The ADR Reversal Indicator

The ADR Reversal Indicator shows you at a glance where price is currently trading in relation to its normal average daily range. You will get instant alerts via pop-up, email or push when price exceeds its average range and levels above it of your choosing, so you can jump into pullbacks and reversals quickly. The indicator draws horizontal lines on the chart at the average daily range extremes and also extensions above those levels which have mathematical probabilities attached to them of price exceeding them.

There’s a dashboard too which monitors every instrument you trade!

You can use the Market Reversal Alerts EA to auto trade ADR reversal levels too!

Around 60% of the time price trades within its normal average daily range (ADR) and pushes above these levels are usually an indicator of a sharp price move which will typically have a pullback (profit take) move following it. You can take advantage of these sharp moves by trading the pullback from the top or bottom of the daily range to the most recent level of support or resistance.

Over 20 years of historical data was gathered to find the average percentage chances of price moving beyond specific ADR levels for the major forex pairs and a selection of crosses. This data indicated that price only moved beyond 200% of it’s ADR 3% of the time, meaning your odds of a reversal or pullback at that level would be 97%!!!

These are the ADR extension averages shown by the data:

Price exceeded 100% of ADR10 roughly 42% of the time.
Price exceeded 125% of ADR10 roughly 23% of the time.
Price exceeded 150% of ADR10 roughly 12% of the time.
Price exceeded 175% of ADR10 roughly 6% of the time.
Price exceeded 200% of ADR10 roughly 3% of the time.
Price exceeded 225% of ADR10 roughly 2% of the time.

As you can see from the levels above, if price gets to 150% of its normal ADR the odds of it going further are only 12% giving you a massive advantage. Wait for price action to show you signs of a turn at that level and jump in on the pullback!

Indicator Settings:

  • Select the ADR number you would like to work with. NOTE: Statistics above are based on ADR10 data.
  • Choose the colours and styling of the lines for ADR levels.
  • Select the type of alerts you want to receive from pop-ups, emails or push alerts.
  • Option to turn each level on or off if you would like to only receive alerts at specific ADR extremes.
  • Choose the text for the alerts you would like for each level.

Entry Strategy Idea:

Wait for price to get to a specific level and receive an alert. The higher the level the better the chance of a reversal but the fewer alerts you will receive. When you get an alert you can either wait for a good price action candlestick pattern to form (engulfing, hammer, shooting star etc…) or you may want to use a tight EMA like EMA9 and jump in. M5 or M15 are the best timeframes to use.

These trades are meant to be scalping trades, so ideally target the most recent high or low that is likely to act as a level of support or resistance. Often these ADR alerts happen in the London or NY sessions, so targeting highs and lows of the Asian session is often a good idea.

Grid Trading ADR Levels:

Many people grid trade using ADR. Enter small positions at selected ADR levels (100%, 150%, 200% etc) and then as price moves over the levels you gain a position with a higher average each time a new trade triggers. This then allows more profit to be made on the pullback and a higher average price entry than just the first position taken.

Other Notes on ADR:

Be careful of ADR extensions that happen after fundamental news events. These can sometimes be the start of new multi day pushes and less chance of a pullback or reversal.

Look out for price levels when you get an ADR alert. If there is a recent level that has just been breached, it’s often an indicator of a stop hunt. The market is just pushing to take out people’s stops, and pullbacks or reversals are much more likely.
