ORB Retest Targets

Overview ORB Retest Targets for NinjaTrader 8 builds the Opening Range for you every session, tints it by day bias, marks the first clean breakout and projects a ladder of range-based targets above and below it. Built for opening range traders who want the same levels, the same rules and the same targets every day. Non-repainting, automation-ready, Strategy Builder compatible. Why This Matters Marking the range, measuring it and working out targets takes time right when the market moves fastest. This indicator does it on the first bar after the window closes, and the targets scale with the range, so a quiet open and a wild one are handled the same way. What Makes It Different Day Bias Built InEach session's range midpoint is compared with the previous one and the range is tinted bullish or bearish. Clean Breakout SignalsOne arrow per breakout. A new signal on the same side needs price to come back through the midpoint first, so chop does not print a string of arrows. Targets That ScaleTargets at a percentage of the range width. The next one appears as soon as the previous one is reached.
