Market ExtremitiesHere I'm proposing an indicator to measure market extremities, it is different than usually used STDv function and has a much simpler underlying mechanism. However, what you will compromise by it is that it is not going to work efficiently like STDv and you will need to use some form of trend and momentum indicators along with it. Not efficiently doesn't mean not tradable, in fact, this is what I use over STEDv myself to reduce the noise of Bollinger Bands.
This indicator is only designed to catch the highs and lows of the market during intraday. It works across all markets and it is surprisingly good at it and has certain predictive nature since the price seems to hang around the extreme lines. Having said that, an astute trader can trade this for both breakouts and mean reversion strategies.
For reference here is one chart marked
