the vendor over here, you still can ask me in PM

I read your post and am little confused it seemed tome you did not like fast tp like 1 or 2 times risk ? Maybe you do try to go for 1 or 2 times risk but you adopt and if price action dictate you get out earlier, is that how i shall understand it ? Yes i think i know what pattern you talk about, but how will it look like in timebars ? If something is to personel to answear here you can always pm me. Thank You


Best regards

NO.. my entry its from an "unbalance" in price that creates an impulse in 1 direction.. how long? i have no idea BUT its at least 1:1 (almost always).. maybe more but i go for the sure thing always (unless the price skyrocket to a higher return value)

thats why my target profit its around 1 to 2 times my original trade value =)

in time bars the pattern looks different, it doesnt show too often BUT still there.. its just that you need to be more "alert" and dont let it pass thats all
