The Range Filter: 5 minutes vs 1 hour
The popular Range Filter Buy and Sell signals (100 / 3.0) in TradingView's own Strategy Tester, booked three ways on the same signals, plus a test of the best settings on a month they were never tuned on.
17 August to 15 October 2026, after commission:
On 5 minutes 513 of the 1,595 signals were fast flips (a new signal within 12 candles). The 200 EMA rule was picked on the first month only and made +19.8 R on the hour chart in the second; on 5 minutes it lost 45.4 R there.
Recorded 15 October 2026. Closed candles; inside a candle the price runs open, nearer extreme, other extreme, as TradingView's broker emulator does. After commission (0.01 % per order). Past results, not a forecast.
