Fibonacci Volatility BandsFibonacci Volatility Bands are just an alternative that allows for more margin than regular Bollinger Bands. They are created based on an average of moving averages that use the Fibonacci sequence as lookback periods.
The use of the Fibonacci Volatility Bands is exactly the same as the Bollinger Bands.

Resampling Reverse Engineering Bands [DW]This is an experimental study designed to reverse engineer price levels from centered oscillators at user defined sample rates.
This study aims to educate users on the process of oscillator reverse engineering, and to give users an alternative perspective on some of the most commonly used oscillators in the trading game.
Reverse engineering price levels from an oscillator is actually a rather simple, straightforward process.
Rather than plugging price values into a function to solve for oscillator values, we rearrange the function using some basic algebraic operations and plug in a specified oscillator value to solve for price values instead.
This process tells us what price value is needed in order for the oscillator to equal a certain value.
For example, if you wanted to know what price value would be considered “overbought” or “oversold” according to your oscillator, you can do that using this process.
In this study, the reverse engineering functions are used to calculate the price values of user defined high and low oscillator thresholds, and the price values for the oscillator center.
This allows you to visualize what prices will trigger thresholds as a sort of confidence interval, which is information that isn't inherently available when simply analyzing the oscillator directly.
This script is equipped with three reverse engineering functions to choose from for calculating the band values:
-> Reverse Relative Strength Index (RRSI)
-> Reverse Stochastic Oscillator (RStoch)
-> Reverse Commodity Channel Index (RCCI)
You can easily select the function you want to utilize from the "Band Calculation Type" dropdown tab.
These functions are specially designed to calculate at any sample rate (up to 1 bar per sample) utilizing the process of downsampling that I introduced in my Resampling Filter Pack.
The sample rate can be determined with any of these three methods:
-> BPS - Resamples based on the number of bars.
-> Interval - Resamples based on time in multiples of current charting timeframe.
-> PA - Resamples based on changes in price action by a specified size. The PA algorithm in this script is derived from my Range Filter algorithm.
The range for PA method can be sized in points, pips, ticks, % of price, ATR, average change, and absolute quantity.
Utilizing downsampled rates allows you to visualize the reverse engineered values of an oscillator calculated at larger sample scales.
This can be rather beneficial for trend analysis since lower sample rates completely remove certain levels of noise.
By default, the sample rate is set to 1 BPS, which is the same as bar-to-bar calculation. Feel free to experiment with the sample rate parameters and configure them how you like.
Custom bar colors are included as well. The color scheme is based on disparity between sources and the reverse engineered center level.
In addition, background highlights are included to indicate when price is outside the bands, thus indicating "overbought" and "oversold" conditions according to the thresholds you set.
I also included four external output variables for easy integration of signals with other scripts:
-> Trend Signals (Current Resolution Prices) - Outputs 1 for bullish and -1 for bearish based on disparity between current resolution source and the central level output.
-> Trend Signals (Resampled Prices) - Outputs 1 for bullish and -1 for bearish based on disparity between resampled source and the central level output.
-> Outside Band Signal (Current Resolution Prices) - Outputs 1 for overbought and -1 for oversold based on current resolution source being outside the bands. Returns 0 otherwise.
-> Outside Band Signal (Resampled Prices) - Outputs 1 for overbought and -1 for oversold based on resampled source being outside the bands. Returns 0 otherwise.
To use these signals with another script, simply select the corresponding external output you want to use from your script's source input dropdown tab.
Reverse engineering oscillators is a simple, yet powerful approach to incorporate into your momentum or trend analysis setup.
By incorporating projected price levels from oscillators into our analysis setups, we are able to gain valuable insights, make (potentially) smarter trading decisions, and visualize the oscillators we know and love in a totally different way.
I hope you all find this script useful and enjoyable!

Fractal Deviation Bands idea by @XeL_Arjona
CHANGE LOG:
ACCUMULATION / DISTRIBUTION CLOUD: I decided to change it's name from the Buy to Sell Pressure. The code is essentially the same as older versions and they are the center core (VORTEX?) of all derived New stuff which are:
MORPHIC NUMBERS: The "Golden Ratio" expressed by the result of the constant "PHI" and the newer and same in characteristics "Plastic Number" expressed as "PN". For more information about this regard take a look at: HERE!
CUSTOM(K) EXPONENTIAL MOVING AVERAGE: Some code has cleaned from last version to include as custom function the nEMA , which use an additional input (K) to customise the way the "exponentially" is weighted from the custom array. For the purpose of this indicator, I implement a volatility algorithm using the Average True Range of last 9 periods multiplied by the morphic number used in the fractal study. (Golden Ratio as default) The result is very similar in response to classic EMA but tend to accelerate or decelerate much more responsive with wider bars presented in trending average.
FRACTAL DEVIATION BANDS: The main idea is based on the so useful Standard Deviation process to create Bands in favor of a multiplier (As John Bollinger used in it's own bands) from a custom array, in which for this case is the "Volume Pressure Moving Average" as the main Vortex for the "Fractallitly", so then apply as many "Child bands" using the older one as the new calculation array using the same morphic constant as multiplier (Like Fibonacci but with other approach rather than %ratios). Results are AWSOME! Market tend to accelerate or decelerate their Trend in favor of a Fractal approach. This bands try to catch them, so please experiment and feedback me your own observations.
EXTERNAL TICKER FOR VOLUME DATA: I Added a way to input volume data for this kind of study from external tickers. This is just a quicky-hack given that currently TradingView is not adding Volume to their Indexes so; maybe this is temporary by now. It seems that this part of the code is conflicting with intraday timeframes, so You are advised.
This CODE is versioned as BETA FOR TESTING PROPOSES. By now TradingView Admins are changing lot's of things internally, so maybe this could conflict with correct rendering of this study with special tickers or timeframes. I will try to code by itself just the core parts of this study in order to use them at discretion in other areas. ALL NEW IDEAS OR MODIFICATIONS to these indicator(s) are Welcome in favor to deploy a better and more accurate readings.

Volume Adaptive BandsIntroduction
I have been asked by @Coppermine and @Verbena to make bands that use volume to provide adaptive results. My first approach was to use exponential averaging, in order to do so i needed to quantify volume movement using rescaling with the objective to make the bands go away from each others when there is low volume, this approach is efficient and can work on any time frame, however i decided at the end to use another method which rely on recursive weighting, cleaner but more parametric. Those bands aim to highlight great breakouts point to go with the trend.
The Indicator
length control the period of the moving averages used in the script, however low length's don't necessarily provide indications for shorter terms breakouts as shown here :
As i said the bands are close to each others when there is high volume and away when there is low volumes.
Low volume period, bands will avoid to cross price
High volume, bands will be close to generate signals.
Correction Factor
Higher time frames will lower the distance between each band, this is because volume is higher during higher time frames, remember that the indicator bands are close to each others when volume is high.
1h chart eurusd.
This is why i added a correction factor, this factor can help you control the distance between each bands, when the correction factor is greater than 1 the bands will be closer to each others, this is useful for low time frames where the average volume is lower. When the time frame is high, use values between 0 and 1 to increase distance between each bands.
Correction factor = 0.2
Conclusion
I presented a new adaptive band indicator that adapt to trading volume by using recursive weighting, volume can be replaced by other indicators but you can have results going nuts, at the end its about experimentation. I hope you will find an use to it, thanks to @Coppermine and @Verbena for the request :)
Thanks for reading !
Bollinger Bands Filter
Bollinger Bands is a classic indicator that uses a simple moving average of 20 periods, along with plots of upper and lower bands that are 2 standard deviations away from the basis line. These bands help visualize price volatility and trend based on where the price is, in relation to the bands.
Bollinger Bands filter plots a long signal when price closes above the upper band and plots a short signal when price closes below the lower band. It doesn't take into account any other parameters such as Volume/RSI/ Fundamentals etc, so user must use discretion based on confirmations from another indicator or based on fundamentals.
The filter works great when the price closes above/below upper/lower bands with continuation on next bar. It is definitely useful to have this filter along with other indicators to get early glimpse of breach/fail of bands on candle close during BB squeeze or based on volatility.
This can be used on Heikin Ashi candles for spotting trends, but HA candles are not recommended for trade entries as they don't reflect true price of the asset.
This filter's default is 55 SMA and 1 standard deviation, but these can be changed from settings.
It is definitely worth reading the 22 rules of Bollinger Bands written by John Bollinger.
==================================================================
Note:
1. Alerts can be created for long and short signals using "Once per bar close".
2. The indicator doesn't repaint.

Kaufman Adaptive BandsIntroduction
Bands are quite efficient in technical analysis, they can provide support and resistance levels, provide breakouts points, trailing stop loss/take profits positions and can show the current market volatility to the user. Most of the time bands are made from a central tendency estimator like a moving average plus/minus a volatility indicator. Therefore bands can be made out of pretty much everything thus allowing for any kind of flavors.
So i propose a band indicator made from a Kaufman adaptive moving average using an estimate of the standard deviation.
Construction
The Kaufman moving average is an exponential averager using the efficiency ratio as smoothing variable, length control the period of kama and in order to provide more smoothness a power parameter has been introduced, higher values of power will return smoother results.
The volatility indicator is made from a biased estimation of the standard deviation by using the square root of the mean of the square minus the square of the mean method, except that we use kama instead of a mean.
The bands are made by adding/subtracting this volatility indicator with kama.
How To Use
The ability of the indicator to adapt to the current market state is what makes him a great tool for avoiding major exposition during ranging market, therefore the indicator will have a greater motion during trending market, or more simply the bands will move during trending markets while staying "flat" during ranging ones. Therefore the indicator might be more suited to breakouts, even if some cases will return what where turning points, this is particularly true during ranging markets.
Of course the efficiency ratio is not an "unbiased" trend metric indicator, it can consider high volatility markets as trending markets. Its one of his downsides.
High values of power will create smoother bands.
When using a low power parameter use an higher mult. In general using a low power value will make the bands move more freely as well as making them closer to each others.
Conclusion
At least the indicator is really nice to the eyes when using high power values, its ability to adapt to the market is a great addition to other more classical bands indicators, i also introduced a volatility estimator based on kama, some might have used the following estimation : kama(abs(price - kama)) which would have created a slower result. A trailing stop might be made from it if i see request about such addition.
If you are curious here are some more images of the indicator performing on different markets. Thanks for reading !
Standard Error Bands by @XeL_arjonaStandard Error Bands - Code by @XeL_arjona
Original implementation by:
Traders issue: Stocks & Commodities V. 14:9 (375-379):
Standard Error Bands by Jon Andersen
Version 1
For a quick and publicly open explanation of this Statistical indicator, you can refer at Here!
Extract from the former URL:
Standard Error bands are quite different than Bollinger's. First, they are bands constructed around a linear regression curve. Second, the bands are based on two standard errors above and below this regression line. The error bands measure the standard error of the estimate around the linear regression line. Therefore, as a price series follows the course of the regression line the bands will narrow, showing little error in the estimate. As the market gets noisy and random, the error will be greater resulting in wider bands.
ATR BandsIt has happened to everybody. You enter the market, the position gets a stop loss, then later the market goes in the direction you originally planned. Worse yet - you enter a position, the market goes in your favor, gets near the target, and then it reverses and you get stopped.
We brazilians call this a "violinado", or getting violinated. It happens either because:
1. You put the stop loss too close, or the target too far
2. You entered in the right direction, but at a wrong time
While the second point cannot be programmly adressed, the first can. One popular way of setting a stop loss is by using the average of the true range, it even has a built-in indicator in TV. The problem with it is that you can still get violinated, since as the trend develops, the stop loss only goes up, never down. So if you enter at the wrong time, one slip can still take you out of the market.
Since I got sick of losing money using a conventional stop loss, I made these ATR bands. When you add this indicator to your graph, 6 lines are going to show up, 3 above the price, 3 below it. These lines are calculated from the ATR of the last 20 periods (can be configurated). The upper lines are the high of the last candle + the ATR * the multiplicator factor, the lower lines are the low - ATR * multiplicator factor. There are three multiplicator factors: 1.0, 1.618 and 2.0, and you change them to be whatever you want.
The logic behind it is that theses bands represents the region in which the market is more likely to stay. So if you enter the market at 50.00, you can't expect it to reach 500.00 in the next hour if the ATR is 5.00. And if you set the stop loss at 49.99, it is very likely that the market is going to stop you. By using the ATR bands, you can get a more reasonable price range, so you would set the stop loss at 45.00 and the take profit level at 60.00.
There are two types os ATR you can use: the regular, calculated with RMA, and another using a custom WMA, which puts greater emphasis on large amplitudes. By default, the average uses the past 20 true ranges. You can also choose to use either the closing price or the extremes of the candle as a basis.
Another thing I've added is the violation statistics, which shows the percentages of the times that a band was violated in the next 5 candles (can be configurated). With this, you can get a broader view on the probability of the bands actually being reached.
You may have notice that the bands are lagged by 1 period. I did this so that there is no way you can use future data. You can disable it or increase it, but I recommend just letting it be 1. These bands are the range in which the price is most likely to stay in, if you change the lag you are essentially breaking it's whole purpose.
Combo Backtest 123 Reversal & High Low Bands This is combo strategies for get a cumulative signal.
First strategy
This System was created from the Book "How I Tripled My Money In The
Futures Market" by Ulf Jensen, Page 183. This is reverse type of strategies.
The strategy buys at market, if close price is higher than the previous close
during 2 days and the meaning of 9-days Stochastic Slow Oscillator is lower than 50.
The strategy sells at market, if close price is lower than the previous close price
during 2 days and the meaning of 9-days Stochastic Fast Oscillator is higher than 50.
Second strategy
As the name suggests, High low bands are two bands surrounding the underlying’s
price. These bands are generated from the triangular moving averages calculated
from the underlying’s price. The triangular moving average is, in turn, shifted
up and down by a fixed percentage. The bands, thus formed, are termed as High
low bands. The main theme and concept of High low bands is based upon the triangular
moving average.

Exponential Deviation Bands [ChuckBanger]This is Exponential Deviation Bands. It is a price band indicator based on exponential deviation rather than the more traditional standard deviation, as you find in the well-known Bollinger Bands calculation. As compared to standard deviation bands, exponential deviation bands apply more weight to recent data and generate fewer breakouts. There fore it is a much better tool to identifying trends.
One strategy on the daily can be
Buy next bar if closing price crosses below the lower bands
Sell if price is equal to the current value of the upper bands
VWAP Stdev Bands v2 Modoriginal script by /u/SandroTurriate/ - I just made some small changes.
Vwap + standard deviation bands. Good for reversal trading among other things. Used intraday.
Very useful when price is ranging.
I added the option to fill the spaces between the deviation lines with color and also the option to add some extra bands. That's about it. Color/length/style etc is customizable.
RSI Bands, RSI %B and RSI BandwidthRSI bands provide an intuitive way of visualizing how the price movement causes RSI to move with in its range (0-100). Upper/Lower bands signify overbought and oversold levels respectively (Default: 70/30, you can customize them via options page). These bands closely match what Constance Brown explains in her book "Technical Analysis for the Trading Professional".
I have also coded up 2 scripts to visualize %B and Bandwidth, just as in BollingerBands. As you can see %B is equivalent to the actual RSI. Along with RSI_Bandwidth and %B, the bands convey a lot of information.
Another tip is to render Bollinger Bands along with RSIBands...endless possibilities :)
I have included all 3 scripts in the same chart, as they are all related. Since TradingView doesn't allow sharing more than one script in the same chart, you can only "Add script" RSI Bands.
If you want to use RSI %B and Bandwidth, follow this guide to "Make mine" this chart and get access to the source:

[COG]Adaptive Volatility Bands# Adaptive Volatility Bands (AVB) Indicator Guide for Traders
## Special Acknowledgment 🙌
This script is inspired by and builds upon the foundational work of **DonovanWall**, a respected contributor to the trading community. His innovative approach to adaptive indicators has been instrumental in developing this advanced trading tool.
## What is the Adaptive Volatility Bands Indicator?
The Adaptive Volatility Bands (AVB) is a sophisticated technical analysis tool designed to help traders understand market dynamics by creating dynamic, responsive price channels that adapt to changing market conditions. Unlike traditional static indicators, this script uses advanced mathematical techniques to create flexible bands that adjust to market volatility in real-time.
## Key Features and Inputs
### 1. Price and Filtering Options
- **Price Source**: Determines the base price used for calculations (default is HLC3 - Average of High, Low, and Close)
- **Filter Poles**: Controls the smoothness of the indicator (1-9 poles)
- Lower values: More responsive, more noise
- Higher values: Smoother, but slower to react
### 2. Volatility and Band Settings
- **Sample Length**: Determines how many bars are used to calculate volatility (default 144)
- **Volatility Multiplier**: Adjusts the width of the main bands (default 1.414)
- **Outer Band Multiplier**: Controls the width of the outer bands (default 2.5)
- **Inner Band Ratio**: Positions the inner bands between the center and outer bands (default 0.25)
### 3. Advanced Processing Options
- **Lag Reduction Mode**: Helps reduce indicator delay
- **Fast Response Mode**: Makes the indicator more responsive to recent price changes
### 4. Signal and Visualization Options
- **Show Entry Signals**: Displays buy and sell signals
- **Signal Display Style**: Choose between labels or shapes
- **Range Filter**: Adds an additional filter for signal validation
## How the Indicator Works
The Adaptive Volatility Bands create a dynamic price channel with three key components:
1. **Center Line**: Represents the core trend direction
2. **Inner Bands**: Closer to the center line
3. **Outer Bands**: Wider bands that show broader price potential
### Color Dynamics
- The indicator uses a smart color gradient system
- Colors change based on price position within the bands
- Helps visualize bullish (green/blue) and bearish (red) market conditions
## Trading Strategies for Beginners
### Basic Entry Signals
- **Buy Signal**:
- Price touches the center line from below
- Candle is bullish (closes higher than it opens)
- Price is above the center line
- Trend is upward
- **Sell Signal**:
- Price touches the center line from above
- Candle is bearish (closes lower than it opens)
- Price is below the center line
- Trend is downward
### Risk Management Tips
1. Use the bands to identify:
- Potential trend changes
- Volatility levels
- Support and resistance areas
2. Combine with other indicators for confirmation
3. Always use stop-loss orders
4. Adjust parameters to match your trading style and asset
## When to Use This Indicator
Best suited for:
- Trending markets
- Swing trading
- Identifying potential entry and exit points
- Understanding market volatility
### Recommended Markets
- Stocks
- Forex
- Cryptocurrencies

5. Continuously learn and improve
Happy Trading! 📈🔍
Ultimate Moving Average Bands [CC+RedK]The Ultimate Moving Average Bands were created by me and @RedKTrader and this converts our Ultimate Moving Average into volatility bands that use the same adaptive logic to create the bands. I have enabled everything to be fully adjustable so please let me know if you find a more useful setting than what I have here by default. I'm sure everyone is familiar with volatility bands but generally speaking if a price goes above the volatility bands then this is either a sign of an extremely strong uptrend or a potential reversal point and vice versa. I have included strong buy and sell signals in addition to normal ones so darker colors are strong signals and lighter colors are normal ones. Buy when the lines turn green and sell when they turn red.
Let me know if there are any other scripts you would like to see me publish!
[JR] Multi Bollinger Heat Bands - EMA/Breakout optionsA little, yet hopefully useful update over my previous "Multi Bollinger Heat Bands". For those who like quick visual cue's.
In short: It's your Basic Bollinger Bands, but 3 of them, and some pointy things.
In full:
Three stacked SMA based Bollinger Bands designed just to give you a quick visual on the "heat" of movement.
Set inner band as you would expect, then set your preferred additional multiplier increments for the outer 2 bands.
Option to use EMA as alternative basis, rather than SMA.
Breakout indication shapes, which have their own multiplier (but still tied to same length/period as the BB's) so you can make them pop on their own separate "band".
DEnvelope [Better Bollinger Bands]*** ***
Bollinger Bands (BB) usually expand quickly after a volatility increase but contract more slowly as volatility declines. This extended time it takes for BB to contract after a volatility drop can make trading some instruments using BB alone difficult or less profitable.
In the October 1998 issue of "Futures" there is an article written by Dennis McNicholl called "Better Bollinger Bands", in which the author recommends improving BB by modifying:
- the center line formula &
- different equations for calculating the bands.
These bands, called "DEnvelope", follow price more closely and respond faster to changes in volatility with these modifications.

Bitcoin Logarithmic Regression BandsOverview
This indicator displays logarithmic regression bands for Bitcoin. Logarithmic regression is a statistical method used to model data where growth slows down over time. I initially created these bands in 2019 using a spreadsheet, and later coded them in TradingView in 2021. Over time, the bands proved effective at capturing Bitcoin's bull market peaks and bear market lows. In 2024, I decided to share this indicator because I believe these logarithmic regression bands offer the best fit for the Bitcoin chart.
How It Works
The logarithmic regression lines are fitted to the Bitcoin (BTCUSD) chart using two key factors: the 'a' factor (slope) and the 'b' factor (intercept). The two lines in the upper and lower bands share the same 'a' factor, but I adjust the 'b' factor by 0.2 to more accurately capture the bull market peaks and bear market lows. The formula for logaritmic regression is 10^((a * ln) - b).
How to Use the Logarithmic Regression Bands
1. Lower Band (Support Band):
The two lines in the lower band create a potential support area for Bitcoin’s price. Historically, Bitcoin’s price has always found its lows within this band during past market cycles. When the price is within the lower band, it suggests that Bitcoin is undervalued and could be set for a rebound.
2. Upper Band (Resistance Band):
The two lines in the upper band create a potential resistance area for Bitcoin’s price. Bitcoin has consistently reached its highs in this band during previous market cycles. If the price is within the upper band, it indicates that Bitcoin is overvalued, and a potential price correction may be imminent.
Use Cases
- Price Bottoming:
Bitcoin tends to bottom out at the lower band before entering a prolonged bull market or a period of sideways movement.
- Price Topping:
In reverse, Bitcoin tends to top out at the upper band before entering a bear market phase.
- Profitable Strategy:
Buying at the lower band and selling at the upper band can be a profitable trading strategy, as these bands often indicate key price levels for Bitcoin’s market cycles.
Overbought/Oversold BandsThe basis of this script is my "Hybrid Overbought/Oversold Detector" which uses many different oscillators to confirm overbought/oversold conditions. The main idea is to generate higher and lower bands around the desired moving average using an average of the volatility (ATR) and the standard deviation (StDev), of course by interfering detected overbought/oversold condition.
Simply put, the more the asset become overvalued/undervalued, the tighter the channel would be and every breakout of the bands announces a return back into the channel in near future.
By default, the multiplier of the standard deviation in the indicator settings is set to 2 which means only less than 5% of price actions would appear outside the bands. Also the default multiplier of the ATR is set to 3 which leads to some similar result, but to achieve more strict results setting StDev multiplier to 3 and ATR multiplier to 4 would be useful.
The type of the central moving average could be picked up from 6 different types which are:
- SMA (Simple Moving Average)
- EMA (Exponential Moving Average)
- HMA (Hull Moving Average)
- LSMA (Least Squares Moving Average)
- TMA (Triangular Moving Average)
- MAEMA (My Personalized Momentum Adjusted EMA)
The latter one leads to a useful combination of the channel with the momentum.
Also the script has multi-timeframe features and the user could apply calculations from other time frames to the current chart.
Hope the idea would be helpful!
Kalman Supertrend (High vs Low) Bands Inspired by BackQuant, this script modifies the original Kalman Hull Supertrend by replacing the close price with High and Low sources. This creates clearer trend definition and better trend tracking.
This is one of the best trend indicators that can be used for trend trading or to capture reversals with high clarity.
Key Features:
Kalman High/Low Bands — Smooths market noise while separating bullish and bearish zones.
BB & SS Alerts — Triggered only when the entire candle closes outside both bands, helping filter out false breakouts.
Supertrend (optional) — Can be toggled on/off to monitor potential short-term or early trend shifts.
Customizable Display — Show/hide bands, fills, and live candle coloring for chart clarity.
Reversal Insight:
For 4H and Daily charts, reversal signals appear to be quite accurate when the price retests the trend bands before continuing the move.
How to Use:
BB appears when a candle fully closes above both High/Low Kalman bands — possible bullish breakout.
SS appears when a candle fully closes below both bands — possible bearish breakdown.
Supertrend toggle can confirm shorter-term moves or early reversals.

Historical Volatility Bands [Loxx]Historical Volatility Bands are constructed using:
Average as the middle line.
Upper and lower bands using the Historical Volatility for bands calculation.
What is Historical Volatility?
Historical Volatility (HV) is a statistical measure of the dispersion of returns for a given security or market index over a given period of time. Generally, this measure is calculated by determining the average deviation from the average price of a financial instrument in the given time period. Using standard deviation is the most common, but not the only, way to calculate Historical Volatility.
The higher the Historical Volatility value, the riskier the security. However, that is not necessarily a bad result as risk works both ways - bullish and bearish, i.e: Historical Volatility is not a directional indicator and should not be used as other directional indicators are used. Use to to determine the rising and falling price change volatility.
The color of the middle line, unlike the bands colors, has 3 colors. When colors of the bands are the same, then the middle line has the same color, otherwise it's white.

Fibonacci & Bollinger Bands StrategyTrading System: Fibonacci & Bollinger Bands Strategy
1. Session Timing
Trade only from 1 PM onwards.
Identify the first candle on the 1 PM vertical line to set the market direction.
If it's a bullish candle, look for buy opportunities.
If it's a bearish candle, look for sell opportunities.
2. Fibonacci Retracement as a Measuring Tool
Identify the recent swing high and swing low before the 1 PM session.
Draw Fibonacci retracement levels from low to high (for buys) or high to low (for sells).
Key retracement levels to watch: 0.0%, 50.0%, and 100.0%.
Entries can be placed at 0.0% or 50.0%, aiming for a move toward 100.0% retracement.
3. Bollinger Bands Confirmation
If the Bollinger Bands are above price, expect a downward move (sell).
If the Bollinger Bands are below price, expect an upward move (buy).
Use this as additional confirmation for your Fibonacci-based trade.
4. Entry & Exit Rules
Entry:
If the 1 PM candle confirms a bullish bias, enter long near Fibonacci 0.0% or 50.0%.

VIX Implied Move Bands for ES/Emini futuresThis script uses the close of the VIX on a daily resolution to provide the 'implied move' for the E-mini SP500 futures. While it can be applied to any equity index, it's crucial to know that the VIX is calculated using SPX options, and may not reflect the implied volatility of other indices. The user can adjust the length of the moving average used to calculate the bands, the window of days used to calculate the implied move, and the multiplier that effects the width of the bands.
