Bollinger Bands + EMA 200 + EMA 50This indicator combines three technical analysis tools: the Bollinger Bands (BB), and two Exponential Moving Averages (EMA) with periods of 200 and 50.
Bollinger Bands (BB): This indicator consists of three lines—the middle line being a simple moving average (SMA), and the upper and lower bands representing two standard deviations above and below the SMA. The width of the bands indicates market volatility, with wider bands signifying higher volatility and narrower bands indicating lower volatility.
Exponential Moving Averages (EMA 200 and EMA 50): The EMA is a type of moving average that gives more weight to recent prices, making it more responsive to price changes than the simple moving average. The EMA 200 is considered a long-term trend indicator, often used to identify the overall direction of the market. The EMA 50 is a medium-term trend indicator, helping to spot more immediate market trends. Crossovers between these two EMAs (such as when EMA 50 crosses above EMA 200) are commonly used as buy or sell signals, with the idea that a short-term trend shift is occurring.
By combining these three indicators, this custom Pine Script aims to give a comprehensive view of the market conditions, helping traders to understand both the volatility (via BB), the long-term market trend (via EMA 200), and the medium-term trend (via EMA 50). The interaction between the price and these indicators, along with crossovers, can be used to identify potential entry and exit points.

Visual Representation: The indicator plots three upper and three lower bands, with color-coded transparency for easy interpretation.
Central SMA Line: The core SMA line provides a baseline for price movement and trend direction.
Shaded Range: The script visually fills the area between the outermost bands to highlight the overall range of price action.
How to Use:
Use the upper bands as potential resistance zones and the lower bands as potential support zones.
Look for price interactions with these levels to identify opportunities for breakout, trend continuation, or reversal trades.
Combine with other indicators or price action analysis to enhance decision-making.
This script is ideal for traders who want a unique blend of Fibonacci-based analysis and Bollinger Bands to better navigate market movements.
Bollinger Bands Enhanced StrategyOverview
The common practice of using Bollinger bands is to use it for building mean reversion or squeeze momentum strategies. In the current script Bollinger Bands Enhanced Strategy we are trying to combine the strengths of both strategies types. It utilizes Bollinger Bands indicator to buy the local dip and activates trailing profit system after reaching the user given number of Average True Ranges (ATR). Also it uses 200 period EMA to filter trades only in the direction of a trend. Strategy can execute only long trades.
Unique Features
Trailing Profit System: Strategy uses user given number of ATR to activate trailing take profit. If price has already reached the trailing profit activation level, scrip will close long trade if price closes below Bollinger Bands middle line.
Configurable Trading Periods: Users can tailor the strategy to specific market windows, adapting to different market conditions.
Major Trend Filter: Strategy utilizes 100 period EMA to take trades only in the direction of a trend.
Flexible Risk Management: Users can choose number of ATR as a stop loss (by default = 1.75) for trades. This is flexible approach because ATR is recalculated on every candle, therefore stop-loss readjusted to the current volatility.
Methodology
First of all, script checks if currently price is above the 200-period exponential moving average EMA. EMA is used to establish the current trend. Script will take long trades on if this filtering system showing us the uptrend. Then the strategy executes the long trade if candle’s low below the lower Bollinger band. To calculate the middle Bollinger line, we use the standard 20-period simple moving average (SMA), lower band is calculated by the substruction from middle line the standard deviation multiplied by user given value (by default = 2).
When long trade executed, script places stop-loss at the price level below the entry price by user defined number of ATR (by default = 1.75). This stop-loss level recalculates at every candle while trade is open according to the current candle ATR value. Also strategy set the trailing profit activation level at the price above the position average price by user given number of ATR (by default = 2.25). It is also recalculated every candle according to ATR value. When price hit this level script plotted the triangle with the label “Strong Uptrend” and start trail the price at the middle Bollinger line. It also started to be plotted as a green line.
When price close below this trailing level script closes the long trade and search for the next trade opportunity.
Risk Management
The strategy employs a combined and flexible approach to risk management:
It allows positions to ride the trend as long as the price continues to move favorably, aiming to capture significant price movements. It features a user-defined ATR stop loss parameter to mitigate risks based on individual risk tolerance. By default, this stop-loss is set to a 1.75*ATR drop from the entry point, but it can be adjusted according to the trader's preferences.
There is no fixed take profit, but strategy allows user to define user the ATR trailing profit activation parameter. By default, this stop-loss is set to a 2.25*ATR growth from the entry point, but it can be adjusted according to the trader's preferences.
Justification of Methodology
This strategy leverages Bollinger bangs indicator to open long trades in the local dips. If price reached the lower band there is a high probability of bounce. Here is an issue: during the strong downtrend price can constantly goes down without any significant correction. That’s why we decided to use 200-period EMA as a trend filter to increase the probability of opening long trades during major uptrend only.
Usually, Bollinger Bands indicator is using for mean reversion or breakout strategies. Both of them have the disadvantages. The mean reversion buys the dip, but closes on the return to some mean value. Therefore, it usually misses the major trend moves. The breakout strategies usually have the issue with too high buy price because to have the breakout confirmation price shall break some price level. Therefore, in such strategies traders need to set the large stop-loss, which decreases potential reward to risk ratio.
In this strategy we are trying to combine the best features of both types of strategies. Script utilizes ate ATR to setup the stop-loss and trailing profit activation levels. ATR takes into account the current volatility. Therefore, when we setup stop-loss with the user-given number of ATR we increase the probability to decrease the number of false stop outs. The trailing profit concept is trying to add the beat feature from breakout strategies and increase probability to stay in trade while uptrend is developing. When price hit the trailing profit activation level, script started to trail the price with middle line if Bollinger bands indicator. Only when candle closes below the middle line script closes the long trade.

Keltner Channels Bands (RMA)Keltner Channel Bands
These normally consist of:
Keltner Channel Upper Band = EMA + Multiplier ∗ ATR
Keltner Channel Lower Band = EMA − Multiplier ∗ ATR
However instead of using ATR we are using RMA
This gives us a much smoother take of the KCB
We are also using 2 sets of bands built on 1 Moving average, this is a common set up for mean reversion strategies.
This can often be paired with RSI for lower timeframe divergences
Divergence
This is using the RSI to calculate when price sets new lows/highs whilst the RSI movement is in the opposite direction.
The way this is calculated is slightly different to traditional divergence scripts. instead of looking for pivot highs/lows in the RSI we are logging the RSI value when price makes it pivot highs/lows.
Gradient Bands
The Gradient Colouring on the bands is measuring how long price has been either side of the MA.
As Keltner bands are commonly used as a mean reversion strategy, I thought it would be useful to see how long price has been trending in a certain direction, the stronger the colours get,
the longer price has been trending that direction which could suggest we are looking for a retrace soon.
Alerts
Alerts included let you choose whether you want to receive an alert for the inside, outside or both band touches.
To set up these alerts, simply toggle them on in the settings, then click on the 3 dots next to the indicators name, from there you click 'Add Alert'.
From there you can customise the alert settings but make sure to leave the 2 top boxes which control the alert conditions. They will be default selected onto your correct settings, the rest you may want to change.
Once you create the alert, it will then trigger as soon as price touches your chosen inside/outside band.

Average as the middle line.
Upper and lower bands using theRoger & Satchell Estimator Historical Volatility Bands for bands calculation.
What is Roger & Satchell Estimator Historical Volatility?
The Rogers–Satchell estimator does not handle opening jumps; therefore, it underestimates the volatility. It accurately explains the volatility portion that can be attributed entirely to a trend in the price evolution. Rogers and Satchell try to embody the frequency of price observations in the model in order to overcome the drawback. They claim that the corrected estimator outperforms the uncorrected one in a study based on simulated data.
RSEHV = sqrt((Z/n) * sum((log(high/close)*log(high/open)) + (log(low/close)*log(low/open))))

Average as the middle line.
Upper and lower bands using the Garman & Klass Estimator Historical Volatility (instead of "regular" Historical Volatility ) for bands calculation.
What is Garman & Klaus Historical Volatility?
Garman Klass is a volatility estimator that incorporates open, low, high, and close prices of a security. The Garman and Klass estimator for estimating historical volatility assumes Brownian motion with zero drift and no opening jumps (i.e. the opening = close of the previous period). This estimator is 7.4 times more efficient than the close-to-close estimator. Garman-Klass volatility extends Parkinson's volatility by taking into account the opening and closing price. As markets are most active during the opening and closing of a trading session, it makes volatility estimation more accurate. Garman and Klass also assumed that the process of price change is a process of continuous diffusion (geometric Brownian motion). However, this assumption has several drawbacks. The method is not robust for opening jumps in price and trend movements. Despite its drawbacks, the Garman-Klass estimator is still more effective than the basic formula since it takes into account not only the price at the beginning and end of the time interval but also intraday price extremums.
The Garman & Klass Estimator is as follows:
GKE = sqrt((Z/n)* sum((0.5*(log(high./low)).^2) - (2*log(2) - 1).*(log(close./open)).^2))
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.

What is Parkinson's Historical Volatility?
The Parkinson's number, or High Low Range Volatility developed by the physicist, Michael Parkinson in 1980, aims to estimate the Volatility of returns for a random walk using the High and Low in any particular period. IVolatility.com calculates daily Parkinson values. Prices are observed on a fixed time interval: n = 10, 20, 30, 60, 90, 120, 150, 180 days.
SH is stock's High price in t day.
SL is stock's Low price in t day.
High/Low Return (xt^HL) is calculated as the natural logarithm of the ratio of a stock's High price to stock's Low price.
Return:
And Parkinson's number: 1 / (4 * math.log(2)) * 252 / n * Σ (n, t =1) {math.log(Ht/Lt)^2}
An important use of the Parkinson's number is the assessment of the distribution prices during the day as well as a better understanding of the market dynamics. Comparing the Parkinson's number and periodically sampled volatility helps traders understand the tendency towards mean reversion in the market as well as the distribution of stop-losses.

Bollinger Bands Breakout Oscillator [LuxAlgo]The Bollinger Bands Breakout Oscillator is an oscillator returning two series quantifying the significance of breakouts between the price and the extremities of the Bollinger Bands indicator.
Settings
Length: Period of the Bollinger Bands indicator
Mult: Controls the width of the Bollinger Bands
Src: Input source of the indicator
Usage
Each series is calculated by summing the distance between price and a respective Bollinger Bands extremity in the case price is outside this extremity and divided by the sum of the absolute distance between price and a respective extremity. This sum is done over the most recent Length bars.
Bullish breakouts are represented by the green areas of the indicator, while bearish breakouts are represented by the red areas of the indicator.
The oscillator can determine the presence of an uptrend when the bullish area is superior to the bearish area, while a downtrend is indicated by a bearish area being superior to the bullish one. The significance of the breakout is determined by the amplitude of each area, with higher amplitudes indicating more significant breakouts or strong trends.
Using higher Mult values would naturally return wider bands, which would induce less frequent breakouts, this would be highlighted by the oscillator.
In the chart above we can see the oscillator using a multiplicative factor of 2.
Ethereum Logarithmic Regression BandsOverview
This indicator displays logarithmic regression bands for Ethereum. Logarithmic regression is a statistical method used to model data where growth slows down over time. I initially created these bands in 2021 using a spreadsheet, and later coded them in TradingView in 2022. Over time, the bands proved effective at capturing bull market peaks and bear market lows. In 2025, I decided to share this indicator because I believe these logarithmic regression bands offer the best fit for the Ethereum chart.
How It Works
The logarithmic regression lines are fitted to the Ethereum (ETHUSD) chart using two key factors: the 'a' factor (slope) and the 'b' factor (intercept). The formula for logarithmic regression is 10^((a * ln) - b).
How to Use the Logarithmic Regression Bands
1. Lower Band:
The lower (blue) band forms a potential support area for Ethereum’s price. Historically, Ethereum has found its lows within this band during past market cycles. When the price is within the lower band, it suggests that Ethereum is undervalued.
2. Upper Band:
The upper (red) band forms a potential resistance area for Ethereum’s price. The logarithmic band is fitted to the past two market cycle peaks; therefore, there is not enough historical data to be sure it will reach the upper band again. However, the chance is certainly there! If the price is within the upper band, it indicates that Ethereum is overvalued and that a potential price correction may be imminent.

⯁ KEY FEATURES & HOW TO USE
Savitzky-Golay Filtered Line (Basis):
Smooths out price noise using the Savitzky-Golay method, offering a more refined trend path than traditional moving averages. This centerline acts as the trend anchor and visually changes color depending on its slope to reflect the active trend direction.
Dynamic Trend Bands (Upper/Lower):
Constructed from the filtered line with a dynamic offset based on recent price volatility (ATR). These bands shift based on price pressure and are locked once price closes beyond them.
Helpful for identifying breakout moments or exhaustion areas where reversals are likely.
Trend Direction Detection:
A directional signal is confirmed when price breaks and closes above the upper band (uptrend) or below the lower band (downtrend).
Provides a clear and systematic way to identify when a trend begins.
Trend Duration Counter (Visual Decay Line):
A fading overlay line shows how long a trend has been active since the last reversal. The longer the trend persists, the more transparent this extension becomes.
This visual fading effect helps traders anticipate potential trend exhaustion and prepare for reversals or take-profit zones.
Reversal Signals (Diamond Markers):
Diamond shapes are plotted at each market shift, allowing users to visually pinpoint when the trend has flipped.
These markers act as decision zones for entry, exit, or stop-loss adjustments based on directional flow changes.
Color-Based Bar and Candle Painting:
Candles are painted green in uptrends and orange in downtrends, providing an intuitive glance at trend state without needing to interpret numbers.
Helps users stay aligned with the trend visually and avoid counter-trend entries.
⯁ CONCLUSION
The Savitzky Flow Bands indicator offers a modernized, visually rich way to track trend shifts using a scientific smoothing method. With dynamic trend envelopes, color-coded cues, and visual markers, it equips traders with a structured framework to follow the market's flow and make data-driven decisions. Ideal for swing traders, momentum strategists, or any trader looking to trade in sync with the prevailing trend.

Average Trend with Deviation Bands v2TL;DR: An average based trend incl. micro trend spotting and multiple display options.
This script is basically an update of my "Average Trend with Deviation Bands" script. I made the following changes:
Not an overlay anymore - The amount of drawn lines makes the chart pretty messy. That's why I moved it to a pane. If you preferred the overlay you can use my "Average Trend with Deviation Bands" script. *This is also the reason why I publish this script instead of updating the existing one.
I added an EMA to represent the price movement instead of candles
I added a signal (SMA) to spot micro trends and early entry/exit signals
I added the option to switch between a "line view" which shows the average trend and deviation bands and an "oscillator view" which shows an oscillator and histogram (MACD style)
General usage:
1. The white line is the average trend (which is an average of the last N bars open, close, high, low price).
2. Bands around the average trend are standard deviations which can be adjusted in the options menu and are only visible in "lines view". Basically they are like the clouds in the Ichimoku Cloud indicator - In big deviation bands the price movement needs more "power" to break through the average trend and vice versa.
3. Indicator line (blue line) - This is the EMA which represents the price. Crossing the average trend from below indicates an uptrend and vice versa (crossing from above indicates a down trend).
4. Signal line (red line) - This is a smoothed version of the indicator line which can be used to predict the movement of the price when crossed by the indicator line (like at MACD and many other indicators).
Oscillator usage:
When switched to "oscillator view" the indicator line oscillates around a zero line which can be seen as the average trend. The usage is basically the same as described above. However there is also the histogram which shows the difference between the indicator and signal. Of course the histogram can be deactivated. Additionally a color filling can be added to easily spot entry/exit signals.
As always: Code is free do whatever you like. If you have any questions/comments/etc. just drop it in the comment section.
Squeeze Range: Bollinger Bands / Keltner Channels [Whvntr]Presenting Squeeze Range: Bollinger Bands / Keltner Channels
TTMSqueeze method is a volatility and momentum indicator introduced by John Carter of Simpler Trading, which capitalizes on the tendency for price to break out strongly after consolidating in a tight trading range.
How did I make this indicator? The Bollinger Bands & Keltner Channels base scripts are from the standard indicators of their class in the Technicals section... I made this indicator first then noticed there were 3 others with a similar concept, but this differs in it's unique features and application of the TTMSqueeze strategy. This indicator plots the True Range of the Keltner Channel (Customizable in 'Bands Style" in the Inputs Menu) the instances the Bollinger Bands are within the range of the Keltner channel (the market just entered a squeeze).
Featuring: customizable Moving Averages
1. Exponential (Default for both BB & KC)
2. Simple
3. RMA (MA used in RSI )
Keltner channels have a multiplier of 2 & 3 on the Chart (3 being the outer).
How do I use this indicator? Once the teal dots are inside the solid red lines this would indicate that TTMperiod of low market volatility (the market is preparing itself for an explosive move up or down). Do some research and study how to use the TTMSqueeze method by John Carter. Disclaimer: not a guarantee of future favorable results.
Volume Weighted Reversal BandsThis is a vwap & vwma hybrid with upper & lower deviation bands that provide excellent price channels and reversal areas. It can be used on lower & higher timeframes, just increase the deviation % for higher timeframes. Try out the 1 minute timeframe with .5% deviation for great scalping levels.
Here is the calculation used for the main line.
(VWMA100 + VWMA500 + VWMA1000 + VWAP) / 4
So it combines 3 VWMAs with the VWAP and divides that number by 4 to give us a moving average. Then we add new levels above and below that moving average to get our channels. The channels are separated by the % deviation you choose in the settings. For tighter bands, lower the percentage deviation and for wider bands, increase the percentage deviation.
The fattest line in the middle is the main moving average and you can expect price to regularly return to this level. The thick lines are the main moving average plus or minus the percentage deviation you have set. There are 10 levels in each direction from the main moving average. The is also a thin short term moving average as well with a custom calculation. It takes 4 different length moving averages that are weighted and 4 more that are volume weighted and divides the total by 8.The lines will be green when price is above the line and red when price is below the line. The thin white line is the VWAP on its own.
These lines will act as dynamic support and resistance so you can scalp them back and forth. These levels work so well because they are volume weighted and the algos hedge their positions back and forth constantly.
For best results, use this indicator on tickers with the highest volume and trading action as the price will stick to these levels better when the big money players are hedging. Some great tickers for this indicator are APPL, SPY, BTC, ETH.
All colors and linewidths can be customized in the settings easily as well as turning off the VWAP or short moving average and adjusting the percentage deviation for the channels.

Bridge Bands ATR (Overlay) ShaneHurst-Adaptive Volatility Bands
A fractal-inspired evolution of Bollinger and Keltner bands that adapts dynamically to both volatility and trend persistence.
This indicator estimates the Hurst exponent (H) — a measure of market memory — and adjusts a standard volatility band to lean in the direction of the prevailing trend.
When H > 0.5, markets exhibit persistence (trending behavior); the bands shift in the trend’s direction.
When H < 0.5, markets are mean-reverting; the bands flatten and recent extremes become potential fade zones.
Band width scales with recent volatility (σ), expanding in turbulent conditions and contracting during calm periods.
Key Features:
Adaptive offset using the Hurst exponent
Volatility-sensitive width for dynamic market regimes
EMA baseline with directional bias
Clear visual separation between trending and choppy phases
Inspired by Benoit Mandelbrot’s The Misbehavior of Markets and H.E. Hurst’s original work on long-term memory in time series.
Use it to identify regime shifts, trend-following entries, and volatility-adjusted stop levels.
Credit for this script goes to a number of people including Steve B, MichaalAngle, doc and joecat808. 500 day DEMA (double EMA) can be used as a longer term momentum line.

Jose's Rolling VWAP with BandsRolling VWAP with Customizable Deviation Bands
This indicator plots a rolling Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) over a user-defined lookback period, rather than resetting each day or from a fixed anchor point. The rolling calculation makes it act more like a moving average — but weighted by volume — providing a smoother, more adaptive central price line.
It also includes up to three optional deviation bands, which can be independently toggled on/off and assigned their own multipliers. These bands are calculated using the chosen lookback’s standard deviation, giving traders a quick visual of price dispersion around VWAP.
Features:
Adjustable rolling VWAP lookback length
Up to 3 customizable standard deviation bands
Individual checkboxes for enabling/disabling each band
Independent multiplier control for each band
Works on any timeframe and symbol
Uses:
Identify overextended price moves relative to VWAP
Spot dynamic support/resistance zones
Gauge mean reversion opportunities
Confirm trend strength when price hugs or breaks away from VWAP
AI Breakout Bands (Zeiierman)█ Overview
AI Breakout Bands (Zeiierman) is an adaptive trend and breakout detection system that combines Kalman filtering with advanced K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN) smoothing. The result is a smart, self-adjusting band structure that adapts to dynamic market behavior, identifying breakout conditions with precision and visual clarity.
At its core, this indicator estimates price behavior using a two-dimensional Kalman filter (position + velocity), then enhances the smoothing process with a nonlinear, similarity-based KNN filter. This unique blend enables it to handle noisy markets and directional shifts with both speed and stability — providing breakout traders and trend followers a reliable framework to act on.
Whether you're identifying volatility expansions, capturing trend continuations, or spotting early breakout conditions, AI Breakout Bands gives you a mathematically grounded, visually adaptive roadmap of real-time market structure.
█ How It Works
⚪ Kalman Filter Engine
The Kalman filter models price movement as a state system with two components:
Position (price)
Velocity (trend direction)
It recursively updates predictions using real-time price as a noisy observation, balancing responsiveness with smoothness.
Process Noise (Position) controls sensitivity to sudden moves.
Process Noise (Velocity) controls smoothing of directional flow.
Measurement Noise (R) defines how much the filter "trusts" live price data.
This component alone creates a responsive yet stable estimate of the market’s center of gravity.
⚪ Advanced K-Neighbor Smoothing
After the Kalman estimate is computed, the script applies a custom K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN) smoother.
Rather than averaging raw values, this method:
Finds K most similar past Kalman values
Weighs them by similarity (inverse of absolute distance)
Produces a smoother that emphasizes structural similarity
This nonlinear approach gives the indicator an AI feature — reacting fast when needed, yet staying calm in consolidation.
█ How to Use
⚪ Trend Recognition
The line color shifts dynamically based on slope direction and breakout confirmation.
Bullish conditions: price above the mid band with positive slope
Bearish conditions: price below the mid band with negative slope
⚪ Breakout Signals
Price breaking above or below the bands may signal momentum acceleration.
Combine with your own volume or momentum confirmation for stronger entries.
Bands adapt to market noise, helping filter out low-quality whipsaws.
█ Settings

Quadratic Weighted Bands"Quadratic Weighted Bands" (QWB) is designed to identify and visualize market trends and volatility using quadratic weighted filtering techniques. It works by applying quadratic weighting to a selected data source over a specified length, enhancing the sensitivity and responsiveness of the indicator to recent market movements. A major advantage of this indicator is the ability to have a longer lookback period without having too much lag. This results in a smoother output that is still very responsive. Its about twice as fast as a normal average so adjust accordingly.
The indicator is customizable, allowing users to select between the normal Quadratic Weighting (QWF) and Volume Quadratic Weighting (VQWF), choose their data source, adjust the lookback period, and modify the deviation multiplier to fit their analysis needs. Additionally, users can customize the colors of the bands and center line.
The color of the central line changes based on the direction of the trend, as well as having a neutral (ranging) color. This visual aspect makes it easier for traders to quickly see the strength and direction of the market.
Style Select: Choose between "Normal Quadratic Weighting" or "Volume Quadratic Weighting" to adapt the indicator based on volume data or standard price data.
Source: This allows for the selection of the input source for the indicator, such as HL2, ensuring the analysis is aligned with specific trading preferences.
Length: Define the lookback period for the average, with the system automatically utilizing the maximum available length if the specified range exceeds available data, ensuring it always works.
Deviation Length: Optionally adjust the lookback period for calculating deviation, enhancing the indicator's sensitivity and accuracy in identifying market volatility.
Multiplier: Fine tune the deviation multiplier to control the width of the bands, allowing traders to adjust for market volatility and personal risk tolerance.
Top Color: Customize the color of the top band, which also affects the center line's appearance. Adjusting the brightness provides visual clarity and personalization.
Bottom Color: Similarly, select the color for the bottom band, which also influences the center line. The option to adjust brightness ensures the indicator's readability and aesthetic preference.
Neutral Color: Designate a color for indicating a ranging market.

Bandwidth Bands - Silverman's rule of thumbWhat are Bandwidth Bands?
This indicator uses Silverman Rule of Thumb Bandwidth to estimate the width of bands around the rolling moving average which takes in the log transformation of price to remove most of price skewness for the rest of the volatility calculations and then a exp() function is performed to convert it back to a right skewed distribution. These bandwidths bands could offer insights into price volatility and trading extremes.
Silverman rule of thumb bandwidth:
The Silverman Rule of Thumb Bandwidth is a heuristic method used to estimate the optimal bandwidth for kernel density estimation, a statistical technique for estimating the probability density function of a random variable. In the context of financial analysis, such as in this indicator, it helps determine the width of bands around a moving average, providing insights into the level of volatility in the market. This method is particularly useful because it offers a quick and straightforward way to estimate bandwidth without requiring extensive computational resources or complex mathematical calculation
The bandwidth estimator automatically adjust to the characteristics of the data, providing a flexible and dynamic measure of dispersion that can capture variations in volatility over time. Standard deviations alone may not be as adaptive to changes in data distributions. The Bandwidth considers the overall shape and structure of the data distribution rather than just focusing on the spread of data points.

Multi Time Frame Composite BandsMulti Time Frame Composite Bands utilizes Fibonacci numbers (5, 8, 13, 21, 34) as period lengths for calculations. The indicator calculates a composite high line (C_high) by averaging the highest prices over Fibonacci periods, incorporating moving averages (SMA) of high prices for added refinement and smoothing. Similarly, a composite low line (C_low) is calculated by averaging the lowest prices with moving averages of low prices. The midline, obtained from the mean of C_high and C_low.
This band can function as volatility bands unlike traditional volatility indicators like Bollinger Bands , ATR bands it does not use traditional measures of volatility such standard deviation , ATR. This hugs closely to the price and during trending markets the some part of the candles stay outside the band and when the entire candle digress outside the band a price correction or reversal can be anticipated. This can be considered as a smoothed Donchian channel.
