Price = ohlc4
Buy when Price > upper BB
Sell when Price < lower BB
V+ Setups Biased to Bollinger Band TrendThis uses the R/G and G/R sweep + volume setup to find trend continuation trades. You have the options to have a filter that requires it to happen the the buy/sell/middle(bias) bands only, to require it to sweep a high/low - but by default this looksback at the slope of the last X bars on the bollinger band to determine a bias to only show buys/sells that support that slopes direction.
Final Breakout Signal📌 Final Breakout Signal – BBW + %B + MA + Ichimoku + Volume
This indicator detects powerful breakout setups using a strict combination of:
BBW (Bollinger Band Width ≤ 30): Signals low volatility squeeze.
%B ≥ 1.0: Price breaking the upper band.
Price > BB 120-1 Upper Band: Confirms breakout strength.
MA Structure: Close must be above the 500-MA, with 250-MA recently below both 200 and 550 for uptrend validation.
Ichimoku Span B Break: Close is above Ichimoku Span B.
Volume Surge: Current volume > 150% of the 5-bar average.
Price Momentum: Daily price increase ≥ 3%.
BB 20-2 Upper > BB 60-1 Upper: Confirms tighter short-term squeeze resolution.

BBVOL SwiftEdgeBBVOL SwiftEdge – Precision Scalping with Volume and Trend Filtering
Optimized for scalping and short-term trading on fast-moving markets (e.g., 1-minute charts), BBVOL SwiftEdge combines Bollinger Bands, Heikin Ashi smoothing, volume momentum, and EMA trend alignment to deliver actionable buy/sell signals with visual trend cues. Ideal for forex, crypto, and stocks.
What Makes BBVOL SwiftEdge Unique?
Unlike traditional Bollinger Bands scripts that focus solely on price volatility, BBVOL SwiftEdge enhances signal precision by:
Using Heikin Ashi to filter out noise and confirm trend direction, reducing false signals in choppy markets.
Incorporating volume analysis to ensure signals align with significant buying or selling pressure (customizable thresholds).
Adding an EMA overlay to keep trades in sync with the short-term trend.
Coloring candlesticks (green for bullish, red for bearish, purple for consolidation) to visually highlight market conditions at a glance.
How Does It Work?
Buy Signal: Triggers when price crosses above the lower Bollinger Band, Heikin Ashi shows bullish momentum (close > open), buy volume exceeds your set threshold (default 30%), and price is above the EMA. A green triangle appears below the candle.
Sell Signal: Triggers when price crosses below the upper Bollinger Band, Heikin Ashi turns bearish (close < open), sell volume exceeds the threshold (default 30%), and price is below the EMA. A red triangle appears above the candle.
Trend Visualization: Candles turn green when price is significantly above the Bollinger Bands’ basis (indicating a bullish trend), red when below (bearish trend), or purple when near the basis (consolidation), based on a customizable threshold (default 10% of BB width).
Risk Management: Each signal calculates a stop-loss (10% beyond the opposite band) and take-profit (opposite band), plotted for reference.
How to Use It
Timeframe: Best on 1-minute to 5-minute charts for scalping; test higher timeframes for swing trading.
Markets: Works well in volatile markets like forex pairs (e.g., EUR/USD), crypto (e.g., BTC/USD), or liquid stocks.
Customization: Adjust Bollinger Bands length (default 10), multiplier (default 1.2), volume thresholds (default 30%), EMA length (default 3), and consolidation threshold (default 0.1%) to match your strategy.
Interpretation: Look for green/red triangles as entry signals, confirmed by candle colors. Purple candles suggest caution—wait for a breakout. Use stop-loss/take-profit levels for trade management.
Underlying Concepts
Bollinger Bands: Measures volatility and identifies overbought/oversold zones.
Heikin Ashi: Smooths price action to emphasize trend direction.
Volume Momentum: Calculates cumulative buy/sell volume percentages to confirm market strength (e.g., buyVolPercent = buyVolume / totalVolume * 100).
EMA: A fast-moving average (default length 3) ensures signals align with the immediate trend.
Chart Setup
The chart displays Bollinger Bands (orange), Heikin Ashi close (green circles), EMA (purple), and volume-scaled lines (lime/red). Signals are marked with triangles, and candle colors reflect trend state. Keep the chart clean by focusing on these outputs for clarity.
Bollinger Bands + Supertrend by XoediacBollinger Bands with Supertrend Indicator by Xeodiac
This script combines two powerful technical analysis tools — Bollinger Bands and the Supertrend Indicator — to provide traders with a comprehensive view of market volatility and trend direction.
Bollinger Bands: These bands consist of a middle band (the simple moving average, or SMA) and two outer bands (calculated as standard deviations away from the middle). The upper and lower bands act as dynamic support and resistance levels, expanding during high volatility and contracting during low volatility.
Supertrend Indicator: The Supertrend is a trend-following indicator that uses the Average True Range (ATR) to calculate an adaptive threshold, indicating whether the market is in an uptrend or downtrend. The indicator changes color based on the trend direction, providing clear buy and sell signals.
Features of the Script:
Volatility-based Signals : By incorporating the Bollinger Bands, the script adjusts to market volatility. Traders can identify periods of high and low volatility, helping to gauge potential price breakouts or reversals.
Trend Confirmation: The Supertrend helps confirm the trend direction, ensuring that trades are aligned with the overall market trend. Green Supertrend signals indicate an uptrend, while red signals indicate a downtrend.
Enhanced Decision-making: By using both indicators together, traders can make more informed decisions. For instance, buying opportunities are validated when the price is near the lower Bollinger Band, and the Supertrend is in a bullish phase, and vice versa for selling.
Customizable Parameters: The script allows users to customize the settings for both the Bollinger Bands and the Supertrend, enabling fine-tuning based on trading preferences or market conditions.
Ideal Use Cases:
Identifying trend reversals or continuation patterns in trending markets.
Monitoring price action during periods of low volatility for breakout opportunities.
Filtering out false signals by combining volatility with trend strength.
Full Spectrum Delta BandsI created the Full Spectrum Delta Bands (FullSpec ΔBB) to go beyond traditional Bollinger Bands by incorporating both OHLC (Open, High, Low, Close) and Close-based data into the calculations. Instead of relying solely on closing prices, this indicator evaluates deviations from the complete bar range (OHLC), offering a more accurate view of market behavior.
A key feature is the Delta Flip, which highlights shifts between OHLC and Close-based bands. These flips are visually marked with color changes, signaling potential trend reversals, breakout zones, or volatility shifts. Traders can use these moments as inflection points to refine their entry and exit strategies.
The indicator also supports customizable sensitivity and deviation multiplier settings, allowing it to adapt to different trading styles and timeframes. Lower deviation values (e.g., 1σ or 1.5σ) are ideal for scalping on shorter timeframes like 5-min or 15-min charts, while higher values (e.g., 2.5σ or 3σ) are better suited for long-term trend analysis on weekly or monthly charts. The standard deviation multiplier fine-tunes the upper and lower bands to match specific trading goals and market conditions.
I designed Full Spectrum Delta Bands to provide deeper insights and a clearer view of market dynamics compared to traditional Bollinger Bands. Whether you’re a scalper, swing trader, or long-term investor, this tool helps you make informed and confident trading decisions.

.........
This indicator is a powerful addition to any trader’s toolkit, simplifying market analysis and enhancing decision-making.
Breakout & Distribution DetectorHow the Script Works:
1. Bollinger Bands:
• The upper and lower Bollinger Bands are used to detect volatility and potential breakouts. When the price closes above the upper band, it’s considered a bullish breakout. When the price closes below the lower band, it’s a bearish breakout.
2. RSI (Relative Strength Index):
• The RSI is used for momentum confirmation. A bullish breakout is confirmed if the RSI is above 50, and a bearish breakout is confirmed if the RSI is below 50.
• If the RSI enters overbought (above 70) or oversold (below 30) levels, it signals a distribution phase, indicating the market may be ready to reverse or consolidate.
3. Moving Average:
• A simple moving average (SMA) of 20 periods is used to ensure we’re trading in the direction of the trend. Breakouts above the upper Bollinger Band are valid if the price is above the SMA, while breakouts below the lower Bollinger Band are valid if the price is below the SMA.
4. Signals and Alerts:
• BUY Signal: A green “BUY” label appears below the candle if a bullish breakout is detected.
• SELL Signal: A red “SELL” label appears above the candle if a bearish breakout is detected.
• Distribution Phase: The background turns purple if the market enters a distribution phase (RSI in overbought or oversold territory).
• Alerts: You can set alerts based on these conditions to get notifications for breakouts or when the market enters a distribution phase.
Options Series - Explode BB⭐ Bullish Zone:
⭐ Bearish Zone:
⭐ Neutral Zone:
The provided script integrates Bollinger Bands with different lengths (20 and 200 periods) and applies customized candle coloring based on certain conditions. Here's a breakdown of its importance and insights:
⭐ 1. Dual Bollinger Bands (BBs):
Bollinger Bands (BB) with 20-period length:
This is the standard setting for Bollinger Bands, with a 20-period simple moving average (SMA) as the central line and upper/lower bands derived from the standard deviation.
These bands are used to identify volatility. Wider bands indicate higher volatility, while narrower bands indicate low volatility.
200-period BB:
This is a longer-term indicator providing insight into the overall trend and long-term volatility.
The 200-period bands filter out noise and offer a "macro" view of price movements compared to the 20-period bands, which focus on short-term price actions.
⭐ 2. Overlay of Bollinger Bands and SMA:
The script plots the Bollinger Bands along with the SMA (Simple Moving Average) of the 200-period BB. This gives traders both a short-term (20-period) and long-term (200-period) perspective, which is valuable for detecting major trend shifts or key support and resistance zones.
Using multiple time frames (20-period for short-term and 200-period for long-term) can help traders spot both immediate opportunities and overarching trends.
⭐ 3. Candle Coloring Based on Key Conditions:
Bullish Signal (GreenFluroscent): When the price closes above the upper 200-period Bollinger Band, the candle turns green, indicating a potential bullish breakout.
Bearish Signal (RedFluroscent): If the price closes below the lower 200-period Bollinger Band, the candle turns red, suggesting a bearish breakout.
Neutral or Uncertain Market: Candles are gray when the price remains between the upper and lower bands, indicating a lack of a strong directional bias.
This color-coded visualization allows traders to quickly assess market sentiment based on the Bollinger Bands' extremes.
⭐ 4. Strategic Importance of the Setup:
Multi-timeframe Analysis: Combining short-term (20-period) and long-term (200-period) Bollinger Bands enables traders to assess the market's overall volatility and trend strength. The longer-term bands act as a reference for broader trend direction, while the shorter-term bands can signal shorter-term pullbacks or entry/exit points.
Breakout Identification: By color-coding the candles when prices cross either the upper or lower 200-period bands, the script makes it easier to spot potential breakouts. This can be particularly helpful in trading strategies that rely on volatility expansions or trend-following tactics.
⭐ 5. Customization and Flexibility:
Custom Colors: The script uses distinct fluorescent green and red colors to highlight key bullish and bearish conditions, providing clear visual cues.
Simplicity with Flexibility: Despite its simplicity, the script leaves room for customization, allowing traders to adjust the Bollinger Band multipliers or apply different conditions to candle coloring for more nuanced setups.
This script enhances standard Bollinger Band usage by introducing multi-timeframe analysis, breakout signals, and visual cues for trend strength, making it a powerful tool for both trend-following and mean-reversion strategies.
🚀 Conclusion:
This script effectively simplifies volatility analysis by visually marking bullish, bearish, and neutral zones, making it a robust tool for identifying trade opportunities across multiple timeframes. Its dual-band approach ensures both trend-following and mean-reversion strategies are supported.

Comprehensive Market Overview1. What is this indicator about?
The "Comprehensive Market Overview" indicator provides a holistic view of the market by incorporating several key metrics:
Close Price: Displays the current close price below each candle.
Percent from All-Time High: Calculates how far the current close price is from the highest high observed over a specified period.
RSI (Relative Strength Index): Measures the momentum of price movements to assess whether a stock is overbought or oversold.
Volume Gain: Computes the current volume relative to its 20-period simple moving average (SMA), indicating volume strength or weakness.
Volatility: Quantifies market volatility by calculating the ratio of the Bollinger Bands' width (difference between upper and lower bands) to the SMA.
2. How it works?
Close Price Label: This label is displayed below each bar, showing the current close price.
Percent from All-Time High: Calculates the percentage difference between the highest high observed (all-time high) and the current close price.
RSI Calculation: Computes the RSI using a 14-period setting, providing insight into whether a stock is potentially overbought or oversold.
Volume Strength: Computes the current volume divided by its 20-period SMA, indicating whether volume is above or below average.
Volatility Calculation: Calculates the width of the Bollinger Bands (based on a 20-period SMA and 2 standard deviations) and expresses it as a percentage of the SMA, providing a measure of market volatility
3.Correct Trend Identification with Indicators
All-Time High (ATH) Levels:
Low Value (Near ATH): When the percent from ATH is low (close to 0%), it indicates that the current price is near the all-time high zone. This suggests strong bullish momentum and potential resistance levels.
High Value (Below ATH): A high percentage from ATH indicates how much the current price is below the all-time high. This could signal potential support levels or opportunities for price recovery towards previous highs.
RSI (Relative Strength Index):
Overbought (High RSI): RSI values above 70 typically indicate that the asset is overbought, suggesting a potential reversal or correction in price.
Oversold (Low RSI): RSI values below 30 indicate oversold conditions, suggesting a potential rebound or price increase.
Swing Trading Strategies
Confirmation with Visual Analysis: Visualizing the chart to confirm ATH levels and RSI readings can provide strong indications of market sentiment and potential trading opportunities:
Bullish Signals: Look for prices near ATH with RSI confirming strength (not yet overbought), indicating potential continuation or breakout.
Bearish Signals: Prices significantly below ATH with RSI showing weakness (not yet oversold), indicating potential for a bounce or reversal.
Volume Confirmation: Comparing current volume to its SMA helps confirm the strength of price movements. Higher current volume relative to the SMA suggests strong price action.
Volatility Assessment: Monitoring volatility through the Bollinger Bands' width ratio helps assess potential price swings. Narrow bands suggest low volatility, while wide bands indicate higher volatility and potential trading opportunities.
4.Entry and Exit Points:
Entry: Consider entering long positions near support levels when prices are below ATH and RSI is oversold. Conversely, enter short positions near resistance levels when prices are near ATH and RSI is overbought.
Exit: Exit long positions near resistance or ATH levels when prices show signs of resistance or RSI becomes overbought. Exit short positions near support levels or when prices rebound from oversold conditions.
Risk Management: Always incorporate risk management techniques such as setting stop-loss orders based on support and resistance levels identified through ATH and RSI analysis.
Implementation Example
Bollinger Bands with RSI and Volume confirmationThe 'Bollinger Bands with RSI and Volume Confirmation' is an invite-only indicator designed to identify potential buy and sell signals by combining Bollinger Bands, RSI, and volume. This combination aims to provide a clearer picture of market conditions and potential price movements. The indicator is optimized for use on 15-minute timeframes.
Key Features:
1. Bollinger Bands:
- Parameters: The length (default: 20 periods) and the multiplier (default: 2.0) can be adjusted to suit different trading strategies.
- Visualization: The indicator plots the upper, lower, and basis (middle) bands on the 15-minute price chart. It also includes higher timeframe (1-hour) Bollinger Bands.
2. Relative Strength Index (RSI):
- Calculation: The RSI length (default: 21 periods) and source can be customized. The indicator provides an option to choose between SMA and EMA for smoothing the RSI.
3. Volume Confirmation:
- Analysis: The volume moving average length (default: 20 periods) helps confirm signals. Buy and sell signals are only considered valid if the current volume confirms them.
How it Works:
Buy Signal:
- Timeframe and Data Integration: This indicator is used exclusively on the 15-minute chart. It integrates Bollinger Bands data from both the 15-minute and 1-hour charts to enhance the accuracy of bullish or bearish market conditions.
- Bollinger Bands Confluence: When the price reaches the lower band of both the 15-minute and 1-hour Bollinger Bands, it often indicates a stronger oversold condition and a potential support level. This confluence suggests a higher likelihood of a price reversal or bounce back toward the middle or upper band. However, it can also confirm strong bearish momentum.
- RSI Confirmation: To filter out false signals and ensure that the price is likely to move back up rather than continuing downwards, the RSI is used for additional confirmation. The buy signal is only considered if the RSI becomes bullish and crosses above its moving average (RSI-based MA).
- Volume Confirmation: To further validate the potential buy signal, the market volume is analyzed. The indicator checks if there is sufficient volume to support a price reversal. Only if all these conditions align—confluence of Bollinger Bands, bullish RSI, and confirming volume—a buy signal is generated.
- Signal Confirmation Period: The indicator allows a period for all these conditions to align, ensuring a robust and reliable buy signal.
Example Buy Signal:
Sell Signal:
- Timeframe and Data Integration: As with the buy signal, the sell signal is used exclusively on the 15-minute chart. It integrates Bollinger Bands data from both the 15-minute and 1-hour charts to improve the accuracy of bearish market conditions.
- Bollinger Bands Confluence: When the price reaches the upper band of both the 15-minute and 1-hour Bollinger Bands, it often indicates a stronger overbought condition and a potential resistance level. This confluence suggests a higher likelihood of a price reversal downward. However, it can also confirm strong bullish momentum.
- RSI Confirmation: To avoid false signals and ensure that the price is likely to move down rather than continuing upwards, the RSI is used for additional confirmation. The sell signal is only considered if the RSI indicates bearishness and crosses below its moving average (RSI-based MA).
- Volume Confirmation: To validate the potential sell signal, the market volume is analyzed. The indicator checks if there is sufficient volume to support a price reversal downward. Only if all these conditions align—confluence of Bollinger Bands, bearish RSI, and confirming volume—a sell signal is generated.
- Signal Confirmation Period: The indicator allows a period for all these conditions to align, ensuring a robust and reliable sell signal.
Here is an example:
Alerts:
- The indicator includes alert conditions for both buy and sell signals, notifying traders when conditions are met. In order to activate the alerts you must go to TradingView's alerts section and enable buy/sell alerts for an asset.
This indicator uses a multi-faceted approach to signal generationt:
1. Bollinger Bands: This technical analysis tool is used to measure market volatility and identify potential overbought and oversold conditions. By plotting the Bollinger Bands on both 15-minute and 1-hour timeframes, the indicator can detect significant price levels where market reactions are likely.
2. RSI (Relative Strength Index): RSI is utilized to measure the speed and change of price movements. By incorporating an option to choose between SMA and EMA for smoothing, the indicator offers flexibility to adapt to various market conditions. RSI crossing its moving average provides additional confirmation of potential reversals.
3. Volume Analysis: Volume is a critical component in confirming the validity of price movements. The indicator analyzes volume by calculating a moving average (default: 20 periods) to determine if there is sufficient market activity to support the identified signals.
Concepts Underlying Calculations:
- Confluence of Indicators: The primary concept behind this indicator is the confluence of multiple technical indicators. By requiring alignment between Bollinger Bands, RSI, and volume, the indicator filters out false signals and increases the probability of successful trades.
- Timeframe Analysis: Integrating data from multiple timeframes (15-minute and 1-hour) provides a more comprehensive view of market conditions, helping to identify significant support and resistance levels.
- Signal Validation: Each potential signal is subjected to a validation process involving RSI and volume analysis. This ensures that only high-probability signals are generated, reducing the risk of entering trades based on weak or unreliable signals.
This indicator was developed to streamline market analysis and provide a more efficient trading experience. By integrating multiple indicators into a single tool, traders can quickly observe market conditions and make informed decisions without the need to manually check each indicator on separate timeframes. This saves time and provides a clearer sense of how the market is moving, enhancing the overall trading strategy.

█ USAGE OF CONNECTABLE INDICATORS
■ Connectable chaining mechanism
Connectable indicators can be connected directly to the signal monitor, signal filter or strategy , or they can be daisy chained to each other while the last indicator in the chain connects to the signal monitor, signal filter or strategy. When using a signal filter you can chain the filter to the strategy input to make your chain complete.
• Direct chaining: Connect an indicator directly to the signal monitor, signal filter or strategy through the provided inputs (→).
• Daisy chaining: Connect indicators using the indicator input (→). The first in a daisy chain should have a flow (⌥) set to 'Indicator only'. Subsequent indicators use 'Both' to pass the previous weight. The final indicator connects to the signal monitor, signal filter, or strategy.
■ Set up this indicator with a signal filter and strategy
The indicator provides visual cues based on signal conditions. However, its weight system is best utilized when paired with a connectable signal filter, signal monitor, and/or strategy .
Let's connect the Bollinger bands to a connectable signal filter and a strategy :
1. Load all relevant indicators
• Load Bollinger bands / Connectable
• Load Signal filter / Connectable
• Load Strategy / Connectable
2. Signal Filter: Connect the Bollinger bands to the Signal Filter
• Open the signal filter settings
• Choose one of the three input dropdowns (1→, 2→, 3→) and choose : Bollinger bands / Connectable: Signal Connector
• Toggle the enable box before the connected input to enable the incoming signal
3. Signal Filter: Update the filter signals settings if needed
• The default settings of the filter enable EL (Enter Long), XL (Exit Long), ES (Enter Short) and XS (Exit Short).
4. Signal Filter: Update the weight threshold settings if needed
• All connectable indicators load by default with a score of 6 for each direction (EL, XL, ES, XS)
• By default, weight threshold (TH) is set at 5. This allows each occurrence to score, as the default score in each connectable indicator is 1 point above the threshold. Adjust to your liking.
5. Strategy: Connect the strategy to the signal filter in the strategy settings
• Select a strategy input → and select the Signal filter: Signal connector
6. Strategy: Enable filter compatible directions
• Set the signal mode of the strategy to a compatible direction with the signal filter.
Now that everything is connected, you'll notice green spikes in the signal filter representing long signals, and red spikes indicating short signals. Trades will also appear on the chart, complemented by a performance overview. Your journey is just beginning: delve into different scoring mechanisms, merge diverse connectable indicators, and craft unique chains. Instantly test your results and discover the potential of your configurations. Dive deep and enjoy the process!

█ COMMON MISTAKES, CLARIFICATIONS AND TIPS
• Removing an indicator from a chain: Deleting a linked indicator and confirming the "remove study tree" alert will also remove all underlying indicators in the object tree. Before removing one, disconnect the adjacent indicators and move it to the object stack's bottom.
• Point systems: The azLibConnector provides 500 points for each direction (EL: Enter long, XL: Exit long, ES: Enter short, XS: Exit short) Remember this cap when devising a point structure.
• Flow misconfiguration: In daisy chains the first indicator should always have a flow (⌥) setting of 'indicator only' while other indicator should have a flow (⌥) setting of 'both'.
• Hide attributes: As connectable indicators send through quite some information you'll notice all the arguments are taking up some screenwidth and cause some visual clutter. You can disable arguments in Chart Settings / Status line.
• Layout and abbreviations: To maintain a consistent structure, we use abbreviations for each input. While this may initially seem complex, you'll quickly become familiar with them. Each abbreviation is also explained in the inline tooltips.
• Inputs: Connecting a connectable indicator directly to the strategy delivers the raw signal without a weight threshold, meaning every signal will trigger a trade.

Fibonacci Bollinger Volume Weighted DeviationDiscover market dynamics with the 'Fibonacci Bollinger Volume Weighted Deviation' indicator – a unique tool blending Fibonacci ratios, Bollinger Bands, and volume-weighted analysis. Ideal for spotting overbought/oversold conditions and potential market turnarounds, this indicator is a must-have for traders seeking nuanced insights into price behavior and volatility.
Description:
"The 'Fibonacci Bollinger Volume Weighted Deviation' indicator presents a novel approach to market trend analysis by integrating Fibonacci ratios with the classic concept of Bollinger Bands. Designed for traders who incorporate Fibonacci levels in their market analysis, this indicator adapts Bollinger Bands to a user-defined Fibonacci ratio. It creates dynamic upper and lower bands around a Simple Moving Average (SMA), offering insights into price deviations and potential overbought or oversold market states.
Incorporating volume data, this indicator provides a volume-weighted perspective of price deviations. This feature is crucial in gauging the market sentiment, as significant volumes linked with price deviations can signal strong market moves. By plotting these deviations and emphasizing those that significantly diverge from the volume-weighted average, it aids in pinpointing potential turning points or key support and resistance zones.
Versatile in nature, the 'Fibonacci Bollinger Volume Weighted Deviation' indicator is adaptable to various trading styles and market conditions. It proves especially valuable in markets where Fibonacci levels are a key factor. Traders can explore long positions when prices fall below the lower band and consider short positions when prices breach the upper band. The addition of volume-weighted deviation analysis refines these trading signals, offering a more sophisticated and nuanced decision-making process for entries and exits.
As a standalone tool or in conjunction with other technical instruments, this indicator is an invaluable addition to any technical analyst's toolkit. It not only enhances traditional Fibonacci and Bollinger Band methodologies but also integrates volume analysis to provide a comprehensive view of market trends and movements."
Directional Bollinger Bands PredictorThis strategy works on the principal that if Bollinger bands are closer to each other then the price is sideways and if it expands then the market is trending.
The strategy is built with a standard deviation of 2 from the EMA 20 and with a range of 0.25.
Explanation of Input Settings:
1. EMA Length: Set as a standard 20 EMA however the trader can make changes if required
2. Standard Deviation Multiplier: This depicts the value of the bands that are formed in association to the EMA value. The default is set to 2 however the same can be changed by the trader.
3. Threshold Value: The threshold Value is the percentage of squeeze within the bands that show if the market is sideways or not. The standard is set at 0.25 however it can be changed.
Unlike the standard Bollinger Bands this indicator will help the user differentiate between rangebound markets and trending markets as a result of which the user can deploy the following trading systems
A. Small reversal trades from the upper band to the lower band when the area is highlighted and the market is range bound and
B. Trend following trades when the bands start expanding and the highlight is omitted.
Pro Bollinger Bands CalculatorThe "Pro Bollinger Bands Calculator" indicator joins our suite of custom trading tools, which includes the "Pro Supertrend Calculator", the "Pro RSI Calculator" and the "Pro Momentum Calculator."
Expanding on this series, the "Pro Bollinger Bands Calculator" is tailored to offer traders deeper insights into market dynamics by harnessing the power of the Bollinger Bands indicator.
Its core mission remains unchanged: to scrutinize historical price data and provide informed predictions about future price movements, with a specific focus on detecting potential bullish (green) or bearish (red) candlestick patterns.
1. Bollinger Bands Calculation:
The indicator kicks off by computing the Bollinger Bands, a well-known volatility indicator. It calculates two pivotal Bollinger Bands parameters:
- Bollinger Bands Length: This parameter sets the lookback period for Bollinger Bands calculations.
- Bollinger Bands Deviation: It determines the deviation multiplier for the upper and lower bands, typically set at 2.0.
2. Visualizing Bollinger Bands:
The Bollinger Bands derived from the calculations are skillfully plotted on the price chart:
- Red Line: Represents the upper Bollinger Band during bearish trends, suggesting potential price declines.
- Teal Line: Represents the lower Bollinger Band in bullish market conditions, signaling the possibility of price increases.
3.Analyzing Consecutive Candlesticks:
The indicator's core functionality revolves around tracking consecutive candlestick patterns based on their relationship with the Bollinger Bands lines. To be considered for analysis, a candlestick must consistently close either above (green candles) or below (red candles) the Bollinger Bands lines for multiple consecutive periods.
4. Labeling and Enumeration:
To convey the count of consecutive candles displaying consistent trend behavior, the indicator meticulously assigns labels to the price chart. The position of these labels varies depending on the direction of the trend, appearing either below (for bullish patterns) or above (for bearish patterns) the candlesticks. The label colors match the candle colors: green labels for bullish candles and red labels for bearish ones.
5. Tabular Data Presentation:
The indicator complements its graphical analysis with a customizable table that prominently displays comprehensive statistical insights. Key data points within the table encompass:
- Consecutive Candles: The count of consecutive candles displaying consistent trend characteristics.
- Candles Above Upper BB: The number of candles closing above the upper Bollinger Band during the consecutive period.
- Candles Below Lower BB: The number of candles closing below the lower Bollinger Band during the consecutive period.
- Upcoming Green Candle: An estimated probability of the next candlestick being bullish, derived from historical data.
- Upcoming Red Candle: An estimated probability of the next candlestick being bearish, also based on historical data.
6. Custom Configuration:
To cater to diverse trading strategies and preferences, the indicator offers extensive customization options. Traders can fine-tune parameters such as Bollinger Bands length, upper and lower band deviations, label and table placement, and table size to align with their unique trading approaches.

█ Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System
Core components of an NNFX algorithmic trading strategy
The NNFX algorithm is built on the principles of trend, momentum, and volatility. There are six core components in the NNFX trading algorithm:
1. Volatility - price volatility; e.g., Average True Range, True Range Double, Close-to-Close, etc.
2. Baseline - a moving average to identify price trend
3. Confirmation 1 - a technical indicator used to identify trends
4. Confirmation 2 - a technical indicator used to identify trends
5. Continuation - a technical indicator used to identify trends
6. Volatility/Volume - a technical indicator used to identify volatility/volume breakouts/breakdown
7. Exit - a technical indicator used to determine when a trend is exhausted
8. Metamorphosis - a technical indicator that produces a compound signal from the combination of other GKD indicators*
*(not part of the NNFX algorithm)
What is Volatility in the NNFX trading system?
In the NNFX (No Nonsense Forex) trading system, ATR (Average True Range) is typically used to measure the volatility of an asset. It is used as a part of the system to help determine the appropriate stop loss and take profit levels for a trade. ATR is calculated by taking the average of the true range values over a specified period.
True range is calculated as the maximum of the following values:
-Current high minus the current low
-Absolute value of the current high minus the previous close
-Absolute value of the current low minus the previous close
ATR is a dynamic indicator that changes with changes in volatility. As volatility increases, the value of ATR increases, and as volatility decreases, the value of ATR decreases. By using ATR in NNFX system, traders can adjust their stop loss and take profit levels according to the volatility of the asset being traded. This helps to ensure that the trade is given enough room to move, while also minimizing potential losses.
Other types of volatility include True Range Double (TRD), Close-to-Close, and Garman-Klass
What is a Baseline indicator?
The baseline is essentially a moving average, and is used to determine the overall direction of the market.
The baseline in the NNFX system is used to filter out trades that are not in line with the long-term trend of the market. The baseline is plotted on the chart along with other indicators, such as the Moving Average (MA), the Relative Strength Index (RSI), and the Average True Range (ATR).
Trades are only taken when the price is in the same direction as the baseline. For example, if the baseline is sloping upwards, only long trades are taken, and if the baseline is sloping downwards, only short trades are taken. This approach helps to ensure that trades are in line with the overall trend of the market, and reduces the risk of entering trades that are likely to fail.
By using a baseline in the NNFX system, traders can have a clear reference point for determining the overall trend of the market, and can make more informed trading decisions. The baseline helps to filter out noise and false signals, and ensures that trades are taken in the direction of the long-term trend.
What is a Confirmation indicator?
Confirmation indicators are technical indicators that are used to confirm the signals generated by primary indicators. Primary indicators are the core indicators used in the NNFX system, such as the Average True Range (ATR), the Moving Average (MA), and the Relative Strength Index (RSI).
The purpose of the confirmation indicators is to reduce false signals and improve the accuracy of the trading system. They are designed to confirm the signals generated by the primary indicators by providing additional information about the strength and direction of the trend.
Some examples of confirmation indicators that may be used in the NNFX system include the Bollinger Bands, the MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence), and the MACD Oscillator. These indicators can provide information about the volatility, momentum, and trend strength of the market, and can be used to confirm the signals generated by the primary indicators.
In the NNFX system, confirmation indicators are used in combination with primary indicators and other filters to create a trading system that is robust and reliable. By using multiple indicators to confirm trading signals, the system aims to reduce the risk of false signals and improve the overall profitability of the trades.
What is a Continuation indicator?
In the NNFX (No Nonsense Forex) trading system, a continuation indicator is a technical indicator that is used to confirm a current trend and predict that the trend is likely to continue in the same direction. A continuation indicator is typically used in conjunction with other indicators in the system, such as a baseline indicator, to provide a comprehensive trading strategy.
What is a Volatility/Volume indicator?
Volume indicators, such as the On Balance Volume (OBV), the Chaikin Money Flow (CMF), or the Volume Price Trend (VPT), are used to measure the amount of buying and selling activity in a market. They are based on the trading volume of the market, and can provide information about the strength of the trend. In the NNFX system, volume indicators are used to confirm trading signals generated by the Moving Average and the Relative Strength Index. Volatility indicators include Average Direction Index, Waddah Attar, and Volatility Ratio. In the NNFX trading system, volatility is a proxy for volume and vice versa.
By using volume indicators as confirmation tools, the NNFX trading system aims to reduce the risk of false signals and improve the overall profitability of trades. These indicators can provide additional information about the market that is not captured by the primary indicators, and can help traders to make more informed trading decisions. In addition, volume indicators can be used to identify potential changes in market trends and to confirm the strength of price movements.
What is an Exit indicator?
The exit indicator is used in conjunction with other indicators in the system, such as the Moving Average (MA), the Relative Strength Index (RSI), and the Average True Range (ATR), to provide a comprehensive trading strategy.
The exit indicator in the NNFX system can be any technical indicator that is deemed effective at identifying optimal exit points. Examples of exit indicators that are commonly used include the Parabolic SAR, the Average Directional Index (ADX), and the Chandelier Exit.
The purpose of the exit indicator is to identify when a trend is likely to reverse or when the market conditions have changed, signaling the need to exit a trade. By using an exit indicator, traders can manage their risk and prevent significant losses.
In the NNFX system, the exit indicator is used in conjunction with a stop loss and a take profit order to maximize profits and minimize losses. The stop loss order is used to limit the amount of loss that can be incurred if the trade goes against the trader, while the take profit order is used to lock in profits when the trade is moving in the trader's favor.
Overall, the use of an exit indicator in the NNFX trading system is an important component of a comprehensive trading strategy. It allows traders to manage their risk effectively and improve the profitability of their trades by exiting at the right time.
What is an Metamorphosis indicator?
The concept of a metamorphosis indicator involves the integration of two or more GKD indicators to generate a compound signal. This is achieved by evaluating the accuracy of each indicator and selecting the signal from the indicator with the highest accuracy. As an illustration, let's consider a scenario where we calculate the accuracy of 10 indicators and choose the signal from the indicator that demonstrates the highest accuracy.
The resulting output from the metamorphosis indicator can then be utilized in a GKD-BT backtest by occupying a slot that aligns with the purpose of the metamorphosis indicator. The slot can be a GKD-B, GKD-C, or GKD-E slot, depending on the specific requirements and objectives of the indicator. This allows for seamless integration and utilization of the compound signal within the GKD-BT framework.
How does Loxx's GKD (Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System) implement the NNFX algorithm outlined above?
Loxx's GKD v2.0 system has five types of modules (indicators/strategies). These modules are:
1. GKD-BT - Backtesting module (Volatility, Number 1 in the NNFX algorithm)
2. GKD-B - Baseline module (Baseline and Volatility/Volume, Numbers 1 and 2 in the NNFX algorithm)
3. GKD-C - Confirmation 1/2 and Continuation module (Confirmation 1/2 and Continuation, Numbers 3, 4, and 5 in the NNFX algorithm)
4. GKD-V - Volatility/Volume module (Confirmation 1/2, Number 6 in the NNFX algorithm)
5. GKD-E - Exit module (Exit, Number 7 in the NNFX algorithm)
6. GKD-M - Metamorphosis module (Metamorphosis, Number 8 in the NNFX algorithm, but not part of the NNFX algorithm)
(additional module types will added in future releases)
Each module interacts with every module by passing data to A backtest module wherein the various components of the GKD system are combined to create a trading signal.
That is, the Baseline indicator passes its data to Volatility/Volume. The Volatility/Volume indicator passes its values to the Confirmation 1 indicator. The Confirmation 1 indicator passes its values to the Confirmation 2 indicator. The Confirmation 2 indicator passes its values to the Continuation indicator. The Continuation indicator passes its values to the Exit indicator, and finally, the Exit indicator passes its values to the Backtest strategy.
This chaining of indicators requires that each module conform to Loxx's GKD protocol, therefore allowing for the testing of every possible combination of technical indicators that make up the six components of the NNFX algorithm.
What does the application of the GKD trading system look like?
Example trading system:
Backtest: Multi-Ticker CC Backtest
Baseline: Hull Moving Average
Volatility/Volume: Hurst Exponent
Confirmation 1: Dollar Pile as shown on the chart above
Confirmation 2: uf2018
Continuation: Coppock Curve
Exit: Rex Oscillator
Metamorphosis: Baseline Optimizer
Each GKD indicator is denoted with a module identifier of either: GKD-BT, GKD-B, GKD-C, GKD-V, GKD-M, or GKD-E. This allows traders to understand to which module each indicator belongs and where each indicator fits into the GKD system.

Multi-timeframe Volume Weighted Average
First let's define Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP):
Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) is a widely-used technical analysis indicator that calculates the average price of a security, taking into account both price and trading volume. In essence, it represents the average price at which a security has been traded throughout a specified time period, giving more weight to transactions with higher volume.
The VWAP is often used by traders and investors to assess the market's trend and gauge the relative value of a security. It serves as a benchmark for institutional investors, who often use it to evaluate their trading performance and determine whether they are buying or selling at favorable prices.
The formula for calculating VWAP is:
VWAP = (Sum of (Price * Volume)) / Total Volume
By incorporating volume into the calculation, the VWAP provides a more accurate representation of a security's true average price, as it takes into consideration the impact of larger trades on the price. This makes it a valuable tool for traders seeking to make more informed decisions in the market and avoid getting caught in unfavorable trading positions.
VWAP is a crucial indicator that provides insights into the average price at which a financial asset, such as a stock or cryptocurrency, has been traded throughout a specific period. It takes into consideration the volume of trades executed at each price level during that period. The VWAP lines included in the " VWAP Xing D, Prv. D, W, Q, M, & Y" indicator offer various timeframe perspectives, allowing traders to analyze different levels of market trends and behaviors.
Here's a detailed explanation of the VWAP lines and their significance:
1. Daily VWAP (D): The daily VWAP line represents the average price at which the asset has been traded throughout the current trading day. It resets at the beginning of each trading session. Traders often use the daily VWAP as a reference point to gauge the fairness of their trade executions relative to the prevailing market prices. Price deviations from the daily VWAP can indicate shifts in market sentiment and potential trading opportunities.
2. Previous Day VWAP (Prv.D): The previous day VWAP line reflects the average price at which the asset was traded during the preceding trading day. It helps traders assess the continuity or deviation of the current day's price action relative to the previous day's trading activity. Traders often observe the previous day VWAP for insights into potential support or resistance levels and to identify whether the current day's price is trading above or below the previous day's average price.
3. Weekly VWAP (W): The weekly VWAP line calculates the average price of the asset over the entire week, taking into account the volume traded at each price level. Traders use the weekly VWAP to gain a broader perspective on the asset's price movement and potential trend directions. It can act as a significant support or resistance level, especially when the price interacts with the weekly VWAP.
4. Monthly VWAP (M): The monthly VWAP line provides a longer-term perspective by averaging the asset's price and volume data over the entire month. It helps traders identify key price levels that are significant within the monthly timeframe. Traders often observe the monthly VWAP to assess the overall trend and to determine whether the current price is trading above or below the monthly average.
5. Quarterly VWAP (Q): The quarterly VWAP line calculates the average price and volume data over a three-month period, representing a longer-term view of market activity. Traders use the quarterly VWAP to identify significant price levels and to analyze the broader trend within the quarterly timeframe. Deviations from the quarterly VWAP can indicate potential shifts in market sentiment and trading opportunities.
6. Yearly VWAP (Y): The yearly VWAP line represents the average price and volume data over the course of a year. It offers a comprehensive long-term perspective on the asset's price behavior and trend. Traders often consider the yearly VWAP as a key reference point for assessing the asset's overall performance and identifying major support or resistance levels.
By observing the VWAP lines, traders can gain insights into the prevailing market sentiment, potential support or resistance levels, and deviations from average prices. These deviations can be useful for identifying potential trading opportunities, such as when the price significantly deviates from the VWAP lines, suggesting potential overbought or oversold conditions. Additionally, VWAP can serve as a benchmark for evaluating trade executions and assessing the fair value of an asset.
It's important to note that while VWAP is a valuable tool, it should be used in conjunction with other technical analysis indicators and strategies to make informed trading decisions. Traders should consider factors like market context, trend analysis, and risk management principles to validate signals and confirm potential trading opportunities.
Bollinger Bands and Donchian Channels
In addition to VWAP this indicator also has combined the power of Bollinger Bands and Donchian Channels to produce a solid framework. The time frame by default is set to 30 min which is good for intraday trading but you can also change that in the setting to always use chart time frame intervals which works better on longer time frames.
IMPORTANT: You can change the time frame to always use chart or keep the default on 30 min or change it to another timeframe manually. If you allow the chart to always provide the intervals then the default 30 min will be ineffective and it automatically adjust to chart timeframe. Personally I think a fixed timeframe work better so keep in that way if you trade on 30 min or lower time frame.
Bollinger Bands and Donchian Channels are two popular technical analysis tools that provide valuable insights into price volatility, potential breakout levels, and support/resistance areas. When used in combination, they offer a comprehensive framework for analyzing market conditions and identifying trading opportunities.
Bollinger Bands: Bollinger Bands consist of two lines plotted above and below a moving average, typically a simple moving average (SMA). The upper band is calculated by adding the standard deviation of price multiplied by a customizable standard deviation factor to the SMA. The lower band is calculated by subtracting the standard deviation multiplied by the same factor from the SMA. The key features of Bollinger Bands are as follows:
1. Volatility Measurement: Bollinger Bands expand and contract based on market volatility. When the bands widen, it indicates higher volatility, and when they narrow, it suggests lower volatility. Traders can observe the width of the bands to gauge the potential for price movements and volatility expansions.
2. Overbought/Oversold Levels: Bollinger Bands can help identify overbought and oversold conditions in the market. When the price reaches or exceeds the upper band, it may indicate that the asset is overbought and due for a potential reversal or pullback. Conversely, when the price reaches or falls below the lower band, it may suggest oversold conditions and a possible bounce or reversal.
Donchian Channels: Donchian Channels consist of two lines representing the highest high and lowest low within a specified period. The key characteristics of Donchian Channels are as follows:
1. Breakout Levels: The upper line of the Donchian Channel represents the highest high within the specified period, while the lower line represents the lowest low. Traders often use Donchian Channels to identify potential breakout levels. When the price breaks above the upper channel line, it may indicate a bullish breakout and the potential for further upward momentum. Conversely, a break below the lower channel line suggests a bearish breakout and the possibility of downward momentum.
2. Support/Resistance Areas: Donchian Channels also act as dynamic support and resistance levels. The upper channel line can act as a resistance level where the price may encounter selling pressure. The lower channel line can act as a support level where the price may find buying interest. Traders can monitor price interactions with these levels to make informed trading decisions.
Advantages of Using Bollinger Bands and Donchian Channels Together: By combining Bollinger Bands and Donchian Channels, traders can gain a more comprehensive view of market conditions and potential trading opportunities. Here are some advantages of using them together:
1. Volatility Confirmation: Bollinger Bands help identify periods of high or low volatility, while Donchian Channels confirm breakouts and potential trend changes. When the bands widen and a breakout occurs above or below the Donchian Channels, it can provide confirmation of increased volatility and the start of a new trend.
2. Price Extremes and Breakouts: Bollinger Bands assist in identifying overbought and oversold conditions, while Donchian Channels help pinpoint breakout levels. When price reaches an extreme level according to Bollinger Bands and coincides with a breakout from the Donchian Channels, it can signal a significant trading opportunity.
3. Support/Resistance Validation: Donchian Channels act as dynamic support and resistance levels, and Bollinger Bands can validate these levels. When price bounces off the upper or lower Bollinger Band near a Donchian Channel level, it provides additional confirmation of the support or resistance area.
4. Risk Management: The combination of Bollinger Bands and Donchian Channels enables traders to set more precise stop-loss levels and define risk. They can place stop-loss orders beyond the support or resistance levels identified.
Standard Deviation
Standard deviation bands by default are disabled but you can easily enable them in the setting. The 1 standard deviation bands are made invisible by default to avoid a crowded space. You can reduce the transparency to view them.
In intraday trading, the Daily VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price) with 3 standard deviations is a powerful tool that helps traders gauge price movements and potential trading opportunities. Here's how it works and why it is useful:
1. Calculation of Daily VWAP: The Daily VWAP is the average price at which a security has traded throughout the trading day, weighted by the volume of each trade. It provides a measure of the average price that traders have paid for the asset during the day.
2. Standard Deviation: Standard deviation is a statistical measure that quantifies the dispersion or variability of prices around the Daily VWAP. It gives an indication of how much prices deviate from the average. A higher standard deviation suggests greater price volatility.
3. Three Standard Deviations: By adding and subtracting three times the standard deviation from the Daily VWAP, you create bands that represent the potential price range within which the majority of intraday trading activity is expected to occur. These bands act as potential support and resistance levels and help traders identify price extremes.
4. Price Reversals: When the intraday price extends beyond the upper or lower band (three standard deviations), it suggests an overextended move or potential price reversal. Traders interpret this as an opportunity to enter or exit trades. If the price moves beyond the upper band, it may indicate overbought conditions and a possible reversal to the downside. Conversely, if the price moves below the lower band, it may signal oversold conditions and a potential reversal to the upside.
5. Volatility and Breakouts: Intraday traders often look for volatility and breakout opportunities. The three standard deviation bands on the Daily VWAP provide valuable information about price volatility. When the price breaks out of the bands, it suggests a significant increase in volatility and potential opportunities for intraday traders to take advantage of strong momentum moves.
6. Risk Management: The three standard deviation bands help traders define their risk and set stop-loss orders. By placing stop-loss orders outside the bands, traders can protect their positions in case the price moves beyond the expected range. This risk management technique allows traders to limit their potential losses and preserve capital.
7. Confirmation with Other Indicators: Intraday traders often use the three standard deviation bands on the Daily VWAP in conjunction with other technical indicators or chart patterns to strengthen their trading decisions. The bands can validate other signals or provide additional confirmation before entering or exiting a trade.
Overall, the Daily VWAP with three standard deviations is a valuable tool for intraday traders as it helps identify price extremes, potential reversals, volatility, and breakout opportunities. By incorporating this indicator into their trading strategies, traders can make more informed decisions and enhance their intraday trading performance.
