Open Range BreakoutOpen Range Breakout (ORB)
The Open Range Breakout (ORB) is a classic intraday strategy used across stocks, indices, FX and futures. It focuses on how price behaves during the first minutes of a major session, when liquidity and volatility are highest.
This indicator fully automates the ORB process with session detection, box drawing, breakout & retest logic, and final Buy/Sell signals.
Multi-Session Support
Choose between the three most important global opens:
Asia (Tokyo) – JPY pairs, Asian indices, gold, crypto
London – FX majors, European indices, strong volatility
New York – US indices, USD pairs, gold, oil, highest volume
The Opening Range is calculated only during the selected session.
ORB Range (5 / 15 / 30 min)
The indicator builds the ORB High/Low from the first X minutes of the session, draws the box, and waits for price action once the range is complete.
How It Works
ORB Window → High/Low of the opening minutes are recorded.
Breakout → Price closes above/below the ORB → “BREAKOUT” label.
Retest → Price returns to the ORB box → “RETEST” label.
Confirmation Levels Freeze → Upper/lower structure set.
Final Signal
Close above frozen upper level → BUY
Close below frozen lower level → SELL
This filters out false breakouts and provides structured continuation signals.
