Range Average Retest Model Indicator for MT4/MT5 (TradingFinder)

Overview

The Range Average Retest Model Indicator is a free trading tool available on the TradingFinder website for MetaTrader 4 and MetaTrader 5 platforms. It assists traders in identifying trade entry points by analyzing price ranges based on user-defined pivots.

Key functionalities include:

  • Automatic drawing of stop-loss and take-profit zones on the chart.
  • Detection of a range zone and calculation of the average range level.
  • Waiting for price to pull back and break the average range level to signal an entry.
  • Support for both bullish and bearish trade setups, adapting entry, stop-loss, and take-profit zones accordingly.
  • Extension of the range box until the price hits either stop-loss or take-profit.

Key Features & Methodology

  • Range Identification: Determines the top and bottom of a price range based on pivots specified by the user and calculates the average of this range.

  • Entry Signal: Triggered when the price pulls back and breaks the average range level.

  • Trade Setup: Displays entry points, stop-loss, and take-profit levels once triggered.

  • Risk-Reward Ratio: Default ratio is 1:2, but it is customizable.

  • Range Box Extension: The range box continues to extend until stop-loss or take-profit is hit.


Settings & Customization

1. Swing Settings

  • Pivot Calculation Period Length:
    • Longer lengths detect larger, longer-term swings, resulting in fewer but more reliable setups.
    • Shorter lengths detect smaller, shorter-term swings, leading to more frequent setups.
    • Higher pivot length corresponds to higher reliability and confidence in setups.

2. Display Mode

  • Options include:
    • Both (bullish & bearish)
    • Bullish only
    • Bearish only
  • This allows filtering trade signals by market direction.

3. Sensitivity Level

  • A multiplier applied to the ATR (Average True Range).
  • Compares the current average range with the previous average.
  • Trades are displayed only if the distance between averages exceeds the set threshold.
  • Helps avoid false signals during minimal price movements.

4. Trade Settings

  • Maximum Distance: Maximum allowable candles between entry and target point to keep the average range valid.

  • Minimum Distance: Minimum candles required to reach the average range level for a valid breakout.

  • Take-Profit and Stop-Loss Multipliers: Coefficients applied to ATR to set these levels. Default values:

    • Take-Profit: 8
    • Stop-Loss: 4 This yields a 1:2 risk-reward ratio.

5. Style Settings

  • Enable or disable display of range zones.
  • Customize colors for bullish and bearish range zones.
  • Enable or disable and customize colors for average range levels.
  • Enable or disable and customize colors for take-profit and stop-loss zones.
