Chauvenet RadiusThe Chauvenet criterion is a well-known criterion of selection and rejection of the data used by the Physics. It establishes that in an experiment is well to discard the data whose distance from the average is greater than a certain number of the delta.
In the stock market if prices move away from the average with a volatility too high are suspect. This principle is embodied in the Chauvenet floor with the definition of two asymptotes and two data areas rejection.
The Chauvenet Radius is the quadratic sum of the delta (distance from average) and sigmoid (volatility) and is therefore an obvious market stability index. In fact the moments when price strongly moves away from the average with high volatility coincide with the moments of high instability of the market.
It can be considered an evolution of John Bollinger method introduced during the '80.

Zero Lag MTF Moving Average by CoffeeshopCryptoBased on Moving Average Types supplied by @TradingView www.tradingview.com
Ideas and code enhanced to show higher timeframe by @CoffeeShopCrypto
It’s time to take the guesswork out of moving averages and multiple timeframes when day trading. Moving averages are a cornerstone of many trading strategies, often viewed as dynamic support and resistance levels. Traders rely on these levels to anticipate price reactions, whether it’s a bounce in a trending market or a reversal in a ranging one. Additionally, the direction and alignment of multi timeframe moving averages—whether they’re moving in the same direction or diverging—provide critical clues about market momentum and potential reversals. However, the traditional higher timeframe moving average indicators force traders to wait for higher timeframe candles to close, creating lag and missed opportunities.
The Old Way
For example: If you are on a 5 minute chart and you want to observe the location and direction of a 30 minute chart Moving Average, you'll need to wait for a total of 6 candles to close, and again every 6 candles after that. This only creates more lag.
The New Way
Now there is no waiting for high timeframe session candles to close. No matter what timeframe Moving Average you want to know about, this indicator will show you its location on your current chart at any time in real time.
For those who prefer Bollinger Bands, this indicator adds a whole new dimension to your strategy. Traders often wait for price action to break outside the lower time frame Bollinger bands before considering a trade, while still seeking key support or resistance levels beyond them. But if you don't know the position of your higher time frame Bollinger, you could be trading into a trap. With Zero Lag Multi Timeframe Moving Average, you can view both your current and higher timeframe Bollinger Bands simultaneously with zero waiting. This lets you instantly see when price action is traveling between the bands of either timeframe or breaking through both—indicating a strong trend in that direction. Additionally, when both sets of Bollinger Bands overlap at the same price levels, it highlights areas of strong consolidation and ranging conditions, giving you a clear picture of market dynamics. This is a key element in price action that tells you there is currently no direction to the market and both the current and higher time frames are flat.
Enter Zero Lag Multi Timeframe Moving Average—the ultimate tool for real-time higher timeframe moving averages and Bollinger Bands. This innovative indicator eliminates the delay, delivering instant, precise values for higher timeframe averages and bands, even on open candles. Seamlessly combining current and higher timeframe data, it allows traders to identify key moments where moving averages or Bollinger Bands align or diverge, signaling market conditions. Whether you’re gauging the strength of a trend, pinpointing potential reversals, or identifying consolidation zones, Zero Lag Multi Timeframe Moving Average gives you the clarity needed to make better trading decisions according to market conditions.
Why is this "Mashup" of moving averages different and important?
Honestly its really about the calculation thats imported through the "import library" function.
Heres what it does:
The ZLMTF-MA is designed to help traders easily see where higher timeframe moving averages and Bollinger Bands are—without needing to switch chart timeframes or wait for those larger candles to close. It works by adjusting common moving average types like SMA, EMA, and VWMA to show what they would look like if they were based on a higher timeframe, right on your current chart. This helps users stay focused on their main timeframe while still having a clear view of the bigger picture, making it easier to spot trend direction, key support and resistance levels, and overall market structure. The goal is to keep things simple, fast, and more visually informative for everyday traders.
Bollinger Bands
When working with Bollinger Bands, a common strategy is to take the trades once price action has escaped through the top or bottom of your current Bollinger Band.
A false breakout occurs when both Bollinger Bands are not moving in the same direction as eachother or when they are overlapping.
Moving Averages as Support and Resistance:
Traders who use Moving Averages as support or resistance, looking for rejections or failures of these areas can now see multiple timeframe price action instantly and simultaneously.
Trading Setup Examples:
Price Action Scenario 1:
Higher Timeframe Ranging-
When price action breaks through a current moving average headed toward a higher timeframe moving average, trades are taken with caution if the moving averages are converging.
Price Action Scenario 2:
Strong Trending Market -
If the moving averages are in the same direction, and your price action is now leading the low timeframe moving average, you have re-entered a strong trend.
Price Action Scenario 3:
High Timeframe Rejections -
If you have a rejection of a higher timeframe moving average, and your both averages are still diverging, this is the end of a pullback as you re-enter a strong trend in the original direction
Price Action Scenario 4:
Trend Reversals -
If you close beyond both the low and high timeframe moving averages, you can consider that price action is strong enough to change direction here and you should prepare for trade setups in the opposite direction of the previous.
HTF MA Label Information:
Even if your high timeframe moving average is turned off, you can still see this label.
It gives you a quick reminder of what high timeframe settings you have used to see MA values.
Johnny's Adjusted BB Buy/Sell Signal"Johnny's Adjusted BB Buy/Sell Signal" leverages Bollinger Bands and moving averages to provide dynamic buy and sell signals based on market conditions. This indicator is particularly useful for traders looking to identify strategic entry and exit points based on volatility and trend analysis.
How It Works
Bollinger Bands Setup: The indicator calculates Bollinger Bands using a specified length and multiplier. These bands serve to identify potential overbought (upper band) or oversold (lower band) conditions.
Moving Averages: Two moving averages are calculated — a trend moving average (trendMA) and a long-term moving average (longTermMA) — to gauge the market's direction over different time frames.
Market Phase Determination: The script classifies the market into bullish or bearish phases based on the relationship of the closing price to the long-term moving average.
Strong Buy and Sell Signals: Enhanced signals are generated based on how significantly the price deviates from the Bollinger Bands, coupled with the average candle size over a specified lookback period. The signals are adjusted based on whether the market is bullish or bearish:
In bullish markets, a strong buy signal is triggered if the price significantly drops below the lower Bollinger Band. Conversely, a strong sell signal is activated when the price rises well above the upper band.
In bearish markets, these signals are modified to be more conservative, adjusting the thresholds for triggering strong buy and sell signals.
Features:
Flexibility: Users can adjust the length of the Bollinger Bands and moving averages, as well as the multipliers and factors that determine the strength of buy and sell signals, making it highly customizable to different trading styles and market conditions.
Visual Aids: The script vividly plots the Bollinger Bands and moving averages, and signals are visually represented on the chart, allowing traders to quickly assess trading opportunities:
Regular buy and sell signals are indicated by simple shapes below or above price bars.
Strong buy and sell signals are highlighted with distinctive colors and placed prominently to catch the trader's attention.
Background Coloring: The background color changes based on the market phase, providing an immediate visual cue of the market's overall sentiment.
Usage:
This indicator is ideal for traders who rely on technical analysis to guide their trading decisions. By integrating both Bollinger Bands and moving averages, it provides a multi-faceted view of market trends and volatility, making it suitable for identifying potential reversals and continuation patterns. Traders can use this tool to enhance their understanding of market dynamics and refine their trading strategies accordingly.
Best scalping toolExplanation:
This script is a comprehensive indicator that combines three essential technical analysis tools: Money Flow Index (MFI), Relative Strength Index (RSI), and Bollinger Bands (Bollinger %B). It provides insights into market conditions related to cross points of mfi,rsi and B%B.
A buy condition is created when the last candle RSI and MFI are under the bollinger bands, and then in the actual candle the RSI cross up the bollinger low band.
A sell condition is created when the last candle RSI and MFI are above the bollinger bands, and then in the actual candle the RSI cross down the bollinger high band.
Key Components:
MFI (Money Flow Index):
Utilizes the MFI indicator based on a specified length.
Overbought and oversold levels (80 and 20, respectively).
RSI (Relative Strength Index): (Adapted to the mfi chart)
Allows selection of different moving average types (SMA, EMA, etc.) for the RSI calculation.
RSI along with upper and lower bands (70 and 30).
Bollinger Bands:
Provides upper and lower Bollinger Bands based on the RSI's standard deviation.
Visualization Options:
Allows the user to choose between show the buy (green arrow) and the sell (red arrow) .
How It Works:
The indicator amalgamates these three powerful technical indicators to help traders identify potential entry or exit points. The green arrow its a buy signal and the red arrow is a sell signal.
By offering configurable settings and clear visual cues, this indicator assists traders in recognizing critical market conditions and potential trading opportunities.
Disclaimer: This indicator should be used as a tool in a broader trading strategy and not solely for making trading decisions. It's recommended to combine it with other technical or fundamental analysis for comprehensive trading decisions.
Banded Chikou Breakout — Quantifying Ichimoku MomentumTitle: Banded Chikou Breakout — Quantifying Ichimoku Momentum
Overview:
Banded Chikou Breakout (BCB) is a unique, algorithmic script designed to augment the capabilities of traders seeking substantial breakout opportunities. Constructed on the robust principles of the Ichimoku trading strategy, BCB is designed to quantify and filter the Chikou Span's significant breakouts above or below the price action. This script does not aim to replace the Ichimoku system; instead, it enhances it, providing an optimized tool for momentum trading.
Rationale:
Ichimoku traders often scrutinize the Chikou Span's position relative to price action to identify market trends. However, determining whether the Chikou Span is above or below due to a genuine trend or mere market noise can be challenging in choppy markets. BCB resolves this predicament by offering a unique way to interpret the Chikou Span's movement. It does so by quantifying the Chikou Span's momentum and utilizing Bollinger Bands to determine its significance. By effectively differentiating substantial movements from the insignificant, BCB can help traders better navigate the market and increase their potential for profitable trades.
How it Works:
BCB combines three key elements: a Momentum Script (simulating Chikou Span), a Bollinger Band Script, and a Timeframe Switcher, all working together to provide a refined trading perspective.
Momentum Script: Calculates the price difference between the current price and the price 'n' periods ago, transforming the Chikou Span into a quantifiable momentum value that signifies the strength and speed of a market move.
Bollinger Band Script: Computes a Simple Moving Average (SMA) around the momentum, plotting two 'bands' at a specified standard deviation from this SMA. This functionality allows traders to discern when the Chikou Span's momentum is abnormally high or low, signifying a potential significant breakout.
Timeframe Switcher: This feature lets traders apply the BCB script to a different timeframe from the one they are currently viewing. This capability can help traders identify higher timeframe breakouts and trade them with precision on the lower timeframe.
How to Use:
BCB is designed to complement the Ichimoku strategy for effective breakout identification.
Add the BCB script to your trading chart. It plots the momentum (yellow line) and Bollinger Bands (green lines) with the area between the bands shaded blue.
Utilize the Ichimoku strategy to identify larger and smaller timeframe trends.
Optional: Leverage the timeframe switcher to synchronize your trades with higher timeframe trends while operating on lower timeframes.
If the BCB momentum line crosses the upper Bollinger Band while the Ichimoku indicates a bullish trend, it signifies a potential significant upward breakout. Similarly, a cross below the lower band during a bearish trend could denote a significant downward breakout.
Remember, without the context provided by the Ichimoku system's trend analysis, BCB can yield false breakouts. It is, therefore, crucial to use these tools in tandem. I like to check for an Ichimoku trend on the 4H and 1H charts, and then use BCB on charts <60 minutes to capture trends with precision.
SuperBollingerTrend (Expo)█ Overview
The SuperBollingerTrend indicator is a combination of two popular technical analysis tools, Bollinger Bands, and SuperTrend. By fusing these two indicators, SuperBollingerTrend aims to provide traders with a more comprehensive view of the market, accounting for both volatility and trend direction. By combining trend identification with volatility analysis, the SuperBollingerTrend indicator provides traders with valuable insights into potential trend changes. It recognizes that high volatility levels often accompany stronger price momentum, which can result in the formation of new trends or the continuation of existing ones.
█ How Volatility Impacts Trends
Volatility can impact trends by expanding or contracting them, triggering trend reversals, leading to breakouts, and influencing risk management decisions. Traders need to analyze and monitor volatility levels in conjunction with trend analysis to gain a comprehensive understanding of market dynamics.
█ How to use
Trend Reversals: High volatility can result in more dramatic price fluctuations, which may lead to sharp trend reversals. For example, a sudden increase in volatility can cause a bullish trend to transition into a bearish one, or vice versa, as traders react to significant price swings.
Volatility Breakouts: Volatility can trigger breakouts in trends. Breakouts occur when the price breaks through a significant support or resistance level, indicating a potential shift in the trend. Higher volatility levels can increase the likelihood of breakouts, as they indicate stronger market momentum and increased buying or selling pressure. This indicator triggers when the volatility increases, and if the price is near a key level when the indicator alerts, it might trigger a great trend.
█ Features
Peak Signal Move
The indicator calculates the peak price move for each ZigZag and displays it under each signal. This highlights how much the market moved between the signals.
Average ZigZag Move
All price moves between two signals are stored, and the average or the median is calculated and displayed in a table. This gives traders a great idea of how much the market moves on average between two signals.
Take Profit
The Take Profit line is placed at the average or the median price move and gives traders a great idea of what they can expect in average profit from the latest signals.

BB Signal v2.1 [ABA Invest]About
This signal appears based on 2nd candle break out of Bollinger Bands (called Momentum) with additional EMA 50 and EMA 200 as trend filters. so the concept is to take advantage of candle breakout by following trends.
How to use
Buy: When signal 'Buy' appears (following trend of upper timeframe)
Recommended stop loss: previous swing low
Sell: When signal 'Sell' appears (following trend of upper timeframe)
Recommended stop loss: previous swing high
Rules
1. use a good risk-reward ratio (minimum 1.5)
2. Please do backtest before using this signal
3. Don't always take every signal (must know when to stop)
Sentinel Program - A Bollinger Band Strategy, with alertsThis script plots the Bollinger Bands and confirms entry and exits by using RSI values, Stoch, and ADX Curve. Works on any time-frame.
The scope of the script is to reduce the number of fake breakouts to prevent further declines when entering positions. Often times when using Bollinger bands, a close below the lower band presents a buying opportunity but there is further movent to the downside and vise versa when taking profits.
Entry Conditions
Prior candle low below lower band
RSI above 30
Stochastic crossover above 20
ADX curve greater than 25
Exit Conditions
Prior candle highw above upper band
RSI crosses below 70
Stochastic crossunder above 80
Each of the above values can be adjusted in the inputs menu to fine-tune your entry and exit positions.
Using COINBASE:ETHUSD we can see that the conditions have been met before plotting buy and sell signals.
I have added alerts to help identify possible entry and exits and from there I manually enter or exit / adjust stop-loss. For example, sometimes it will print a sell signal because stochastic crossed over but RSI is still rising so I will adjust a tighter stop-loss to capture further gain if they are there.
Test it out, adjust the settings to see if you can find better results, and let me know!
Fibonacci Bollinger Bands Alerts [QuantNomad]These are alerts for my Fibonacci Bollinger Bands Strategy. You can find more details and strategy description in it:

ORTI Bollinger Bands V3 (Static Timeframe Multi-Period)The "ORTI Bollinger Bands V3 (Static Timeframe Multi-Period MA)" is public scrypt, based in a previous study, but with some better functions (“ORTI Bollinger Bands V2 (Static Timeframe Multi-Period MA”).
This is a redesigned and recalculated set of the common plotted lines with the typical two "Standard Deviations" (positively and negatively) away from the original calculation of a "Simple Moving Average" of the security's price.
But now, with the option to convert the "Simple Moving Average" to adapt into 9 different kinds of "Moving Averages", to have a much more robust indicator which in turn would serve both as "Bollinger Bands" and by any of the most used "Moving Averages", a hybrid basically.
The following options to convert the "Simple Moving Average" ( SMA ) to:
• Exponential Moving Average ( EMA )
• Weighted Moving Average ( WMA )
• Arnaud Legoux Moving Average ( ALMA )
• Hull Moving Average ( HMA )
• Volume-weighted Moving Average ( VWMA )
• Least Square Moving Average ( LSMA )
• Smoothed Moving Average ( SMMA )
• Double Exponential Moving Average ( DEMA )
The cherry on the top , for this private version: is when you want to get a predetermined count in "natural temporalities" as minutes, hours or days, in any graph you could get a static average, and this count will be automatically respected. For example, a "Moving Average" could be configurated to know a trend per day, week or month... or whatever comes to mind, and at every single chart that you move through (5m, 15m, 1h, 4h, etc), you will see the same average to make your own "trend analysis" into a micro/macro market view.
As in traditional "Bollinger Bands", the "Standard Deviations" are still a measure of volatility , when markets become more volatile, bands widen, during the less volatile periods, the bands contract.
A common fact in trading is that, prices vary most of the time and there is a lot of truth in this assertion, since the markets consolidate mainly as bullish andbearish . Market trends are sometimes very rare, so trading them may not be as easy as you might think. If we look at prices in this way, we can define the trend as a deviation from the norm (rank).
Usually, most Traders use “Moving Averages” to identify commercial areas and analyze markets. A “Moving Average” helps the Trader isolate the trend a lot and can also indicate when a trend may be receding.
The importance of using any of the “Moving Averages” in the “Bollinger Bands”, becomes a reality and reveals the average price of a marketable instrument in a given period of time. However, there are different ways to calculate the averages, and that is why there are different types of “Moving Averages”. They are called "in motion" because, as the price moves, new data is added to the calculation, thus changing the average.
The base of the “Bollinger Bands” measures and represents the deviation or volatility of the price and this is the reason why they can be very useful to identify a trend. Even the use of two sets of “Bollinger Bands”, one generated with the parameter "one Standard Deviation" and the other with the typical configuration of "two Standard Deviations", can help us to see the price in a different way.
Another great advantage of “Bollinger Bands” is that, they adjust dynamically as volatility increases and decreases. As a result, the “Bollinger Bands” automatically expand and contract in synchronization with the price action, creating an envelope of precise trends.
Note: The previous calculation example is not the default, the parameters can be adjusted according to the criteria of the merchant.
As everyone knows, and as you can find on the internet, the "Moving Averages" are one of the most commonly used technical indicators in Stock, Futures , Forex and Crypto trading. Market analysts and traders, use "Moving Averages" to help identify trends in price fluctuations, smoothing out the noise and short-lived spikes (from news and earnings announcements, for example) for individual securities or indexes.
They are calculated by adding recent closing prices and then dividing that by the number of time periods in the calculation average. A simple, or arithmetic, a "Moving Average" that is calculated by adding the closing price of the security for several time periods and then dividing this total by that same number of periods. Short-term averages respond quickly to changes in the price of the underlying, while long-term averages are slow to react.
There are different types of "Moving Averages", calculated in different ways and over different time periods, which reveal different information for traders. The type of "Moving Average" and measurement period used determine the strategies a trader implements. So, many traders watch for short-term averages to cross above longer-term averages to signal the beginning of an uptrend. Short-term averages can act as levels of support when the price experiences a pullback.
As is usual, traders and market analysts commonly use several periods in creating "Moving Averages" to plot on their charts. For identifying significant, long-term support and resistance levels and overall trends, but they only consider the 50-day, 100-day and 200-day moving averages as the most common. Based on historical statistics, these longer-term moving averages are considered more reliable trend indicators and less susceptible to temporary fluctuations in price.
There is such popular trading patterns that use "Simple Moving Averages" include the “death cross” and a “golden cross”. A “death cross” occurs when the short period "Moving Average" crosses below the long period "Moving Average" and this is considered abearish signal that further losses are in store; the “golden cross” occurs when a short-term "Moving Average" breaks above a long-term moving average, this can signal further gains are in store, that is interpreted as bearish .
The 5-, 10-, 20-, and 50-day moving averages are often used to spot near-term trend changes. Changes in direction by any of these shorter-term "Moving Averages" are watched as possible early clues to longer-term trend changes. Crossovers of the 50-day moving average by either the 10-day or 20-day "Moving Averages" are regarded as significant. The 10-day "Moving Average", plotted on an hourly chart, is frequently used to guide traders in intraday trading.
For more technical information: Investopedia
But why we have to use in our TECHNICAL ANALYSISthe same Moving Averages (10, 20, 30, 50, 100 and 200) for all time frame OHLC charts (1m, 5m, 15m, 1h, 4h, 1d, 1w and 1m)? That does not make any sense.
This is when you must go back to (statistic) basics: reliability and validity are a very important aspects of selecting a survey instrument. Reliability refers to the extent that the instrument yields the same results over multiple trials. Validity refers to the extent that the instrument measures what it was designed to measure.
Content validity measures the extent to which the items that comprise the scale accurately represent or measure the information that is being assessed. Are the real traders answering this question, that are asked representative of the possible data that they are trying to read? Well, I think maybe not.
Such as correlations, to verify the relevance of the “timeframe” questions, we could start at… Operation hours, the first data that has you should find may be is correlated with questions from: Does your trend indicator has a straight relationship of time under your time-analisys examination to determine if validity is present? If the scores are highly correlated, it is called convergent validity, then if convergent validity exists and validity is supported.
Criterion-related validity has to do with how well works the counting from the instrument, as a known outcome they are expected in a real, natural and measurable lapse time. Such as correlations are used to determine if criterion-related validity your counting data, would must be at: minutes, days, weeks, months, etc.
That is when we start with the rhythm, as in music. If your trading day in operation at Forex is made up of 24-hours, during 5-days of the week, there you have your first clue. Now, what did you want and have to measure? Well, first of all you need a daily, weekly and monthly count to begin with all your indicators.
For some reason, there are a lot of questions about time and calendars which all are answered by reference to astrology, because the original purpose of astrology was to create a reliable method of measuring the passage of time, the clock by which we live our lives: 12 Hours. It is very interesting!
Even though there are really 24 hours in a day, but therefore you would think we should have 12-time units in our day, not 24, each of which is twice as long as our current hour. But the only reason we would think like this is because we have forgotten about the way ancient astrology divides the time lapses into smaller units.
And now, the next step is when you should refresh your elementary school classes, those mathematics that I'm pretty sure you so hated: relation of prime numbers, compound numbers, divisible numbers and multiples.
You may think about the relationship that exists between the time period and the operative session, as well as the chart that you are consulting; so then, you must find the ideal configuration of those numbers that are only divisible between themselves and 1, or the numbers that besides being divisible by themselves and the unit and are also divisible by other numbers.
For example: for an hourly chart, if a day is divided into 24-hours in base of the number 12, is because it has a larger number of integer factors: 12/6=2, 12/4=3, 12/3=4, 12/2=6. Son then, all of your other indicators should find this relation.
This is when you must start questioning yourself, if you are really working with an adequate configuration of Moving Averages and Oscillators?
Another example:
• Relative Strength Index (14)
• Stochastic %K (14, 3, 3)
• Commodity Channel Index (20)
• Average Directional Index (14)
• Momentum (10)
• MACD Level (12, 26, 9)
• Stochastic RSI Fast (3, 3, 14, 14)
• Williams Percent Range (14)
• Ultimate Oscillator (7, 14, 28)
Stochastic Bollinger StrategyBollinger defaults = 20, close, 2
Stochastic defaults = 13, 5, 5
Buy Signal (GREEN triangle):
BULLISH candle formed
Candle OPEN is LESS than LOWER Bollinger Band
Stochastic (K) is LESS than 20
Sell Signal (RED triangle):
BEARISH candle formed
Candle OPEN is GREATER than UPPER Bollinger Band
Stochastic (K) is GREATER than 80

This indicator alert is a variation of one found in a well known Broker's marketing videos. It uses Bollinger bands, RSI and moving averages. Included is a pre-warning alert condition. The strategy and settings are designed for 1min charts and Binary Options, but it could work for up to 15 min charts.
The default settings are BB(14,2) and RSI(11) with 75/25 Levels boundaries. To be a valid trade the RSI needs to be within 75/25 channel. The optional Market direction filter is enabled by default and is calculated by two EMA (200 and 50):
When 200ema rising and 50ema above 200ema then market going up.
When 200ema falling and 50ema below 200ema then market going down.
A potential Bollinger Break reversal trades identified by shapes: The purple diamond is the pre-warning purple alert and the green and red pointers with the PUT/CALL labels are the trade alerts. Make Binary Option trade in specified direction 60sec (or can also use 120sec trade without Martingale).
* Notes and Hints *
The original videos specified a Martingale money management strategy, be careful using this management. When I use Martingale I recommend go to 3 levels: 10, 25, 65 if no win at 65 stop trading this alert and start next alert back at 10, you should recovery loss by future wins given you are able to get a reasonable ITM rate with this strategy. Alternatively instead of using Martingale use 120sec Binary Option trade.
Be wary of break alerts on a steep Bollinger, they tend to keep running away for awhile, especially if steep on both sides of Bollinger channel.
As with most of this style of indicator the alert conditions will redraw until the candle is closed. For me this is okay, as it is an Alert is only to a potential trade and final decision to trade is made by me.
You need to practise this and be aware of market news, sessions boundaries, slow trading periods etc. Plan your periods of when you should trade, I prefer Asian session before lunch and London sessions.
Simple Bollinger Bands Toolkit™TradeChartist Simple Bollinger Bands Toolkit is a useful set of Bollinger Bands based utilities, which includes 0 mean %B Oscillator , price volatility based BB Width , actual Bollinger Bands and BB Breakout Signals .

™TradeChartist Simple Bollinger Bands Toolkit Features
================================================
Modified %B Oscillator with 0 as its mean
%B Oscillator Over-Bought (typically values > 80/90/100) and Over-Sold zones (typically values < - 80/-90/-100) can be displayed by enabling Show Over-Sold/Over-Bought Zones .
Highs and Lows of the %B Oscillator are displayed to help visualize Divergences.
BB Width as Price Volatility (BB Upper Band - BB Lower Band) can be displayed to visualize BB Squeeze zones.
Actual Bollinger Bands can be plotted by enabling Display Bollinger Bands . To display on main price chart, just move the BB Toolkit to price chart and merge the scales.
Breakout Signals can be displayed by enabling Display Bollinger Bands and Show BB Breakout Signals . This also displays background fill to help visualize the zones since the breakouts of upper/lower bands happened.
The BB Basis/Mean line is colour coded based on the %B Oscillator (%B>0 - Green, %B<0 - Red).
The Toolkit uses Simple Moving Average (SMA) for the basis line.
The default length is 55 and default Standard Deviation is 1. %B Oscillator can be smoothed (default - 5) using EMA to minimize noise. (Use 20 length and 2 standard deviation for classic Bollinger Bands).
Price Bars on the Main Price chart can be coloured by enabling BB Colour Bars .

Bollinger Bands Width and Bollinger Bands %BThis script shows both the Bollinger Band Width(BBW) and %B on the same indicator window.
Both the BBW and %B are introduced by John Bollinger(creator of Bollinger Bands) in 2010.
Default Parameter values: Length = 20, Source = Close, Mult = 2
Bollinger Bands Width (BBW): Color = (Default: Green )
- I consider stocks with "BBW >= 4" are at a volatile state and ready for price contraction, but this depends on the parameter values of your choice.
Bollinger Bands %B (%B): Color = (Default: Blue )
1. %B Above 10 = Price is Above the Upper Band
2. %B Equal to 10 = Price is at the Upper Band
3. %B Above 5 = Price is Above the Middle Line
4. %B Below 5 = Price is Below the Middle Line
5. %B Equal to 0 = Price is at the Lower Band
6. %B Below 0 = Price is Below the Lower Band
Alert// Short+long: SAR+HMA+Bollinger+support/resistanceHello, dear friends.
This script can be used for various strategies. Whether it's a scalp like now or more positional purchases. To determine the minimum and maximum, SAR ,resistance points, support points+HMA+ Bollinger channel are used. The entry occurs when the SAR intersects with the HMA , if it is above or below the support/ resistance levels.
In the settings there is a "back" how many bars to use back to search for these conditions.Also the standard setting is SAR+ multiplier.
The strategy based on these alerts is the same, but the conditions stipulate that the entry into the deal does not occur (while you are in the deal) if the purchase is more expensive than the previous one.
Bollinger Bands %B Compare VixThis imple script converts your chosen chart price and outputs it as a percentage in relation to the Vix percentage.
If price (Blue line) is higher than 0.60 and vix (Red Line) is lower than 0. 40 then there is lower volatility and this is good for buying.
If price (Blue line) is lower than 0. 40 and vix (Red Line) is higher than 0.60 then there is higher volatility and this is good for selling, exiting and cash only.
If you like risk you can enter as soon as the price and vix cross in either direction
This is my first script, please give me a lot of critique, I won't cry hahaha :)
For greater accuracy, you use these Vix products for their specific stocks/Indicies:
Apple - VXAPL
Google - VXGOG
Amazon - CBOE:VXAZN
IBM - CBOE:VXIBM
Goldman Sachs - CBOE:VXGS
NASDAQ 100 = CBOE:VXN
SP100 - CBOE:VXO
SP500 (3months) - VIX3M
XLE(energy sector) - CBOE:VXXLE
EWZ(brazil etf) - VXEWZ
EEM( emerging markets etf) - CBOE:VXEEM
EFA (MSCI ETF) - CBOE:VXEFA
FXI (Cina ETF) - CBOE:VXFXI
Double Bollinger Bands strategyLong Trade Setups:
To go long (to buy), you have to wait for one of the candlesticks to close above the BB upper band. (background color is green)
Short Trade Setups:
To go short (to sell), you have to wait for one of the candlesticks to close below the BB lower band. (background color is red)
How To Maximize Your Profit?
As I explained above, this trading system is good in catching the trends. Therefore, you’d better to take the advantage of the strong movements and maximize your profit.
When there is a strong trade setup, you can also take two positions with the same stop loss, when there is a trade setup based on the Double Bollinger Bands trading system. Set a 2 x SL target for the first position, and no target for the second one. If the first position hits the target, move the second’s position stop loss to breakeven and hold it (TLDR : Hold a sell as long as background is red)
In case of a long position, hold the second position as long as the candlesticks form between the BB1 and BB2 upper bands, or above the Bollinger Middle Band. Close the second position when candlesticks start crossing the BB1 upper bands, or when one of the candlesticks breaks below the Bollinger Middle Band . (TLDR : Holda buy as long as background is green)
[TS] ScalperThis indicator is our oscillator-based scalper.
In order to detect a trend reversal (for a scalping trade), the script is checking multiple oscillators ( Stochastic RSI, RSI, TS Oscillator, etc) looking for Overbought or Oversold scenarios.
After such a scenario is detected, the indicator verifies the state of the Volume, BollingerBands, the candle size and/or pattern in order to trigger a signal.
*The indicator will not work on exchanges that do not provide volume data!
The only adjustable input is the lookback length, which adjusts the maximum allowed distance (number of candles) between the Oscillator Overbought/Oversold states, BollingerBands state and candle size/pattern condition.
