You see a strong breakout and jump in confidently — only to watch the market reverse just moments later. By the time you realize it was a fake breakout, your position is already deep in the red.
Storm Eye helps you avoid that trap.
Built for NinjaTrader 8, this smart indicator identifies fake breakouts and detects where the real move is about to start. It spots the “calm before the storm” — that deceptive moment when price appears steady right before reversing hard.
The name Storm Eye captures this perfectly: a fakeout often feels calm and promising before turning into sudden chaos.
What does Storm Eye do?
Storm Eye uses a 3-step logic to detect fake breakouts and confirm high-probability entries:
-
Identify a Breakout:
Detects a candle with the largest body emerging from a low-volatility or sideways phase — signaling a potential breakout. Marked with a yellow symbol. -
Identify an Opposite Breakaway:
When price rejects the breakout and moves the other way with stronger momentum, Storm Eye flags this candle — marked with a star symbol — as a confirmed fakeout. -
Generate an Entry Signal:
The indicator then checks subsequent candles to ensure no counteraction against the breakaway. If confirmed, it plots a valid entry signal aligned with the true market direction.
This structured process filters out unreliable breakouts and reveals powerful reversal setups with clarity and confidence.
