[blackcat] L2 Center Band BollingerLevel: 2
Background
Bollinger bands are a type of price envelope developed by John Bollinger , where price envelopes define upper and lower price ranges. Bollinger Bands are envelopes that are represented with a standard deviation above and below a simple moving average of price. Because the spacing of the bands is based on the standard deviation, they adjust for fluctuations in the volatility of the underlying price.
Function
L2 Center Band Bollinger takes advantage of Bollinger band to detect sideways and trends. At the same time, I made an improvement and the center Bollinger line as a fast-slow-line color band. The algorithm of the color center band is composed of price and volume information, which produces gold cross and dead cross for short term long and short entries.
Key Signal
aa10 --> bollinger middle fast line
aa12 --> bollinger middle slow line
up --> upper envelope
dn --> lower envelope
Pros and Cons
Pros:
1. it can easy see the sections of trends or sideways by width of Bollinger band
2. long and short entries are disclosed
Cons:
1. Some noise is still incorporated in trends
2. due to this is un-optimized version, time frame and trading pairs need to be selected
3. Bollinger re-entry signal is not disclosed yet
Remarks
The long and short signal is compatible to @nilux strategy backtest framework for sandardized backtest scheme: Backtest
Readme
In real life, I am a prolific inventor. I have successfully applied for more than 60 international and regional patents in the past 12 years. But in the past two years or so, I have tried to transfer my creativity to the development of trading strategies. Tradingview is the ideal platform for me. I am selecting and contributing some of the hundreds of scripts to publish in Tradingview community. Welcome everyone to interact with me to discuss these interesting pine scripts.
The scripts posted are categorized into 5 levels according to my efforts or manhours put into these works.
Level 1 : interesting script snippets or distinctive improvement from classic indicators or strategy. Level 1 scripts can usually appear in more complex indicators as a function module or element.
Level 2 : composite indicator/strategy. By selecting or combining several independent or dependent functions or sub indicators in proper way, the composite script exhibits a resonance phenomenon which can filter out noise or fake trading signal to enhance trading confidence level.
Level 3 : comprehensive indicator/strategy. They are simple trading systems based on my strategies. They are commonly containing several or all of entry signal, close signal, stop loss, take profit, re-entry, risk management, and position sizing techniques. Even some interesting fundamental and mass psychological aspects are incorporated.
Level 4 : script snippets or functions that do not disclose source code. Interesting element that can reveal market laws and work as raw material for indicators and strategies. If you find Level 1~2 scripts are helpful, Level 4 is a private version that took me far more efforts to develop.
Level 5 : indicator/strategy that do not disclose source code. private version of Level 3 script with my accumulated script processing skills or a large number of custom functions. I had a private function library built in past two years. Level 5 scripts use many of them to achieve private trading strategy.

Bollinger Bands Filter
Bollinger Bands is a classic indicator that uses a simple moving average of 20 periods, along with plots of upper and lower bands that are 2 standard deviations away from the basis line. These bands help visualize price volatility and trend based on where the price is, in relation to the bands.
Bollinger Bands filter plots a long signal when price closes above the upper band and plots a short signal when price closes below the lower band. It doesn't take into account any other parameters such as Volume/RSI/ Fundamentals etc, so user must use discretion based on confirmations from another indicator or based on fundamentals.
The filter works great when the price closes above/below upper/lower bands with continuation on next bar. It is definitely useful to have this filter along with other indicators to get early glimpse of breach/fail of bands on candle close during BB squeeze or based on volatility.
This can be used on Heikin Ashi candles for spotting trends, but HA candles are not recommended for trade entries as they don't reflect true price of the asset.
This filter's default is 55 SMA and 1 standard deviation, but these can be changed from settings.
It is definitely worth reading the 22 rules of Bollinger Bands written by John Bollinger.
==================================================================
Note:
1. Alerts can be created for long and short signals using "Once per bar close".
2. The indicator doesn't repaint.

Colored Directional Movement and Bollinger Band's Cloud by DGTThis study combines Bollinger Bands, one of the most popular technical analysis indicators on the market, and Directional Movement (DMI), which is another quite valuable technical analysis indicator.
Bollinger Bands used in conjunction with Directional Movement (DMI) may help getting a better understanding of the ever changing landscape of the market and perform more advanced technical analysis
Here are details of the concept applied
1- Plots Bollinger Band’s (BB) Cloud colored based on Bollinger Band Width (BBW) Indicator’s value
Definition
Bollinger Bands (created by John Bollinger ) are a way to measure volatility . As volatility increases, the wider the bands become and similarly as volatility decreases, the gap between bands narrows
Bollinger Bands, in widely used approach, consist of a band of three lines. Likewise common usage In this study a band of five lines is implemented
The line in the middle is a Simple Moving Average (SMA) set to a period of 20 bars (the most popular usage). The SMA then serves as a base for the Upper and Lower Bands. The Upper and Lower Bands are used as a way to measure volatility by observing the relationship between the Bands and price. the Upper and Lower Bands in this study are set to two and three standard deviations (widely used form is only two standard deviations) away from the SMA (The Middle Line), hence there are two Upper Bands and two Lower Bands. The background between two Upper Bands is filled with a green color and the background between two Lower Bands is filled with a red color. In this we have obtained Bollinger Band’s (BB) Clouds (Upper Cloud and Lower Cloud)
Additionally the intensity of the color of the background is calculated with Bollinger Bands Width ( BBW ), which is a technical analysis indicator derived from the standard Bollinger Bands indicator. Bollinger Bands Width, quantitatively measures the width between the Upper and Lower Bands. In this study the intensity of the color of the background is increased if BBW value is greater than %25
What to look for
Price Actions : Prices are almost always within the bands especially at this study the bands of three standard deviations away from the SMA. Price touching or breaking the BB Clouds could be considered as buying or selling opportunity. However this is not always the case, there are exceptions such as Walking the Bands. “Walking the Bands” can occur in either a strong uptrend or a strong downtrend. During a strong trend, there may be repeated instances of price touching or breaking through the BB Clouds. Each time that this occurs, it is not a signal, it is a result of the overall strength of the move. In this study in order to get a better understanding of the trend and add ability to perform some advanced technical analysis Directional Movement Indicator (DMI) is added to be used in conjunction with Bollinger Bands.
Cycling Between Expansion and Contraction : One of the most well-known theories in regards to Bollinger Bands is that volatility typically fluctuates between periods of expansion (Bands Widening : surge in volatility and price breaks through the BB Cloud) and contraction (Bands Narrowing : low volatility and price is moving relatively sideways). Using Bollinger Bands in conjunction with Bollinger Bands Width may help identifying beginning of a new directional trend which can result in some nice buying or selling signals. Of course the trader should always use caution
2- Plots Colored Directional Movement Line
Definition
Directional Movement (DMI) (created by J. Welles Wilder ) is actually a collection of three separate indicators combined into one. Directional Movement consists of the Average Directional Index (ADX) , Plus Directional Indicator (+D I) and Minus Directional Indicator (-D I) . ADX's purposes is to define whether or not there is a trend present. It does not take direction into account at all. The other two indicators (+DI and -DI) are used to compliment the ADX. They serve the purpose of determining trend direction. By combining all three, a technical analyst has a way of determining and measuring a trend's strength as well as its direction.
This study combines all three lines in a single colored shapes series plotted on the top of the price chart indicating the trend strength with different colors and its direction with triangle up and down shapes.
What to look for
Trend Strength : Analyzing trend strength is the most basic use for the DMI. Wilder believed that a DMI reading above 25 indicated a strong trend, while a reading below 20 indicated a weak or non-existent trend
Crosses : DI Crossovers are the significant trading signal generated by the DMI
With this study
A Strong Trend is assumed when ADX >= 25
Bullish Trend is defined as (+D I > -DI ) and (ADX >= 25), which is plotted as green triangle up shape on top of the price chart
Bearish Trend is defined as (+D I < -DI ) and (ADX >= 25), which is plotted as red triangle down shape on top of the price chart
Week Trend is assumed when 17< ADX < 25, which is plotted as black triangles up or down shape, depending on +DI-DI values, on top of the price chart
Non-Existent Trend is assumed when ADX < 17, which is plotted as yellow triangles up or down shape, depending on +DI-DI values, on top of the price chart
Additionally intensity of the colors used in all cases above are defined by comparing ADX’s current value with its previous value
Summary of the Study:
Even more simplified and visually enhanced DMI drawing comparing to its classical usage (may require a bit practice to get used to it)
As said previously, to get a better understanding of the trend and add ability to perform some advanced technical analysis Directional Movement Indicator (DMI) is used in conjunction with Bollinger Bands.

Custom Band Strategy1. Trend
if ema200 > ema30 Long entry only
else Short entry only
2. Custom Band
Upper band = sma(period) + max(close, period) * multiplier
Lower band = sma(period) - max(close, period) * multiplier
Multiplier can be either 1.3 or 1.1 depending on the trend.
(If trend is long, upper band's factor would be 1.3, lower band be 1.1)
2. Long entry condition
- Cross over the lower band and band width is greater than (close price)*2.2%(assume this band width as an expected ROE)
- Previous candle change rate((close-open)/open*100) is less than 3%.
3. Short entry condition
- Cross under the upper band and band width is greater than (close price)*2.2%
- Previous candle change rate is less than 3%.
4. Long/Short exit condition
- cross over/under the lower/upper band and roe is higher than 2%.
5. Stop/Target condition
- Target 10%, Stoploss 3%
- Previous candle change rate is higher than 3%.
Most variables can be set manually.
Test period changeable.
[TH] Adaptive Trend : StrategyAdaptive Trend : Strategy
*** It should be used with 'heikin ashi' chart ***
Super Trend
Basically, it is super trend strategy ( Rajandran R Supertrend )
- My idea is,
1. (scale) Factor of super trend is related with sensitivity of Up/Down trend change
2. Constant Factor cause failure of super trend strategy when market prices variance is low ( ie. high Factor ==> miss short trend )
3. By using variance measure ( like BollingerBand ) as a varying Factor, maybe we can catch short trend and long trend together
Loss Cut
The silver thick line is loss cut line & silver background means exit position status
I found that silver background is appear usually when price moves horizontally
1. It is set to open price of actual position entry ( heikin ashi chart's open price = loss cut line = (open + close)/2 )
2. If position is long
==> loss cut is executed when low price is lower than loss cut line
==> re-entry when low price is higher than loss cut line
3. If Position is short
==> loss cut is executed when high price is higher than loss cut line
==> re-entry when high price is lower than loss cut lin
ChannelBreakOutStrategyV2.1This is the basic strategy that uses the price breakout of BollingerBands.
[MV] %B with SMA + Volume Based Colored Bars
Entry Signal when %B Crosses with SMA and this is more meaningful if it supports colored bars.
Black Bar when prices go down and volume is bigger than 150% of its average, that indicates us price action is supported by a strong bearish volume
Blue Bar when prices go up and volume bigger than 150% of its average, that indicates us price action is supported by a strong bullish volume
VBC author @KIVANCfr3762
MFI * %B [seiglerj]Oscillator averaging Money Flow Index and Bollinger Bands' %B
Colored bars indicate buy or sell signals
I have no idea if this is the right way to combine these two, but I'm gonna try it and see what happens
RSI Bands, RSI %B and RSI BandwidthRSI bands provide an intuitive way of visualizing how the price movement causes RSI to move with in its range (0-100). Upper/Lower bands signify overbought and oversold levels respectively (Default: 70/30, you can customize them via options page). These bands closely match what Constance Brown explains in her book "Technical Analysis for the Trading Professional".
I have also coded up 2 scripts to visualize %B and Bandwidth, just as in BollingerBands. As you can see %B is equivalent to the actual RSI. Along with RSI_Bandwidth and %B, the bands convey a lot of information.
Another tip is to render Bollinger Bands along with RSIBands...endless possibilities :)
I have included all 3 scripts in the same chart, as they are all related. Since TradingView doesn't allow sharing more than one script in the same chart, you can only "Add script" RSI Bands.
If you want to use RSI %B and Bandwidth, follow this guide to "Make mine" this chart and get access to the source:

Indicators: Traders Dynamic Index, HLCTrends and Trix Ribbon1) Trix Ribbon
===============================================================
This was built on request. Many Stock/FX traders overlay multiple Trix lines to form the ribbon, this indicator makes it easy.
Also, optionally this can plot a BollingerBand on Trix_1.
More info on Trix:
stockcharts.com
2) High/Low/Close Trend Indicator
===============================================================
Simple indicator using EMAs of H/L/C. If blue line is above the red line, the trend is up, else down. Keep an eye on the zero line too.
3) Traders Dynamic Index
===============================================================
This hybrid indicator helps to decipher and monitor market conditions related to trend direction, market strength, and market volatility.
TDI has the following components:
* Green line = RSI Price line
* Red line = Trade Signal line
* Blue lines = Volatility Bands
* Orange line = Market Base Line
Trend Direction - Immediate and Overall:
----------------------------------------------------
* Immediate = Green over Red...price action is moving up.
Red over Green...price action is moving down.
* Overall = Orange line trends up and down generally between the lines 32 & 68. Watch for Orange line to bounces off these lines for market reversal. Trade long when price is above the Orange line, and trade short when price is below.
Market Strength & Volatility - Immediate and Overall:
----------------------------------------------------
* Immediate = Green Line - Strong = Steep slope up or down.
Weak = Moderate to Flat slope.
* Overall = Blue Lines - When expanding, market is strong and trending. When constricting, market is weak and in a range. When the Blue lines are extremely tight in a narrow range, expect an economic announcement or other market condition to spike the market.
Entry conditions:
----------------------------------------------------
* Scalping - Long = Green over Red,
Short = Red over Green
* Active - Long = Green over Red & Orange lines
Short = Red over Green & Orange lines
* Moderate - Long = Green over Red, Orange, & 50 lines
Short= Red over Green, Green below Orange & 50 line
Exit conditions:
----------------------------------------------------
If Green crosses either Blue lines, consider exiting when the Green line crosses back over the Blue line.
* Long = Green crosses below Red
* Short = Green crosses above Red

Momentum Fusion v1Momentum Fusion v1
Overview
Momentum Fusion v1 (MFusion) is a multi-oscillator indicator that combines several components to analyze market momentum and trend strength. It incorporates modified versions of classic indicators such as PVI (Positive Volume Index), NVI (Negative Volume Index), MFI (Money Flow Index), RSI, Stochastic, and Bollinger Bands Oscillator. The indicator displays a histogram that changes color based on momentum strength and includes "FUSION🔥" signal labels when extreme values are reached.
Indicator Settings
Parameters:
EMA Length – Smoothing period for the moving average (default: 255).
Smoothing Period – Internal calculation smoothing parameter (default: 15).
BB Multiplier – Standard deviation multiplier for Bollinger Bands (default: 2.0).
Show verde / marron / media lines – Toggles the display of auxiliary lines.
Show FUSION🔥 label – Enables/disables signal labels.
Indicator Components
1. PVI (Positive Volume Index)
Formula:
pvi := volume > volume ? nz(pvi ) + (close - close ) / close * sval : nz(pvi )
Description:
PVI increases when volume rises compared to the previous bar and accounts for price percentage change. The stronger the price movement with increasing volume, the higher the PVI value.
2. NVI (Negative Volume Index)
Formula:
nvi := volume < volume ? nz(nvi ) + (close - close ) / close * sval : nz(nvi )
Description:
NVI tracks price movements during declining volume. If the price rises on low volume, it may indicate a "stealth" trend.
3. Money Flow Index (MFI)
Formula:
100 - 100 / (1 + up / dn)
Description:
An oscillator measuring money flow strength. Values above 80 suggest overbought conditions, while values below 20 indicate oversold conditions.
4. Stochastic Oscillator
Formula:
k = 100 * (close - lowest(low, length)) / (highest(high, length) - lowest(low, length))
Description:
A classic stochastic oscillator showing price position relative to the selected period's range.
5. Bollinger Bands Oscillator
Formula:
(tprice - BB midline) / (upper BB - lower BB) * 100
Description:
Indicates the price position relative to Bollinger Bands in percentage terms.
Key Lines & Histogram
1. Verde (Green Line)
Calculation:
verde = marron + oscp (normalized PVI)
Interpretation:
Higher values indicate stronger bullish momentum. A FUSION🔥 signal appears when the value reaches 750+.
2. Marron (Brown Line)
Calculation:
marron = (RSI + MFI + Bollinger Osc + Stochastic / 3) / 2
Interpretation:
A composite oscillator combining multiple indicators. Higher values suggest overbought conditions.
3. Media (Red Line)
Calculation:
media = EMA of marron with smoothing period
Interpretation:
Acts as a signal line for trend confirmation.
4. Histogram
Calculation:
histo = verde - marron
Colors:
Bright green (>100) – Strong bullish momentum.
Light green (>0) – Moderate bullish momentum.
Orange (<0) – Bearish momentum.
Red (<-100) – Strong bearish momentum.
Signals & Alerts
1. FUSION🔥 (Strong Momentum)
Condition:
verde >= 750
Visualization:
A "FUSION🔥" label appears below the chart.
Alert:
Can be set to trigger notifications when the condition is met.
2. Background Aura
Condition:
verde > 850
Visualization:
The chart background turns teal, indicating extreme momentum.
Usage Recommendations
FUSION🔥 Signal – Can be used as a long entry point when confirmed by other indicators.
Histogram:
1. Green bars – Potential long entry.
2. Red/orange bars – Potential short entry.
3. Media & Marron Crossover – Can serve as an additional trend filter.
4. Suitable for a 5-15 minute time frame
Conclusion
Momentum Fusion v1 is a powerful tool for momentum analysis, combining multiple indicators into a unified system. It is suitable for:
Trend traders (catching strong movements).
Scalpers (identifying short-term impulses).
Swing traders (filtering entry points).
The indicator features customizable settings and visual signals, making it adaptable to various trading styles.
Dual Bollinger BandsIndicator Name:
Double Bollinger Bands (2-9 & 2-20)
Description:
This indicator plots two sets of Bollinger Bands on a single chart for enhanced volatility and trend analysis:
Fast Bands (2-9 Length) – Voilet
More responsive to short-term price movements.
Useful for spotting quick reversals or scalping opportunities.
Slow Bands (2-20 Length) – Black
Smoother, trend-following bands for longer-term context.
Helps confirm broader market direction.
Both bands use the standard settings (2 deviations, SMA basis) for consistency. The transparent fills improve visual clarity while keeping the chart uncluttered.
Use Cases:
Trend Confirmation: When both bands expand together, it signals strong momentum.
Squeeze Alerts: A tight overlap suggests low volatility before potential breakouts.
Multi-Timeframe Analysis: Compare short-term vs. long-term volatility in one view.
How to Adjust:
Modify lengths (2-9 and 2-20) in the settings.
Change colors or transparency as needed.
Why Use This Script?
No Repainting – Uses standard Pine Script functions for reliability.
Customizable – Easy to tweak for different trading styles.
Clear Visuals – Color-coded bands with background fills for better readability.
Ideal For:
Swing traders, day traders, and volatility scalpers.
Combining short-term and long-term Bollinger Band strategies.
Double Bollinger Bands MTF and Price projectionI did this script because I wanted to project prices over future bars quickly because I am a options trader.
Options:
Time frame: Default is Chart
Some times I prefer using 15 m with period 200 on a daily chart in a fast moving market. But you can chose what suites you
BB inner deviation 1 is default
When BB inner deviation=1 the outer will be 2X if its 0.5 outer will be 1
Moving Average type : Default EMA
Project next bar in label Default is off
This will calculate a linear projection of price of each band for the number of bars requested and print them in the label. It does not plot the future values
Using: in a trending market the prices will be generally be between band1 and band 2
and other times between -band1 and +band1. The projection can assist in optimal option strategy. Also in a fast moving market I would use 10 period ema for accurate price projections and others 20
Tri-Fold BB(Trend-Strength)*indicator isn't preset to look as displayed, do so accordingly*
"Tri-Fold BB" is an indicator that utilizes three Bollinger Bands, each of different length as a way to represent trend strength. This allows one to see the trend strength relative to multiple timeframes: short, mid, and long term trend strength. This is helpful because it provides the user with a holistic view of the asset.
How it Works
The indicator is preset to utilizing three different Bollinger Bands with length: 20, 50, and 100. This indicator simply plots the price of an asset relative to its specified Bollinger Band. For an example, if the price of the asset were to surpass its 20BB standard deviations, it would display so accordingly, though from the perspective of lets say... the 100, it may have looked like it barely moved up a standard deviation relative to 100BB because the standard deviations of a 100BB are more spread out.
Its important to view the trend strength from multiple lengths because it allows one to gauge whether the short term trend strength is likely to hold or not. A better way to speculate on asset behavior.
Another way to view this indicator is similar to that of the BB% indicator, except this indicator allows us to view price relative to standard deviations, across multiple timeframes. More holistic, more utility provided.
Basic Understanding:
Each line = Standard Deviation (3 upper, 3 lower)
Mid-Line = Basis relative to BB(20sma, 50sma, 100sma)
If price goes under Basis, that means it crossed below their specified sma(significant bull or bear signal)
I've also added HMA's relative to each BB incase one were to decide in creating some sort of trading strategy with it. I personally don't use them but I understand that it could be helpful to some so I left it in there. If you don't like them then simply deselect them and then save your desired setup as default.
In regard to regular indications of bullish or bearishness, i'd like to add that I use this indicator for the sole purpose of providing an idea of trend strength. I personally am unsure to state that cross overs directly indicate that there is a bull or bear move because I've seen instances where the price of an asset went in a direction contrary to what it 'should' have if we were to use that cross over strategy. Though of course, feel free to use this indicator as desired.
Bollinger Bands Reversal Strategy Analyzer█ OVERVIEW
The Bollinger Bands Reversal Overlay is a versatile trading tool designed to help traders identify potential reversal opportunities using Bollinger Bands. It provides visual signals, performance metrics, and a detailed table to analyze the effectiveness of reversal-based strategies over a user-defined lookback period.
█ KEY FEATURES
Bollinger Bands Calculation
The indicator calculates the standard Bollinger Bands, consisting of:
A middle band (basis) as the Simple Moving Average (SMA) of the closing price.
An upper band as the basis plus a multiple of the standard deviation.
A lower band as the basis minus a multiple of the standard deviation.
Users can customize the length of the Bollinger Bands and the multiplier for the standard deviation.
Reversal Signals
The indicator identifies potential reversal signals based on the interaction between the price and the Bollinger Bands.
Two entry strategies are available:
Revert Cross: Waits for the price to close back above the lower band (for longs) or below the upper band (for shorts) after crossing it.
Cross Threshold: Triggers a signal as soon as the price crosses the lower band (for longs) or the upper band (for shorts).
Trade Direction
Users can select a trade bias:
Long: Focuses on bullish reversal signals.
Short: Focuses on bearish reversal signals.
Performance Metrics
The indicator calculates and displays the performance of trades over a user-defined lookback period ( barLookback ).
Metrics include:
Win Rate: The percentage of trades that were profitable.
Mean Return: The average return across all trades.
Median Return: The median return across all trades.
These metrics are calculated for each bar in the lookback period, providing insights into the strategy's performance over time.
Visual Signals
The indicator plots buy and sell signals on the chart:
Buy Signals: Displayed as green triangles below the price bars.
Sell Signals: Displayed as red triangles above the price bars.
Performance Table
A customizable table is displayed on the chart, showing the performance metrics for each bar in the lookback period.
The table includes:
Win Rate: Highlighted with gradient colors (green for high win rates, red for low win rates).
Mean Return: Colored based on profitability (green for positive returns, red for negative returns).
Median Return: Colored similarly to the mean return.
Time Filtering
Users can define a specific time window for the indicator to analyze trades, ensuring that performance metrics are calculated only for the desired period.
Customizable Display
The table's font size can be adjusted to suit the user's preference, with options for "Auto," "Small," "Normal," and "Large."
█ PURPOSE
The Bollinger Bands Reversal Overlay is designed to:
Help traders identify high-probability reversal opportunities using Bollinger Bands.
Provide actionable insights into the performance of reversal-based strategies.
Enable users to backtest and optimize their trading strategies by analyzing historical performance metrics.
█ IDEAL USERS
Swing Traders: Looking for reversal opportunities within a trend.
Mean Reversion Traders: Interested in trading price reversals to the mean.
Strategy Developers: Seeking to backtest and refine Bollinger Bands-based strategies.
Performance Analysts: Wanting to evaluate the effectiveness of reversal signals over time.
Adaptive Range Scalper - KetBotAIThe Adaptive Scalper is designed to dynamically adjust entry, take-profit (TP), and stop-loss (SL) levels based on the latest market price. It combines multiple tools to provide traders with actionable insights, suitable for a range of trading styles and timeframes.
How the Indicator Works
Dynamic Levels:
- Yellow Dotted Line: Represents the entry level, following the latest price dynamically.
- Green Line: The Take Profit (TP) level, calculated as a multiple of the current price, adapts in real-time.
- Red Line: The Stop Loss (SL) level, placed below the price and also dynamically adjusts.
Bollinger Bands:
Provides context for market volatility and potential overbought/oversold zones.
Narrowing bands signal consolidation, while expanding bands indicate increased volatility.
Buy and Sell Signals:
Buy Signal: Triggered when the price crosses above the lower Bollinger Band.
Sell Signal: Triggered when the price crosses below the upper Bollinger Band.
These signals help traders time entries and exits based on momentum shifts.
Risk/Reward Analysis:
Visual shading shows the favorable risk/reward zone between the stop loss and take profit levels.
Timeframe Suggestions
Short-Term Traders (Scalping):
Use on 5-minute to 15-minute charts.
Focus on high-volatility periods for quick entries and exits.
Intraday Traders:
Ideal for 30-minute to 1-hour charts.
Provides more stable signals and less noise.
Swing Traders:
Best suited for 4-hour or daily charts.
Captures broader trends with fewer signals, allowing for larger moves.
Tool Combination
Volume Profile:
Combine with volume-based tools to confirm key support/resistance zones around TP and SL levels.
Trend Indicators:
Use with Moving Averages (e.g., 20-period or 50-period) to identify the broader trend direction.
Example: Only take buy signals in an uptrend and sell signals in a downtrend.
Momentum Oscillators:
Pair with tools like RSI or MACD to avoid entering overbought/oversold conditions.
Support/Resistance Lines:
Manually mark significant levels to confirm alignment with the indicator’s TP and SL zones.
Useful Advice for Traders
Risk Management:
- Always assess the risk/reward ratio; aim for at least 1:2 (risking 1 to gain 2).
- Adjust the multiplier to match your trading style (e.g., higher multiplier for swing trades, lower for scalping).
Avoid Overtrading:
Use the indicator in conjunction with clear rules to avoid false signals during low-volatility periods.
Monitor market volatility:
Pay attention to narrowing Bollinger Bands, which signal consolidations. Avoid trading until a breakout occurs.
Test on Demo Accounts:
Practice using the indicator on a demo account to understand its behavior across different assets and timeframes.
Focus on High-Liquidity Markets:
For the best results, trade highly liquid instruments like major currency pairs, gold, or stock indices.
Summary
The Adaptive Range Indicator dynamically adjusts to market conditions, offering clear entry and exit levels. By combining it with Bollinger Bands and other tools, traders can better navigate market trends and avoid noise. It’s versatile across multiple timeframes and assets, making it a valuable addition to any trader’s toolkit.
Multifactor Buy/Sell Strategy V2 | RSI, MACD, ATR, EMA, Boll.BITGET:1INCHUSDT
This Pine Script code for TradingView is a multifactor Buy/Sell indicator that combines several technical factors to generate trading signals based on trend, volatility, and volume conditions. Here’s a breakdown of the main components and functionality:
Indicator Name
- Multifactor Buy/Sell Strategy V2 — an overlay indicator applied directly on the price chart.
### Input Parameters
The script includes multiple customizable parameters:
- RSI, EMA, MACD parameters — for setting periods and signals of MACD and RSI.
- ATR and Bollinger Bands — used for volatility analysis and level determination.
- Minimum Volatility Threshold — sets a minimum Bollinger Band width threshold for determining high volatility.
Core Indicators
1. RSI — calculated to identify oversold (below 30) and overbought (above 70) conditions.
2. EMA and MACD — calculates exponential moving averages and MACD histogram to determine trend direction.
3. ATR and Bollinger Bands — used to assess current volatility and establish dynamic upper and lower bands.
Volatility and Volume Analysis
- Determines the current ATR level and Bollinger Band width to evaluate high volatility.
- Calculates the volume moving average to track periods of increased volume during high volatility.
Trend Analysis
The script uses the difference between fast and slow EMAs to define strong trends:

E9 Bollinger RangeThe E9 Bollinger Range is a technical trading tool that leverages Bollinger Bands to track volatility and price deviations, along with additional trend filtering via EMAs.
The script visually enhances price action with a combination of trend-filtering EMAs, bar colouring for trend direction, signals to indicate potential buy and sell points based on price extension and engulfing patterns.
Here’s a breakdown of its key components:
Bollinger Bands: The strategy plots multiple Bollinger Band deviations to create different price levels. The furthest deviation bands act as warning signs for traders when price extends significantly, signaling potential overbought or oversold conditions.
Bar Colouring: Visual bar colouring is applied to clearly indicate trend direction: green bars for an uptrend and red bars for a downtrend.
EMA Filtering: Two EMAs (50 and 200) are used to help filter out false signals, giving traders a better sense of the underlying trend.
This combination of signals, visual elements, and trend filtering provides traders with a systematic approach to identifying price deviations and taking advantage of market corrections.
Brief History of Bollinger Bands
Bollinger Bands were developed by John Bollinger in the early 1980s as a tool to measure price volatility in financial markets. The bands consist of a moving average (typically 20 periods) with upper and lower bands placed two standard deviations away. These bands expand and contract based on market volatility, offering traders a visual representation of price extremes and potential reversal zones.
John Bollinger’s work revolutionized technical analysis by incorporating volatility into trend detection. His bands remain widely used across markets, including stocks, commodities, and cryptocurrencies. With the ability to highlight overbought and oversold conditions, Bollinger Bands have become a staple in many trading strategies.

🔍 How It Works
The Hullinger Bands indicator calculates a central line (basis) using a simple moving average, while the upper and lower bands are derived from a modified standard deviation of price movements. Unlike the traditional Bollinger Bands, the standard deviation in the Hullinger bands uses the Hull Moving Average instead of the Simple Moving Average to calculate the average variance for standard deviation calculations, this give the modified standard deviation output "memory" and the bands can be observed expanding even after the price has started consolidating, this can identify when the trend has exhausted better as the distance between the price and the bands is more apparent. The color of the bands changes dynamically, based on the proximity of the closing price to the bands, providing instant visual cues for market sentiment. The indicator also plots TP signals when price crosses these bands, allowing traders to make informed decisions. Additionally, alerts are configured to notify you of crucial market shifts, ensuring you stay ahead of the curve.
Ahsan Tufail Precise MA Crossover Filter for Reliable SignalsIntroduction:
In the ever-evolving world of Forex trading, strategies that provide a competitive edge are highly sought after. The Moving Average (MA) crossover technique is a popular long-term approach, but its vulnerability to false signals can lead to potential losses. To overcome this challenge, we introduce a game-changing MA crossover filter designed to weed out false signals and unlock the full potential of this strategy. In this article, we delve into the mechanics of this filter, providing a comprehensive analysis of its components and how it enhances the accuracy of buy and sell signals.
The Power of the MA Crossover Filter:
The essence of our MA crossover filter lies in the integration of a specialized indicator that operates on a scale of 0 to 100. This ingenious indicator dynamically measures the distance between the middle Bollinger band and either the upper or lower Bollinger band. By analyzing the values of the last 504 candlesticks, it maps the range from 50 to 100 for the largest and smallest distances between the middle and upper Bollinger bands. Similarly, for values ranging from 0 to 50, it measures the distance between the middle and lower Bollinger bands.
Unveiling the Signal Execution Process:
The brilliance of this filter is revealed in its meticulous execution of buy and sell signals, which significantly reduces false crossovers. Let's explore the process step-by-step:
Buy Signal Precision:
To initiate a buy signal, the price must be positioned above the 200-period Simple Moving Average (SMA).
The filter validates the crossover by checking the indicator's value, ensuring it falls below the threshold of 25.
Sell Signal Accuracy:
For a sell signal, the price must be below the 200-period Simple Moving Average (SMA).
The filter confirms the crossover by verifying the indicator's value, which should exceed the threshold of 75.
This selective approach ensures that only high-confidence crossovers are considered, maximizing the potential for profitable trades.
Fine-Tuning the Filter for Optimal Performance:
While the MA crossover filter exhibits its prowess in GBPUSD and EURUSD currency pairs, it may require adjustments for other pairs. Currency pairs possess unique characteristics, and adapting the filter to specific behavior is crucial for its success.
To fine-tune the filter for alternative currency pairs, traders should conduct rigorous backtesting and analyze historical price data. By experimenting with indicator threshold values, traders can calibrate the filter to accurately match the dynamics of the target currency pair. This iterative process allows for customization, ultimately resulting in a finely-tuned filter that aligns with the unique behavior of the selected market.
Conclusion:
The MA crossover filter represents a paradigm shift in long-term Forex trading strategies. By intelligently filtering false signals, this precision tool unleashes the true potential of the MA crossover technique, elevating its profitability and enhancing overall trading performance. While no strategy guarantees absolute success, incorporating this filter empowers traders with a heightened level of confidence in their buy and sell signals. Embracing the power of this innovative filter can be a transformative step towards mastering Forex profits and staying ahead in the dynamic world of currency trading.
