LNL Fractal Energy
Markets knows only two movements. Expansion and Consolidation. The price is either moving or it is consolidating. Fractal Energy will show you which move is about to happen. The funny thing is.. Fractal Energy will NOT tell you the direction of the potential move nor the time when the move will happen. It only shows whether the energy is accumulating or exhausting and which one of these moves are about to happen.
Fractal Energy Zones:
1. Gray = Neutral Energy, price will spend most of the time between the 0.60 and 0.30 ranges, if the FE is hanging around midline chop can be expected.
2. Pink = Energy Building (low compression), pink can produce solid moves but can turn in to a red or dark red which are way more powerful.
3. Red = Energy Building (yet to be released), once the FE colors red there is a high probability for a bigger than expected move.
4. Dark Red = Energy Building (high compression), dark red is rare and can be seen usually around earnings reports (explosive move can be expected).
5. Yellow = Energy Released = Exhaustion, everything ends at some point, yellow color represents the exhaustion of the move (the car ran out of gas).
6. Orange = Extreme Exhaustion, high probability for a sideways action or a reversal.
Tips & Tricks:
1. Importance of the Midline:
- Midline can be used as a target for the compressions. Once the FE reach the midpoint, the move is usually considered to be over.
2. Huge Gaps on earnings DO NOT COUNT:
- If the price heavily gaps up or gaps down, FE usually drops too steep with the gap thus signals after such moves can be ignored.
3. Fractal Energy Length & Time Frames:
- For the daily & weekly time frame length of 13 works nicely. But for the lower TF length 13 starts to lag behind the price a little. I would suggest using Length 15 for 30min to 4 hour and Length 17 - 20 for below 30min time frames.
4. Exhaustions:
- Exhaustions can be played too. Once the FE drops below 0.30 the price usually stays within the weekly expected move (great for iron condors), or non directional option strategies.. yellow/orange = price either reverse or stays at same levels for a few candles..
5. Combination of direction based studies with the magnitude based studies:
- Use the FE as a confirmation of your analysis from other (direction-based) trend or momentum indicators. Once you analyze your direction you can use Fractal Energy (magnitute-based) indicator to analyse whether there is a chance for a big move or not.
Hope it helps.

Small Update - LNL Fractal Energy now supports another FE with custom length
Another FE with custom length can be turned on (as the second midline). Default settings (25) can show whether there is a potenial for even bigger energy release.
