MaxMinRange: Reading Separate High and Low Price Extremes

Summary

MaxMinRange is described as a two-part indicator for displaying price extremes within candlesticks. One component tracks the maximum values associated with upward movement and is plotted above zero; the other tracks values associated with downward movement and is plotted below zero. The document says both components should be examined together to assess the current market situation.

The text gives only a high-level description and notes that the indicator was first implemented in MQL4 and published in 2007. It does not explain the calculation, define trading rules, or provide examples or performance evidence. As a result, it may help readers understand the indicator’s basic layout, but it is insufficient on its own to establish how to interpret its readings or use them in a trading system.

Key ideas

• The indicator separates upward and downward price extremes into two components.
• The upward component appears above zero, while the downward component appears below zero.
• The document recommends considering both components together when assessing conditions.
• It provides no formula, trading rules, or evidence of performance.
