Range Trading with Higher-Timeframe or Session-Based Range Detection

Summary

The visible script is a configurable range-trading strategy for charting software. It offers two range-detection modes: higher-timeframe ranges, selected automatically from a mapping of chart periods or set manually, and session-based ranges. The visible settings also include a risk-to-reward ratio, optional confirmation lines, stop-loss-only exits, reversing after a stop, and an optional maximum bar distance. The script sets one-entry pyramiding and allocates a fixed percentage of equity by default.

The supplied document cuts off during the timezone options and does not show the range construction, entry and exit rules, or any performance report. As a result, the strategy’s actual signals and the meaning of several controls cannot be verified from this excerpt. It offers implementation details and adjustable risk controls, but no evidence that the approach is profitable or robust across instruments, sessions, or timeframes.

Key ideas

• The script supports range detection from either higher timeframes or trading sessions.
• Its automatic higher-timeframe selection maps chart intervals to larger intervals.
• Visible controls include a risk-to-reward setting and options for stop-only exits and stop-triggered reversal.
• The excerpt ends before showing how ranges generate trades or how positions are managed in practice.
• No backtest results or evidence of performance are included in the visible text.
