what method to filter out Sideways market?

What method/system/indicator/ ETC.. to use on MT4 to filter out sideways ranging markets?

I know about using multiple MA's and when they are tangled...which is O.K. but just wondering if there are other ideas.

THANKS!

What do you consider a ranging market? Like last time, the GBPUSD was range bound between 30-50 PIPs, is this also considered a sideways market?

I am using Ichimoku for H4/D1 timeframes together with CMO, AbsoluteStrange and two MaksiGen indicators (one is for trend lines and the other one is for possible stop orders breakout). I am doing it in the morning just to understand to trade or not to trade. It is enogh in most cases.

To estimate the market during a day i am using M5 chart with VQ (H1 settings), MTF_AbsoluteStrenght (H1 settings attached for M5 chart), PriceTender or PriceTrend (sorry, don't remember the name - some indicator with 3 lines in separate window), some signal indicator (anyone), sometimes standard Stochastic with 14,5,5 and with 50,5,5 and some other settings.
Besides, i am using standard MACD indicator.
But it is during a day only.
Because I am not looking for MetaTrader at 24/7. I am looking on the forum more. And if I don't want to miss the signals so I need to estimate the market condition (just to understand when I need to open Metatrader and for how long).

I am estimating ranging or flat and so on market condition on H4 and H1 timeframes: H1/D1 is directly openning H4/D1 chart and H1 - using MTF indicators on M5 chart.

Look at the image. It is the chart which I see every morning. It is everything there: breakout levels (dotted bue/red lines), support/resistance lines, trend and so on. Everything. So it is enough in most cases to understand to trade today or not.
