WRB Analysis is a method that involves the combination of analyzing changes in volatility and supply/demand. WRB Analysis helps traders to understand and exploit changes in volatility as a way to identify key price areas where there’s an important change in supply/demand prior to the appearance of any trade signals.

WRB = Wide Range Body is an interval that has a body (difference between Open and Close) with a price area larger than the bodies of each of the prior three intervals (each interval individually compared to the WRB).

WRB Hidden GAP = Is the price action of the single interval before the WRB and the price action of the single interval after the WRB. If you remove the WRB and there’s no overlapping in prices (not a single tick) between the interval before the WRB and the interval after the WRB, the WRB is considered a WRB Hidden GAP. The WRB Hidden GAP must first qualify as a WRB prior to being transformed into a WRB Hidden GAP.

WRB Hidden GAPs represents key changes in supply/demand and shows where key market participants have open trade positions or exited trade and their actions have caused a key change in supply/demand.
