High/Low Location Frequency
By LuxAlgoNov 6, 2024

The High/Low Location Frequency tool is a powerful trading indicator that helps traders gauge the likelihood of market tops and bottoms over various periods. This tool enhances trading strategies by providing a statistical analysis of price patterns, making it essential for traders looking to refine their market predictions.
How to Trade with the High/Low Location Frequency Indicator?
The tool empowers traders by allowing them to analyze probability data configured across four distinct periods:
- HOUR OF DAY: Assess the likelihood of top and bottom price occurrences in each hour.
- DAY OF WEEK: Determine the probability for each day within the week.
- DAY OF MONTH: Examine trends for each day within the month.
- MONTH OF YEAR: Analyze the likelihood per month.
A user-friendly dashboard displays this data, which traders can customize in position. The dashboard header reveals vital statistical information, including the duration of the data collection. Traders can toggle filters to refine their analysis, ensuring the display is tailored to their specific requirements. Probabilities appear in one to three columns depending on the data rows.
Utilizing Advanced Filters for Enhancing Data Analysis
With the advanced filters, traders are equipped to remove unnecessary data points, heightening the analysis's precision. These filters accommodate various data range exclusions based on the following criteria:
- HOURS OF DAY: Filter by hours, available range 0-23.
- DAYS OF WEEK: Filter by day, with range options from 1-7.
- DAYS OF MONTH: Days spanning from 1 to 31.
- MONTHS: Months from 1 to 12.
- YEARS: Spanning the years 1000 to 2999.
For markets like crypto that operate continuously, the week begins from Sunday for these filters, offering unique configuration options. For traditional markets, they span Monday to Friday. For practical application, one may exclude recent years or specific days to avoid noise in these analyses:
- DAYS OF WEEK: Include/exclude with
