Updated Always In by Swing Break
Indicator: Always-In by Swing Break
Purpose:
This indicator tracks when the market transitions from one directional phase to another — the moment when it stops doing what it was doing and starts doing something new. It follows an “Always-In” logic inspired by Al Brooks’ price-action framework.
Always-In by Swing Break
Tracks directional shifts based on confirmed swing-high and swing-low breaks using ATR buffers. Highlights trend flips with yellow borders, paints directional bias (green/red), plots a customizable dashed “must-hold” line, and marks breakout failures (FS/FL).
Includes RTH/ETH bar numbering with OB/OS awareness and a live stats panel showing ATR, bar range, and RSI.
How to Use:
Follow the colored borders to stay aligned with the Always-In direction — green for long bias, red for short. A yellow border marks a possible trend flip when price breaks a confirmed swing level by the ATR buffer. Use the dashed flip-line as the “must-hold” level: if price closes back beyond it within the failure window, it signals a potential reversal (Failed short (FS) / Failed long (FL) marker). Watch RTH bar numbers and the RSI panel for context — when bar counts and RSI show overbought or oversold conditions the bar numbers change color, tighten profit targets or wait for a new swing break setup.
