ZLMA Keltner ChannelThe ZLMA Keltner Channel uses a Zero-Lag Moving Average (ZLMA) as the centerline with ATR-based bands to track trends and volatility.
The ZLMA’s reduced lag enhances responsiveness for breakouts and reversals, i.e. it's more sensitive to pivots and trend reversals.
Unlike Bollinger Bands, which use standard deviation and are more sensitive to price spikes, this uses ATR for smoother volatility measurement.
Background:
Built on John Ehlers’ lag-reduction techniques, this indicator adapts the classic Keltner Channel for dynamic markets. It excels in trending (low-entropy) markets for breakouts and range-bound (high-entropy) markets for reversals.
How to Read:
ZLMA (Blue): Tracks price trends. Above = bullish, below = bearish.
Upper Band (Green): ZLMA + (Multiplier × ATR). Cross above signals breakout or overbought.
Lower Band (Red): ZLMA - (Multiplier × ATR). Cross below signals breakout or oversold.
Channel Fill (Gray): Shows volatility. Narrow = low volatility, wide = high volatility.
Signals (Optional): Enable to show “Buy” (green) on upper band crossovers, “Sell” (red) on lower band crossunders.
Strategies: Trade breakouts in trending markets, reversals in ranges, or use bands as trailing stops.
Settings:
ZLMA Period (20): Adjusts centerline responsiveness.
ATR Period (20): Sets volatility period.
Multiplier (2.0): Controls band width.
If you are still confused between the ZLMA Keltner Channels and Bollinger Bands:
Keltner Channel (ZLMA): Uses ATR for bands, which smooths volatility and is less reactive to sudden price spikes. The ZLMA centerline reduces lag for faster trend detection.
Bollinger Bands: Uses standard deviation for bands, making them more sensitive to price volatility and prone to wider swings in high-entropy markets. Typically uses an SMA centerline, which lags more than ZLMA.

MTF BB+KC Avg
Bollinger Bands (BB) are a widely used technical analysis created by John Bollinger in the early 1980’s. Bollinger Bands consist of a band of three lines which are plotted in relation to instrument 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). This indicator does not plot the middle line. The Upper and Lower Bands 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 middle line, however the number of standard deviations can also be adjusted in the indicator.
Keltner Channels (KC) are banded lines similar to Bollinger Bands and Moving Average Envelopes. They consist of an Upper Envelope above a Middle Line (not plotted in this indicator) as well as a Lower Envelope below the Middle Line. The Middle Line is a moving average of price over a user-defined time period. Either a simple moving average or an exponential moving average are typically used. The Upper and Lower Envelopes are set a (user-defined multiple) of a range away from the Middle Line. This can be a multiple of the daily high/low range, or more commonly a multiple of the Average True Range.
This indicator is built on AVERAGING the BB and KC values for each bar, so you have an efficient metric of AVERAGE volatility. The indicator visualizes changes in volatility which is of course dynamic.
What to look for
High/Low Prices
One thing that must be understood about this indicator's plots is that it averages by adding BB levels to KC levels and dividing by 2. So the plots provide a relative definition of high and low from two very popular indicators. Prices are almost always within the upper and lower bands. Therefore, when prices move up near the upper or lower bands or even break through the band, many traders would see that price action as OVER-EXTENDED (either overbought or oversold, as applicable). This would preset a possible selling or buying opportunity.
Cycling Between Expansion and Contraction
Volatility can generally be seen as a cycle. Typically periods of time with low volatility and steady or sideways prices (known as contraction) are followed by period of expansion. Expansion is a period of time characterized by high volatility and moving prices. Periods of expansion are then generally followed by periods of contraction. It is a cycle in which traders can be better prepared to navigate by using Bollinger Bands because of the indicators ability to monitor ever changing volatility.
Walking the Bands
Of course, just like with any indicator, there are exceptions to every rule and plenty of examples where what is expected to happen, does not happen. Previously, it was mentioned that price breaking above the Upper Band or breaking below the Lower band could signify a selling or buying opportunity respectively. However this is not always the case. “Walking the Bands” can occur in either a strong uptrend or a strong downtrend.
During a strong uptrend, there may be repeated instances of price touching or breaking through the Upper Band. Each time that this occurs, it is not a sell signal, it is a result of the overall strength of the move. Likewise during a strong downtrend there may be repeated instances of price touching or breaking through the Lower Band. Each time that this occurs, it is not a buy signal, it is a result of the overall strength of the move.
Keep in mind that instances of “Walking the Bands” will only occur in strong, defined uptrends or downtrends.

TrendSphere (Zeiierman)█ Overview
TrendSphere is designed to capture and visualize market trends and volatility effectively. It combines various volatility measures and trend analysis techniques, producing dynamic bands and a central trend line on the price chart. Its essence is to offer a real-time, reliable estimate of the underlying linear trend in the price.
█ How It Works
Real-Time Trend Estimation
At its core, TrendSphere is designed to offer instantaneous and accurate insights into the inherent linear trend of asset prices. By continually updating its estimations, it ensures traders are equipped with the most current data. This allows the construction of support and resistance bands around the estimated trend, providing trading opportunities.
Dynamic Bands and Trend Line
TrendSphere plots a central trend line and dynamic bands around it on the price chart. Influenced by volatility, the distance between these elements offers a clear view of market conditions and the strength or weakness of trends. These bands not only depict potential turning points but also offer traders valuable opportunities to trade within the confines of the overarching trend.
Volatility Measures
Traders can select their preferred volatility measure and adjust settings to best fit their analysis needs. The bands and trend line dynamically respond to these selections, offering a tailored view of market conditions.
ATR (Average True Range): Reflects market volatility by evaluating the range between high and low prices.
Historical Volatility: Computes price variability using the standard deviation of log returns.
Bollinger Band Width: Measures the distance between Bollinger Bands, providing another angle on market volatility.
Eliminating Common Complications
One of the standout features of TrendSphere is its ability to determine linear price trends without falling prey to challenges like backpainting or repainting. In layman's terms, this means traders get a more trustworthy and unaltered view of price movements, leading to enhanced decision-making in line with the genuine trajectory of price trends.
█ How to Use
Trend Analysis
Observe the central trend line; its direction indicates the prevailing trend. When the price is above the trend line, it suggests an upward trend, and when it's below, it indicates a downward trend.
Volatility Analysis
Wider bands imply higher market volatility, suggesting larger price swings, while narrower bands indicate lower volatility. Traders can use the bands to identify potential reversal points and overbought/oversold conditions.
Potential Trading Signals (Using Bollinger bandwidth as volatility measure)
Consider buying when the price is above the trend line with narrowing bands, suggesting a strong upward trend.
Consider selling when the price is below the trend line with narrowing bands, indicating a strong downward trend.
█ Settings
Select Volatility Measure
Choose the desired volatility measure: ATR, Historical Volatility, or Bollinger Band Width.
Volatility Scaling Factor
Adjusts the scale of the volatility measure, influencing the width of the bands.
Volatility Strength
Modifies the influence of volatility on the bands, adjusting their responsiveness to volatility changes.
Length
Defines the number of periods used in calculating the selected volatility measure, impacting the stability and responsiveness of the bands.
Trend Sensitivity

Multi-Band Breakout IndicatorThe Multi-Band Breakout Indicator was created to help identify potential breakout opportunities in the market. It combines multiple bands (ATR-Based and Donchian) and moving averages to provide valuable insights into the underlying trend and potential breakouts. By understanding the calculations, interpretation, parameter adjustments, potential applications, and limitations of the indicator, traders can effectively incorporate it into their trading strategy.
Calculation:
The indicator utilizes several calculations to plot the bands and moving averages. The length parameter determines the period used for the Average True Range (ATR), which measures volatility. A higher length captures a longer-term view of price movement, while a lower length focuses on shorter-term volatility. The multiplier parameter adjusts the distance of the upper and lower bands from the ATR. A higher multiplier expands the bands, accommodating greater price volatility, while a lower multiplier tightens the bands, reflecting lower volatility. The MA Length parameter determines the period for the moving averages used to calculate the trend and trend moving average. A higher MA Length creates a smoother trend line, filtering out shorter-term fluctuations, while a lower MA Length provides a more sensitive trend line.
The Donchian calculations in the Multi-Band Breakout Indicator play a significant role in identifying potential breakout opportunities and providing additional confirmation for trading signals. In this indicator, the Donchian calculations are applied to the trend line, which represents the average of the upper and lower bands. To calculate the Donchian levels, the indicator uses the Donchian Length parameter, which determines the period over which the highest high and lowest low are calculated. A longer Donchian Length captures a broader price range, while a shorter length focuses on more recent price action. By incorporating the Donchian calculations into the Multi-Band Breakout Indicator, traders gain an additional layer of confirmation for breakout signals.
Interpretation:
The Multi-Band Breakout Indicator offers valuable interpretation for traders. The upper and lower bands represent dynamic levels of resistance and support, respectively. These bands reflect the potential price range within which the asset is expected to trade. The trend line is the average of these bands and provides a central reference point for the overall trend. When the price moves above the upper band, it suggests a potential overbought condition and a higher probability of a pullback. Conversely, when the price falls below the lower band, it indicates a potential oversold condition and an increased likelihood of a bounce. The trend moving average further smooths the trend line, making it easier to identify the prevailing direction.
The crossover of the trend line (representing the average of the upper and lower bands) and the trend moving average holds a significant benefit for traders. This crossover serves as a powerful signal for potential trend changes and breakout opportunities in the market. When the trend line crosses above the trend moving average, it suggests a shift in momentum towards the upside, indicating a potential bullish trend. This provides traders with an early indication of a possible upward movement in prices. Conversely, when the trend line crosses below the trend moving average, it indicates a shift in momentum towards the downside, signaling a potential bearish trend. This crossover acts as an early warning for potential downward price movement. By identifying these crossovers, traders can capture the initial stages of a new trend, enabling them to enter trades at favorable entry points and potentially maximize their profit potential.
Breakout Signals:
For bullish breakouts, the indicator looks for a bullish crossover between the trend line and the trend moving average. This crossover suggests a shift in momentum towards the upside. Additionally, it checks if the current price has broken above the upper band and the previous Donchian high. This confirms that the price is surpassing a previous resistance level, indicating further upward movement.
For bearish breakouts, the indicator looks for a bearish crossunder between the trend line and the trend moving average. This crossunder indicates a shift in momentum towards the downside. It also checks if the current price has broken below the lower band and the previous Donchian low. This confirms that the price is breaking through a previous support level, signaling potential downward movement.
When a bullish or bearish breakout is detected, it suggests a potential trading opportunity. Traders may consider initiating positions in the direction of the breakout, anticipating further price movement in that direction. However, it's important to remember that breakouts alone do not guarantee a successful trade. Other factors, such as market conditions, volume, and confirmation from additional indicators, should be taken into account. Risk management techniques should also be implemented to manage potential losses.
Coloration:
The coloration in the Multi-Band Breakout Indicator is used to visually represent different aspects of the indicator and provide valuable insights to traders. Let's break down the coloration components:
-- Trend/Basis Color : The tColor variable determines the color of the bars based on the relationship between the trend line (trend) and the closing price (close), as well as the relationship between the trend line and the trend moving average (trendMA). If the trend line is above the closing price and the trend moving average is also above the closing price, the bars are colored fuchsia, indicating a potential bullish trend. If the trend line is below the closing price and the trend moving average is also below the closing price, the bars are colored lime, indicating a potential bearish trend. If neither of these conditions is met, the bars are colored yellow, representing a neutral or indecisive market condition.
-- Moving Average Color : The maColor variable determines the color of the filled area between the trend line and the trend moving average. If the trend line is above the trend moving average, the area is filled with a lime color with 70% opacity, indicating a potential bullish trend. Conversely, if the trend line is below the trend moving average, the area is filled with a fuchsia color with 70% opacity, indicating a potential bearish trend. This coloration helps traders visually identify the relationship between the trend line and the trend moving average.
-- highColor and lowColor : The highColor and lowColor variables determine the colors of the high Donchian band (hhigh) and the low Donchian band (llow), respectively. These bands represent dynamic levels of resistance and support. If the highest point in the previous Donchian period (hhigh) is above the upper band, the highColor is set to olive with 90% opacity, indicating a potential resistance level. On the other hand, if the lowest point in the previous Donchian period (llow) is below the lower band, the lowColor is set to red with 90% opacity, suggesting a potential support level. These colorations help traders quickly identify important price levels and assess their significance in relation to the bands.
By incorporating coloration, the Multi-Band Breakout Indicator provides visual cues to traders, making it easier to interpret the relationships between various components and assisting in identifying potential trend changes and breakout opportunities. Traders can use these color cues to quickly assess the prevailing market conditions and make informed trading decisions.
Adjusting Parameters:
The Multi-Band Breakout Indicator offers flexibility through parameter adjustments. Traders can customize the indicator based on their preferences and trading style. The length parameter controls the sensitivity to price changes, with higher values capturing longer-term trends, while lower values focus on shorter-term price movements. By adjusting the parameters, such as the ATR length, multiplier, Donchian length, and MA length, traders can customize the indicator to suit different timeframes and trading strategies. For shorter timeframes, smaller values for these parameters may be more suitable, while longer timeframes may require larger values.
Potential Applications:
The Multi-Band Breakout Indicator can be applied in various trading strategies. It helps identify potential breakout opportunities, allowing traders to enter trades in the direction of the breakout. Traders can use the indicator to initiate trades when the price moves above the upper band or below the lower band, confirming a potential breakout and providing a signal to enter a trade. Additionally, the indicator can be combined with other technical analysis tools, such as support and resistance levels, candlestick patterns, or trend indicators, to increase the probability of successful trades. By incorporating the Multi-Band Breakout Indicator into their trading approach, traders can gain a better understanding of market trends and capture potential profit opportunities.
Limitations:
While the Multi-Band Breakout Indicator is a useful tool, it has some limitations that traders should consider. The indicator performs best in trending markets where price movements are relatively strong and sustained. During ranging or choppy market conditions, the indicator may generate false signals, leading to potential losses. It is crucial to use the indicator in conjunction with other analysis techniques and risk management strategies to enhance its effectiveness. Additionally, traders should consider external factors such as market news, economic events, and overall market sentiment when interpreting the signals generated by the indicator.
By combining multiple bands and moving averages, this indicator offers valuable insights into the underlying trend and helps traders make informed trading decisions. With customization options and careful interpretation, this indicator can be a valuable addition to any trader's toolkit, assisting in identifying potential breakouts, capturing profitable trades, and enhancing overall trading performance.

📈 Adjustable High/Low Moving Averages — Select your smoothing style: SMA, EMA, WMA, RMA, or HMA.
🌬️ ATR-Based Expansion — Bands dynamically breathe based on market volatility.
🔀 Per-Band Multipliers — Fine-tune expansion individually for the upper and lower bands.
⚖️ Basis Line — Optional centerline between bands for structure tracking and equilibrium zones.
🎛️ Full Visual Control — Width, transparency, color, on/off toggles for each element.
----------------------------------------------------
🧠 Default Use Case:
With the included default settings, TRX behaves like an evolved Bollinger Band system — based on True Range candle structure, not just close price and standard deviation.
----------------------------------------------------
🔄 How to Zero Out the Bands (for Minimalist Use):
Want just candles? A clean MA? Single band? You got it.
➤ Use TRX like a clean moving average:
• Set ATR Multiplier to 0
• Set both Band ATR Adjustments to 0
• Leave the Basis Line ON or OFF — your call
➤ Show only candles (no bands at all):
• Turn off "Show High/Low MAs"
• Turn off Basis Line
➤ Single-line ceiling or floor tracking:
• Set one band’s Transparency to 100
• Use the remaining band as a price envelope or support/resistance guide
----------------------------------------------------
🧬 Notes:
TRX can be made:
• Spiky or silky (via smoothing & ATR)
• Wide or tight (via multipliers)
• Subtle or aggressive (via color/transparency)
• Clean as a compass or dirty as a chaos meter
Built by accident. Tuned with intention.
Released to the world as one of the most adaptable and expressive visual overlays ever made.

Bollinger Band PW PackageThis script creates a Bollinger Band Package with Bollinger Band Percent and Width displayed on chart. The indicator also prints signals when price closes above or below the Bollinger Bands using shapes (circles by default). Bollinger Bands were created by John Bollinger, and consist of three lines plotted on a chart: the basis line (typically a moving average, 20 sma by default), an upper line (equal to the basis plus a certain number of standard deviations of the price, 2), and a lower line (equal to the basis minus the same number of standard deviations, 2 by default).
The script calculates the Bollinger Bands for a given input parameters by taking the length of the moving average and the number of standard deviations to use for the upper and lower bands. It then calculates the Bollinger Bands using these input parameters.
The script defines two functions: get_bb_percent() and get_bb_width(). The get_bb_percent() function calculates the percentage distance between the closing price and the lower band, as a percentage of the total distance between the upper and lower bands. This value is commonly referred to as the "Bollinger Band Percent". The get_bb_width() function calculates the percentage distance between the upper and lower bands, as a percentage of the basis line. This value is commonly referred to as the "Bollinger Band Width".
The script creates a table at the middle right of the chart, where the Bollinger Band Percent and Width values are displayed. The table is designed with two rows, one for the Bollinger Band Percent value and the other for the Bollinger Band Width value.
The script plots the three Bollinger Bands lines on the chart. The basis line is plotted in blue, the upper band line in red, and the lower band line in green.
The script then plots the shapes that signify closures above and below the bands using plotshape. The shapes and colors are customizable in the settings menu.
This indicator is designed to have all three components and a visual aid to assist Bollinger Band technical analysis in one script which can be helpful in determining potential trading opportunities. We thank John Bollinger for his contribution to technical analysis and trading.

Channels Strategy [JoseMetal]============
ENGLISH
============
- Description:
This strategy is based on Bollinger Bands / Keltner Channel price "rebounds" (the idea of price bouncing from one band to another).
The strategy has several customizable options, which allows you to refine the strategy for your asset and timeframe.
You can customize settings for ALL indicators, Bollinger Bands (period and standard deviation), Keltner Channel (period and ATR multiplier) and ATR (period).
- AVAILABLE INDICATORS:
You can pick Bollinger Bands or Keltner Channels for the strategy, the chosen indicator will be plotted as well.
- CUSTOM CONDITIONS TO ENTER A POSITION:
1. Price breaks the band (low below lower band for LONG or high above higher band for SHORT).
2. Same as 1 but THEN (next candle) price closes INSIDE the bands.
3. Price breaks the band AND CLOSES OUT of the band (lower band for LONG and higher band for SHORT).
4. Same as 3 but THEN (next candle) price closes INSIDE the bands.
- STOP LOSS OPTIONS:
1. Previous wick (low of previous candle if LONG and high or previous candle if SHORT).
2. Extended band, you can customize settings for a second indicator with larger values to use it as STOP LOSS, for example, Bollinger Bands with 2 standard deviations to open positions and 3 for STOP LOSS.
3. ATR: you can pick average true ratio from a source (like closing price) with a multiplier to calculate STOP LOSS.
- TAKE PROFIT OPTIONS:
1. Opposite band (top band for LONGs, bottom band for SHORTs).
2. Moving average: Bollinger Bands simple moving average or Keltner Channel exponential moving average .
3. ATR: you can pick average true ratio from a source (like closing price) with a multiplier to calculate TAKE PROFIT.
- OTHER OPTIONS:
You can pick to trade only LONGs, only SHORTs, both or none (just indicator).
You can enable DYNAMIC TAKE PROFIT, which updates TAKE PROFIT on each candle, for example, if you pick "opposite band" as TAKE PROFIT, it'll update the TAKE PROFIT based on that, on every single new candle.
- Visual:
Bands shown will depend on the chosen indicator and it's settings.
ATR is only printed if used as STOP LOSS and/or TAKE PROFIT.
- Recommendations:
Recommended on DAILY timeframe , it works better with Keltner Channels rather than Bollinger Bands .
- Customization:
As you can see, almost everything is customizable, for colors and plotting styles check the "Style" tab.
Enjoy!

CNS - Multi-Timeframe Bollinger Band OscillatorMy hope is to optimize the settings for this indicator and reintroduce it as a "strategy" with suggested position entry and exit points shown in the price pane.
I’ve been having good results setting the “Bollinger Band MA Length” in the Input tab to between 5 and 10. You can use the standard 20 period, but your results will not be as granular.
This indicator has proven very good at finding local tops and bottoms by combining data from multiple timeframes. Use BB timeframes that are lower than the timeframe you are viewing in your price pane.
The default settings work best on the weekly timeframe, but can be adjusted for most timeframes including intraday.
Be cognizant that the indicator, like other oscillators, does occasionally produce divergences at tops and bottoms.
Any feedback is appreciated.
Overview
This indicator is an oscillator that measures the normalized position of the price relative to Bollinger Bands across multiple timeframes. It takes the price's position within the Bollinger Bands (calculated on different timeframes) and averages those positions to create a single value that oscillates between 0 and 1. This value is then plotted as the oscillator, with reference lines and colored regions to help interpret the price's relative strength or weakness.
How It Works
Bollinger Band Calculation:
The indicator uses a custom function f_getBBPosition() to calculate the position of the price within Bollinger Bands for a given timeframe.
Price Position Normalization:
For each timeframe, the function normalizes the price's position between the upper and lower Bollinger Bands.
It calculates three positions based on the high, low, and close prices of the requested timeframe:
pos_high = (High - Lower Band) / (Upper Band - Lower Band)
pos_low = (Low - Lower Band) / (Upper Band - Lower Band)
pos_close = (Close - Lower Band) / (Upper Band - Lower Band)
If the upper band is not greater than the lower band or if the data is invalid (e.g., na), it defaults to 0.5 (the midline).
The average of these three positions (avg_pos) represents the normalized position for that timeframe, ranging from 0 (at the lower band) to 1 (at the upper band).
Multi-Timeframe Averaging:
The indicator fetches Bollinger Band data from four customizable timeframes (default: 30min, 60min, 240min, daily) using request.security() with lookahead=barmerge.lookahead_on to get the latest available data.
It calculates the normalized position (pos1, pos2, pos3, pos4) for each timeframe using f_getBBPosition().
These four positions are then averaged to produce the final avg_position:avg_position = (pos1 + pos2 + pos3 + pos4) / 4
This average is the oscillator value, which is plotted and typically oscillates between 0 and 1.
Moving Averages:
Two optional moving averages (MA1 and MA2) of the avg_position can be enabled, calculated using simple moving averages (ta.sma) with customizable lengths (default: 5 and 10).
These can be potentially used for MA crossover strategies.
What Is Being Averaged?
The oscillator (avg_position) is the average of the normalized price positions within the Bollinger Bands across the four selected timeframes. Specifically:It averages the avg_pos values (pos1, pos2, pos3, pos4) calculated for each timeframe.
Each avg_pos is itself an average of the normalized positions of the high, low, and close prices relative to the Bollinger Bands for that timeframe.
This multi-timeframe averaging smooths out short-term fluctuations and provides a broader perspective on the price's position within the volatility bands.
Interpretation
0.0 The price is at or below the lower Bollinger Band across all timeframes (indicating potential oversold conditions).
0.15: A customizable level (green band) which can be used for exiting short positions or entering long positions.
0.5: The midline, where the price is at the average of the Bollinger Bands (neutral zone).
0.85: A customizable level (orange band) which can be used for exiting long positions or entering short positions.
1.0: The price is at or above the upper Bollinger Band across all timeframes (indicating potential overbought conditions).
The colored regions and moving averages (if enabled) help identify trends or crossovers for trading signals.
Example
If the 30min timeframe shows the close at the upper band (position = 1.0), the 60min at the midline (position = 0.5), the 240min at the lower band (position = 0.0), and the daily at the upper band (position = 1.0), the avg_position would be:(1.0 + 0.5 + 0.0 + 1.0) / 4 = 0.625
This value (0.625) would plot in the orange region (between 0.85 and 0.5), suggesting the price is relatively strong but not at an extreme.
Notes
The use of lookahead=barmerge.lookahead_on ensures the indicator uses the latest available data, making it more real-time, though its effectiveness depends on the chart timeframe and TradingView's data feed.
The indicator’s sensitivity can be adjusted by changing bb_length ("Bollinger Band MA Length" in the Input tab), bb_mult ("Bollinger Band Standard Deviation," also in the Input tab), or the selected timeframes.

Nadaraya-Watson Probability [Yosiet]The script calculates and displays probability bands around price movements, offering insights into potential market trends.
Setting Up the Script
Window Size: Determines the length of the window for the Nadaraya-Watson estimation. A larger window smooths the data more but might lag current market conditions.
Bandwidth: Controls the bandwidth for the kernel regression, affecting the smoothness of the probability bands.
Reading the Data Table
The script dynamically updates a table positioned at the bottom right of your chart, providing real-time insights into market probabilities. Here's how to interpret the table:
Table Columns: The table is organized into three columns:
Up: Indicates the probability or relative change percentage for the upper band.
Down: Indicates the probability or relative change percentage for the lower band.
Table Rows: There are two main rows of interest:
P%: Shows the price change percentage difference between the bands and the closing price. A positive value in the "Up" column suggests the upper band is above the current close, indicating potential upward momentum. Conversely, a negative value in the "Down" column suggests downward momentum.
R%: Displays the relative inner change percentage difference between the bands, offering a measure of the market's volatility or stability within the bands.
Utilizing the Insights
Market Trends: A widening gap between the "Up" and "Down" percentages in the "P%" row might indicate increasing market volatility. Traders can use this information to adjust their risk management strategies accordingly.
Entry and Exit Points: The "R%" row provides insights into the relative position of the current price within the probability bands. Traders might consider positions closer to the lower band as potential entry points and positions near the upper band as exit points or take-profit levels.
Conclusion
The Nadaraya-Watson Probability script offers a sophisticated tool for traders looking to incorporate statistical analysis into their trading strategy. By understanding and utilizing the data presented in the script's table, traders can gain insights into market trends and volatility, aiding in decision-making processes. Remember, no indicator is foolproof; always consider multiple data sources and analyses when making trading decisions.
AggBands (v1) [qrsq]The "AggBands" indicator is a custom trading indicator designed to provide a consolidated view of the price action across multiple assets or trading pairs. It combines the price data from multiple tickers and calculates an aggregated price using user-defined weights for each ticker.
The indicator starts by defining the tickers to be included in the aggregation. You can choose from predefined configurations such as "BTC PAIRS," "CRYPTO TOTAL MARKET CAP," "TOP 5 PAIRS," "TOP 5 MEMECOINS," "SPX," "DXY," or "FANG." Each configuration includes specific tickers or indices relevant to the chosen category.
The indicator then fetches the closing, high, and low prices for each ticker and applies the user-defined weights to calculate the aggregated prices. The aggregated prices are normalized within a specified length to provide a consistent scale across different assets or pairs.
Next, the indicator calculates the midpoint, which is the average of the highest high and lowest low of the aggregated prices over a specified aggregation period.
To assess the volatility, the indicator calculates the price range and applies the Average True Range (ATR) indicator to determine the volatility value. The standard deviation is then computed using the price range and aggregation period, with an additional scaling factor applied to the volatility value.
Based on the standard deviation, the indicator generates multiple bands above and below the midpoint. By default, three standard deviation bands are calculated, but the user can choose between one and five bands. The upper and lower bands are smoothed using various moving average (MA) types, such as Simple Moving Average (SMA), Exponential Moving Average (EMA), Smoothed Moving Average (SMMA/RMA), Weighted Moving Average (WMA), Volume Weighted Moving Average (VWMA), Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP), or Arnaud Legoux Moving Average (ALMA). The user can also adjust the length, offset, and sigma parameters for the moving averages.
The indicator can optionally smooth the midpoint, upper bands, and lower bands using a separate set of moving average parameters.
The indicator can be useful for traders and analysts who want to gain a consolidated view of price movements across multiple assets or trading pairs. It helps identify trends, volatility, and potential support and resistance levels based on the aggregated price and standard deviation bands. Traders can use this information to make informed decisions about trading strategies, risk management, and market analysis.
Lowess Channel + (RSI) [ChartPrime]The Lowess Channel + (RSI) indicator applies the LOWESS (Locally Weighted Scatterplot Smoothing) algorithm to filter price fluctuations and construct a dynamic channel. LOWESS is a non-parametric regression method that smooths noisy data by fitting weighted linear regressions at localized segments. This technique is widely used in statistical analysis to reveal trends while preserving data structure.
In this indicator, the LOWESS algorithm is used to create a central trend line and deviation-based bands. The midline changes color based on trend direction, and diamonds are plotted when a trend shift occurs. Additionally, an RSI gauge is positioned at the end of the channel to display the current RSI level in relation to the price bands.

sum_weighted_xy = 0.0
sum_weighted_x2 = 0.0
sum_weighted_x = 0.0
for i = 0 to length - 1
x = float(i)
weight = math.exp(-0.5 * (x / bandwidth) * (x / bandwidth))
y = nz(src , 0)
sum_weights := sum_weights + weight
sum_weighted_x := sum_weighted_x + weight * x
sum_weighted_y := sum_weighted_y + weight * y
sum_weighted_xy := sum_weighted_xy + weight * x * y
sum_weighted_x2 := sum_weighted_x2 + weight * x * x
mean_x = sum_weighted_x / sum_weights
mean_y = sum_weighted_y / sum_weights
beta = (sum_weighted_xy - mean_x * mean_y * sum_weights) / (sum_weighted_x2 - mean_x * mean_x * sum_weights)
alpha = mean_y - beta * mean_x
alpha + beta * float(length / 2) // Centered smoothing
⯁ KEY FEATURES
LOWESS Price Filtering – Smooths price fluctuations to reveal the underlying trend with minimal lag.
Dynamic Trend Coloring – The midline changes color based on trend direction (e.g., bullish or bearish).
Trend Shift Diamonds – Marks points where the midline color changes, indicating a possible trend shift.
Deviation-Based Bands – Expands above and below the midline using ATR-based multipliers for volatility tracking.
RSI Gauge Display – A vertical gauge at the right side of the chart shows the current RSI level relative to the price channel.
Fully Customizable – Users can adjust LOWESS length, band width, colors, and enable or disable the RSI gauge and adjust RSIlength.
⯁ HOW TO USE
Use the LOWESS midline as a trend filter —bullish when green, bearish when purple.
Watch for trend shift diamonds as potential entry or exit signals.
Utilize the price bands to gauge overbought and oversold zones based on volatility.
Monitor the RSI gauge to confirm trend strength—high RSI near upper bands suggests overbought conditions, while low RSI near lower bands indicates oversold conditions.
⯁ CONCLUSION
The Lowess Channel + (RSI) indicator offers a powerful way to analyze market trends by applying a statistically robust smoothing algorithm. Unlike traditional moving averages, LOWESS filtering provides a flexible, responsive trendline that adapts to price movements. The integrated RSI gauge enhances decision-making by displaying momentum conditions alongside trend dynamics. Whether used for trend-following or mean reversion strategies, this indicator provides traders with a well-rounded perspective on market behavior.
Bitcoin Rainbow WaveBitcoin ultimate price model:
1. Power Law + 2. Rainbow Narrowing Bands + 3. Halving Cycle Harmonic Wave + 3. Wave bands
This powerful tool is designed to help traders of all levels understand and navigate the Bitcoin market. It works exclusively with BTC on any timeframe, but looks best on weekly or daily charts. The indicator provides valuable insights into historical price behavior and offers forecasts for the next decade, making it essential for both mid-term and long-term strategies.
How the Model Works
Power Law (Logarithmic Trend) : The green line represents the expected long-term price trajectory of Bitcoin based on a logarithmic regression model (power law). This suggests that Bitcoin's price generally increases as a power of 5.44 over time passed.
Rainbow Chart : Colored bands around the power law trend line illustrate a range of potential price fluctuations. The bands narrow esponentially over time, indicating increasing model accuracy as Bitcoin matures. This chart visually identifies overbought and oversold zones, as well as fair value zones.
Blue Zone : Below the power law trend, indicating an undervalued condition and a potential buying zone.
Green Zone : Around the power law trend, suggesting fair value.
Yellow Zone : Above the power law trend, but within the rainbow bands. Exercise caution, as the price may be overextended.
Red Zone : Far above the power law trend, indicating strong overbought conditions. Consider taking profits or reducing exposure.
Halving Cycle Wave : The fuchsia line represents the cyclical wave component of the model, tied to Bitcoin's halving events (approximately every four years). This wave accounts for the price fluctuations that typically occur around halvings, with price tending to increase leading up to a halving and correct afterwards. The amplitude of the wave decreases over time as the impact of halvings potentially lessens. Additional bands around the wave show the expected range of price fluctuations, aiding traders in making informed decisions.
Customizing Parameters
You can fine-tune the model's appearance by adjusting these input parameters:
show Power Law (true/false): Toggle visibility of the power law trend line.
show Wave (true/false): Toggle visibility of the halving cycle wave.
show Rainbow Chart (true/false): Toggle visibility of the rainbow bands.
show Block Marks (true/false): Toggle visibility of the 70,000 block interval markers.
Using the Model in Your Trading Strategy
Combine this indicator with technical analysis, fundamental analysis, and risk management techniques to develop a comprehensive Bitcoin trading strategy. The model can help you identify potential entry and exit points, assess market sentiment, and manage risk based on Bitcoin's position relative to the power law trend, halving cycle wave, and rainbow chart zones.

AdvancedLines (FiboBands) - PaSKaL
Overview :
AdvancedLines (FiboBands) - PaSKaL is an advanced technical analysis tool designed to automate the plotting of key Fibonacci retracement levels based on the highest high and lowest low over a customizable period. This indicator helps traders identify critical price zones such as support, resistance, and potential trend reversal or continuation points.
By using AdvancedLines (FiboBands) - PaSKaL , traders can easily spot key areas where the price is likely to reverse or consolidate, or where the trend may continue. It is particularly useful for trend-following, scalping, and range-trading strategies.
Key Features:
Automatic Fibonacci Level Calculation :
- The indicator automatically calculates and plots key Fibonacci levels (0.236, 0.382, 0.5, 0.618, and 0.764), which are crucial for identifying potential support and resistance levels in the market.
Adjustable Parameters :
- Bands Length: You can adjust the bands_length setting to change the number of bars used for calculating the highest high and lowest low. This gives flexibility for using the indicator on different timeframes and trading styles.
- Visibility: The Fibonacci levels, as well as the midline (0.5 Fibonacci level), can be shown or hidden based on your preference.
- Color Customization: You can change the color of each Fibonacci level and background fills to suit your chart preferences.
Fibonacci Levels
- The main Fibonacci levels plotted are:
- 0.236 – Minor support/resistance level
- 0.382 – Moderate retracement level
- 0.5 – Midpoint retracement, often used as a key level
- 0.618 – Golden ratio, considered one of the most important Fibonacci levels
- 0.764 – Strong reversal level, often indicating a continuation or change in trend
Background Fill
- The indicator allows you to fill the background between the Fibonacci levels and the bands with customizable colors. This makes it easier to visually highlight key zones on the chart.
How the Indicator Works:
AdvancedLines (FiboBands) - PaSKaL calculates the range (difference between the highest high and the lowest low) over a user-defined number of bars (e.g., 300). Fibonacci levels are derived from this range, helping traders identify potential price reversal points.
Mathematical Basis :
Fibonacci retracement levels are based on the Fibonacci sequence, where each number is the sum of the previous two (0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, etc.). The ratios derived from this sequence (such as 0.618 and 0.382) have been widely observed in nature, market cycles, and price movements. These ratios are used to forecast potential price retracements or continuation points after a major price move.

How to Use AdvancedLines (FiboBands) - PaSKaL in Trading :
Range Trading :
Range traders typically buy at support and sell at resistance. Fibonacci levels provide excellent support and resistance zones in a ranging market.
Example: If price reaches the 0.618 level in an uptrend, it may reverse, providing an opportunity to sell.
Conversely, if price drops to the 0.382 level, a bounce might occur, and traders can buy, anticipating the market will stay within the range.
Trend-following Trading :
For trend-following traders, Fibonacci levels act as potential entry points during a retracement. After a strong trend, price often retraces to one of the Fibonacci levels before continuing in the direction of the trend.
Example: In a bullish trend, when price retraces to the 0.382 level, it could be a signal to buy, as the price might resume its upward movement after the correction.
In a bearish trend, retracements to levels like 0.618 or 0.764 could provide optimal opportunities for shorting as the price resumes its downward movement.
Scalping :
Scalpers focus on short-term price movements. Fibonacci levels can help identify precise entry and exit points for quick trades.
Example: If price is fluctuating in a narrow range, a scalper can enter a buy trade at 0.236 and exit at the next Fibonacci level, such as 0.382 or 0.5, capturing small but consistent profits.
Stop-Loss and Take-Profit Levels :
Fibonacci levels can also help in setting stop-loss and take-profit levels.
Example: In a bullish trend, you can set a stop-loss just below the 0.236 level and a take-profit at 0.618.
In a bearish trend, set the stop-loss just above the 0.382 level and the take-profit at 0.764.
Identifying Reversals and Continuations :
Reversals: When price reaches a Fibonacci level and reverses direction, it may indicate the end of a price move.
Trend Continuation: If price bounces off a Fibonacci level and continues in the same direction, this may signal that the trend is still intact.

BB ATR Fractal MMThe Bollinger Bands + ATR with Fractal indicator is a powerful combination of Bollinger Bands, ATR (Average True Range), and Fractal to help identify market volatility and potential entry/exit points on the chart.
Bollinger Bands help to assess the market’s volatility by calculating upper and lower bands based on the simple moving average (SMA) and standard deviation. It’s an excellent tool for identifying overbought and oversold conditions.
ATR (Average True Range) is used to measure market volatility. It helps determine how much the price is moving, and it can be used to adjust the Bollinger Bands, creating bands that reflect the current volatility more accurately.
Fractal helps to identify peaks and troughs in the market, supporting decision-making by highlighting potential reversal points. Fractals mark regions where price may reverse direction, making it easier to spot possible trade opportunities.
How to Use:
Bollinger Bands Upper and Lower Bands: These bands help to identify overbought or oversold conditions. If the price breaks above the upper band, the market may be overbought. If the price breaks below the lower band, the market may be oversold.
ATR: It indicates the volatility level of the market. When the market shows large volatility (ATR increases), the Bollinger Bands expand to reflect higher price swings.
Fractal: Arrows appear at the market’s peaks and troughs, helping identify entry points for buying (at fractal lows) or selling (at fractal highs). These signals can help you make trading decisions based on potential price reversals.
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.
