BBKC Combined Channels Overlay

BBKC Combined Channels Overlay (Volatility & Mean Reversion)This indicator provides a clean, single-view envelope combining the Bollinger Bands (BB) and Keltner Channels (KC) directly onto your price chart. It is an essential tool for traders operating with Volatility Compression (The Squeeze) and Mean Reversion strategies in fast-moving markets like Futures, High BTC Beta Equities, and Crypto. The goal of this tool is twofold: to visually frame the market's current volatility state and to identify high-probability entry points based on expansion or extreme contraction. How to Use the BBKC Overlay: Spotting the Squeeze (Accumulation Phase):The Squeeze is identified when the Bollinger Bands (BB) contract and fit inside the Keltner Channels (KC).The area is clearly marked with a subtle Orange Background Highlight on the main chart. This is the Accumulation phase, signaling low volatility before a potential large directional move. Trading Mean Reversion: When price pushes aggressively outside the outermost bands (the BB Upper/Lower), it signals an extreme volatility expansion and over-extension. This is a strong setup for mean reversion—a high-probability trade targeting a snap-back towards the central Basis Line (SMA).Customizing for Extreme Compression: For traders looking only for the tightest, highest-probability Squeezes, adjust the following setting: KC Multiplier (ATR): Lower this value from the default of 1.5 down to 1.25 or 1.0. This narrows the KC, forcing the Bollinger Bands to contract even further to trigger the Squeeze signal, thus filtering for only the most minimal volatility. Recommended Synergy: For a complete volatility system, pair this BBKC Combined Channels Overlay (your visualization tool) with the BBKC Squeeze Indicator (the sub-pane momentum histogram).Overlay (Main Chart): Shows where the Squeeze is occurring and identifies mean reversion targets. Squeeze Indicator (Lower Pane): Shows if the Squeeze is active and the directional momentum building up, helping you time the breakout entry for the Manipulation/Distribution phase.
