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...
BBImpulse is part of the latest indicators package offered by John Bollinger. Excerpt from their market blurb (www.bbforex.com):
"BBImpulse is derived from %b. Its value is the periodic change of %b, so if %b was 0.45 this period and 0.20 last period the present value of BBImpulse is 0.25. We present two reference levels on the chart, an alert level and an...
Fixed a typo in the code where BB multiplier was stuck at 1.5. Thanks @ucsgears for bringing it to my notice.

The FVE is a pure volume indicator. Unlike most of the other indicators
(except OBV), price change doesn?t come into the equation for the FVE
(price is not multiplied by volume), but is only used to determine whether
money is flowing in or out of the stock. This is contrary to the current trend
in the design of modern money flow indicators....
This is another version of FVE indicator that we have posted earlier
in this forum.
This version has an important enhancement to the previous one that`s
especially useful with intraday minute charts.
Due to the volatility had not been taken into account to avoid the extra
complication in the formula, the previous formula has some...
This indicator used to calculate the statistical volatility, sometime
called historical volatility, based on the Extreme Value Method.
Please use this link to get more information about Volatility.
The Volatility function measures the market volatility by plotting a
smoothed average of the True Range. It returns an average of the TrueRange
over a specific number of bars, giving higher weight to the TrueRange of
the most recent bar.
The RVI is a modified form of the relative strength index (RSI).
The original RSI calculation separates one-day net changes into
positive closes and negative closes, then smoothes the data and
normalizes the ratio on a scale of zero to 100 as the basis for the
formula. The RVI uses the same basic formula but substitutes the
10-day...
This is the new-age indicator which is version of RSI calculated upon
the Rate-of-change indicator.
The name "Relative Strength Index" is slightly misleading as the RSI
does not compare the relative strength of two securities, but rather
the internal strength of a single security. A more appropriate name
might be "Internal Strength...
Volatility Quality Index (VQI), by Thomas Stridsman, points out the difference between bad and good volatility in order to identify better trade opportunities in the market.
This plots 3 lines:
- Red line is the VQI (actually, sum of VQI).
- Green line is the 9-period SMA of sum_of_VQI.
- Orange line is the 200-period SMA of sum_of_VQI.
Stridsman suggested to...
This is my custom channel (Bear Channel!? :)) derived from BB/STARC. It uses both ATR/STDEV for plotting the bounds.
I use COG (Center of Gravity) for deriving the baseline. This enables it to track the price action better than many other channels that make use of MAs or simply "close". Indicator also marks "squeezes" (stdev bands come inside ATR bands). Pay...
STARC (Stoller Average Range Channels) bands make use of ATR to form the bands, giving it a more in-depth snapshot of market volatility compared to Bollinger Bands.
When a price curve penetrates a Bollinger Band, it may indicate the continuation of a price move; in contrast, the STARC bands tend to define upper and lower limits for normal price action.
Plots the Opening Range for the First Hour for Stocks and Forex. Option to Plot the first 30 Minutes Opening Range, or Both. See first Post for Specifics.
Indicator allows choosing either MFI or RSI and draws a BB over it to identify oversold / overbought conditions.
Oversold/Overbought breaches are highlighted using different colors for easy identification. Has helped me a lot during sudden pumps to identify the tops, hope you find a use for this.

Simple strategy. You only consider taking a squeeze play when both the upper and lower Bollinger Bands go inside the Keltner Channel. When the Bollinger Bands (BOTH lines) start to come out of the Keltner Channel, the squeeze has been released and a move is about to take place.
