The Bullish Breakout After Consolidation Indicator is designed to help traders identify potential bullish breakout opportunities following a period of tight price consolidation. This indicator combines price action and volume analysis to signal when a stock may experience a significant upward movement.
Features:
Consolidation Range Tightness: The indicator identifies periods where the stock price consolidates within a narrow range, defined as a range less than 2% of the lowest low during the consolidation period. This tight consolidation is often a precursor to strong price movements.
Breakout Detection: Once the price breaks above the highest high of the consolidation range, and this breakout occurs after a specified number of days post-consolidation, the indicator marks it as a potential breakout opportunity.
Volume Confirmation: To avoid false breakouts, the indicator requires increased trading volume during the breakout. This ensures that the breakout is supported by substantial market activity.
Visual Cues:
Breakout Label: A "Breakout" label appears above the bar where a valid breakout occurs, making it easy to spot potential entry points. Support and Resistance Lines: Horizontal lines plot the highest high (resistance) and lowest low (support) during the consolidation period, helping traders visualize the breakout levels. Moving Averages: Optional 20-day and 50-day simple moving averages are plotted for additional trend confirmation. How to Use:
Apply the Indicator: Add the indicator to your chart in TradingView to start analyzing potential breakouts. Observe Consolidation: Look for tight consolidation periods where the price trades within a narrow range. Identify Breakouts: Watch for breakouts where the price moves above the highest high of the consolidation range, supported by increased volume.

Consolidation Length: Number of days to consider for consolidation. Range Percentage: Maximum percentage range for consolidation tightness.
