คำอธิบาย
OutsideBars Pro
Trade with a clearer view of price structure.
OutsideBars Pro is a customizable price-action indicator for cTrader that helps traders identify and monitor active reference candle ranges, confirmed price breakouts and important candle high/low boundaries directly on their charts.
Instead of constantly changing reference levels, OutsideBars Pro maintains a persistent range until price confirms a breakout with a completed candle close.
Designed for traders who value clean charts, structured price analysis and intuitive on-chart controls.
Key Features
Persistent Outside Bar Zones
The indicator identifies an active reference candle and highlights its complete price range, including the upper and lower wicks.
The reference range remains active until a subsequent completed candle closes strictly above the reference candle's high or below its low.
Wick-only breakouts do not trigger a new reference range. A confirmed breakout establishes a new reference candle and updates the highlighted zone.
Customizable Bullish and Bearish Zones
- Automatic color matching with your chart's bullish and bearish candles
- Individually adjustable range colors
- Adjustable zone opacity
- Clear visual distinction between bullish and bearish reference candles
Built-In Candle Countdown Timer
Monitor the remaining time until the current candle closes.
The timer offers:
- Bid/Ask-aware positioning
- Placement above or below the price lines
- Adjustable font size, color and transparency
- Horizontal fine-tuning and vertical spacing
- Frequent updates for a responsive countdown
Custom Symbol and Timeframe Watermark
Display the current trading symbol and chart timeframe directly on your chart.
Customize the watermark's color, opacity, font size, position and spacing. Choose from multiple corner positions or center alignment.
Compact On-Chart Control Panel
Manage important features without repeatedly opening the indicator settings.
Use the draggable, collapsible mini-panel to independently toggle:
- Outside Bar Zones
- Candle Countdown Timer
- Chart Watermark
