In this lesson, I discuss the important levels to know for the Range Trader Futures Trading Strategy.
The indicators on the chart that produce these levels and values are the following:
1) The "T-Line" is a 233 period Exponential Moving Average (EMA) | Built-ins >> Indicators 2) The prior session highs and lows are plotted using the 4C Yest HLC/O indicator | Community Scripts >> Search for the script name 3) The overnight or Globex highs and lows are plotted using the High/Low Of Custom Session indicator | Community Scripts >> Search for the script name 4) Volume Point of Control (VPOC) is calculated with a Session Volume HD script | Built-ins > Volume Profile (These scripts require a paid TradingView plan)
Now for the levels ...
Identify the prior session high and low.
Identify the overnight high and low.
Identify the prior session VPOC. (Current session VPOC is noted only if the overnight range exceeds 50% ATR prior to the U.S. stock market open).
Identify if price is above or below the T-Line (233 EMA), indicating a bull/bear continuation or bull/bear neutral pattern.
Identify the 7-day Average True Range (ATR) for the instrument/product you are trading.
