This indicator draws on the classical moving-average-and-Bollinger-Bands framework commonly taught by many specialist authors, to combine an 18-day Bollinger Band setting with a set of key moving averages (21, 50, 100, 200) to read trend direction, volatility, and potential support/resistance zones together. This script builds on that same general approach with a fully customizable, five-MA overlay and an added forward-projection layer.
Features:
📊 5 Independent Moving Averages
Each MA has its own length and type (SMA, EMA, RMA, VWMA, HMA), fully customizable to fit any trading style.
- MA1 (default: 8 EMA) — plotted as stepline for fast reaction visibility
- MA2 (default: 21 SMA), - MA3 (default: 50 SMA), - MA4 (default: 100 SMA) and - MA5 (default: 200 SMA)
📈 Bollinger Bands
Middle line 18-period, 2.0 deviation bands (basis, upper, lower) to frame volatility and price extremes around the trend structure.
🔮 Forward Projection Lines
Dashed projection lines extend from end of lines into future bars, based on each MA's recent slope (lookback-configurable). This gives traders a visual read on where each average is heading if current momentum persists.
- Lookback period: 3–10 bars (controls slope sensitivity)
- Forward projection length: 5–30 bars
- Projections can be toggled on/off
How to use it:
Watch for convergence or crossing of the moving averages and their projected paths — these often mark potential inflection points. Use the Bollinger Bands to gauge whether price is stretched relative to trend. Combine short-term (MA1) and long-term (MA5) MA slopes to confirm trend direction and strength.
Notes:
- Overlay indicator, works on any timeframe and instrument
- All moving average types and lengths are fully adjustable in settings
- Projection lines are visual guides based on recent slope, not predictive signals — always confirm with price action and other analysis
- Conceptual framework inspired by moving-average/Bollinger-Band methods commonly taught by several specialist authors and used by many professionals to identify support and resistance pivots. Indicator
Volatility Forecast [EXCAVO]Forward Projection of the Bollinger Envelope with Adaptive Horizon and Slope Clamp
The Volatility Forecast takes the classical Bollinger Bands and
projects the basis and the bands forward by a configurable number of bars.
Slopes of the basis, standard deviation and ATR are estimated from linear
regression over a lookback window, then extrapolated through a smooth
curve into the right side of the chart. Small orange dots mark band
reclaim events on confirmed closed bars.
The forecast horizon adapts to the chart timeframe so the projection
stays meaningful at every TF, and a slope clamp prevents the bands from
ballooning into unrealistic territory after sharp regime shifts.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
▸ HOW TO USE
Step 1 → Add the indicator. The current Bollinger Bands are
plotted on the chart and a dashed envelope extends to the
right with the projected basis and bands.
Step 2 → Read the projection. The projected upper and lower
bands show the most likely volatility envelope over the
next bars under the current trend and volatility regime.
Wider end = expansion expected; narrower end = compression.
Step 3 → Use the reclaim dots. A small orange dot below a bar
marks a confirmed bull band reclaim (price tagged the lower
band and pulled back inside). A dot above a bar marks a
bear reclaim. These are context, not entries.
Step 4 → Check the dashboard. The top right panel reads the
projection mode, current width vs its rolling average,
band state, and the last reclaim.
Step 5 → Combine with structure. The envelope pairs well with
trend and structure tools. A breakout that aligns with an
expanding projected envelope tends to continue; one against
a contracting envelope tends to fade.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
▸ HOW IT CALCULATES
◆ Bollinger Bands
Basis is a simple moving average of the source over Length (default 20).
Standard deviation is computed over the same window. Bands are basis plus
or minus Multiplier times standard deviation (default 2.0). These are the
solid plotted lines on the chart.
◆ Linear Regression Slopes
For the projection, the algorithm estimates per-bar slopes from a linear
regression of the basis, the standard deviation, and the ATR over the
Slope Lookback window (default 40). Slope is taken as the difference
between the linreg value at offset 0 and offset 1 - the per-bar drift
the regression expects to continue.
◆ Slope Clamp
Each slope is then clamped to a safety bound so that the cumulative
projected displacement stays sensible. End to end, the projected basis
cannot drift more than two current band-widths, and the projected
standard deviation or ATR cannot grow more than 50% of its current value.
Sign of the slope is preserved so trend direction is intact, only the
magnitude is bounded. This keeps the projection meaningful after sharp
regime shifts.
◆ Forward Projection
Three modes turn slopes into a projected envelope across the forecast
horizon:
Linear extends basis and width on a straight line using the
current slope at every step.
Smooth Curve (default) eases from the current value toward a
dynamic endpoint via a smoothstep curve so the projection has a
natural arc instead of a hard linear extrapolation.
Adaptive Volatility drives the projected width with ATR slope
instead of standard-deviation slope. Useful when volatility is
regime-dependent and the ATR captures it better than stdev.
A projection floor at 50% ensures the envelope never collapses to a
single point on declining-volatility regimes.
◆ Auto Timeframe Forecast
Forecast Bars defaults to Auto, which picks the horizon from the chart
timeframe: 40 bars on 4h and below, 20 on Daily, 10 on Weekly, 6 on
Monthly+. Manual override is available for operators who want a fixed
bar count regardless of timeframe.
◆ Band Reclaim Markers
A bull reclaim fires when the prior bar's low touched the lower band,
the current bar's low has pulled back above the lower band, and the
close sits below the basis. A bear reclaim is symmetric on the upper
band. Cooldown of Length bars prevents same-direction stacking. The
optional Trend MA filter keeps bull marks only above the MA and bear
marks only below. By default markers fire only on confirmed closed bars
(no repaint); Real-time Markers can be enabled if intra-bar feedback is
preferred.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
▸ WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT
◆ Adaptive Horizon
The forecast horizon scales with the chart timeframe. The projection
shows a comparable arc on intraday, daily, weekly and monthly without
manual tuning per chart.
◆ Slope Clamp Safety Net
Linear-regression slopes can overshoot after sharp moves or on long
horizons. The clamp caps the cumulative displacement so the projection
cannot grow into unrealistic ranges, regardless of the underlying slope.
◆ Three Projection Modes
Linear, Smooth Curve and Adaptive Volatility cover the common shapes a
volatility envelope can take. Smooth Curve uses smoothstep easing for
a natural arc; Adaptive Volatility ignores stdev drift and tracks ATR
instead.
◆ Confirmed Reclaim Markers
Small orange dots above or below the bar mark band reclaim events. They
fire on confirmed closed bars by default (no repaint), with an optional
real-time mode for operators who prefer intra-bar feedback. A trend-MA
filter keeps the bias clean.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

ATC Bollinger Band Percentile v1.1What It Is
The ATC Bollinger Band Percentile (ATC BBP) is a dual-layer oscillator that tells you two things simultaneously: where price sits inside its Bollinger envelope right now, and whether the current volatility environment is compressing, neutral, or expanding — measured against real historical data, not a hardcoded threshold.
Most Bollinger Band tools give you the bands. This one gives you the context behind the bands.
________________________________________
Who It's Built For
ATC BBP is designed for retail traders who already use Bollinger Bands or have tried them but found the raw %B reading too noisy or too vague to act on. If you've ever looked at a squeeze setup and wondered whether the bands were actually tight or just tighter than yesterday, this indicator was built to answer that question directly.
It works best for traders who use volatility as a filter before entering trend or breakout trades, want a cleaner and less reactive version of %B, or are building toward understanding normalized, statistically-grounded indicators.
________________________________________
Core Concept
Bollinger Bands place price in a dynamic envelope built from a moving average and standard deviation. The %B reading converts that envelope into a 0–100 scale: 100 means price is sitting on the upper band, 0 means price is on the lower band, and 50 means price is at the midpoint.
That's useful, but the raw reading is noisy and the bands themselves don't tell you whether they're wide or narrow relative to history. A band can look visually compressed on your chart and still be wider than it's been 75% of the time — or vice versa.
ATC BBP solves both problems. It smooths %B with a Hull Moving Average to reduce reactive noise, and it scores the current bandwidth as a percentile against a rolling window of its own history — so you always know objectively whether compression is real.
________________________________________
ATC Upgrades Over Standard %B
HMA Smoothing on %B The raw %B line reacts sharply to every candle. ATC BBP applies a Hull Moving Average to %B before it's plotted, cutting noise while preserving responsiveness. The raw %B is still available in the data window for comparison, but the smoothed version drives everything you see. You can adjust the smoothing length or disable it entirely.
Bandwidth Percentile Scoring This is the core ATC enhancement. Instead of asking "are the bands narrow?", ATC BBP asks "are the bands narrow relative to the last 125 bars of bandwidth history?" The bandwidth percentile is computed by ranking the current bandwidth against every value in the lookback window. A reading of 8% means the bands are tighter right now than they've been on 92% of recent bars. That's a real squeeze signal — not an eyeball call.
Empirical Zone Thresholds with Hysteresis The %B zone boundaries are not hardcoded round numbers. The defaults are set at empirically sensible levels and are fully adjustable. More importantly, every state transition — both the squeeze state and the %B zone — uses a configurable hysteresis band so the indicator doesn't flicker at the edges. Once a state is entered, it takes a meaningful move to exit it.
________________________________________
What's on the Chart
ATC BBP plots in a separate pane below your price chart.
The %B Line The smoothed %B oscillator on a 0–100 scale. The line changes color dynamically to reflect the current zone: green shades when price is in the lower portion of the bands, red shades in the upper portion, neutral grey for mid-range. When price tags or exceeds either band, the color deepens to full intensity. A fill between the %B line and the 50-level midline gives an immediate read on whether price is in the upper or lower half of the range.
Horizontal Reference Lines Five levels mark the key zones: lower extreme (0), lower quartile (20), midline (50), upper quartile (80), and upper extreme (100). Low-opacity colored background shading tints each zone — red above the upper quartile, green below the lower quartile, neutral in the middle.
Squeeze Pressure Bar Along the bottom of the pane, a colored bar marks the current squeeze state. Amber indicates a tight squeeze — bandwidth in the lowest percentile tier. Light yellow indicates a developing or loose squeeze. Blue indicates active volatility expansion. When no state is active, the bar disappears — the absence of color is meaningful. Diamond markers appear at the bar when a squeeze begins and again when expansion starts, so state transitions are never missed on a busy chart.
________________________________________
HUD Breakdown
The corner HUD (top right by default) gives you a live read of both indicator layers without having to inspect chart values:
Volatility — current squeeze state label: Tight Squeeze, Loose Squeeze, Expansion, or Neutral, color-coded to match the pressure bar
BW %-ile — the bandwidth percentile as a number, followed by a 10-block progress bar showing where current bandwidth sits on a visual scale from fully compressed to fully expanded
%B Zone — a text label for where price is in the envelope: Below Lower Band, Lower Quartile, Mid Range, Upper Quartile, or Above Upper Band
%B Reading — the smoothed %B value as a number
The HUD supports dark and light themes and can be repositioned to any corner of the pane.
________________________________________
Logic Layers
The indicator runs two independent state machines, each with its own hysteresis logic.
Squeeze State Machine Four states: Tight Squeeze (bandwidth percentile below the tight threshold), Loose Squeeze (between tight and loose thresholds), Neutral (mid-range bandwidth), and Expansion (above the expansion threshold). State transitions require the bandwidth percentile to move beyond the threshold by the hysteresis amount before the state flips. This prevents toggling at the boundary on marginal readings.
%B Zone State Machine Five zones tracking price location within the envelope: Below Lower Band, Lower Quartile, Mid Range, Upper Quartile, and Above Upper Band. The same hysteresis logic applies — once price enters a zone, it stays classified there until it moves decisively into the next zone.
The two machines run independently. You can be in a tight squeeze while price is in the upper quartile — which is a very different setup than a tight squeeze with price at the midline. The HUD shows both readings simultaneously so you always have the full picture.
________________________________________
Alerts
Seven alert conditions are built in.
BBP: Tight Squeeze Started — fires when the squeeze state first enters the tight tier. Use this to monitor compression setups across instruments before they break.
BBP: Tight Squeeze Released — fires when the tight squeeze breaks. This is the exit from compression, which may precede expansion or resolve back to neutral — both are meaningful.
BBP: Expansion Started — fires when bandwidth percentile crosses above the expansion threshold, confirming that volatility is breaking out of compression.
BBP: Price Above Upper Band — fires when %B reaches or exceeds 100, meaning price has tagged or broken through the upper band.
BBP: Price Below Lower Band — fires when %B reaches or falls below 0, meaning price has tagged or broken through the lower band.
BBP: %B Cross Above 50 — fires when smoothed %B crosses above the midline. Price location bias has shifted to the upper half of the envelope.
BBP: %B Cross Below 50 — fires when smoothed %B crosses below the midline. Price location bias has shifted to the lower half.
________________________________________
How to Trade With It
ATC BBP is a context indicator, not a signal generator. It tells you the volatility environment and price location so you can filter and frame your setups — it does not issue buy or sell signals on its own.
Step 1 — Check the Squeeze State First Before anything else, look at the HUD Volatility row and the pressure bar. Tight Squeeze means the market is coiling. Expansion means it's already moving. Neutral means neither is happening. This single read tells you what kind of market you're in before you look at anything else.
Step 2 — Use Squeeze Context to Filter Breakout Setups A tight squeeze is the setup condition for a potential expansion — it does not tell you which direction. When bandwidth is in the lowest 8–10 percentile of its history, start watching price action for the break, but wait for directional confirmation from your primary setup criteria before trading it. The squeeze tells you energy is building. Your edge tells you which way it breaks.
Step 3 — Use %B to Read Location Within the Setup Once you have a directional bias, %B tells you where price currently sits in the envelope. If you're looking for a long entry and %B is already above 80, price is extended toward the top of the range — it may be better to wait for a pullback toward the 50 midline. If %B is mid-range or lower quartile heading into a long setup, there's more room to run before hitting band resistance.
Step 4 — Look for Squeeze-Plus-Zone Confluence The highest-value reads come when both layers line up. A tight squeeze with %B at mid-range or lower quartile means compression is present and price has room to move higher if the break is bullish — watch for expansion to confirm with %B rising through 50. Expansion with %B crossing above 50 means volatility is moving and location bias is shifting bullish simultaneously — often the clearest confirmation that a breakout is real. Expansion with %B above 100 means price is already through the upper band in an expanding environment — valid in strong trends, a caution flag in range conditions.
Step 5 — Use Alerts for Multi-Instrument Monitoring If you're running ATC BBP across multiple instruments or timeframes, set the Tight Squeeze Started and Expansion Started alerts. These fire the moment a state changes so you're never watching the wrong chart while a setup develops elsewhere.
________________________________________
Settings Reference
Bollinger Bands BB Length (default 30) — period for the moving average and standard deviation calculation. Optimized default for QQQ. Increase for slower, more structural readings; decrease for more reactive readings on faster instruments.
BB StdDev Multiplier (default 1.6) — number of standard deviations for the band width. Optimized default for QQQ. Lower values tighten the bands and will increase the frequency of upper/lower extreme readings.
BB Source (default Close) — price source for the band calculation.
Smoothing %B HMA Smoothing (default 8) — Hull Moving Average length applied to %B. Set to 1 to disable smoothing and plot the raw %B line.
Squeeze Quality Bandwidth Percentile Window (default 125) — rolling lookback used to rank the current bandwidth. Larger windows produce more stable percentile readings against longer historical context.
Tight Squeeze Threshold (default 8) — bandwidth percentile below this level is classified as a tight squeeze.
Loose Squeeze Threshold (default 25) — bandwidth percentile between the tight threshold and this level is classified as a developing squeeze.
Expansion Threshold (default 75) — bandwidth percentile above this level is classified as active expansion.
State Hysteresis (default 3.0) — neutral band around each threshold. A state must be exceeded by this amount before the classification changes, preventing flicker on marginal readings.
%B Zones Upper Quartile (default 80) — %B above this is classified as Upper Quartile zone.
Lower Quartile (default 20) — %B below this is classified as Lower Quartile zone.
Upper Extreme (default 100) — %B at or above this is classified as Above Upper Band. Lower
Extreme (default 0) — %B at or below this is classified as Below Lower Band.
Visuals Shade %B Zones — toggles the background zone tinting on the oscillator pane. Show Squeeze Pressure Bar — toggles the colored state bar and diamond markers at the bottom of the pane. Color inputs for all states are fully adjustable if you prefer a different palette.

Recommended Instruments and Timeframes
ATC BBP is tested and validated on ES, NQ, CL, GC, SPY, QQQ, major equities, and major FX pairs. Recommended timeframes are 5m, 15m, 1h, 4h, and 1D. Default settings are optimized for QQQ. When applying to other instruments, the BB Length, StdDev Multiplier, and Bandwidth Percentile Window are the primary settings to adjust for the instrument's typical volatility profile.

Opening Range Failure Zones [AGPro Series]📌 Bollinger Walk Quality
Bollinger Walk Quality is built for one specific question: when price starts walking the outer Bollinger Band, is that walk strong enough to support continuation, or is the structure beginning to fail?
Many Bollinger Band tools focus on band touches, volatility contraction, width percentiles, or squeeze-style expansion setups. This script takes a different approach. It studies the behavior that comes after expansion: persistent upper-band or lower-band walking, directional pressure around the outer lane, pullback quality inside the band structure, and the point where the walk begins to lose control.
The goal is to make Bollinger Band continuation easier to read directly on the chart. Instead of treating every band touch as meaningful, the script scores whether price is staying in the correct outer lane, whether the Bollinger basis supports the active direction, whether pressure is persisting across multiple bars, and whether a pullback is holding in a healthy continuation pocket.
🧭 What The Script Measures
1. Walk Side
The panel identifies whether the active environment is an Upper Walk, Lower Walk, Cooling Walk, or Neutral state.
Upper Walk means price is persistently operating near the upper Bollinger lane while the basis supports upward continuation pressure.
Lower Walk means price is persistently operating near the lower Bollinger lane while the basis supports downward continuation pressure.
Cooling states appear when a recent walk is no longer fully active, but the script is still monitoring pullback quality and failure risk for a limited memory window.
2. Band Pressure
Band Pressure is a quality score for the active or developing walk. It combines outer-lane position, persistence, band contact behavior, basis slope support, and candle direction. A higher score means the walk has stronger structural pressure. A lower score means price is no longer showing durable outer-band control.
This keeps the script focused on continuation quality instead of simple band interaction. The chart can show a band touch, but the panel helps separate a weak touch from a real band-walk environment.
3. Pullback Quality
Healthy band walks often reset toward the middle of the Bollinger structure before continuing. Bollinger Walk Quality tracks that reset through a concept-native pullback pocket.
The pullback pocket is not a generic support or resistance rectangle. It is projected from the current Bollinger structure and represents the area where a band walk can cool off while still keeping its continuation profile intact.
The panel can show states such as Awaiting Pullback, Testing Pocket, Clean Hold, or Weak Reset. This helps distinguish a controlled continuation reset from a walk that is losing quality.
4. Failure Risk
Failure Risk is designed to catch the moment when an active or recently active band walk starts to break down. It rises when price loses the outer lane, pressure falls, the basis slope weakens, or price begins to threaten the Bollinger basis.
The failure label is intentionally restrained. It appears only on fresh failure events, so the chart remains clean and readable instead of filling with repeated warnings.
🎯 Core Features
- Outer-band walk detection for upper and lower Bollinger continuation phases
- Band pressure scoring based on lane position, persistence, slope support, and band contact behavior
- Pullback-to-band quality state for continuation resets
- Projected pullback pockets that show where a healthy walk can reset without losing structure
- Failure warning labels when the active walk loses pressure or threatens the basis
- Clean AG Pro panel with walk side, band pressure, pullback quality, and failure risk
- Adjustable panel location, theme, font sizes, label spacing, label clearance, zone projection, and visual density
📊 Visual Design
The default view is designed for a clean public PulseWire chart.
The script displays Bollinger Bands, highlights the active walk track, projects a limited number of pullback zones, and uses event labels with spacing controls. Labels are anchored outside the local candle envelope so they do not disappear inside candles or cover important price action.
The chart remains active enough to be visually informative, but the object count and label density are controlled by default. This keeps the indicator suitable for repeated use across different symbols and timeframes.
🧩 Panel
The AG Pro panel summarizes the current state in four compact rows:
- Walk Side
- Band Pressure
- Pullback Quality
- Failure Risk
Panel location, panel theme, panel font size, label font size, label spacing, label clearance, zone projection, zone opacity, and object limits are all adjustable from the settings menu.
🔎 How This Is Different
Bollinger Walk Quality is not a squeeze map and does not rely on compression logic. It does not use Keltner confirmation, volatility percentile ranking, or width contraction states.
Its lane is continuation after expansion:
- Is price walking the band?
- Which side controls the walk?
- Is the walk supported by pressure and basis slope?
- Is the pullback still healthy?
- Is the walk beginning to fail?
That makes it a separate Bollinger Band workflow from squeeze-focused tools. It is designed for traders who want to evaluate trend continuation rhythm, pullback behavior, and outer-band pressure in a more structured way.
✅ Best Use Cases
- Studying Bollinger Band walk continuation
- Reviewing trend pressure after expansion
- Identifying controlled pullbacks inside active band-walk environments
- Monitoring when a walk is cooling or losing quality
- Comparing upper-band and lower-band pressure across market phases
- Keeping Bollinger Band continuation analysis clean and visual
⚙️ Settings Overview
Engine settings control the Bollinger length, multiplier, source, basis slope lookback, and ATR normalization.
Band Walk Logic settings control the outer-lane depth, minimum walk persistence, minimum walk score, pullback memory, and failure warning threshold.
Visual settings control Bollinger Bands, walk highlight, pullback zones, event labels, label spacing, label count, label offset, label clearance, and label font size.

🏁 Design Intent
Bollinger Walk Quality is designed to make Bollinger Band continuation more readable without turning the chart into a crowded signal dashboard.
The script focuses on structure, persistence, pullback quality, and failure behavior. It gives the chart a clear visual rhythm while keeping the panel concise and the labels controlled.
This makes the script useful as a premium public Bollinger continuation tool and keeps it clearly differentiated from Bollinger squeeze, compression, and volatility expansion maps. Indicator

Volatility Regime Cycle [AGPro Series]Volatility Regime Cycle
🌀 Overview
Volatility Regime Cycle classifies every bar on your chart into one of four distinct volatility phases: Contraction, Expansion, Climax, and Reset. Unlike traditional trend or regime indicators that focus on price direction, this tool maps the cyclical behavior of volatility itself — helping traders recognize whether the market is coiling, releasing, climaxing, or resetting. Each phase is detected through a multi-factor confluence engine and displayed with gradient background shading, transition markers, and S/R-style climax reaction zones. The framework is asset- and timeframe-agnostic: it adapts to crypto, forex, indices, stocks, and commodities on any timeframe.

Most volatility tools present a single metric (ATR, Bollinger Width, VIX proxy). Volatility Regime Cycle differs in structure and intent:
🔸 Phase-based classification, not just a reading — every bar is assigned to a named regime with a trader-actionable bias.
🔸 Multi-factor confluence scoring — five independent volatility inputs (ATR level, BB Width level, BB/KC squeeze, volume z-score, ATR rate-of-change) vote on the active phase. No single factor can dominate.
🔸 Winsorized normalization — outlier events (single extreme bars) do not compress the scale and hide current readings, a common flaw in simple percentile-based tools.
🔸 Climax Reaction Zones — each Climax event is preserved as an S/R-style rectangle with mid-pivot line, creating a memory of past volatility exhaustion levels that often act as future reaction areas.
🔸 Cycle-aware analytics — tracks historical phase durations and estimates current cycle progress based on rolling averages of past phases of the same type.
🔸 Phase-specific Trader Bias — panel translates the current regime into a plain-language bias (Breakout-watch, Momentum-favor, Reversal-risk, Cooldown).
This is not a Wyckoff phase tool, an Elliott counter, or a Dow-theory classifier. It is a pure volatility-cycle mapper, engineered from the ground up to stand apart from both classical cycle indicators and single-metric volatility meters.
🧠 Methodology
The engine runs three layers:
🔹 Factor Layer
• ATR Level — 14-period ATR, winsorized min-max normalized (5%-95% range) over a configurable lookback window.
• BB Width Level — Bollinger Band width as percent of basis, normalized identically.
• Squeeze State — true when Bollinger Bands are contained inside Keltner Channels (classic volatility compression).
• Volume Z-Score — standardized volume relative to its rolling mean and standard deviation.
• ATR Rate-of-Change — momentum of volatility itself.
🔹 Scoring Layer
Each of the four phases has its own scoring formula that weights the five factors differently. For each bar, all four phase scores are calculated in parallel, and the phase with the highest score is the candidate regime for that bar.
🔹 Confirmation Layer
To suppress whipsaw, the candidate phase must persist for a configurable number of bars (default 3) before replacing the active phase. A minimum phase duration lock additionally prevents rapid flips. Climax events include a de-duplication cooldown so that clustered climax bars produce a single marker rather than a cluster of overlapping labels.
Phase transitions are classified as major (Contraction→Expansion breakouts and Climax entries) or minor (all other routine changes). Only major transitions receive labels; minor changes are shown as subtle dotted lines to keep the chart clean.
🔔 Signals & Alerts
The script exposes alerts for every phase transition as well as two high-value composite events:
🔸 Any Phase Transition — fires whenever the active phase changes.
🔸 Entered Contraction / Expansion / Climax / Reset — fires for specific phase entries.
🔸 Contraction → Expansion (Breakout) — coil release event; of interest to breakout traders.
🔸 Climax Entry (Exhaustion Warning) — volatility peak event; of interest to mean-reversion and risk-management traders.
All alerts fire only on confirmed bar close to prevent intra-bar flip-flop.
⚙️ Key Inputs
🔹 Engine Settings — normalization lookback, ATR length, Bollinger/Keltner length and multipliers, volume z-score length, ATR rate-of-change length, confirmation bars, minimum phase duration.
🔹 Phase Thresholds — low volatility level, high volatility level, climax volatility gate, climax volume z-score threshold, climax de-dup cooldown.
🔹 Visuals — toggles for background shading, major transition labels, minor transition lines, volatility ribbon, current phase label.
🔹 S/R Zones — climax zones toggle, breakout zones toggle, maximum active zones, zone initial length, zone range lookback.
🔹 Panel — show/hide, location, Dark/Light theme, font size.
🔹 Label Sizing — font size for on-chart labels.
🔹 Alerts — per-event toggles.
📘 How to Use
🔸 Breakout traders: watch for Contraction phase on the panel with Trader Bias showing Breakout-watch. When the phase transitions to Expansion, a coil release is underway and a Breakout label is printed. Optional Breakout Zones can be enabled to preserve the breakout level as a retest reference.
🔸 Momentum / trend traders: ride the Expansion phase while Trader Bias reads Momentum-favor. Phase Duration and Cycle Progress on the panel give a sense of where the current momentum leg sits relative to historical averages.
🔸 Mean-reversion / exhaustion traders: a Climax label with Trader Bias Reversal-risk highlights volatility exhaustion. The Climax Reaction Zone drawn at each climax often behaves as a future reaction level and can be used as confluence with other reversal tools.
🔸 Risk managers: the Reset phase with Trader Bias Cooldown typically signals reduced market conviction and can be used to scale down position size until a new Contraction builds up.
🔸 Multi-timeframe reading: run the script on the higher timeframe for regime context and on the lower timeframe for entry timing.
Hover the panel header to see a statistics tooltip with average durations of each phase over the last completed cycles.
⚠️ Limitations & Transparency
🔹 The script does not predict future prices or issue buy/sell recommendations. It is a classification and context tool.
🔹 Phase detection is inherently lagging because it requires the confirmation window and minimum duration lock. This is a deliberate design choice to suppress whipsaw at the cost of some responsiveness.
🔹 Normalization uses a rolling lookback window; the first lookback bars after loading the script may show compressed or unstable readings while the window fills.
🔹 Cycle Progress is an estimate based on historical phase averages and may exceed 100% when the current phase runs longer than past cycles.
🔹 Climax and Reset scores rely partly on volume; on instruments with unreliable or missing volume feeds, volume-dependent factors will contribute less.
🔹 All visual elements are cosmetic and toggleable; they do not alter the underlying phase logic.

AG Pro Bollinger Bands Squeeze Map [AGPro Series]AG Pro Bollinger Bands Squeeze Map
Overview
AG Pro Bollinger Bands Squeeze Map is a Bollinger-based compression and release mapping tool designed to show how volatility contracts, matures, expands, and sometimes fails directly on price.
Instead of reducing the entire process to a simple binary squeeze dot, this script organizes the behavior into a visual regime map. It tracks when compression is only beginning, when it becomes more meaningful, when it reaches deeper squeeze conditions, and when price transitions into a release phase. It also highlights failed releases and re-compression behavior, which can be useful when an expansion loses follow-through and the market slips back into a tighter volatility regime.
The goal of the script is not to predict the next move in advance, and it is not presented as a standalone trade system. Its purpose is to provide structured context around Bollinger Band compression so the user can evaluate whether the market is still coiling, already expanding, or losing expansion quality after an initial move.
This script is plotted directly on the chart and is built to remain readable without requiring a separate lower panel. The design prioritizes chart-first interpretation, moderate visual hierarchy, and state clarity.
Unique Edge
Many Bollinger squeeze tools stop at a yes/no condition or a single timing marker. This script takes a broader approach.
Its primary difference is that it treats squeeze behavior as a sequence of states rather than as a single event. That means the script does not only ask whether a squeeze exists. It also asks:
- Is compression only building, or is it already active?
- Has the squeeze become deep or mature?
- Did the first release show better or weaker expansion quality?
- Did the move fail and rotate back toward the basis?
- Is the market entering a re-compression phase after release?
This state-based mapping framework is the main distinction of the indicator. The intent is to help the user see volatility structure more clearly, rather than to provide a simplistic breakout label.
What the Script Does
The script combines Bollinger Band structure, normalized band width, width percentile logic, optional Keltner Channel confirmation, and release-state scoring into a single on-chart map.
In practice, the indicator can highlight:
- Building Compression
- Active Squeeze
- Deep Squeeze
- Mature Squeeze
- Up Release
- Down Release
- Failed Release
- Re-Compression
The result is a visual progression from contraction to expansion, with added context about the quality of that transition.
Methodology
1) Bollinger Band Structure
The script begins with a standard Bollinger Band framework built from a basis line and upper/lower deviations. This establishes the primary price envelope used throughout the tool.
2) Normalized Band Width
Raw band width is normalized relative to the basis so that compression can be assessed more consistently across changing price levels.
3) Width Percentile Regime Detection
The script evaluates current band width against a lookback window using percentile rank logic. This allows the user to frame current compression relative to recent history rather than relying only on absolute width values.
4) Optional Keltner Confirmation
An optional Keltner containment component can be used to strengthen squeeze filtering. Depending on the selected mode, the script can use percentile logic, Keltner logic, or a hybrid of both.
5) Compression State Classification
Compression is not handled as one flat condition. The script distinguishes between building compression, active squeeze, deep squeeze, and mature squeeze based on percentile thresholds and persistence.
6) Release Quality Scoring
When price exits a squeeze state, the script evaluates the release using a score that incorporates bar body behavior, close location, width expansion, distance from basis, and wick influence. The output is grouped into quality labels such as Weak, Clean, or Strong.
7) Failed Release Logic
A release is not automatically treated as durable. If the move loses structure and rotates back through the basis within the monitoring window, the script can classify that behavior as a failed release.
8) Re-Compression Detection
After release, markets do not always trend cleanly. Sometimes they compress again. The re-compression logic is included to identify this return into tighter volatility conditions.
Signals and Alerts
The script includes deterministic alert conditions tied to state transitions. These alerts are intended to notify the user when a specific structural condition appears on the chart.
Available alert categories include:
- Active Squeeze
- Deep Squeeze
- Mature Squeeze
- Up Release
- Down Release
- Failed Release
- Re-Compression
These alerts describe indicator states. They are not guarantees of continuation, reversal, or trade outcome.
Visual Design
The indicator is designed to work as an on-chart map rather than as a lower-pane oscillator.
The visual structure includes:
- Bollinger Bands
- Optional Keltner Channel
- Compression and release zone fills
- State labels
- Compact information panel
The zone rendering is intentionally state-weighted. More important states such as release, deeper squeeze regimes, and failure/re-compression conditions receive stronger visual emphasis, while lower-priority compression states can remain lighter to reduce chart clutter.
Key Inputs
The script includes adjustable controls for:
- Detection mode
- Bollinger Band length and multiplier
- Percentile lookback and thresholds
- Keltner Channel length and ATR multiplier
- Minimum bar requirements for deeper squeeze states
- Release persistence window
- Failure and re-compression windows
- Label size and offset
- Band and channel visibility
- Map intensity
- Theme selection
- Panel position and font size
These controls allow the user to adapt the script to different assets, volatility profiles, and charting preferences.
How to Interpret It
A practical way to read the script is to think in phases.
When the indicator shows Building Compression, volatility is tightening but may not yet be at a stronger squeeze threshold.
When the indicator shifts into Active, Deep, or Mature squeeze conditions, compression is becoming more statistically notable relative to the selected lookback.
When a release label appears, the script is identifying a transition out of compression. The associated quality label is meant to describe the character of that release, not to certify future follow-through.
If a failed release appears, the script is signaling that the initial expansion did not maintain structure within the observation window.
If re-compression appears, the market may be moving from expansion back into tighter volatility conditions.
This framework is often more useful for context and filtering than for isolated signal-chasing.
Use Cases
This tool may be useful for users who want to:
- study volatility contraction and expansion directly on price
- compare weaker and cleaner releases after squeeze conditions
- identify failed expansion behavior
- add context to existing discretionary workflows
- use squeeze structure as a filter rather than a complete decision engine
It can also be used alongside structure analysis, trend analysis, support/resistance mapping, or broader workflow-based chart review.
Limitations and Transparency
This script is a volatility-structure tool. It is not a prediction engine and does not forecast future price direction with certainty.
Several important limitations should be kept in mind:
- A squeeze can resolve in either direction.
- A strong-looking release can still fail.
- A failed release does not automatically imply a reversal trend.
- Different symbols and timeframes may require different threshold settings.
- Very noisy instruments may produce more frequent state changes.
Because of this, the script should be interpreted as a structured context layer rather than as a standalone execution model.
Open-source access does not remove the need for user judgment. Inputs still need to be reviewed and adjusted where appropriate for the instrument and timeframe being studied.
Risk Disclosure
This indicator is for chart analysis and educational use. It does not provide financial, investment, legal, or tax advice.
Any decision based on this script remains the responsibility of the user. Markets can behave unpredictably, and no indicator can eliminate risk. Users should evaluate signals, states, and visual conditions in the context of their own methodology, time horizon, and risk framework. Indicator

CUSUM Volatility BreakoutCUSUM Volatility Breakout A statistical trend-detection and volatility-breakout indicator that identifies subtle momentum shifts earlier than traditional tools.
OVERVIEW
The CUSUM control chart is a statistical tool designed to detect small, gradual shifts from a target value. In trading, it helps identify the early stages of a trend, giving traders a heads-up before momentum becomes obvious on standard price charts. By spotting these subtle movements, the CUSUM Volatility Breakout indicator (CUSUM VB) can highlight potential breakout opportunities earlier than traditional indicators. In other words, a statistical trend detection & breakout indicator.
Copyright © 2025 CoinOperator
HOW IT WORKS
CUSUM VB uses a combination of differenced price series, volume normalization, and dynamic control limits:
CUSUM Principle: Tracks cumulative deviations of price from a zero reference. Signals occur when cumulative deviations exceed a control limit shown on the chart and clears any enabled filters.
Adaptive Volatility: H adjusts automatically based on short- vs long-term ATR ratios, allowing faster detection during volatile periods and reduced false signals in calm markets.
Volume Weighting (optional): Amplifies price CUSUM values during high-volume bars to prioritize market participation strength.
ATR Confirmation (optional): Ensures breakouts are accompanied by expanded volatility.
Bollinger Band Squeeze Integration (optional): Confirms trend breakouts by detecting volatility contraction and release shown on the chart as triangles.
Signals:
Arrows on the price chart mark the bars where trades are actually filled, based on conditions detected on the prior signal bar.
Long Entry: Confirmed positive CUSUM breach (price & volume) with BB breakout (signal bar).
Short Entry: Confirmed negative CUSUM breach (price & volume) with BB breakout (signal bar).
Exit Signals: Triggered automatically by opposite-side signals.
Alerts, when created, fire on the bars where fills occur.
CHART COMPONENTS
CUSUM Upper Price (CU Price) and CUSUM Lower Price (CL Price) are green/red circles for confirmed signals.
● Rapid upward accumulation of CU Price indicates a developing bullish trend.
● Rapid downward accumulation of CL Price indicates a developing bearish trend.
Decision/Control limits (UCL/LCL, red)
Zero line (reference for the differenced price series baseline)
Optional BB triangles and volume CUSUM
SETUP AND CONFIGURATION
Differenced Price Series
Differenced Price Length and Lag
Increase differencing lag or window length → Increases variance of residuals → Wider control limits (UCL/LCL) → Slower to trigger.
Decrease lag or window → Tighter limits, more responsive to short-term regime shifts.
CUSUM Parameters
Volume-Weighted CUSUM
NOTE : Uses price length if 'Confirm Price with Volume' is disabled, otherwise will use volume length.
Amplifies CUSUM price responses during high-volume bars and reduces them during low-volume bars. This links trend detection to market participation strength.
Volume-Weighted CUSUM doesn’t replace price confirmation with volume; it modulates it by volume intensity, amplifying price signals when participation is strong and suppressing them when weak.
Recommended when analyzing assets with consistent volume patterns (e.g., stocks, major futures).
Disable for low-liquidity or irregular-volume instruments (e.g., crypto pairs, small-cap stocks).
ATR Confirmation
Enable this feature to confirm CUSUM signals only when price deviations are accompanied by higher-than-normal volatility. The indicator compares current ATR to a smoothed ATR to detect volatility expansion. This helps distinguish true breakouts from low-volatility noise and reduces false signals during quiet periods.
Adjust the ATR lookback length, smoothing length, and expansion factor to control sensitivity. Rule of thumb:
ATR Length ≈ 0.5 × differenced price length to 1.5 × differenced price length gives balanced sensitivity.
ATR Smoothing 5–10 bars.
ATR Expansion 5% to 50%.
CUSUM Input Mode
Select how CUSUM processes differenced price and log-normalized volume — either directly (Txfrm Data) or as deviations from a short-term EMA baseline (Residuals):
Txfrm Data = transformed input: differenced price & log-normalized volume as input for CUSUM (larger swings, more frequent control limit breaches)
Residuals = deviation from short-term EMA baseline (smaller swings, fewer control limit breaches, but higher signal quality).
Residual EMA Length: Defines how quickly the residual baseline adapts to recent differenced price moves. Shorter = more reactive; longer = smoother baseline. Keep EMA length moderate; over-smoothing can distort timing.
Control Sensitivity (K)
Increase K → Less sensitive → CUSUM accumulates slower → Fewer signals, captures only major trends.
Decrease K → More sensitive → CUSUM accumulates faster → More signals, captures minor swings too.
Reset Mode : Method of resetting CUSUM values.
Immediate Reset: Reset both immediately after any signal breach. Traditional SPC.
Opposite-Side Reset: Reset only the opposite side when a valid signal fires. Best for ongoing trend tracking.
Decay Reset: Gradually reduce CUSUM values toward zero with a decay factor each bar. Maintains trend memory but allows slow “forgetting.”
Threshold Reset: Reset only if CUSUM returns below a small threshold (10 % of H). Filters noise without full wipe.
No Reset / Continuous: Never reset; instead track running totals. Long-term cumulative bias measurement.
Conflict Handling : Method of handling conflicting signals.
Ignore Both: Discards both when overlap occurs.
Prioritize Latest: Chooses the direction implied by the most recent close.
Prioritize Stronger: Compares absolute magnitudes of CU Price vs CL Price.
Average Resolve: Looks at the difference; small overlap → ignore, otherwise pick direction by sign.
Sequential Confirm: Requires N consecutive same-direction signals before confirmation.
Volume Parameters (Optional)
Amplification Factor
Adjusts volume sensitivity and effectively rescales the log series of volume to a comparable magnitude with price changes.
Since price and volume are normalized in a compatible way, the amplification factor is used instead of independent K and H values for volume.
Bollinger Bands (Optional)
Lookback Synchronization
BB Lookback (for CUSUM): Number of bars that define a window for the BB signal to look back for the CUSUM signal.
CUSUM Lookback (for BB): Number of bars that define a window for the CUSUM signal to look back for the BB signal.
Both can be enabled for stricter alignment.
Relationship Between K, H, ARL₀ and ARL₁
H (max) is usually the only H you need to adjust. With everything else being constant, increasing either K or H (max) generally increases both ARL₀ and ARL₁ : higher thresholds reduce false alarms but slow detection, and lower thresholds do the opposite.
Increase Min Target ARL ratio →
ARL₀ increases (safer, fewer false alarms)
ARL₁ decreases or stays small (faster detection)
Control limits slightly expand to achieve separation
Strategy becomes more selective and stable
Decrease Min Target ARL ratio →
ARL₀ decreases (more false alarms tolerated)
ARL₁ increases (slower detection tolerated)
Control limits tighten
Strategy becomes more sensitive but lower quality
The ARL Ratio of ARL₀ / ARL₁ is typically between 3 and 8. This implies you want your ARL₀ (false-alarm interval) ≈ 'Min Target ARL ratio' × differenced price length window.
Example:
"Min Target ARL ratio = 4.0"
⇒ implies you want your ARL₀ (false-alarm interval) ≈ 4 × differenced price length.
Assume price length = 50 (typical differencing window).
ARL ratio = 4.0 → target ARL = 4 × 50 = 200 bars.
● On a 6-hour chart (≈4 bars/day) → ~50 days between expected false alarms (on average).
● On a daily chart → ~200 trading days between false alarms (very conservative).
ARL ratio = 8.0 → target ARL = 400 bars → twice as infrequent signals vs ratio=4.
ARL ratio = 2.0 → target ARL = 100 bars → about half the inter-signal interval.
Another way to think about it: probability of a false alarm on any bar ≈ 1 / target ARL. If you want ~1% of bars producing alarms, target ARL ≈ 100.
QUICK START
Start with the defaults.
Set price series → length/order/lag
Configure CUSUM thresholds → K, H min/max
1. Adjust the price differencing lag/window.
2. Verify that it captures real price inflection points without overreacting to bar noise.
Enable optional filters → Volume, ATR, BB
The optional Bollinger Bands squeeze usually works best if used with CUSUM Input Mode = Txfrm Data.
Monitor CUSUM chart → CU Price, CL Price, thresholds, zero line
Act on signals → data window / chart triangles
Adjust sensitivity → H (max), K, lengths
Monitor ARL ratio and CUSUM behavior for fine-tuning
Note : When you’ve finalized the length, lag, and order of the Price Difference, as well as the Ln(Vol) Series of “Confirm Price with Volume” if enabled, then pass both through the Augmented Dickey–Fuller (ADF) mean reversion test to ensure they are stationary, i.e., mean reverting. You can find a ready-made indicator for such use at . Many thanks to tbtkg for this indicator.

John Bollinger's Bollinger BandsJapanese below / 日本語説明は下記
This indicator replicates how John Bollinger, the inventor of Bollinger Bands, uses Bollinger Bands, displaying Bollinger Bands, %B and Bandwidth in one indicator with alerts and signals.
Bollinger Bands is created by John Bollinger in 1980s who is an American financial trader and analyst. He introduced %B and Bandwidth 30 years later.
🟦 What's different from other Bollinger Bands indicator?
Unlike the default Bollinger Bands or other custom Bollinger Bands indicators on PulseWire, this indicator enables to display three Bollinger Bands tools into a single indicator with signals and alerts capability.
You can plot the classic Bollinger Bands together with either %B or Bandwidth or three tools altogether which requires the specific setting(see below settings).
This makes it easy to quantitatively monitor volatility changes and price position in relation to Bollinger Bands in one place.
🟦 Features:
Plots Bollinger Bands (Upper, Basis, Lower) with fill between bands.
Option to display %B or Bandwidth with Bollinger Bands.
Plots highest and lowest Bandwidth levels over a customizable lookback period.
Adds visual markers when Bandwidth reaches its highest (Bulge) or lowest (Squeeze) value.
Includes ready-to-use alert conditions for Bulge and Squeeze events.
📈Chart
Green triangles and red triangles in the bottom chart mark Bulges and Squeezes respectively.
🟦 Settings:
Length: Number of bars used for Bollinger Band middleline calculation.
Basis MA Type: Choose SMA, EMA, SMMA (RMA), WMA, or VWMA for the midline.
StdDev: Standard deviation multiplier (default = 2.0).
Option: Select "Bandwidth" or "%B" (add the indicator twice if you want to display both).
Period for Squeeze and Bulge: Lookback period for detecting the highest and lowest Bandwidth levels.(default = 125 as specified by John Bollinger )
Style Settings: Colors, line thickness, and transparency can be customized.
📈Chart
The chart below shows an example of three Bollinger Bands tools: Bollinger Band, %B and Bandwidth are in display.
To do this, you need to add this indicator TWICE where you select %B from Option in the first addition of this indicator and Bandwidth from Option in the second addition.
🟦 Usage:
🟠Monitor Volatility:
Watch Bandwidth values to spot volatility contractions (Squeeze) and expansions (Bulge) that often precede strong price moves.
John Bollinger defines Squeeze and Bulge as follows;
Squeeze:
The lowest bandwidth in the past 125 period, where trend is born.
Bulge:
The highest bandwidth in the past 125 period where trend is going to die.
According to John Bollinger, this 125 period can be used in any timeframe.
📈Chart1
Example of Squeeze
You can see uptrends start after squeeze(red triangles)
📈Chart2
Example of Bulge
You can see the trend reversal from downtrend to uptrends at the bulge(green triangles)
📈Chart3
Bulge DOES NOT NECESSARILY mean the beginning of a trend in opposite direction.
For example, you can see a bulge happening in the right side of the chart where green triangles are marked. Nevertheless, uptrend still continues after the bulge.
In this case, the bulge marks the beginning of a consolidation which lead to the continuation of the trend. It means that a phase of the trend highlighted in the light blue box came to an end.
Note: light blue box is not drawn by the indicator.
Like other technical analysis methods or tools, these setups do not guarantee birth of new trends and trend reversals. Traders should be carefully observing these setups along with other factors for making decisions.
🟠Track Price Position:
Use %B to see where price is located in relation to the Bollinger Bands.
If %B is close to 1, the price is near upper band while %B is close to 0, the price is near lower band.
🟠Set Alerts:
Receive alerts when Bandwidth hits highest and lowest values of bandwidth, helping you prepare for potential breakout, ending of trends and trend reversal opportunities.
🟠Combine with Other Tools:
This indicator would work best when combined with price action, trend analysis, or
market environmental analysis.

このインジケーターはボリンジャーバンドの考案者であるジョン・ボリンジャー氏が提唱するボリンジャーバンドの使い方を再現するために、ボリンジャーバンド、%B、バンドウィズ(Bandwidth) の3つを1つのインジケーターで表示可能にしたものです。シグナルやアラートにも対応しています。
ボリンジャーバンドは1980年代にアメリカ人トレーダー兼アナリストのジョン・ボリンジャー氏によって開発されました。彼はその30年後に%Bとバンドウィズを導入しました。
🟦 他のボリンジャーバンドとの違い
PulseWire標準のボリンジャーバンドや他のボリンジャーバンドとは異なり、このインジケーターでは3つのボリンジャーバンドツールを1つのインジケーターで表示し、シグナルやアラート機能も利用できるようになっています。
一般的に知られている通常のボリンジャーバンドに加え、%Bやバンドウィズを組み合わせて表示でき、設定次第では3つすべてを同時にモニターすることも可能です。これにより、価格とボリンジャーバンドの位置関係とボラティリティ変化をひと目で、かつ定量的に把握することができます。
🟦 機能:
ボリンジャーバンド（アッパーバンド・基準線・ロワーバンド）を描画し、バンド間を塗りつぶし表示。
オプションで%Bまたはバンドウィズを追加表示可能。
バンドウィズの最高値・最安値を、任意の期間で検出して表示。
バンドウィズが指定期間の最高値（バルジ※）または最安値（スクイーズ）に達した際にシグナルを表示。
※バルジは一般的にボリンジャーバンドで用いられるエクスパンションとほぼ同じ意味ですが、定義が異なります。(下記参照)
バルジおよびスクイーズ発生時のアラート設定が可能。
📈 チャート例
下記チャートの緑の三角と赤の三角は、それぞれバルジとスクイーズを示しています。
🟦 設定:
Length: ボリンジャーバンドの基準線計算に使う期間。
Basis MA Type: SMA, EMA, SMMA (RMA), WMA, VWMAから選択可能。
StdDev: 標準偏差の乗数（デフォルト2.0）。
Option: 「Bandwidth」または「%B」を選択（両方表示するにはこのインジケーターを2回追加）。
Period for Squeeze and Bulge: Bandwidthの最高値・最安値を検出する期間（デフォルトはジョン・ボリンジャー氏が推奨する125）。
Style Settings: 色、線の太さ、透明度などをカスタマイズ可能。
📈 チャート例
下のチャートは「ボリンジャーバンド」「%B」「バンドウィズ」の3つを同時に表示した例です。
この場合、インジケーターを2回追加し、最初に追加した方ではOptionを「%B」に、次に追加した方では「Bandwidth」を選択します。
🟦 使い方:
🟠 ボラティリティを監視する:
バンドウィズの値を見ることで、価格変動の収縮（スクイーズ）や拡大（バルジ）を確認できます。
これらはしばしば強い値動きの前兆となります。
ジョン・ボリンジャー氏はスクイーズとバルジを次のように定義しています：
スクイーズ: 過去125期間の中で最も低いバンドウィズ→ 新しいトレンドが生まれる場所。
バルジ: 過去125期間の中で最も高いバンドウィズ → トレンドが終わりを迎える場所。
この「125期間」はどのタイムフレームでも利用可能とされています。
📈 チャート1
スクイーズの例
赤い三角のスクイーズの後に上昇トレンドが始まっているのが確認できます。
📈 チャート2
バルジの例
緑の三角のバルジの箇所で下降トレンドから上昇トレンドへの反転が見られます。
📈 チャート3
バルジが必ずしも反転を意味しない例
下記のチャート右側の緑の三角で示されたバルジの後も、上昇トレンドが継続しています。
この場合、バルジは反転ではなく「トレンド一時的な調整（レンジ入り）」を示しており、結果的に上昇トレンドが継続しています。
この場合、バルジは水色のボックスで示されたトレンドのフェーズの終わりを示しています。
※水色のボックスはインジケーターが描画したものではありません。
また、他のテクニカル分析と同様に、これらのセットアップは必ず新しいトレンドの発生やトレンド転換を保証するものではありません。トレーダーは他の要素も考慮し、慎重に意思決定する必要があります。
🟠 価格とボリンジャーバンドの位置関係を確認する:
%Bを利用すれば、価格がバンドのどこに位置しているかを簡単に把握できます。
%Bが1に近ければ価格はアッパーバンド付近、0に近ければロワーバンド付近にあります。
🟠 アラートを設定する:
バンドウィズが一定期間の最高値または最安値に到達した際にアラートを設定することで、ブレイクアウトやトレンド終了、反転の可能性に備えることができます。
🟠 他のツールと組み合わせる:
このインジケーターは、プライスアクション、トレンド分析、環境認識などと組み合わせて活用すると最も効果的です。

Moving Volume-Weighted Avg Price, % Channel, BBsThis script includes:
- Moving Volume-Weighted Average Price line.
- User-defined % band above and below, very useful for "breakout" signals, and mentally adjusting to the magnitude of price swings when viewing an automatic scale on the price axis.
- Volume-Weighted Bollinger Bands, which are more sensitive to volume.
More detail:
- This is like TV's basic VWAP in concept, except the major flaw in that is that it has reset periods that you can't override, and the volume is cumulative until the next hard reset. The 'reset' is OK for securities trading, that resets every day anyway. But not for crypto - and not if/when securities trading goes 24/7. Also, the denominator accumulating over the entire period is also *not* OK, because then what is shown means something different as the day progresses - which kind of makes it useless. In other words, it starts out very sensitive to volume, and gets progressively more numb to it as they day progresses, and starts flattening out.
- This fixes both problems, by using a user-definable moving window for the average. Essentially combining SMA with volume-weighting.
- You may also find an invaluable trading aid, in the % bands above and below.
- What can optionally be shown is standard deviation bands, aka Bollinger bands. The advantage over regular BB is that it's volume-weighted. Since it is already calculated on a moving average, the period for the standard deviation has been shortened by default, and the magnitude increased, to better approximate regular Bollinger Bands - but it's still more responsive to volume.

MTF Signal XpertMTF Signal Xpert – Detailed Description
Overview:
MTF Signal Xpert is a proprietary, open‑source trading signal indicator that fuses multiple technical analysis methods into one cohesive strategy. Developed after rigorous backtesting and extensive research, this advanced tool is designed to deliver clear BUY and SELL signals by analyzing trend, momentum, and volatility across various timeframes. Its integrated approach not only enhances signal reliability but also incorporates dynamic risk management, helping traders protect their capital while navigating complex market conditions.
Detailed Explanation of How It Works:
Trend Detection via Moving Averages
Dual Moving Averages:
MTF Signal Xpert computes two moving averages—a fast MA and a slow MA—with the flexibility to choose from Simple (SMA), Exponential (EMA), or Hull (HMA) methods. This dual-MA system helps identify the prevailing market trend by contrasting short-term momentum with longer-term trends.
Crossover Logic:
A BUY signal is initiated when the fast MA crosses above the slow MA, coupled with the condition that the current price is above the lower Bollinger Band. This suggests that the market may be emerging from a lower price region. Conversely, a SELL signal is generated when the fast MA crosses below the slow MA and the price is below the upper Bollinger Band, indicating potential bearish pressure.
Recent Crossover Confirmation:
To ensure that signals reflect current market dynamics, the script tracks the number of bars since the moving average crossover event. Only crossovers that occur within a user-defined “candle confirmation” period are considered, which helps filter out outdated signals and improves overall signal accuracy.
Volatility and Price Extremes with Bollinger Bands
Calculation of Bands:
Bollinger Bands are calculated using a 20‑period simple moving average as the central basis, with the upper and lower bands derived from a standard deviation multiplier. This creates dynamic boundaries that adjust according to recent market volatility.
Signal Reinforcement:
For BUY signals, the condition that the price is above the lower Bollinger Band suggests an undervalued market condition, while for SELL signals, the price falling below the upper Bollinger Band reinforces the bearish bias. This volatility context adds depth to the moving average crossover signals.
Momentum Confirmation Using Multiple Oscillators
RSI (Relative Strength Index):
The RSI is computed over 14 periods to determine if the market is in an overbought or oversold state. Only readings within an optimal range (defined by user inputs) validate the signal, ensuring that entries are made during balanced conditions.
MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence):
The MACD line is compared with its signal line to assess momentum. A bullish scenario is confirmed when the MACD line is above the signal line, while a bearish scenario is indicated when it is below, thus adding another layer of confirmation.
Awesome Oscillator (AO):
The AO measures the difference between short-term and long-term simple moving averages of the median price. Positive AO values support BUY signals, while negative values back SELL signals, offering additional momentum insight.
ADX (Average Directional Index):
The ADX quantifies trend strength. MTF Signal Xpert only considers signals when the ADX value exceeds a specified threshold, ensuring that trades are taken in strongly trending markets.
Optional Stochastic Oscillator:
An optional stochastic oscillator filter can be enabled to further refine signals. It checks for overbought conditions (supporting SELL signals) or oversold conditions (supporting BUY signals), thus reducing ambiguity.
Multi-Timeframe Verification
Higher Timeframe Filter:
To align short-term signals with broader market trends, the script calculates an EMA on a higher timeframe as specified by the user. This multi-timeframe approach helps ensure that signals on the primary chart are consistent with the overall trend, thereby reducing false signals.
Dynamic Risk Management with ATR
ATR-Based Calculations:
The Average True Range (ATR) is used to measure current market volatility. This value is multiplied by a user-defined factor to dynamically determine stop loss (SL) and take profit (TP) levels, adapting to changing market conditions.
Visual SL/TP Markers:
The calculated SL and TP levels are plotted on the chart as distinct colored dots, enabling traders to quickly identify recommended exit points.
Optional Trailing Stop:
An optional trailing stop feature is available, which adjusts the stop loss as the trade moves favorably, helping to lock in profits while protecting against sudden reversals.
Risk/Reward Ratio Calculation:
MTF Signal Xpert computes a risk/reward ratio based on the dynamic SL and TP levels. This quantitative measure allows traders to assess whether the potential reward justifies the risk associated with a trade.
Condition Weighting and Signal Scoring
Binary Condition Checks:
Each technical condition—ranging from moving average crossovers, Bollinger Band positioning, and RSI range to MACD, AO, ADX, and volume filters—is assigned a binary score (1 if met, 0 if not).
Cumulative Scoring:
These individual scores are summed to generate cumulative bullish and bearish scores, quantifying the overall strength of the signal and providing traders with an objective measure of its viability.
Detailed Signal Explanation:
A comprehensive explanation string is generated, outlining which conditions contributed to the current BUY or SELL signal. This explanation is displayed on an on‑chart dashboard, offering transparency and clarity into the signal generation process.
On-Chart Visualizations and Debug Information
Chart Elements:
The indicator plots all key components—moving averages, Bollinger Bands, SL and TP markers—directly on the chart, providing a clear visual framework for understanding market conditions.
Combined Dashboard:
A dedicated dashboard displays key metrics such as RSI, ADX, and the bullish/bearish scores, alongside a detailed explanation of the current signal. This consolidated view allows traders to quickly grasp the underlying logic.
Debug Table (Optional):
For advanced users, an optional debug table is available. This table breaks down each individual condition, indicating which criteria were met or not met, thus aiding in further analysis and strategy refinement.
Mashup Justification and Originality
MTF Signal Xpert is more than just an aggregation of existing indicators—it is an original synthesis designed to address real-world trading complexities. Here’s how its components work together:
Integrated Trend, Volatility, and Momentum Analysis:
By combining moving averages, Bollinger Bands, and multiple oscillators (RSI, MACD, AO, ADX, and an optional stochastic), the indicator captures diverse market dynamics. Each component reinforces the others, reducing noise and filtering out false signals.
Multi-Timeframe Analysis:
The inclusion of a higher timeframe filter aligns short-term signals with longer-term trends, enhancing overall reliability and reducing the potential for contradictory signals.
Adaptive Risk Management:
Dynamic stop loss and take profit levels, determined using ATR, ensure that the risk management strategy adapts to current market conditions. The optional trailing stop further refines this approach, protecting profits as the market evolves.
Quantitative Signal Scoring:
The condition weighting system provides an objective measure of signal strength, giving traders clear insight into how each technical component contributes to the final decision.
How to Use MTF Signal Xpert:
Input Customization:

E9 Bollinger RangeThe E9 Bollinger Range is a technical trading tool that leverages Bollinger Bands to track volatility and price deviations, along with additional trend filtering via EMAs.
The script visually enhances price action with a combination of trend-filtering EMAs, bar colouring for trend direction, signals to indicate potential buy and sell points based on price extension and engulfing patterns.
Here’s a breakdown of its key components:
Bollinger Bands: The strategy plots multiple Bollinger Band deviations to create different price levels. The furthest deviation bands act as warning signs for traders when price extends significantly, signaling potential overbought or oversold conditions.
Bar Colouring: Visual bar colouring is applied to clearly indicate trend direction: green bars for an uptrend and red bars for a downtrend.
EMA Filtering: Two EMAs (50 and 200) are used to help filter out false signals, giving traders a better sense of the underlying trend.
This combination of signals, visual elements, and trend filtering provides traders with a systematic approach to identifying price deviations and taking advantage of market corrections.
Brief History of Bollinger Bands
Bollinger Bands were developed by John Bollinger in the early 1980s as a tool to measure price volatility in financial markets. The bands consist of a moving average (typically 20 periods) with upper and lower bands placed two standard deviations away. These bands expand and contract based on market volatility, offering traders a visual representation of price extremes and potential reversal zones.
John Bollinger’s work revolutionized technical analysis by incorporating volatility into trend detection. His bands remain widely used across markets, including stocks, commodities, and cryptocurrencies. With the ability to highlight overbought and oversold conditions, Bollinger Bands have become a staple in many trading strategies. Indicator
3 Fib EMAs To Scalp Them AllThe "3 Fib EMAs To Scalp Them All" was made in order to clear up when we should look for shorts, longs, or walk away. Also it can alert you when a trend starts, or when there is a possible reversal. I use it for scalping/day trading in 5m-1h timeframes.
1. EMAs: By default, the indicator uses Fibonacci numbers (21, 55, 233), but you can change them.
2. Color Changes: The color of the Micro EMA line changes depending on its relation to the Mid and Macro EMAs.
When Micro EMA < Mid < Macro EMA, it turns red, indicating a potential bearish trend - that's when you should look for shorts
When Micro EMA > Mid > Macro EMA, it turns green, indicating a potential bullish trend - that's when you should look for longs
A white Micro EMA is when you need to take some rest, enjoy your coffee, and avoid overtrading.
3. Signals: The indicator provides visual signals in the form of diamonds and crosses and corresponding alert signals.
A red diamond above the bar signals a potential beginning of a downtrend
A red cross above the bar signals the end of the downtrend and can be used as a signal for a possible reversal up/breakout.
A green diamond below the bar signals a potential beginning of a downtrend,
A green cross below the bar signals the end of the uptrend and can be used as a signal for a possible reversal down/breakout.
4. Alerts: For algo traders and people who prefer to stay away from the monitor... there are alerts for every signal.
Friendly note: Don't blindly follow the signals for your long and short entries. The signals only pop up when the EMA cross value gets a confirmation. A smart move would be to wait for a retracement to the EMA line and use momentum indicators like market cipher B to pinpoint those ideal entry points. Indicator
