This is an indicator that helps price action traders in determining when the market is in tight trading range.
Barbwire rules
The conditions for tight trading range are very simple. There has to be at least one doji (body is less than half size of the bars range from high to low) bar in the last three bars and there has to be lots of overlap between those bars. To quantify overlap indicator looks for bars that pull back 50% or more of the previous bars range and current bars that have 50% level touching the previous bar.
