RedK Smooth And Lazy Moving Average (SALMA)Here's a quick and simple script that produces yet another Smooth and Lazy Moving Average - SALMA - that helps hide noise caused by extreme price fluctuations to enable better trend visualization and tracking
Concept:
===========
SALMA is based on a simple concept - we calculate a standard deviation channel of a user-selected width - then correct the price value so that it is restricted within the boundaries of the SD channel - effectively adjusting against high-volatility, sudden price moves - which acts as a pre-smoothing of the price values - then we calculate our moving average and apply extra smoothing as needed.
Since only "persistent" price moves will have an effect on the direction of this MA, it will be suitable to use as an additional trend guide with other indicators, and to consider only long positions when the price is above the SALMA, and short positions only when the price is below
Notes:
========
- for the time being, i'm using Weighted Moving Average (WMA) for the calculation of the base price MA and the SD channel - we can add other MA types as options in a future versions based on feedback
- will add alerts in a future update
- SALMA can be used with any timeframe. can also be set to a higher timeframe against a lower timeframe chart
i have also added couple of standard moving average lines (choose between SMA, EMA and WMA) of selectable lengths - to enable utilizing this in a Moving Average cross-over setup - or to simply monitor other common MA's that other traders are using.
here's how the settings look like when you add SALMA to your chart
Please feel free to play around with SALMA and share feedback :)

Chimpanzee V2.5 part A by joylay83Hi everyone, I am an amateur pinecoder. I would like to share my script which is coded with the intention of generating signals to send to 3commas webhook. It is still in development and revision.
This collection of indicators use:
Chart: 15m.
Inverse Fisher Transformation of the RSI to detect dips in the 15m timeframe.
Bollinger band (4H) to filter out false signals.
Triple EMA 21: to mimic price action for easier coding alerts. Currently not involved in generating signals. will be incorporated in the future.
StochRSI: As a visual filter. Currently not involved in generating signals. will be incorporated in the future.
Background will be green if stochRSI is low and red if stockRSI is high.
Candlesticks will be marked with a flag is TEMA breached BB.
One would need to play around with timeframes, BB settings and IFTRSI threshold for different signals.
There are 2 Signal Modes (with regards to IFTRSI):
Threshold: When price action falls below BB and IFTRSI hits buy threshold, a buy/sell signal is generated. Eg if IFTRSI buy threshold is set to -0.9, the buy signal will remain continuously positive as long as IFTRSI is < 0.9.
Cross: When price action falls below BB and IFTRSI hits threshold, nothing happens. It will wait until the IFTRSI cross back over the threshold before firing a signal.
There is another identical set of indicators running on a higher time frame (IFTRSI: 4H, BB: D or 3D, TEMA 21 4H) but on the same chart. This tend to generate less signals but are more reliable. A usage example would be to send a larger buy order if the signal comes from this higher time frame, or execute a sell order after multiple buys from the lower time frame.
It comes in 2 parts:
Part A: Contains overlay display. This displays BB, Triple EMA, buy/sell and StochRSI in labels. the labels are self explanatory.
Part B (please search for it): which is actually the same code but contain non-overlay display. You may also put part B overlay=true but scale to LEFT. The advantage of using overlay=true is that you can move the signal right over the candlesticks (mainly for troubleshooting/debugging). This part contains Inverse Fisher RSI, %B, Signal Line. %B is supposedly idential to Bollinger Bands in Part A.
By default, when there is a buy/sell signal:
lower time frame 15m: Signal Line in Part B will turn blue with a value 1 or -1 which corresponds to a buy or sell label in Part A
higher time frame 4H: Signal Line in Part B will turn red with a value 2 or -2 which corresponds to a HTF buy or sell label in Part A
Part A or B may be used to send signal to the webhook. You have to make sure that the settings of Part A and B are identical.
You may choose to un-display some items to reduce clutter.
Current problems:
1. Still too many buy signals
Although many times it will generate excellent buy signal at many swing lows, but there are many buy signals prior to a major swing low. This can be observed in the picture above. It also generate a couple of buy signals prior to the swing lows. I am currently experimenting with 20m and hourly timeframe to address this issue. More filters are needed eg an oscillator or detecting candlestick patterns.
2. Premature sell signals.
The sell signal is often generated at the beginning of a major bull run. My idea to solve this problem is to move to a higher timeframe and sell only when TEMA crossunder the upper bollinger band.
3. Lack of a backtester that can test multiple concurrent deals.
Buy -> Buy (average down) -> Buy (average down) -> Buy (average down) -> Sell
4. Lack of the ability to calculate average purchase price
Probably have to code it as a strategy
5. Display lag
As the browser is running 2 copies of the idential script, it tends to lag when you drag your chart around. So far there are no timeouts or delay in firing alerts to 3commas.
I do welcome any suggestion for improvement and constructive criticism. tqvm.

Multiple Timeframe (Moving Average) With InfoThis indicator combine 4 indicator in one pine script : Main indicator is Moving Average in multiple timeframes, Bollinger Band, Crossover Signal, Info Panel, 52Weeks High & 52 Weeks Low.
1)
For multiple moving average, it has 9 difference timeframes.
- Default timeframes is (1minute, 5minutes, 15minutes, 30minutes, 1hour, 4hours, 1Day, 1Week & 1Month). User also have choices to change the option.
- For Moving Average, there also available multiple choice of Moving Average : SMA , EMA , DEMA , VWMA , RMA, WMA . Default Moving Average is EMA (200)
- There also include info panel / table that show TF (Timeframes) for every MAs, & their price. Colors change according to current price. Bullish = Green, Neutral = Neutral, Bearish = Red
There are also function for user to turn on/off :
- (MA) Type & Lenght.
- Multiple MAs.
- Info / Table
User can use multiple line in daily chart to find support & resistance .
Example : For uptrend stock, candle close on top of EMA200 line for 1 hour timeframe. So it's can becomes immediate support, while the other EMAs on below is their next support.
Example :
For downtrend stock, candle close on top of EMA200 line for 5minutes timeframe. So it's become support, while the other EMAs on top is their resistance.
Example :
This Multiple MAs Inspired by xdecow :
www.tradingview.com
Checkout his Multi Timeframe Moving Average here :
2)
This indicator also have Bollingger Band. User have option to turn it on / off. User can use it as a target price if all the EMAs below the candle.
Example :
3)
This indicator also shown 52 Weeks High & 52 Weeks Low. User have option to turn it on / off. Their price also shown at the info panel.
Example :
4)
Crossover Signal. This crossover is default, it happen when candle close on top / near timeframe 5Minutes is (Ready). While candle close below timeframe 5Minutes is (Caution). User can choice other shape if they don't want the text label. To change the crossover for other setup, user can change it under = #2. The crossover only shown in past 10 candle.
Example :
Feel free to use it & comment. Thanks.
Bollinger Band CloudThis script shows a cloud of Bollinger bands of various period lengths surrounding price action.
The bands can be set to 1.25, 2.25 or 3.25 standard deviations.
Functionally, where bands start to converge, especially using 1.25sd, indicates fairly reliable support/resistance. If price action breaks through, price may start trending.
There is also an option to flag price action that breaks through 3.2sd for periods lengths greater than 14. When this happens, watch for a possible stall or reversal.
This concept is merely standing on the shoulders of @acatwithcharts and @dadshark, and I highly recommend using this alongside their indicators. Do yourself a big favor and get to know their work on Advanced Volatility Theory.
Creentrend Pressure SignalsThe hull moving average is my favorite moving average, as well as slower (55ma Bollinger Bands dev@(1.618)) is my favorite standard deviation indicator. Lets combine the two to evaluate overbought, oversold, and pressure.
Use for all time frames- I PREFER daily.
Bollinger band MA at 55
Hull ma at 55
The Hull is more reactive and faster than any band on the BB (both at 55)
When HULL closes BELOW LOWER BAND- it will print a buy signal, remember- over sold and overbought in VOLATILITY could be dangerous on low time frames, as swift moves typically have short term reversals but return to the main trend eventually, this is why i reccomend daily candles.
When PRICE closes ABOVE UPPER BOLLINGER BAND- it will print a green ^ signal under candle indicating upward pressure.
When HULL closes ABOVE UPPER BOLLINGER BAND- it will print a red resistance line. Complex tops happen a lot with bitcoin so take a 1-5% stop above it if shorting.
Swing Assassin's Consolidated ScriptI put this script together to essentially consolidate a number of scripts that I use on a daily basis into one script. This is an ongoing improvement effort, so there may be some garbage in here right now so keep that in mind if you intend to use this to help in your trading.
There are 5 moving averages (Hull). I use the Fast, Mid and Slow to find entries after I us the Medium Slow and Super Slow to identify a trend. Otherwise, I have those three turned off.
This script also uses Bollinger Bands which I literally cannot trade without.
The script also has anchored VWAP , automated support/resistance lines, and a homebrewed Volume Profile that is a copy from Ildar Akhmetgaleev's indicator "Poor Man's Volume Profile" used under Mozilla Public License Version 2.0.
RSI Rising Crypto Trending AlertAlert version of the strategy with the same name
This is crypto and stock market trending strategy designed for long timeframes such as 4h+
From my tests it looks like it works better to trade crypto against crypto than trading against fiat.
Indicators used:
RSI for rising/falling of the trend
BB sidemarket
ROC sidemarket
Rules for entry
For long: RSI values are rising, and bb and roc tells us we are not in a sidemarket
For long: RSI values are falling, and bb and roc tells us we are not in a sidemarket
Rules for exit
We exit when we receive an opposite direction.
Cuation: Because this strategy uses no risk management, I recommend you takje care with it.
If you have any questions, let me know !
Advanced RSIThis is what I call the advanced RSI. It employs Bollinger bands on the RSI itself, in order to better highlight extremes that are still within the typical 30-70 range on.
You'll notice some background highlights. These are simply to mark the extremes.
Orange marks your standard overbought, Red marks oversold.
Fuchsia marks an RSI outside the lower deviation on the Bollinger Bands. Green marks an RSI outside the upper deviation on the Bollinger bands.
Typically while in an uptrend, the RSI dropping below the lower deviation indicates an entry point (fuchsia). The same applies for a downtrend with the RSI rising above the upper deviation (green).
You can look at the overlap in colors as even stronger indications because on a more rare occasion you will have the RSI outside the upper/lower deviation as well as being outside the typical oversold/overbought levels.
Any feedback is welcome! I try to employ contrasting colors, but they may not make sense to you so change them as you please - they are simply markers.
Logarithmic Bollinger BandsThe existing Bollinger Bands simply used price to derive the standard deviation.
In other words, whether an asset goes up or down by $50 from $100, it counts at the same "50$".
But in the asset market, an increase of $50 and a fall of $50 have different values.
To eliminate this difference using a logarithmic function, a new Bollinger Band was created.
Green is the original Bollinger Band.
As mentioned above, a sharp lower band is formed by calculating the rise and fall of an asset with the same value.
Blue is the Logarithmic Bollinger band.
Please make this indicator useful!
기존의 볼린저 밴드는 단순하게 가격을 이용해 표준편차를 도출해내었습니다.
즉 자산이 100$에서 50$이 오르든 내리든 같은 "50$"로 계산한 것입니다.
하지만 자산시장에서 50$이 오르는 것과 50$이 내리는 것은 다른 가치를 가집니다.
이 차이를 로그함수를 이용해 없애보고자 하였고, 새로운 볼린저밴드를 만들었습니다.
초록색이 기존의 볼린저밴드입니다.
위에서 말했듯이 자산의 오르내림을 같은 가치로 계산해서 급격한 아래 밴드가 형성됩니다.
파란색이 로그 볼린저밴드입니다.
이 지표를 유용하게 사용해주세요!
BB+RSI+EMA BUY/SELL SignalsBINANCE:BTCUSDT
* * * TESTED ON BTCUSDT 4H CHART * * *
The indicator gives signals based on candles touching BB lines and RSI oversold/overbought conditions, also a 200 EMA filter is used to trade following the major trend.
Only LONG signals are given.
Signals are divided in 3 categories based on their strenght:
- Weak BUY/SELL (green/red circles on chart)
- normal BUY/SELL (green/red triangles with "BUY" or "SELL" text on chart)
- strong BUY/SELL (green/red labels with "STRONG BUY" or "STRONG SELL" text on chart)
You can use signals from the same category as triggers for entering or exiting a trade or you can try using signals from different categories
All indicators settings can be costumized
Every signal label can be turned ON/OFF
EMA that changes color based on last candle close can be turned ON/OFF
Alerts can be set for:
- General Signals (every signal will trigger it)
- Weak Signals (only weak signals will trigger it)
- Normal Signals (only normal signals will trigger it)
- Strong Signals (only strong signals will trigger it)
Zero-Lag MTF PSAR MACD with Bollinger Bands v1.0 [loxx]Zero-Lag MTF PSAR MACD with Bollinger Bands v1.0
This is an experimental indicator that captures PSAR movements on seven different timeframes in order to improve trend detection on the daily timeframe. The seven PSARs are averaged and then fed into a zero-lag MACD function where the average of the PSARs is the source for the slow moving average and the daily timeframe close is the sourse of the fast moving average.
Things to know:
- Dark Green Background: All seven PSAR waves are above the closes of the PSARs respective timeframes; i.e., macro trend up
- Dark Red Background: All seven PSAR waves are below the closes of the PSARs respective timeframes; i.e., macro trend down
- Histogram and bar coloration is based on the difference between close and the average of all seven PSARs
- Various color schemes included
- Indicator has neither been backtested nor tuned with a strategy backtest
How to use:
Reversal Longs and Shorts
- Bollinger Bands show movement outside of normal deviation around the zero line. Wait for MACD to reach the either side top or bottom of Bollinger Bands for reversal long and reversal short respectively
- Check that MACD has crossed over or under the Signal line; i.e., denoted with a green dot for cross up and red dot for cross down
- Check dark background colors to see where the PSAR waves are currently situated and whether PSAR wave direction has aligned on all time frames
Longs and Shorts
- Longs: Check when MACD is above the zero line and the Signal line crosses over the zero line
- Shorts: Check when MACD is below the zero line and the Signal line crosses below the zero line
Strong Confluence:
- Longs/Shorts: Whenever the MACD crosses up or crosses down over/under the Signal/Zero line while inside a candle with background highlighting
- Reversals: Whenever the MACD crosses up or crosses down over/under the Signal/Zero line while inside a candle with background highlighting and at the very top/bottom or outside the top/bottom of the Bollinger Bands

BBI Bollinger BandsBBI (Bull and Bear Index) is an indicator aims on measuring the general short/mid-term (< 1 month) trend and sentiment of the stock/market. It used an average of 4 SMAs (3, 6, 12, 24) as a cut-off of a bullish/bearish trend. In general, YMMV, you can enter when close> BBI and exit when close<BBI.
BBI Bollinger Bands uses BBI as "basis" and calculates variations (Stdev) of BBI during the past several days. In general, BBI Boll band is more volatile than the traditional Boll Band.
The "possible entry and exit" function is for fun, trying to spot the point where there is extreme fear and optimism, not necessarily working yet.
Stochastic RSI Heat Bollinger BandsThis indicator is based on a combination of the famous Bollinger Bands and the Stochastic RSI indicator.
Bands are dynamically colored (and filled) with a RGB color composed by red and green values, directly generated from the average Stochastic RSI current value.
By default, colors represent the following status -> green zone is overgought & red zone is oversold.
A screener is also displayed on the chart, representing StochRSI K and D lines values, RSI value, as well as the current status (Overbought/Oversold) of the StochRSI and RSI indicators.
Notes:
The heat color and the screener status are both based on the average value between the K and D lines (for stochastic RSI based heat)
Bands can be disabled in options to use this indicator as a simple moving average colored by the Stochastic RSI heat color.
Options:
Various moving average types (SMA, EMA, SMMA, VWMA...)
Inversion of colors between overbought and oversold status
Enabling/disabling heat color on bands / basis line and bands background color
Show/Hide the screener
Color source can be modified to base the heat on the RSI instead of the Stochastic RSI value
Standards Bollinger bands, Stochastic and RSI parameters
Example
Feel free to suggest any improvements in comment.
Bollinger bands dynamic alertsThis triple Bollinger script is very useful for options traders to determine the trend condition. When the trend stays within 1 sigma limits it is termed as "congestion", breakout of congestion starts the "trending" phase and the big breakout termed "Blowout" happens when the underlying crosses the 2sigma and reaches 3 sigma limits in very short time at steep trend angles. The script provides dynamic alerts as soon as the underlying breaks out of these zones and enables options traders to stay in the trade longer. www.tradingview.com
The Directional Cross StrategyA simple chart-based strategy, which capitalizes on trend change.
Based on Azeez Mustapha's article featured in Stocks & Commodities Oct 2021 issue.
This indicator consists of three tools: a simple moving average (SMA), price envelopes, and Bollinger Bands.
Please note that this strategy only works in trending markets.
What is a trending market?
A trending market is one that is ascending with higher highs and higher lows or descending with lower highs and lower lows.
So, when the market is ranging it's not a good fit for this strategy. It is therefore advisable for the trader to stay out of the market when consolidation is noticed.
Usage of other tools in combination with this one is recommended to determine the market conditions.
Ok, so how to use this indicator:
The combination of the indicators used in this strategy displays BUY and SELL alerts.
When the lower line of the envelope on the chart would cross over the lower band of the Bollinger Bands, a BUY alert is displayed.
When the upper line of the envelope on the chart would cross down the upper band of the Bollinger Bands, a SELL alert is displayed.
As always, proper risk management should be followed.

M.Right_Top & Bottom Finder 1.0Thank you @Lazybear for the calculations for squeeze and BB, and all of the other great pine-coders who inspired me to create my own indicator to share!
This is the result of hours of work learning to code pine and tweaking until everything fits exactly what I was looking for.
After using it for a while and seeing the benefits personally, I figured now might be a good time to share with everyone while we are in such great market volatility, maybe I can save you some losses.
Basically, my indicator is meant to use volatility and standard deviations to show you the top and bottom of trends.
It does indeed work on lower timeframes, I typically use it on 5m, 30m, 4hr, and 1d.
What to look for:
When it detects the trend bottoming it will send a green histogram bar down, I also created a different shade green for even more likely bottoms.
When it detects the top of the trend it will send a red bar up, I have a brighter red for more certain tops.
The length of the histogram bar is also an indication as well. Sometimes there will be a reversal while still just showing the gray bar.
I just added alerts, so hopefully those work. If not, I will update.
Let me know if you have any questions, and enjoy.
Cheers!
7 Moving Averages [Plus]Moving Averages are price based, lagging (or reactive) indicators that display the average price of a security over a set period of time. A Moving Average is a good way to gauge momentum as well as to confirm trends, and define areas of support and resistance. Essentially, Moving Averages smooth out the “noise” when trying to interpret charts. Noise is made up of fluctuations of both price and volume. Because a Moving Average is a lagging indicator and reacts to events that have already happened, it is not used as a predictive indicator but as an interpretive one for confirmations and analysis.
Bollinger Bands (BB) are a widely popular technical analysis instrument created by John Bollinger. The BB consist of a band of three lines which are plotted in relation to security prices. The line in the middle is usually a Simple Moving Average (SMA) set to a period of 20 days (the type of trend line and period can be changed by the trader; however a 20 day moving average is by far the most popular). The SMA then serves as a base for the Upper and Lower Bands which are used as a way to measure volatility by observing the relationship between the Bands and price. Typically the Upper and Lower Bands are set to two standard deviations away from the SMA (The Middle Line); however the number of standard deviations can also be adjusted by the trader.
This script shows 6 moving averages and Bollinger Bands.
Features:
- Standard MA inputs.
- MA type.
- MA period.
- MA source.
- MA resolution (time frame).
- MA Offset.
- Forecasting : forcasted prices are calculated using our MAType and MASource for the MAPeriod.
- Trail: Show only candles not included in the MA calculation.
The color of MA1 depends on the chosen strategy, by default this is the 3EMA strategy. You can also select "Pivot Point Supertrend" or "Ichimoku Trend"
Added "Parabolic Stop and Reverse (PSAR)" . The PSAR is a time and price technical analysis tool primarily used to identify points of potential stops and reverses. In fact, the SAR in Parabolic SAR stands for "Stop and Reverse". The indicator's calculations create a parabola which is located below price during a Bullish Trend and above Price during a Bearish Trend.
Added "Linear Regression Channel" which can be correctly plotted on logarithmic charts. A linear regression channel consists of a median line with 2 parallel lines, above and below it, at the same distance. Those lines can be seen as support and resistance. The median line is calculated based on linear regression of the closing prices but the source can also be set to open, high or low. The height of the channel is based on the deviation of price to the median line. Extrapolating the channel forward can help to provide a bias and to find trading opportunities.
3Commas TA Start Conditions Indicator v1.0Introduction
The indicator attempts to implement the "Technical Analysis Starting Conditions" found in the 3Commas DCA trading bot settings.
How is it original and useful and how does it compare to other scripts in the Public Library?
This indicator is unique in that it's the only one (as of the initial publications) that can handle 5 signal indicator types at the same time as well as output the signal values either to the chart or the data window. The indicator supports all of the following 3Commas built-in indicators on the 3 minute, 5 minute, 15 minute, 30 minute, 1 hour, 2 hour, and 4 hour time frames:
RSI-7
ULT-7-14-2
BB-20-1-LB (Long)
BB-20-2-LB (Long)
MFI-14 crosses 40 (Long)
MFI-14 crosses 20 (Long)
CCI-40 crosses -200 (Long)
BB-20-1-UB (Short)
BB-20-2-UB (Short)
MFI-14 crosses 65 (Short)
CCI-40 crosses 0 (Short)
CCI-40 crosses 100 (Short)
What does it do and how does it do it?
When applied to the chart for the first time, the default settings are completely blank, so the only chart element you will see is the "Start Condition Result" line in orange. Once you start applying settings in the "DEAL START CONDITION" section, the indicator will redraw and display the new values for the "Start Condition Result" line. A value of 1 indicates that the results of the condition(s) is "passing". Conversely, a value of 0 indicates that the results of the condition(s) is NOT passing. If you desire to dig deeper into why the indicator is producing the results, you can enable the "Show TA Indicator # Plot" to visually see the values on the price chart or simply open the Data Window panel to see their values as you hover over the candles in the price chart.
This indicator can be used with any indicator in the Public Library that seeks to emulate the 3Commas Technical Analysis Starting Conditions for a signal provider. For example, this indicator can be used our own 3Commas DCA Bot Strategy v1.0 to aid in your backtesting analysis and build confidence that your bot will perform given historical market data that TradingView provides. When you do so, make sure that the "Strategy" input has the same values with the two indicator settings.
Enjoy! 😊👍

Divergence, RSI+Bollinger Band breachHi everyone, I have developed a divergence system using RSI and Bollinger Bands. It contains a series of filters which are fine tuned to generate razer sharp entries. It works by first identifying divergence between peak 1 and peak 2. Peak 1 must have enough momentum and strength to Breach the Bollinger bands. Once these criteria are met, a white candle will signal an entry to go long or short. The take profits for this trading system are most accurate when set at about 50-70% retracement of the bottom/top of the valley, to the trade entry. Stop loss's can be set 1:1 or up to the discretion of the trader if they so choose to grid/martingale their way out of a loosing trade. Signals are best taken on the 30M timeframes, and using upper time frames to determine market structure ( support, resistance, fibs, ) or what ever you may use to provide confidence of a reversal.
Bollinger Bands With User Selectable MABollinger Bands with user selection options to calculate the moving average basis and bands from a variety of different moving averages.
The user selects their choice of moving average, and the bands automatically adjust. The user may select a MA that reacts faster to volatility or slower/smoother.
Added additional options to color the bands or basis based on the current trend and alternate candle colors for band touches. Options:
REACT SLOW/SMOOTH TO VOLATILITY
simple moving average (Regular Bollinger Bands)
REACT SMOOTH TO VOLATILITY
exponential moving average (EMA Bollinger Bands)
weighted moving average (Weighted MA Bollinger Bands)
exponential hull moving average (Hull Bollinger Bands with better smoothing)
HIGHLY ADJUSTABLE TO VOLATILITY
Arnaud Legoux Moving average (ALMA Bollinger Bands)
Note: 0.85 ALMA default for more smoothing, set offset=1 to turn off smoothing
REACT HARSH TO VOLATILITY
least squares moving average (Least Squares Bollinger Bands)
REACT VERY FAST TO VOLATILITY
hull moving average (Hull Bollinger Bands or Hullinger Bands)
VALUE ADDED: This script is unique in that no other Bollinger Bands indicator offers a user selection for moving average, and some of the options do not exist yet as Bollinger Bands indicators.
Definitions:
Bollinger Bands: A Bollinger Band® is a technical analysis tool defined by a set of trendlines plotted two standard deviations (positively and negatively) away from a simple moving average (SMA) of a security's price, but which can be adjusted to user preferences.
Exponential Bollinger Bands: The most important characteristics of the Exponential Bollinger Bands indicator are: When the market is flat, the bands will stay much closer to prices. When the volatility is high, the bands move away from prices faster.
Hull Bollinger Bands: Bollinger Bands calculated by Hull moving average, rather than simple moving average or ema. The Hull Moving Average (HMA), developed by Alan Hull, is an extremely fast and smooth moving average. In fact, the HMA almost eliminates lag altogether and manages to improve smoothing at the same time.
Exponential Hull Bollinger Bands: Bollinger Bands calculated by Exponential Hull moving average, rather than simple moving average or ema. The Exponential Hull Moving Average is similar to the standard Hull MA, but with superior smoothing. The standard Hull Moving Average is derived from the weighted moving average (WMA). As other moving average built from weighted moving averages it has a tendency to exaggerate price movement.
Weighted Moving Average Bollinger Bands: A Weighted Moving Average (WMA) is similar to the simple moving average (SMA), except the WMA adds significance to more recent data points.
Arnaud Legoux Moving Average Bollinger Bands: ALMA removes small price fluctuations and enhances the trend by applying a moving average twice, once from left to right, and once from right to left. At the end of this process the phase shift (price lag) commonly associated with moving averages is significantly reduced. Zero-phase digital filtering reduces noise in the signal. Conventional filtering reduces noise in the signal, but adds a delay.
Least Squares Bollinger Bands: The indicator is based on sum of least squares method to find a straight line that best fits data for the selected period. The end point of the line is plotted and the process is repeated on each succeeding period.
Berzerker IndexSome pairs have their own distinct behavior. That includes volatility, news reactiveness, trend x chop day discrepancy, and other qualities.
At first, I tried to measure this with the Choppiness Index, but it looks pretty much alike when you compare symbols like EURNZD and GBPCAD, but my testing shows some major behavioral differences between the two. Hence, I decided to build my own measurement which I later decided to call Berzerker Index.
• The calculation takes the previous value and adds 1, 3, 7, or 15 depending on how many standard deviations the price beats.
• Deviations use Jurik Moving Average as a central line. If there is no new penetration, the total value will not be increased.
• At the end of the value update, the result will decay whether it is changed or not. The readings decay significantly faster if the price is between the bands.
• The beginning of the calculation is the beginning of the chart. There isn't any period for the calculation.
As you can see, from the beginning of the year, the maximum readings on EURNZD are 49.8 and 73.6 for GBPCAD. This is what I wanted to achieve - find some way to clearly differentiate the pairs. Later, I went on EURUSD to confirm the results. EURUSD should be a calmer pair and it shows 33.5 which supports the theory.
The symbols with small bars and explosions on events and bank meetings will reach high values, whereas those that are more predictable with less extreme movements will be found below 45.
Lastly, you may identify long periods of continuous descend on the indicator as setting up for a large explosion. This is not the original idea but could work nevertheless.
Of course, I will further update this indicator if I get improvement ideas...
FAQ:
► Does this repaint?
• No.
► Where is the buy signal?
• There isn't one. The purpose is to study repeated behavioral patterns of different symbols, not to drink from the holy grail.
► Why is it called the 'Berzerker' Index?
• I don't know.
I used @everget's version of Jurik's Moving Average with his consent.
