StO Price Action - Daily Outside Bar

20. Jan.

Short Summary
- Outside Bar indicator with multiple range calculation algorithms
- Highlights where the current range fully engulfs the previous
- Works with Daily candles in Daily, H4, and H1 timeframes only
- Highlights the current bar when it engulfs the previous bar according to the selected method


Full Description

Overview
- Identifies bars where the current period's range fully engulfs the prior period's range
- Offers three algorithms for defining the engulfing range:
- High/Low: uses absolute high and low values
- Open/Close: considers candle direction (bull/bear) and compares opens and closes
- Open/Close II: stricter version with exclusive inequalities for engulfing
- Engulfing behavior is detected automatically and highlighted for easy recognition
- Works on multiple markets but restricted to D, H4, and H1 charts for accuracy

Controls
- Year lookback (YLB) configurable to filter older bars
- Custom background color for highlighting Outside Bars
- Simple toggle interface with minimal chart clutter

Visual Representation
- Highlights engulfing bars with configurable background color
- Color transparency adjustable for clarity

Usage
- Use to identify strong market momentum or potential reversals
- Helps spot high-probability setups based on engulfing price action

Notes
- Only compatible with Daily, H4, and H1 timeframes
- Non-repainting: once an Outside Bar is drawn, it will not adjust retroactively
- Best used as a market structure reference not a direct trade signal
