Description

VIX Pro: The Definitive Volatility Analysis Tool


This proprietary VIX indicator, powered by Average True Range (ATR), delivers precise and clean analysis of market volatility, fully optimized for cTrader 5.10.x+. It combines scaled VIX movement with volume analysis to confirm major shifts and potential breakouts.


Key Features & Code Quality

* Zero Bugs/Warnings: Fully refactored to the latest cTrader API standards, eliminating all legacy errors and warnings for maximum stability and top performance.

* ATR-Based VIX: Provides a highly responsive measure of volatility, normalized to spot extreme market conditions.

* Dual Confirmation: Uses volatility (VIX line) combined with Tick Volume data to validate high-probability breakout alerts.


Customize Your Setup for Maximum Insight

Easily fine-tune the indicator to match your trading strategy by setting the desired values for "Low VIX Level" and "High VIX Level" thresholds. Additionally, adjust the "VIX Scale Factor" to precisely control the height and visualization of the VIX line in the lower panel.


How to Read Breakout & Consolidation Signals

- Breakout Alert (High Volatility): When the VIX line breaks strongly above the High VIX Level AND is accompanied by high volume (indicated by the High Volume histogram), this confirms extreme fear/greed and signals a high-probability market breakout.

- Consolidation Signal (Low Volatility): When the VIX line falls below the 'Low VIX Level', it often indicates a period of market calm, tight consolidation, or potential mean-reversion — ideal for preparing your next move or scaling back risk.

- Volume Insights: The indicator plots High Volume (Green) and Low Volume (Red) histograms in the background, allowing you to instantly gauge the liquidity and conviction behind current price action.

Most of the value comes from the setup gets an extra sanity check. Ugly trades need to be in the sample too.

ngl, breaks are easier to judge and that is enough to keep testing it. It is not the whole trading plan.

reads better when the chart already supports the idea. Spread and slippage need a line in the notes.
