Narrow Range (NR) IndicatorNarrow Range (NR) trading strategy is a breakout-based method that assumes that the price of security trends up or down after a brief consolidation in a narrow range. This indicator can plot:

NR(X) IndicatorNarrow Range Indicator can help determine when a possible Break Out can occur through narrowing price action.
The diamonds above the bar shows the bar to completed the Narrowest Range (high - low) of your selected time period. The default period is 7 but can be changed through the inputs. The next bar will indicate with a label weather it is a predicted Break UP (Green label) or Break Down (Red label).
The original creator of this style of indicator (thepatternsite.com) even admits the accuracy is only around 50%. To help increase those odds I combined his original work with an ATR(x) to help guesstimate the direction of breakout based on overall trend direction.
