The Rally Base Drop SND Pivots indicator is designed to utilize "Rally", "Base", and "Drop" candles to meticulously identify pivot points that establish key supply and demand levels in the trading market.

How to Utilize the Rally Base Drop SND Pivots Indicator?

The Rally, Base, and Drop (RBD) candles offer a structurally sound approach to viewing market structures via a methodized technique. By capitalizing on this concept, traders can pinpoint vital pivot areas where Rallies and Drops visibly converge.

The RBD SND Pivots are akin to the traditionally identified 'fractal' pivot points, but they have a distinct difference.

RBD SND Pivots necessitate a precise sequence of Rally and Drop candles occurring directly in succession, demanding that one side of the pivot be composed solely of green candles, while the opposing side consists entirely of red candles or vice versa.

This approach ensures that the pivot levels derived from Rally, Base, and Drop candles are embedded with stringent logic, supporting the formation of a comprehensive trading strategy when integrated with other traditional SND methodologies.

Moreover, the enforcement of this logical structure while seeking pivots efficiently filters out a significant amount of market noise, leading to clearer decision-making.

Understanding the Rally Base Drop SND Concept

In conventional SND systems, the term "Base" can imply a variety of meanings, but in the context of this indicator, the "Base" refers to a pivot resultant. Once a pivot is discerned, the "Base" is acknowledged as the initial Rally or Drop of the latter half of the pivot structure.

After a pivot is established, the high or low of the base candle is utilized to demarcate the pivot level, providing traders with reliable reference points in their trading strategy.

Configuring Your Indicator Settings

  • Length: Modifies the number of required Rally and Drop Candles necessary to ascertain pivots. Example: A setting of "3" signifies 3 Rally candles followed by 3 Drop candles.
  • Historical Lookback: Adjusts the visibility of historical levels based on the specified number of bars Lookback from the present bar. A setting of 0 allows all levels to be visible. (It defaults to 0.)
