NR4 and NR7 are Narrow Range candlestick patterns that signal a period of low volatility — a compression that often precedes a large directional move.
Look for NR7 stocks that also have a trending bias (Bullish or Bearish). If bias is Bullish and RSI is between 40–60, a breakout above the high is a high-probability setup. Combine with volume confirmation — a breakout candle with above-average volume is ideal.
Narrow Range Strategy is a breakout-based trading strategy based on the principle that volatility contraction usually precedes volatility expansion. When a stock's daily range narrows to its smallest in 4 or 7 days, it signals a potential explosive move in either direction.
NR4 (Narrow Range of 4 Days) identifies stocks where today's high-to-low range is smaller than the previous three days' ranges. This compression signals a potential breakout. Enter long if price breaks above today's high, enter short if price breaks below today's low.
NR7 (Narrow Range of 7 Days) is a stronger version of NR4 — today's range must be the smallest of the last seven days. NR7 breakouts carry higher probability because the volatility compression is more pronounced. A bullish breakout occurs when price moves above the NR7 candle's high; a bearish breakout when price falls below the NR7 candle's low.
