Anyone know of an indicator that draws range boxes around price? I tried XavPriceActionTrend but it's slowed down my computer.

for ninja trader there several places you can buy what they call a squeeze indicator. it draws a box around a area when it is trading in a small range and can scan for them too. the most popular is call decision bar software . the squeeze is more for people trading brake outs , decision bar is more for range trading and is more of a complex system.

you have to be able to tell where the market is trending or range bound . you need to look at a chart 3 to 5 times higher time frame than your trading from. so if your look at a 5min. for entry . how is the trend on 15 to 30 min. there is a good super trend indicator in free down load area. you also can put a over bought or over sold indicator on higher time frame or keltner bands. so if your looking to buy at the lower part of a 5 min range, if it is at the lower part of the bands its over sold and the super trend is blue on the 15min. it will have a better chance of working out. hope it helps
