Chaikin Money Flow (CMF) vs Opening Range

Chaikin Money Flow (CMF) is a volume-based oscillator that measures the flow of money into or out of an asset over a defined period, indicating whether buying or selling pressure is currently dominant.

The Opening Range is the high and low price boundary established during the first defined period of a trading session, typically the first 15 to 30 minutes, which sets the initial reference framework for intraday trading decisions.
