It will clearly mark the bars which favor the prevailing Trend and those bars which just don't have the momentum anymore. TrapZone moves with the market trend and will often provide it support. As the TrapZone changes direction & its color, traders can change their trade bias.
Features:
- Identify strong & weak price action - By leveraging a regression calculation of price movement on Y axis against the x axis, we identify the strength of current bars. Increasing relative strength of bars indicate Bullish (Green Bars) & Bearish (Red Bars) price movement, respectively. As the relative strength starts to decrease in Bullish or Bearish price action, the indicator immediately changes the color of these bars to Gray (by default). We call these TrapBars.
- Current price trend - By using the highs and lows of price in multiple periods, we are calculating the trend of the price. The Bullish trend is shown by the Green zone and Bearish trend is shown by the Red zone. These zones are the shaded areas which are plotted on the chart. If the price is in these Zones, Longs or Short trades are not advised as that price action is weak. We call these TrapZones.
- Strength of the Momentum - the thickness of the TrapZone shows the strength of the current Bullish or Bearish trend. That means the wider the shaded area grows the stronger is the current market momentum. A Flat TrapZone indicates sideways price action.
Knowing when NOT to Trade is as important as when to Trade. While this indicator is designed to avoid taking bad trades such as FOMO, Catching a Falling Knife or Fighting The Trend, it successfully reveals the good trade setups!
How these features of this indicator helps Traders avoids common mistakes:
- FOMO or Fear of Missing Out - If a Trader Sees TrapBars in a Bullish or Bearish Trend, they will avoid entry as the price action is weak at that time. This will avoid late entries.
- Catching a Falling Knife (a.k.a. Picking a Bottom) - When Red TrapZone is being plotted, Traders can avoid taking Long Entries hoping for a price reversal.
- Fighting The Trend (a.k.a Picking a Top) - When Green TrapZone is being plotted, Traders can avoid taking Short entries hoping for a price reversal.
TrapZone Pro does all this in a single panel of the chart irrespective of the market or timeframe.
