ARP QUICK START GUIDE
Get set up with Asian Range Pro in just a few minutes.
STEP 1 - ADD ARP TO METATRADER
INSTALL ARP ON YOUR MT4/MT5 CHART
Download the ARP file from Gumroad and extract it if it’s in a ZIP folder.
In MetaTrader on your Windows computer, select File → Open Data Folder.
Open MQL4 → Indicators for MT4, or MQL5 → Indicators for MT5.
Copy the matching file into that folder: .ex4 for MT4 or .ex5 for MT5.
Restart MetaTrader, or right-click Indicators in the Navigator and choose Refresh.
Go to View → Navigator → Indicators → Asian Range Pro. Drag it onto your chart, check the settings, and select OK.
Click Asian Range Pro to add it to your chart.
STEP 2 - UNDERSTAND THE ARP STATUS
WAITING - ARP is waiting for the Asian Session to begin.
BUILDING - The Asian Range is currently forming.
VAILD - The completed Asian Range is within your selected maximum pip range. The high and low price levels will display for 1 hour.
INVALID - The Asian Range exceeded your selected maximum pip range , no valid box is shown unless chosen on settings.
STEP 3 - CHECK YOUR SETTINGS
Asian Session - Default: 00:00-06:00 London Time.
Max Pip Range - Defaut 26 Pips
Show Invalid - Turn on if you want invalid ranges to display
Timeframe - Use ARP on H1 and lower
You can adjust the session times and maximum range to suit your own trading approach
STEP 4 - USING ARP EACH DAY
1. Add ARP to your chart and allow the Asian range to build.
2. Check the ARP status before considering a setup.
3. VALID means the completed range meets your selected criteria.
4. INVALID means the range does not meet your criteria — no box, no trade.
5. When VALID, ARP displays the range high and low price levels for 1 hour after the Asian session ends.
6. Use these levels alongside your own London breakout trading rules and risk management.
ARP identifies and displays the range — it does not tell you to enter a trade.
STEP 5 - QUICK REMINDERS
ARP is designed for H1 charts and below.
• You can customise the session times in the settings.
• VALID means the range meets your selected criteria.
• INVALID means the range does not meet your criteria.
• Price levels remain visible for 1 hour after the Asian session ends when the range is VALID.
• Always use your own trading rules and risk management.
