Rails v2Centered around a Variable Moving Average (Rail Line). The Variable Moving Average (VMA) is a study that uses an Exponential Moving Average being able to automatically adjust its smoothing factor according to the market volatility.
In addition to the Rail Line or VMA, the indicator makes use of Bollinger Bands in two ways. First, it displays when the Bollinger Bands are in a squeeze and the potential direction of the breakout. The "squeeze" is the central concept of Bollinger Bands. When the bands come close together, constricting the moving average, it is called a squeeze. A squeeze signals a period of low volatility and is considered by traders to be a potential sign of future increased volatility and possible trading opportunities. The Bollinger Bands are also utilized to highlight when price action might reverse. This signals when price closes outside of the bands, quickly reverts and closes within the bands
The indicator makes use of the Hull Moving Average as a method to quickly capture price action moves thanks to its ability to eliminate lag while managing to improve smoothing at the same time.
Finally, the indicator utilizes Volume Point of Control (VPOC) to determine points in price where the highest amount of volume was traded. Unlike the market profile, the indicator will plot the Volume POC per candle. The script will also plot Trapped Volume. This is important as it tends to serve a signal for reversal. The more price moves away from the trapped volume, Long/Short traders might be forced to cover and price could quickly move away from the area.

Weighted Deviation Bands [Loxx]What are Weighted Deviation Bands?
Variation of the Bollinger bands but it uses linear weighted average and weighted deviation via Mladen Rakic.
What is Weighted Deviation?
This weighted deviation is a sort of all linear weighted deviation. It uses linear weighting in all the steps calculated (which makes it different from the built in deviation in a case when linear weighted ma is used in the ma method). It is more responsive than the standard deviation

ZN PivotsDescription
This indicator is aimed at showing the pivot points of the trend by using Ichimoku cloud and Bollinger bands.
BOLL : Upper Bollinger Band. The red circle formed on it refers to the downward intersection of the MACD indicator. In the downward intersection, a red circle appears.
BOLL : Middle Bollinger Band.
BOLL : Lower Bollinger Band. The red circle formed on it refers to the downward intersection of the RSI indicator. In the downward intersection, a red circle appears.
ICHI : Ichimoku Leading A Line. The green circle formed on it refers to the upward intersection of the ICHIMOKU indicator.
ICHI : Ichimoku Leading B Line. The red circle formed on it refers to the downward intersection of the ICHIMOKU indicator.
Warning
As a result, this indicator should be expected to give an idea of the trend direction, not a trading signal.
Version
v1.0
Fibonacci Volatility BandsFibonacci Volatility Bands are just an alternative that allows for more margin than regular Bollinger Bands. They are created based on an average of moving averages that use the Fibonacci sequence as lookback periods.
The use of the Fibonacci Volatility Bands is exactly the same as the Bollinger Bands.
BB Running Away CandleHello,
here is an indicator that can be helpful for your trading that is simple and easy to use.
Our culprit here is a candle that opens and closes below the lower band of Bollinger Band, Black and red lines are put on the high and low of that candle.
Green Arrows are happening when:
1- When candle closes above the black line and Stochastic RSI is in the oversold area >> "Confirmed B"
2- When candle closes above the black line >> "B"
Note that you can choose from the settings whether you want it confirmed or not.
Red Arrows are happening when:
1- Price reached the higher band of Bollinger Bands >> "BB High"
2- Stochastic crosses down from above 80 level >> "Stoch Crossdown"
3- RSI reached above 70 levle >> "RSI Oversold"
Note that you can choose to turn these on or off from the settings.
Settings of indicators are set to default.
NOTE: Alerts are put there however i didn't get the chance to test them, so would like to hear your feedback about them.
THE USE OF THIS INDICATOR IS YOUR OWN RESPONSIBILITY.
wishing you the best.
GKD-V Waddah Attar Explosion (WAE) [Loxx]Giga Kaleidoscope Waddah Attar Explosion (WAE) is a Volatility / Volume module included in Loxx's "Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System".
█ Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System
What is Loxx's "Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System"?
The Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System is a trading system built on the philosophy of the NNFX (No Nonsense Forex) algorithmic trading.
What is 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.
How does Loxx's GKD (Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System) implement the NNFX algorithm outlined above?
Loxx's GKD v1.0 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)
(additional module types will added in future releases)
Each module interacts with every module by passing data between modules. Data is passed between each module as described below:
GKD-B => GKD-V => GKD-C(1) => GKD-C(2) => GKD-C(Continuation) => GKD-E => GKD-BT
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: Strategy with 1-3 take profits, trailing stop loss, multiple types of PnL volatility, and 2 backtesting styles
Baseline: Hull Moving Average
Volatility/Volume: Waddah Attar Explosion (WAE) as shown on the chart above
Confirmation 1: Halftrend Averages
Confirmation 2: Williams Percent Range
Continuation: Fisher Transform
Exit: Rex Oscillator
Each GKD indicator is denoted with a module identifier of either: GKD-BT, GKD-B, GKD-C, GKD-V, or GKD-E. This allows traders to understand to which module each indicator belongs and where each indicator fits into the GKD protocol chain.

█ Waddah Attar Explosion (WAE)
What is Waddah Attar Explosion (WAE)
Waddah Attar Explosion (WAE) Backtest is a momentum strategy that accounts for volatility in the market. It is the combination of MACD and Bollinger Bands with volatility cutoffs to determine entry and exit points. This version of WAE also includes a non-lag MACD option.
Other things to note
The GKD trading system requires that a GKD-V indicator be present in the indicator chain, but the GKD-V indicator doesn't need to be active. You can turn on/off the Volatility Ratio as you wish so you can backtest your trading strategy with the filter on or off.
Additional features will be added in future releases.
Faytterro Bandswhat is Faytterro Bands?
it is a channel indicator like "Bollinger Bands".
what it does?
creates a channel using standard deviations and means. thus giving users an idea about the expensive and cheap zones. It uses a special weighted moving average different from standard bollinger bands, it also averages not only price but also deviations.
how it does it?
it uses this formulas:
how to use it?
its usage is the same as "bollinger band".
length represents the number of candles to be taken into account, source represents the source of those candles and stdev represents the coefficient of the standard deviation.
you can use it with other indicators:
Bollinger Bands SignalsDescription:
This indicator works well in trendy markets on long runs and in mean-reverting markets, at almost any timeframe.
That said, higher timeframes are much preferred for their intrinsic ability to cut out noise. The example chart is in 3H TF.
Be mindful, the script shows somewhat erratic jigsaw-like behaviour during consolidation periods when the price
jumps up and down in indecision which way to go. Fortunately, there are scripts out there that detect such periods.
You can choose between 4 Moving Averages, Vidya being the default. Period, Deviation and Bands Width parameters
all of them affect the signal generation.
For the Pine Script coder this script is pretty obvious.
It uses a standard technical analysis indicator - Bollinger Bands - and appends it with a 'width' parameter and
a signal generation procedure.
The signal generation procedure is the heart of this script that keeps the script pumping signals.
The BB width is used as a filter.
You can use this procedure in your own scripts and it will continue generate signals according to your rules.
Z Pack BollingerOur new "Z Pack" indicator is a modified version of the traditional Bollinger Bands indicator, with a bunch of additional features what makes it a powerful tool that allows traders to make informed decisions based on the market's volatility and short-term trend.
The z-score of the Bollinger Bands indicator is a measure of how many standard deviations the current price is away from the moving average. This provides a more normalized view of the price action, which can be especially useful in identifying potential trend changes. In this form of indicator it is much easier to notice the most extreme deviations from the mean.
One of the main advantages of using this indicator is that it can help traders identify market conditions that are unusually far away from the mean, which can be indicative of a potential trend reversal or that, with sustained momentum a new trend may be about to begin.
Another advantage of the Z-Score Bollinger Bands indicator is that it can help traders identify when a market is trending. This is because when the Z-score is consistently high or low, it can indicate that a trend is in progress or that a trend may be reversing, respectively.
As for the additional features with which we have charged this indicator, there are many of them and they will be explained now.
Capital line
"Capital line" is based on a kernel regression of z score value over time.
The kernel regression is a non-parametric method that allows to estimate the underlying probability density function of a random variable and this way provides a smooth representation of the data. By using this method, the "Сapital line" is able to react to market changes much faster than traditional methods and gives traders a more accurate representation of the short-term trend.
Also we have developed a filter that reduces the number of false signals (you can toggle it in the settings). It is also possible to enable the display of only the capital line to focus only on it.
Divergence search
One of the unique features of the indicator is its ability to search for divergence between the z score and the price. A divergence occurs when the indicator and the price are moving in opposite directions, indicating a potential trend reversal. This allows traders to identify potential market turning points and make informed decisions.
It is possible to search for divergence on a Z-score, although it is not a common practice. In technical analysis, divergence is a method of comparing the movement of an asset's price with an indicator, such as an oscillator, in order to identify potential trend reversals. The same concept of divergence can be applied to a Z-score by comparing the movement of a value's Z-score to the underlying data, for example, by comparing the change in Z-score to the change in the underlying price of a stock. However, this is not a widely used approach and requires thoughtful analysis, but according to our observations, it provides quite important information about the potential exhaustion of the current trend.
By combining the z-score with the price, traders can look for divergences that might not be as obvious when looking at the indicator or the price alone. For example, if the z-score is trending higher while the price is trending lower, this could indicate a potential bullish reversal. Similarly, if the z-score is trending lower while the price is trending higher, this could indicate a potential bearish reversal.
Price Labels
The labels indicating the price of an asset that corresponds to a specific level of the standard deviation are a useful feature for traders because it allows them to quickly identify key levels of support and resistance. By placing limit orders at these levels, traders can potentially enter or exit trades at more favorable prices. This can help to improve the risk-reward ratio of their trades, as well as potentially increase the chances of a profitable outcome. Additionally, having these labels readily available can save traders time in identifying key levels of support and resistance, allowing them to focus on other aspects of their trading strategy.
Additionally, there is an option to analyze the previous volatility of the instrument for a specified time period. If the instrument has crossed the maximum standard deviation level at least once during the specified time period, a separate dashed line will be drawn on the z score chart, demonstrating how volatile the instrument is in the context of the specified time period. This is known as Extreme Mode.
The feature of analyzing the previous volatility of an instrument using the z score indicator can be beneficial for traders in a number of ways. One major advantage is that it allows traders to quickly assess the historical volatility of an instrument and compare it to current volatility levels. This can be useful for determining if an instrument is currently experiencing unusually high or low volatility, which can in turn inform trading decisions.
Another advantage of this feature is that it allows traders to quickly identify key levels of volatility that have been historically significant for the instrument. For example, if an instrument has frequently crossed the maximum deviation level during a specified time period, a trader may choose to place limit orders at that level in anticipation of the instrument reaching it again in the future.
The ability to see the price at a particular moment in time when the price breaks through the 4th(selectable) level of the z score can be an advantage for traders as it allows them to quickly identify key price levels and potentially place limit orders at those levels. This feature can be useful for traders who want to take advantage of market volatility or for those who want to set stop-loss or take-profit levels.
Additionally, the feature can be useful for identifying key levels of support and resistance, as well as for identifying potential entry and exit points for trades. By having the ability to quickly identify these key levels, traders can make more informed decisions about their trades and potentially increase their chances of success in the market.
Alerts
The "Z pack" indicator also includes an advanced, customisable alerting system, with alerts for z level touches, zero crossings, changes in the direction of the capital line, and confirmed or potential divergence. It allows them to stay informed of key developments in the market in real-time and take action accordingly.
For example, if the indicator generates an alert for a z level touch, a trader can place a market order at that level knowing that the price has reached a significant level of volatility. Similarly, an alert for a zero crossing (up/down) can indicate a change in trend, and a trader can use this information to adjust their strategy accordingly.
The alerts of confirmed or potential divergence can be especially useful for identifying potential turning points in the market and make decisions based on that.
NB! Remember, it is important to have a solid trading plan in place and to properly manage risk when trading. Our custom indicator can be a useful tool, but it should not be the only factor considered when making trade decisions.

Bollinger Bands [Anan]Hello friends,,
This is my own enhanced version of Bollinger Bands based on some backtesting,,
It's the same logic behind standard BB but instead of using length(period), I created a formula and used a "factor" to scale it up/down.
The formula is just average of averages of averages... (But it's backtested with good results)
I also added two standard deviations so that the distance between them will be the (over-bought/over-sold zones)
And finally added a squeeze indicator to identify the predicted price action movements..
You have the options to control everything like:
-Timeframe
-Source
-Calculation Method
-Length Factor
-StdDev#1
-StdDev#2
-Squeeze Factor

Squeeze Range: Bollinger Bands / Keltner Channels [Whvntr]Presenting Squeeze Range: Bollinger Bands / Keltner Channels
TTMSqueeze method is a volatility and momentum indicator introduced by John Carter of Simpler Trading, which capitalizes on the tendency for price to break out strongly after consolidating in a tight trading range.
How did I make this indicator? The Bollinger Bands & Keltner Channels base scripts are from the standard indicators of their class in the Technicals section... I made this indicator first then noticed there were 3 others with a similar concept, but this differs in it's unique features and application of the TTMSqueeze strategy. This indicator plots the True Range of the Keltner Channel (Customizable in 'Bands Style" in the Inputs Menu) the instances the Bollinger Bands are within the range of the Keltner channel (the market just entered a squeeze).
Featuring: customizable Moving Averages
1. Exponential (Default for both BB & KC)
2. Simple
3. RMA (MA used in RSI )
Keltner channels have a multiplier of 2 & 3 on the Chart (3 being the outer).
How do I use this indicator? Once the teal dots are inside the solid red lines this would indicate that TTMperiod of low market volatility (the market is preparing itself for an explosive move up or down). Do some research and study how to use the TTMSqueeze method by John Carter. Disclaimer: not a guarantee of future favorable results.
Strategy Myth-Busting #7 - MACDBB+SSL+VSF - [MYN]This is part of a new series we are calling "Strategy Myth-Busting" where we take open public manual trading strategies and automate them. The goal is to not only validate the authenticity of the claims but to provide an automated version for traders who wish to trade autonomously.
Our seventh one we are automating is the "Magic MACD Indicator: Crazy Accurate Scalping Trading Strategy ( 74% Win Rate )" strategy from "TradeIQ" who claims to have backtested this manually and achieved 427% profit with a 74% winrate over 100 trades in just a 4 months. I was unable to emulate these results consistently accommodating for slippage and commission but even so the results and especially the high win-rate and low markdown is pretty impressive and quite respectable.
This strategy uses a combination of 3 open-source public indicators:
AK MACD BB v 1.00 by Algokid
SSL Hybrid by Mihkel00
Volume Strength Finder by Saravanan_Ragavan
This is considered a trend following Strategy. AK MACD BB is being used as the primary short term trend direction indicator with an interesting approach of using Bollinger Bands to define an upper and lower range and upon the MACD going above the upper Bollinger Bands, it's indicative of an up trend, where as if the MACD is below the lower Bollinger Band, it's indicative of a down trend. To eliminate false signals, SSL Hyrbid is used as a trend confirmation filter, confirming and eliminating false signals from the MACD BB. It does this by validating the price action is above the the EMA and the SSL is positive that is a confirmation of an uptrend. When the price action is below the EMA and the SSL is negative, that is an confirmation of a downtrend. To avoid taking trades during ranged markets, VSF Buyer's Strength is used so the buyers/sellers strength and must be above 50% or the trade will not be inititiated.
Trading Rules
5 min candles but other lower time frames even below 5m work quite well too.
Best results can be found by tweaking these 2 input parameters:
Number Of bars to look back to ensure MACD isn't above/below Zero Line
Number Of bars back to look for SSL pullback
Long Entry when these conditions are true
AK MACD BB BB issues a new continuation long signal. A new green circle must appear on the indicator and these circles should not be touching across the zero level while they were previously red
SSL Hybrid price action closes above the EMA and the line is blue color and then creates a pullback . The pullback is confirmed when the color changes from blue to gray or from blue to red.
VSF Buyers strength above 50% at the time the MACD indicator issues a new long signal.
Short Entry when these conditions are true
AK MACD BB issues a new continuation short signal. A new red circle must appear on the indicator and these circles should not be touching across the zero level while they were previously green
SSL Hybrid price action closes below the EMA and the line is red color then it has to create a pullback . The pullback is confirmed when the color changes from red to gray or from red to blue.
VSF Sellers strength above 50% at the time the MACD indicator issues a new short signal.
Stop Loss at EMA Line with TP Target 1.5x the risk

Exponential Bollinger Bands (EBB)This script is a variation of the popular Bollinger Bands indicator, which uses exponential moving averages (EMA) instead of simple moving averages (SMA) as its core calculation. The indicator is designed to provide a visual representation of volatility, with the distance between the upper and lower bands being determined by the standard deviation of the underlying data.
The script starts by defining a number of helper functions that are used to calculate the moving averages and standard deviations required for the indicator. The first helper function is sma(), which calculates the simple moving average of the input data over a specified length. This function uses linear interpolation to smooth the data when the length is not an integer. The stdev() function calculates the standard deviation of the input data using the simple moving average calculated by the sma() function.
The bes() function calculates the exponential moving average of the input data over a specified length. The estdev() function calculates the standard deviation of the input data using the exponential moving average calculated by the bes() function.
The estdev function calculates the standard deviation using an exponential moving average method, rather than the traditional simple moving average method used by the stdev function. The exponential moving average method gives more weight to recent data, which can make the estdev more responsive to recent changes in volatility. This can make it more useful in certain types of analysis, such as identifying trends in volatility. Additionally, it also uses the same EMA algorithm to calculate the average value of the data set, which can help to keep the output of the estdev and average functions consistent.
The script also defines two more helper functions, average() and standard_deviation(), which allow the user to switch between using simple moving averages (SMA) and exponential moving averages (EMA) as the basis for the indicator. These functions take three arguments, the input data, the length of the moving average, and a string that specifies whether to use SMA or EMA.
The script then defines the input parameters for the indicator. The user can choose whether to use SMA or EMA as the basis for the indicator using the select parameter. The user can also specify the length of the moving average and the multiplier for the standard deviation using the length and multiplier parameters, respectively.
Finally, the script calculates the average and standard deviation of the input data using the selected method (SMA or EMA), and plots the upper and lower bands of the indicator. The upper band is calculated as the average plus the standard deviation multiplied by the specified multiplier, while the lower band is calculated as the average minus the standard deviation multiplied by the specified multiplier.
Volume Weighted Standard Deviation (VWSD)The Volume Weighted Standard Deviation indicator is a custom technical analysis tool that uses the volume of trading to calculate the standard deviation of a stock's price. This indicator takes the source of data, the length of data, and the deviation as inputs, and calculates the volume weighted standard deviation using the values.
The indicator first calculates the mean price and mean volume by using simple moving average over the given length of data. Then it calculates the squared difference between the mean price and the actual price, multiplied by the volume. This gives a volume-weighted squared difference. The indicator then calculates the square root of the sum of the volume-weighted squared differences divided by the sum of the volumes over the given length of data. This gives the volume weighted standard deviation.
The indicator then plots the standard deviation and deviation as a band around the simple moving average of the source data, providing a clear view of the volatility of the stock.
In summary, the Volume Weighted Standard Deviation indicator is a powerful tool for measuring the volatility of a stock by taking into account the volume of trading. It uses the volume of trading to calculate the standard deviation of a stock's price, giving a more accurate representation of the volatility of the stock. It can be useful for traders to identify entry and exit points and make more informed trading decisions.
LIZ-ATR-Based EMA EnvelopesThis envelope has an "auto band adjustment function" that reflects the most recent volatility in the band width by ATR.
This makes it easy to handle without the need to change the band width according to the volatility of the stocks to be displayed.
The time periods and colors of each time frame that can be displayed and the central band of the envelope are as follows.
Monthly: 2-year line (light blue)
Weekly: 3-month line (black)
Daily: 1 month line (blue)
4-hourly: 1-week line (green)
1 hour: 24 hour line (purple)
30-minute: 12-hour line (light purple)
15-minute: 4-hour line (orange)
5min:2hr (skin color)
1 minute: 30 minute line (gray-blue)
30 seconds: 10 minute line (blue-purple)
15-seconds: 7.5-minute line (sky blue)
10-seconds: 5-minute line (brown)
5-seconds: 2-minute line (emerald green)
Depending on where the price resides in the band, the following situations can be identified
・When inside the first band: Trendless
・Between the first and second band: Normal trend
・Between the 2nd and 3rd band: Strong trend
・When the third line is exceeded: Overheat condition
The first range is painted in gray and encourages not to follow the trend. In addition, the "up" sign will automatically light up when the price is above this gray zone, the "middle" sign when the price is in the middle of the gray zone, and the "down" sign when the price is below the gray zone.

Mb Live Buy and Sell SignalsHello traders,
Today I am going to share with you an indicator I wrote by mixing other indicators to give me buy and sell signals. This indicators work on all FOREX pairs and Bitcoin , but it is less accurate on cryptocurrencies in general. The best result I have got is in 5 min chart with the default setting.
I have used RSI and its Moving Average to see if the market is getting saturated. If you have experience trading even for a bit, you realize trading with only RSI doesn't give you much, Hence I used Bollinger Band to find the market volatility, where its low and where it is high. Then I mixed these two to make a new indicator as you can see. For sake of this indicator, I made it as simple as possible with giving you less numbers to play with. The only thing you can play with are the RSI overbought, oversold and the middle line which I suggest let it be for Forex pairs. Also, you can play with timeframes if you would like to add a third indicator for yourself such as DC basis line which I use frequently with my other indicators . Unlike many buy and sell signals, This indicator does not work with trend and it is more based on market Volatility and strength of buyers and sellers (Oscillator) to give us PRZ . I did not want to share my script publicly as I spend lot of time mixing these indicators in different timeframes and different numbers but I hope you understand the basics behind the indicator and how it gives buy and sell signals.
For sake of time, I only did 100 back tests on EUR/JPY and here is the results.
ibb.co
The first trade was started on Oct 18th 2022 and last trade on Jan 6th 2023. That means in 83 days (including Sat and Sun) $1000 with risk to reward 2.5 became %5175. You have to consider it was only 100 back test and at least 300 back test is required for accurate result. There is a money management trick, which you exit %10 of the position at R/R 1 and bring the stop loss to the entry point, the second TP is R/R 2.5 which you exit the rest of the position. As you can see in the excel picture, instead of $5175 we have around $5625.
And now How I used this strategy to put my stop Loss. You can use Zig Zag as well if that makes it easier for you. I use price actions ,the last pivot or the nearest Support or resistance to put my stop loss a bit below (for buy signals) and above ( for sell signals). Here is an example:
you have to understand, you will trade with you money and you have to be critical and pessimistic. In backtests, if a trade hits your stop loss and then goes according the signals, Don't count it as a winning trade and put the emotions away. Here is an example:
If there is any question please write down in comment sections or contact me through social medias links.
Average Deviation Bands (ADB)The Average Deviation Bands indicator is a technical analysis tool that plots multiple bands around the average price of an asset. These bands are calculated using the standard deviation of the asset's price over a specified time period, as well as the average price of the asset over the same period. However, it's important to note that the standard deviation is only calculated for the specified time period leading up to the current point in the data set. The indicator then takes the average of all of these standard deviation values to plot the bands. The number and width of the bands can be customized by the user. The bands can be used to identify potential trend changes and to assess the volatility of the asset. The indicator is often used in combination with other technical analysis tools to provide a more complete picture of market conditions.
Fibonacci Bollinger Bands (FBB)The Fibonacci Moving Average (FMA) is an indicator for financial markets that is calculated using the Fibonacci sequence and the metallic mean. The metallic mean is a type of average that is calculated by adding the source and the square root of the sum of the square of the source and 4, and then dividing the result by 2. The FMA is then calculated by using the metallic mean of the source as the weight for each period in the given length, and summing these weighted values. The standard deviation of the metallic mean of the source is also calculated using the FMA over the given length.
Users can input the source data and the length for the FMA calculation, as well as a series of boolean values to determine which levels of the FMA to plot on the chart. The levels include the standard deviation of the metallic mean of the source, as well as various multiples of the Fibonacci ratios between 0 and 2.618. The resulting FMA and standard deviation values can be plotted on the chart to help traders identify trends and potential entry and exit points in the market.
Double RSI + BBRSI stands for Relative Strength Index.
Bollinger Bands stands for a channel open by standard deviation values plotting upper, lower lines.
Double RSI with Bollinger bands adapted Bollinger bands to RSI not using overlay mode. It tries to filter fake signals while giving more good signals according to volatility even below overbought areas or above oversold areas. This way you can use greater values for RSI, like 25 and 100, increasing smoothness with less market noise.
We added an extra gap spacer to smooth Bollinger bands while widening the channel with a lower multiplier.
I found better results when Fast RSI crosses back into Bollinger bands channel.
You can play with the following settings:
• Source
Close is the most used
• Fast RSI length
Default to 25
• Slow RSI length
Default to 100
• RSI Smoothing
To filter out some graphic noise
• RSI Overbought, Oversold
Regular overbought, oversold lines handled by a single value. For 70/30, set it to 20 although with longer RSI something around 15 is enough.
• Bollinger Spacer
Ads thickness to the channel with lower multiplier
• Bollinger Length
Regular Bollinger length applied to slow RSI
• Bollinger Multiplier
Regular Bollinger multiplier applied to slow RSI

For study purposes only, trading without a good risk management can be regrettable, do your own research, always add confirmations, use it as is, at your own risk.
Volume Weighted Hull Moving Average Bollinger Bands (VWHBB)Title: "Volume Weighted Hull Moving Average Bollinger Bands Indicator for TradingView"
Abstract: This script presents a TradingView indicator that displays Bollinger Bands based on the volume weighted Hull Moving Average (VEHMA) of a financial asset. The VEHMA is a technical analysis tool that combines the reduced lag of the Hull Moving Average (HMA) with volume weighting to provide a more sensitive indicator of market trends and dynamics. The Bollinger Bands are a volatility indicator that plot upper and lower bands around a moving average, which can help traders identify potential trend changes and overbought or oversold conditions. The script allows the user to customize the VEHMA length and Bollinger Band deviation parameters.
Introduction: Bollinger Bands are a popular technical analysis tool used to identify potential trend changes and overbought or oversold conditions in the market. They are constructed by plotting upper and lower bands around a moving average, with the width of the bands determined by the volatility of the asset. The VEHMA is a variant of the Hull Moving Average (HMA) that combines the reduced lag of the HMA with volume weighting to provide a more sensitive indicator of market trends and dynamics.
Methodology: The VEHMA is calculated using a weighted average of two exponential moving averages (EMAs), with the weighting based on the volume of the asset and the length of the moving average. The Bollinger Bands are calculated by plotting the VEHMA plus and minus a standard deviation of the asset's price over a specified period. The standard deviation is a measure of the volatility of the asset and helps to adjust the width of the bands based on market conditions.
Implementation: The script is implemented in TradingView's PineScript language and can be easily added to any chart on the platform. The user can customize the VEHMA length and Bollinger Band deviation parameters to suit their trading strategy. The VEHMA, Bollinger Bands, and fill colors are plotted on the chart to provide a visual representation of the indicator.
Conclusion: The VEHMA Bollinger Bands indicator is a useful tool for traders looking to identify potential trend changes and overbought or oversold conditions in the market. This script provides a convenient and customizable implementation of the indicator for use in TradingView.
