Box price

Indicator draw lines above and below the current price and cloud between them.
Download:
Similar indicator, but cloud size depends on standard deviation (StDev).

The indicator was revised and updated

Alex this is a very nice piece of work!
I set it up to identify a range setting up after a breakout trend comes to an end.
Thanks,
Richard

Alexander, could you modify this to be a “Box Range” indicator?
- The lines do not move until price passes through the upper or lower line to a new high or to a new low.
- Also, a Cloud Yes,No option Thanks

Instead of having someone modify this indicator, could you modify the Box Indicator as follows?:
- Only one box. Specify bars to count back
- Box move dynamically Thanks. Maybe call it the Dynamic Box. The Box indicator has been very useful. Thanks again for your work.

If Transparency=100, cloud is invisible. I do not understand how to move the box.

Panther. I have two questions for you. How do you want to determine the height of the box. From High to Low, Standard deviation, set by user (in pips) or another. Is it limited in time.

The box moves dynamically.
Set by user in Pips Is it limited in time? No

I am looking for 2 horizontal lines. The user sets the distance between the 2. The lines move like trailing stops. For example, when price moves up through the high line, both lines begin to move up. When price reverses off the high line, the lines do not move until price moves either up through the high line or down through the low line. Does this clarify my request? Thank you.

I hope I understand you correctly.

Hi Alexander . Imagine a dynamic trailing stop of 20 pips, and price is moving up. The DnLine is the trailing stop. The UpLine remains 20 pips above the DnLine. As price moves up the lines move up. When price reverses the lines do not move. When price moves down, and hits the DnLine, then the UpLine acts like a dynamic trailing stop. The distance between the lines stays the same.
In this example, the start calculation is 10 pips above and 10 pips below current price. The lines do not move until price contacts one of the lines. At that time, action is like a dynamic trailing stop. Movement is on a tick by tick basis (not close of candle). Thanks

This is another brilliant trading tool!
There is another trading tool called breakoutcombining elements of box price with the breakout indicator could be very useful. see breakout here: viewtopic.php?f=17&t=966
from the break out high and low line please give the user the option to draw a horizontal line X pip above and below.
thanks and great work as always!

Hello,
May I suggest, one possible way to determine the height of a box is to add the ruler tool to the rectangle/box tool. If adding the ruler to the rectangle box is possible you can then draw the height of your box to any level you choose and then be able to place it anywhere you want as a starting level.
thoughts?

Try this version. It acts like a dynamic trailing stop.

Change to BoxPrice3.lua- I wish for the lines to stay in the same relative position to each other. Once price contacts one line, both move in the same direction until price reverses. When price reverses, the lines do not move again until price touches the opposite line. At that point the lines move in the opposite direction. Thanks

This is the version with the modification you have requested.

Hi. Re: BoxPrice3_ modified.lua Would it be possible to put price labels on the lines? The label would look just like the horizontal line labels to the 5th decimal. For example, 1.46 would read 1.46000. The placement would be the same (to the right of the Y axis). Thanks
