SR Zones

An indicator to visualize classic support and resistance zones based on swing highs and swing lows.

Platform: Atas

Overview

SR Zones is a clean and efficient support and resistance indicator that automatically identifies and visualizes key price levels based on swing highs and lows.

The indicator draws zones at swing points when a bar's high or low is the highest or lowest within a configurable period on both sides. These zones extend forward until price breaks through them, giving you a clear visual framework of the levels currently defending price movement.

What sets SR Zones apart is its master/slave functionality. Attach the indicator in master mode to a higher timeframe chart (like 15-minute) with extensive historical data, and it will export swing data to a JSON file. Then add it in slave mode to your execution chart (like 5-minute) to display those same zones without recalculating them. This gives you higher timeframe context on lower timeframe charts while keeping your system resources efficient.

Key Features

Automatic Swing Detection

Configurable swing period left and right parameters to control swing sensitivity. The indicator automatically identifies swing highs and lows as they form, requiring no manual input or subjective interpretation.

Master/Slave Architecture

Run the indicator in master mode on one chart to calculate and export zones, then display those same zones on multiple slave charts without redundant calculations. Perfect for traders who use multiple timeframes or monitor several instruments.

Zone Extension

Zones automatically extend to the right side of your chart until price breaks through them. See at a glance which levels are currently active and which have been invalidated by price action.

Auto-Adjustment

Zones can automatically be adjusted as price is testing resting supply and demand. If a bar closes inside a zone, the min/max values of the current candle's open and close price will be used to adjust the zone's size.

Fully Customizable Display

Configure swing and zone colors, swing marker size, zone overlap behavior, and extension settings to match your chart aesthetic and trading style. Clean visuals that integrate seamlessly with any setup.

Higher Timeframe Context

Display daily or weekly zones on your intraday charts without cluttering your workspace with multiple windows. The master/slave system brings higher timeframe structure to your execution chart.

Works with Any Bar Type

Compatible with all intraday bar types including time-based, tick, range, and Renko bars. The swing logic adapts to your preferred chart construction.

Why SR Zones?

While Atas provides swing and order block indicators, it lacks a straightforward classic support and resistance tool. SR Zones fills this gap by focusing exclusively on what price has actually done — not predictions, not complex calculations, just clean identification of where reversals occurred.

The master/slave functionality solves a common problem for multi-timeframe traders: you want higher timeframe levels on your execution chart, but you don't want to load massive amounts of historical data on every chart or perform redundant calculations. With SR Zones, calculate once in master mode, then display everywhere in slave mode.

Support and resistance trading is one of the most fundamental approaches in technical analysis. Price respects these levels across all markets and timeframes. SR Zones simply makes them visible without requiring you to draw lines manually or update them as price evolves.

Ideal For

  • Level Traders: Traders who structure their entries and exits around support and resistance zones
  • Multi-Timeframe Traders: Display daily or higher timeframe zones on intraday charts for better context
  • Breakout Traders: Quickly identify when price breaks through key levels that have held previously
  • Range Traders: See current swing highs and lows defining the active trading range
  • Systematic Traders: Remove subjectivity from level identification with consistent swing logic

Technical Details

SR Zones is built for the Atas trading platform and works with all intraday bar types. The indicator uses configurable swing period left and right parameters to determine swing points. When operating in master mode, it exports zone data to a JSON file after each completed bar. Slave mode instances read this file to display zones without performing calculations.

Customizable parameters include swing period settings, zone colors, swing marker size, zone overlap behavior, and extension options. The indicator efficiently handles large datasets in master mode while maintaining minimal resource usage in slave mode.

Pricing & Philosophy

After 20 years of trading, I've learned one fundamental truth: no indicator, no matter how sophisticated, will transform a losing trader into a winning one. Trading success comes from education, screen time, and deliberate practice — not from purchasing tools.

It's like tennis. You can buy the most expensive racket, the best shoes, premium balls and designer gear, but you'll still lose every match against someone who invested in proper training while using basic equipment. The gear doesn't make the player; the training does.

That's why my indicators are completely free. Your money is better spent on quality education, mentorship, or simply preserving your trading capital while you develop your skills. If this indicator helps you identify better levels, improves your trade location, or simply saves you from a few bad entries, then it has served its purpose.

That said, developing and maintaining trading tools takes time and effort. If one of my indicators has genuinely improved your trading or you find it valuable enough to be part of your daily workflow, I'd appreciate a voluntary donation to support continued development and updates.
