Release Notes
- Added optional extra condition that the signal candle close price must stay within the Bollinger Bands. This helps remove some of the oversized signal candles, these candles have a lower success probability.
- Added Alarm system Alerts for BUY and SELL. This helps with automation, however, if you use the optional BB filter you will not get a complete buy/sell sequence, that is you may get multiple Sell's or Buy's before a change of direction.
Release Notes
Added optional BB squeeze filter. The squeeze Algo is based on the current relative width of the BB, this squeeze Algo is NOT based on the LazyBear Algo.Release Notes
Converted to Pinescript V4Release Notes
Modified "alertcondition" calls to include the close placeholder, this forces the compiler to recognize the alert as a placeholder style alert (V4 Pinescript) and other placeholders can be accessed in the alarm message.Open-source script
