Updated Custom Opening Range - Commodities
The Custom Opening Range Indicator for Commodities is designed for instruments that trade nearly 24 hours, such as crude oil or natural gas. It allows traders to define the Opening Range based on Indian Standard Time (IST)—typically starting at 3:30 AM IST, which aligns with the global commodities market open. Users can customize both the start time and duration of the range (e.g., 5, 15, or 30 minutes). The indicator dynamically plots the high and low of this range and shades the area between them, providing a clear visual reference for breakout or reversal setups during the rest of the trading session.
