jeff,
look at my pic + you see the settings - its 3 , 3 here.
its the ticks offset from the last hour-Close.
it creates the lines + the zone.

Hey Max,

Do you know if there is a way to change the TRO hourly buy zone indicator to be a "half
hourly" buy zone indicator? I find that trades frequently set up on the half hour so I thought if I could get the indicator to read on the half hour it might be a good experiment.

Also, I'm finding that the indicator does not seem to function well on range bar charts. Is this me or the indicator?

Thanks, Jeff

Max -
Thanks glad you like it. Here's an idea

Jeff that buyzone indicator is only for time based bars - no range, tick, point-o, etc.

I was just showing that the tape hides the edge of a channel when it is rising or falling so when the tape clears the edge of a large channel (donchian50 in the pict) it is easy to see and you can reverse your trade using the channel for a stop.

Donchian channel is the blue step lines in the pict.
