DS ProTrendRange
A trend, pullback and range panel on one statistical scale — a latched trend state, the pullback filled as a pocket in the trend's own color, and one closed-bar RESUME signal that carries the price where it is wrong.
- Trend, pullback and range, named
- One RESUME per leg, with its HOLD
- No threshold to tune, on any chart
- Locked panel scale, never drifts
On the chart
Recording · 15 sA session playing out with DS ProTrendRange: the panel turns from a violet downtrend to a teal uptrend, with the pullback pockets and resume shelves drawn as it goes.

Reads price only. Both of its readings sit on one statistical scale, so one sigma is the same reading on every instrument, timeframe and bar type.
How it helps
A pullback trade needs three answers in a row — is there a trend, is this a pullback inside it or the end of it, and has the pullback finished — and most panels give one of them. DS ProTrendRange gives all three on one scale: a thick TREND line for the tide, a thin SWING line for the wave, a filled pocket while the wave runs against the tide, and one signal, the RESUME, on the bar the pocket closes. When there is no tide to trade with, it says RANGING and draws the range the market is working instead.

In detail
Most panels answer one question. A pullback trade asks three: is there a trend, is this a pullback inside it, and has the pullback finished.
One measurement taken over two lengths, on one statistical scale — a thick TREND line for the tide, a thin SWING line for the wave — with the pullback filled as a pocket and one closed-bar signal, the RESUME, on the bar the pocket closes.
What the panel reads
- TREND latches on at one sigma and stays on until the close crosses its own average — a state, not a line that flickers
- PULLBACK fills as a pocket in the trend's own color; RANGING steps the panel back to neutral and draws the range's two rails on price
- RESUME — one per leg, confirmed on the next close, graded PRIME, STANDARD or MINOR
- Every resume is drawn on price as a shelf at its HOLD level: the pullback's own extreme, the price that says it did not hold
One sigma is one sigma on every instrument, timeframe and bar type, so there is no threshold to tune. It reads the state of the market and marks a precisely defined event — it is not a forecast. The panel's Y-axis locks, so a chart drag can never push the reading off its own scale.
Closed-bar decisions throughout — it does not repaint.
Test it on your own charts first.
Four screenshots and a paragraph are not enough to judge an indicator on. Watch it work in your own instrument, on your own timeframe, before it goes anywhere near a live account. Both ways of doing that are free.
- 01
Replay a session you have already seen
Market Replay runs a past session back tick by tick, at whatever speed you like. You get to watch DS ProTrendRange print in conditions you remember, and pause on the bars where it mattered.
- 02
Then trade it forward, on the simulator
Replay shows you the past with the ending already known. The simulator does not — it runs live, in real time, on real prices, with nothing at stake. That is where you find out whether you can actually act on what you are seeing.
A simulated fill is not a live fill. Replay and the simulator cannot reproduce real queue position, slippage, or what it feels like to hold a position with money on it, and results from either may differ materially from live trading. Test to learn how a tool behaves — not to estimate what it might return.
