{quote} I'm testing them out - they look nicer, not that that means anything. The 4pip no-gap is almost the same as the 3pip with gap, in terms of number of bars per unit of time. The main reason though is that the indicator version seems to be more stable than the expert version. If I had an indicator version of with-gap, I'd probably just be using that instead.
If you did not yet consume the trial period, you may temporarily use this non-gap indi:

{quote} Thank you - I can try to provide a bit more detail, but its not so much a "strategy" other than just attempting to read the market that revolves around my theoretical construct of how markets operate/move. In a nutshell, I see the market as an auction, an ongoing process of buyers and sellers ("traders") determining "value". There are two "states of being", ranging and trending. During periods we call "ranges", traders have arrived at a "value" they somewhat agree upon. Ranges can be seen on any time frame/bar interval and can be as big...

yes, i agree on all your analysis. I would like to see some examples with pictures regarding the way in which you pick these pivot points, if you can. Thanks.

I assume this is from oVo - the trial period is very short for live accounts. I suppose I might as well just buy it - oVo does make the best products I've seen for non-time based charting.

Both the indicator and the expert in the first post work. I think people get confused about which is which, where to put in the MT4 folder, etc...

Caught a couple of small moves on divergences, which tend to work really well on slow days.

Nice to see you are using POC in your trade decision. I never did so but I many times wanted
In fact, my opinion is that the range bars are not the ideal chart for the footprint, but I thought about footprints calculated on tick bars, which in fact should show the VPOC. What indicator are you using for the profile?
