A few traders have asked if the CongestionBox could be altered to trigger with a breakout of one candle. I did some work and here is a solution that I believe works well with one candle breakout. One candle means there may be some false breakouts depending on your candle size....
As always, trade well....

As with other recent indies, this only calculates and displays what is on the display. If you scroll left, hit f5 to repopulate

After suggestions from a few traders, I added some filtering to remove some of the 'counter trend' boxes. Included in this zip is an additional CongestionBox indie called CongestionBoxFilter. This one uses an EMA and HMA. A Bullish breakout candle will paint if the breakout candle is above both and slope of the HMA is up. The breakout candle can be painted for highlight and or an arrow below bull candle or above bear candle.
Have fun...

R2 (2/11/2021): I don't use Bloodhound or other automated tools, but one user found that calculations limited to what is on screen causes a problem with Bloodhound... I found the issue and it is an easy fix. In the zip are two indicators. CongestionBoxOne is the original that only calculates what is on the screen and CongestionBoxOneFull calculates the entire history and should work with Bloodhound. I will add a new version of all of the indicators that I have posted that have the calculation limiter in a similar manner.
