❓ FAQ — Choosing the best setup
Q: Which strategy should I use for which chart?
* *Prev Day Breakouts*: Best on indices, FX, and liquid futures with strong daily levels.
* *Bollinger*: Works well in range-bound environments, or crypto pairs with volatility compression.
* *Volume*: Good on equities where breakout strength is tied to volume spikes.
* *ATR Stop*: Suits volatile instruments (commodities, crypto).
* *EMA Trend*: Useful in trending markets (stocks, indices).
* *RSI Confirm*: Adds momentum filter, better for swing trades.
* *Candle Confirm*: Ideal for scalpers needing visual confirmation.
* *Time Filter*: For intraday traders who want signals only in high-liquidity sessions.
Q: What timeframe should I use?
* Intraday traders → 5m to 15m (Time Filter, Candle Confirm).
* Swing traders → 1H to 4H (EMA Trend, RSI Confirm, ATR Stop).
* Position traders → Daily (Prev Day, Bollinger).
* Breakout
A trade entry condition triggered when price crosses above a resistance level (for longs) or below a support level (for shorts).
* Prev Day High/Low
Formula:
Prev High = High of (Day )
Prev Low = Low of (Day )
* Bollinger Bands
Formula:
Basis = SMA(Close, Length)
Upper Band = Basis + (Multiplier × StdDev(Close, Length))
Lower Band = Basis – (Multiplier × StdDev(Close, Length))
* Volume Confirmation
A breakout is only valid if:
Volume > SMA(Volume, Length)

Measures volatility.
Formula:
ATR = SMA(True Range, Length)
where True Range = max(High–Low, |High–Close |, |Low–Close |)
* EMA (Exponential Moving Average)
Weighted moving average giving more weight to recent prices.
Formula:
EMA = (Price × α) + (EMA × (1–α))
with α = 2 / (Length + 1)
* RSI (Relative Strength Index)
Momentum oscillator scaled 0–100.
Formula:
RSI = 100 – (100 / (1 + RS))
where RS = Avg(Gain, Length) ÷ Avg(Loss, Length)
* Candle Confirmation
Bullish candle: Close > Open AND Close > Close
Bearish candle: Close < Open AND Close < Close
Win Rate (%)
Formula:
Win Rate = (Winning Trades ÷ Total Trades) × 100
* Average Trade P&L
Formula:
Avg Trade = Net Profit ÷ Total Trades
📊 Performance Notes
The Universal Breakout Strategy is designed as a framework rather than a single-asset optimized system. Results will vary depending on the chart, timeframe, and asset chosen.
On the current defaults (15-minute, INR-denominated example), the backtest produced 132 trades over the selected period. This provides a statistically sufficient sample size.
Win rate (~35%) is relatively low, but this is balanced by a positive reward-to-risk ratio (~1.8). In practice, a lower win rate with larger wins versus smaller losses is sustainable.
The average P&L per trade is close to breakeven under default settings. This is expected, as the strategy is not tuned for a single symbol but offered as a universal breakout framework.
Commissions (0.1%) and slippage (1 tick) are included in the simulation, ensuring realistic conditions.
Risk management is conservative, with order sizing set at 1 unit per trade. This avoids over-leveraging and keeps exposure well under the 5-10% equity risk guideline.
👉 Traders are encouraged to:
Experiment with inputs such as ATR period, breakout length, or Bollinger parameters.
Test across different timeframes and instruments (equities, futures, forex, crypto) to find optimal setups.
Combine with filters (trend direction, volatility regimes, or volume conditions) for further refinement.
⚠️ Disclaimer This script is provided for educational purposes only.
Past performance does not guarantee future results.
Trading involves risk, and users should exercise caution and use proper risk management when applying this strategy.
Bollinger Bands (BB)
BBKC Combined Channels OverlayBBKC 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.
Bollinger Keltner Squeeze Indicator (BBKC)Bollinger Keltner Squeeze Indicator (BBKC)This single-pane indicator combines the power of Bollinger Bands (BB) and Keltner Channels (KC) to accurately identify periods of low volatility compression—the famous Squeeze—which often precedes large, directional moves.Designed for traders utilizing Accumulation, Manipulation, Distribution (AMD) strategies, this tool makes spotting the 'Accumulation' phase simple and visually clear, perfect for high BTC Beta equities or futures markets like MES and MNQ.Key Features:Clear Squeeze Visualization:The background of the main chart is shaded Orange when the Squeeze is active (BB is inside KC). This immediately highlights periods of extreme compression.A simple Red/Green Dot below the chart confirms the Squeeze state (Red = Squeeze ON, Green = Squeeze OFF).Momentum Histogram:A built-in momentum oscillator smooths price action and guides the anticipated direction of the breakout.Teal/Orange Bars: Indicate momentum direction while the Squeeze is active (building pressure).Bright Green/Red Bars: Indicate momentum direction after the Squeeze has broken (expansion/breakout).How to Find Maximum Volatility Compression (The "Tightest" Squeeze)To align this indicator with a strategy focused on catching only the most extreme volatility compression—the key to those explosive moves—traders should adjust the Keltner Channel Multiplier setting.Setting Name: KC Multiplier (ATR)Default Value: 1.5Recommended Adjustment: To filter for only the absolute tightest squeezes (where price is least volatile), decrease this multiplier value, typically down to 1.25 or even 1.0.By lowering the KC Multiplier (ATR), you narrow the Keltner Channel boundaries. This requires the Bollinger Bands to compress even further to fit inside, ensuring the indicator only signals the Squeeze state during moments of truly minimal volatility, setting you up for maximum opportunity.
Bollinger Bands with 4 Moving AveragesCombines Bollinger Bands (BB) with up to four optional Moving Averages (MA) to read volatility, trend direction, and dynamic support–resistance in one overlay.
How It Works
BB: basis = MA(length, type) with standard deviation mult. upper = basis + dev, lower = basis − dev.
MA1–MA4: additional averages you can toggle (default only MA4/200 enabled).
Key Features
Flexible basis MA type for BB: SMA / EMA / RMA (Wilder) / WMA / VWMA.
Four optional MAs with independent length, color, and width (defaults: 7, 25, 99, 200; only 200 on by default).
Offset to shift BB for visual testing.
Overlay on price with shaded band between Upper–Lower.
Inputs & Defaults
BB Length = 20, StdDev = 2.0, Source = close.
Basis MA Type = SMA.
MA4 active (200), MA1–MA3 off (7/25/99 ready).
Offset = 0.
Practical Use
Use BB for volatility context: squeeze → potential breakout; expansion → strong trend.
Treat Basis / Upper / Lower as dynamic levels:
Pullbacks to Basis often become decision zones in trends.
Upper/Lower touches = relative extremes.
Add MA4(200) for primary bias; enable MA1–MA3 for finer timing.
Typical behavior:
Price > MA200 and rising basis → bullish bias; watch pullbacks to basis/MA25-like zones.
Price < MA200 and falling basis → bearish bias; watch rejections at basis/MAs.
Common Signals (not financial advice)
Breakout + BB expansion confirms momentum.
Squeeze + basis break can preface volatility expansion.
Confluence: Lower touch + fast MA in uptrends → mean-reversion setups; inverse for downtrends.
Notes
MA1–MA4 are SMA in the code; BB basis follows the selected MA type.
Test across timeframes; tune length and mult to the asset.

BB Crosses Optimized - [JTCAPITAL]BB Crosses Optimized - is a modified way to use Bollinger Bands combined with volatility filtering (ATR) and flexible smoothing methods for Trend-Following.
The indicator works by calculating in the following steps:
Source Selection & Smoothing
The script begins by letting the user select a preferred price source (default is Close, but options include Open, High, Low, HL2, etc.). This raw input is then passed through a smoothing process.
Multiple smoothing techniques can be chosen: SMA, EMA, HMA, DEMA, TEMA, RMA, and FRAMA. Each method reduces short-term noise differently, ensuring flexibility for traders who prefer faster or slower reaction speeds in trend detection.
Bollinger Band Construction
Once the smoothed source is prepared, Bollinger Bands are calculated. The middle band is a moving average of the smoothed data over the defined BB Period . The upper and lower bands are then generated by adding and subtracting the Standard Deviation × Deviation multiplier . These dynamic bands capture volatility and help define breakout zones.
ATR Volatility Measurement
Parallel to the band calculation, the Average True Range (ATR) is computed over the chosen ATR Period . This measures market volatility. The ATR can optionally act as a filter, refining buy and sell levels so signals adapt to current market conditions rather than being fixed to price alone.
Bollinger Band Signals
-If the smoothed price closes above the upper band, a potential bullish event is marked.
-If the smoothed price closes below the lower band, a potential bearish event is marked.
Trend Line Construction
When a bullish event occurs, the script anchors a trend-following line beneath price. If ATR filtering is enabled, the line is set at Low – ATR , otherwise at the simple Low. Conversely, when a bearish event occurs, the line is anchored above price at High + ATR (or just High without the filter). The line is designed to only move in the direction of the trend—if price action does not exceed the prior value, the previous level is held. This prevents unnecessary whipsaws and keeps the indicator aligned with dominant momentum.
Final Trend Detection
The slope of the trend line defines the trend itself:
-Rising line → bullish trend.
-Falling line → bearish trend.
Visual Output
The indicator plots the trend line with dynamic coloring: Blue for bullish phases, Purple for bearish phases. A subtle filled background area emphasizes the active trend zone for clearer chart interpretation.
Buy and Sell Conditions:
- Buy Signal : Triggered when smoothed price closes above the upper Bollinger Band. Trend line then anchors below price (with or without ATR offset depending on settings).
- Sell Signal : Triggered when smoothed price closes below the lower Bollinger Band. Trend line then anchors above price (with or without ATR offset).
Additional filtering is possible via:
- ATR Toggle : Switch ATR on or off to adapt the strategy to either volatile or steady markets.
- Smoothing Method : Adjust smoothing to speed up or slow down responsiveness.
- Deviation Multiplier : Tight or wide bands adjust the sensitivity of signals.
Features and Parameters:
- Source : Choose between Close, Open, High, Low, HL2, etc.
- Average Type : Options include SMA, EMA, HMA, DEMA, TEMA, RMA, FRAMA.
- ATR Period : Defines how ATR volatility is measured.
- BB Period : Lookback length for Bollinger Band construction.
- Deviation : Multiplier for the standard deviation in Bollinger Bands.
- Smoothing Period : Controls how much the source data is smoothed.
- ATR Filter On/Off : Enables or disables ATR integration in signal calculation.
Specifications:
Smoothing (MA Types)
Smoothing is essential to reduce chart noise. By offering multiple MA choices, traders can balance between lag (SMA, RMA) and responsiveness (EMA, HMA, FRAMA). This flexibility allows the indicator to adapt across asset classes and trading styles.
Bollinger Bands
Bollinger Bands measure price deviation around a moving average. They help identify volatility expansion and contraction. In this script, the bands serve as breakout triggers—price crossing outside suggests momentum strong enough to sustain a trend.
Standard Deviation
Standard Deviation is a statistical measure that quantifies the dispersion of price data around the mean. With a multiplier applied, it creates bands that contain a probabilistic portion of price action. Crossing beyond these suggests a higher likelihood of trend continuation.
ATR (Average True Range)
ATR measures the degree of volatility. Instead of simply reacting to price crossing the bands, ATR ensures the trend line placement adapts to current conditions. In volatile markets, wider buffers prevent premature signals; in calmer markets, tighter placement keeps signals responsive.
Trend Line Logic
The trend line only adjusts in the direction of the trend. If new values do not exceed the prior, the line remains unchanged. This prevents false reversals and makes the line a reliable visual confirmation of trend direction.
Signal Detection
The indicator does not repaint: signals are based on confirmed closes relative to the Bollinger Bands. This makes it more reliable for both live trading and backtesting scenarios.
Visual Enhancements
The use of dual plots and fill shading creates a clearer separation of bullish vs. bearish phases. This helps traders visually align entries and exits without second-guessing.

Bollinger Bands Difference Score
Bollinger Bands Difference Score (TradingView – Pine Script v6)
The **Bollinger Bands Difference Score** is a volatility-based scoring system designed to help traders quickly assess whether a stock is in a **strong trend, neutral zone, or weak setup**. It transforms the raw **Bollinger Band Width (BB-Diff)** into a **normalized score (0–100)** and classifies conditions with intuitive thresholds.
---
### 🔹 What is Bollinger Bands Difference (BB-Diff)?
* **Bollinger Bands** are built from a moving average with upper and lower bands set by standard deviations.
* The **difference (or width)** between the bands reflects market volatility.
* A **high difference** = wide bands = strong volatility (breakout/trend).
* A **low difference** = narrow bands = low volatility (consolidation).
This indicator standardizes BB-Diff into a score and smooths it for cleaner signals.
---
### 🔹 Key Features
1. **BB-Diff Scoring System**
* Converts Bollinger Band width into a **0–100 normalized score**.
* Higher score → higher volatility/trend strength.
* Lower score → consolidation or weaker momentum.
2. **Signal Levels**
* **Strong Zone (≥ 70):** Indicates strong trend strength or expansion in volatility.
* **Neutral Zone (40–70):** Sideways or undecided price action.
* **Weak Zone (≤ 20):** Suggests very low volatility, potential upcoming squeeze.
3. **Score Smoothing**
* Applies a moving average to reduce noise.
* Helps avoid false signals during choppy markets.
4. **Visual Enhancements**
* Plots the score as a line (0–100 scale).
* Adds horizontal reference lines for **Strong**, **Neutral**, and **Weak** levels.
* Background colors automatically highlight **bullish strength (green)** or **weakness (red)**.
---
### 🔹 How to Use
* **Trend Confirmation:**
Look for scores **above 70** → suggests trend continuation or volatility breakout.
* **Consolidation Watch:**
Scores in the **20 or below** zone may precede volatility squeezes → breakout setups.
* **Neutral Zone:**
Scores between **40–70** suggest sideways price action; avoid aggressive trades.
* **Combine with Price Action:**
Use with support/resistance, candlestick patterns, or momentum indicators for confirmation.
---
### 🔹 Best Practices
* Great as a **volatility filter** before entries.
* Use in combination with **RSI, MACD, or OBV** for directional bias.
* Works well for **breakout trading** (when score rises from low levels).
* Monitor on multiple timeframes for alignment.
---
✅ **In summary:** The **Bollinger Bands Difference Score** is a simple yet powerful tool that quantifies volatility strength into an actionable score, making it easier to spot strong trends, consolidation phases, and potential breakout opportunities.
Outside the Bollinger Bands Alerting Indicator Overview
The Outside the Bollinger Bands Alerting Indicator is a comprehensive technical analysis tool that combines multiple proven
indicators into a single, powerful system designed to identify high-probability reversal patterns at Bollinger Band extremes. This
indicator goes beyond simple band touches to detect sophisticated pattern formations that often signal strong directional moves.
Key Features & Capabilities
🎯 Advanced Pattern Recognition
Bollinger Band Breakout Patterns
- Detects "pierce-and-reject" formations where price breaks through a Bollinger Band but immediately reverses back inside
- Identifies failed breakouts that often lead to strong moves in the opposite direction
- Combines multiple confirmation signals: engulfing candle patterns, MACD momentum, and ATR volatility filters
- Visual alerts with symbols positioned below (bullish) or above (bearish) candles
Tweezer Top & Bottom Patterns

BB TrendSyncBB TrendSync - Advanced Dual-Band Momentum Deviation System
Core Innovation and Originality
This indicator transforms traditional Bollinger Band analysis through three key innovations that distinguish it from standard implementations:
1. Dual-Band Percentage Oscillator Architecture: Unlike conventional Bollinger Bands that display price levels, this system converts dual Bollinger Band calculations into percentage-based oscillators. The first system uses extended lookback periods (40-period base with 65-period standard deviation) for macro trend detection, while the second employs rapid response parameters (8-period base with 66-period standard deviation) for micro momentum capture. Each system independently calculates where price sits within its band range as a percentage from 0-100.
2. Momentum Deviation Enhancement: The breakthrough innovation applies standard deviation analysis to the percentage oscillator readings themselves. Rather than analyzing price volatility, this technique measures the volatility of the oscillator's position within its range over a specified period (typically 25 periods with 0.8 multiplier). This creates dynamic "bands around the bands" that adapt to changing market momentum characteristics.
3. Multi-Modal Signal Synthesis: The system provides five distinct methods for combining dual-band signals, from simple arithmetic averaging to consensus requirements where both systems must agree. The "Average" mode specifically utilizes momentum deviation crossovers rather than basic threshold crossovers, creating refined entry timing.
Mathematical Framework
Percentage Conversion Formula:
The core calculation transforms standard Bollinger Band readings into normalized percentages using the formula:
BB_Percent = 100 * (Source - Lower_Band) / (Upper_Band - Lower_Band)
Momentum Deviation Calculation:
The system then calculates the standard deviation of these percentage readings:
MD_StdDev = StandardDeviation(BB_Percent, MD_Length)
Upper_MD_Band = BB_Percent + (MD_Multiplier * MD_StdDev)
Lower_MD_Band = BB_Percent - (MD_Multiplier * MD_StdDev)
Signal Generation Logic:
Primary signals occur when momentum deviation bands cross predetermined thresholds, providing earlier and more reliable entry points than standard Bollinger Band touches. The system tracks band states dynamically, changing visual indicators when momentum shifts are detected.
Value Proposition for Closed-Source Distribution
This indicator justifies TOP ELITE access through several proprietary elements:
Algorithmic Sophistication: The momentum deviation methodology represents original research into oscillator volatility analysis. While Bollinger Bands are public domain, applying volatility analysis to the percentage oscillator itself is a novel approach that required extensive backtesting and optimization.
Advanced Signal Processing: The five-mode signal combination system with momentum deviation integration provides significantly more nuanced analysis than standard Bollinger Band implementations. The state tracking and visual feedback systems offer professional-grade market analysis tools.
Comprehensive Analytics Engine: The integrated performance measurement system calculates advanced metrics including Sortino ratio, Calmar ratio, and Kelly Criterion position sizing guidance in real-time, providing institutional-quality analytics typically found in expensive trading platforms.
Professional Visualization Framework: The dynamic color-coding system, gradient oscillator bars, and state-aware visual elements provide immediate market sentiment feedback that goes far beyond basic indicator plotting.
Technical Implementation Details
Dual-System Parameters:
System 1 (Macro): 40-period SMA base, 65-period standard deviation calculation, 1.0 multiplier
System 2 (Micro): 8-period SMA base, 66-period standard deviation calculation, 1.9 multiplier
Momentum Deviation Settings:
Standard deviation length: 25 periods (optimized for detecting momentum shifts)
Multiplier: 0.8 (calibrated to reduce false signals while maintaining sensitivity)
Threshold Configuration:
Long threshold: 62% (upper momentum zone entry)
Short threshold: 60% (lower momentum zone entry)
Close thresholds create tight range for precision timing
Signal Modes Explained:
BB1 Only: Uses macro system exclusively for trend-following signals
BB2 Only: Uses micro system exclusively for momentum scalping
Average: Employs momentum deviation crossovers of averaged systems
Both Required: Demands agreement from both systems before signaling
Either One: Triggers when any system generates signals
Performance Metrics Explained
Core Performance Metrics:
Net Profit: Total percentage return from strategy implementation, showing bottom-line effectiveness of the signal generation system.
Win Rate: Percentage of profitable trades, indicating signal accuracy. Combined with profit factor analysis to ensure statistical reliability.
Total Trades: Number of completed round-trip trades for statistical significance assessment.
Current P&L: Real-time profit/loss percentage of active positions with continuous updates.
Risk Assessment Metrics:
Max Drawdown: Largest peak-to-trough equity decline, crucial for risk management and position sizing decisions.
Calmar Ratio: Annualized return divided by maximum drawdown, providing risk-adjusted performance measurement.
Advanced Risk Metrics:
Sharpe Ratio: Excess return per unit of total volatility, industry standard for risk-adjusted performance comparison.
Sortino Ratio: Similar to Sharpe but focuses on downside deviation only, providing more realistic risk assessment.
Kelly Criterion (Half): Optimal position sizing calculation based on win probability and average win/loss ratios, using conservative half-Kelly approach.
Real-Time Status:
Position: Current market exposure (Long/Short/Cash)
MD State: Momentum deviation status (Bullish/Bearish/Neutral)
Practical Application
Setup Recommendations:
Use "Average" mode for balanced signal generation combining both timeframe perspectives
Monitor momentum deviation band colors for trend confirmation
Observe gradient oscillator position for market sentiment assessment
Utilize performance metrics for strategy optimization and risk management
Adjust thresholds based on market volatility characteristics
Market Applicability:
The system functions across all timeframes and instruments, with particular effectiveness in trending markets where momentum persistence provides statistical edge. The dual-band approach captures both short-term momentum shifts and longer-term trend developments.

Penguin Volatility State StrategyThe Penguin Volatility State Strategy is a comprehensive technical analysis framework designed to identify the underlying "state" or "regime" of the market. Instead of just providing simple buy or sell signals, its primary goal is to classify the market into one of four distinct states by combining trend, momentum, and volatility analysis.
The core idea is to trade only when these three elements align, focusing on periods of volatility expansion (a "squeeze breakout") that occur in the direction of a confirmed trend and are supported by strong momentum.
Key Components
The strategy is built upon two main engines
The Volatility Engine (Bollinger Bands vs. Keltner Channels)
This engine detects periods of rapidly increasing volatility. It measures the percentage difference (diff) between the upper bands of Bollinger Bands (which are based on standard deviation) and Keltner Channels (based on Average True Range). During a volatility "squeeze," both bands are close. When price breaks out, the Bollinger Band expands much faster than the Keltner Channel, causing the diff value to become positive. A positive diff signals a volatility breakout, which is the moment the strategy becomes active.
The Trend & Momentum Engine (Multi-EMA System)
This engine determines the market's direction and strength. It uses:
A Fast EMA (e.g., 12-period) and a Slow EMA (e.g., 26-period): The crossover of these two moving averages defines the primary, underlying trend (similar to a MACD).
An Ultra-Fast EMA (e.g., 2-period of ohlc4): This is used to measure the immediate, short-term momentum of the price.
The Four Market States
By combining the Trend and Momentum engines, the strategy categorizes the market into four visually distinct states, represented by the chart's background color. This is the most crucial aspect of the system.
💚 Green State: Strong Bullish
The primary trend is UP (Fast EMA > Slow EMA) AND the immediate momentum is STRONG (Price > Fast EMA).
Interpretation: This represents a healthy, robust uptrend where both the underlying trend and short-term price action are aligned. It is considered the safest condition for taking long positions.
❤️ Red State: Strong Bearish
Condition: The primary trend is DOWN (Fast EMA < Slow EMA) AND the immediate momentum is WEAK (Price < Fast EMA).
Interpretation: This represents a strong, confirmed downtrend. It is considered the safest condition for taking short positions.
💛 Yellow State: Weakening Bullish / Pullback
Condition: The primary trend is UP (Fast EMA > Slow EMA) BUT the immediate momentum is WEAK (Price < Fast EMA).
Interpretation: This is a critical warning signal for bulls. While the larger trend is still up, the short-term price action is showing weakness. This could be a minor pullback, a period of consolidation, or the very beginning of a trend reversal. Caution is advised.
💙 Blue State: Weakening Bearish / Relief Rally
Condition: The primary trend is DOWN (Fast EMA < Slow EMA) BUT the immediate momentum is STRONG (Price > Fast EMA).
Interpretation: This signals that a downtrend is losing steam. It often represents a short-covering rally (a "bear market rally") or the first potential sign of a market bottom. Bears should be cautious and consider taking profits.
How the Strategy Functions
The strategy uses these four states as its foundation for making trading decisions. The entry and exit arrows (Long, Short, Close) are generated based on a set of rules that can be customized by the user. For instance, a trader can configure the strategy to
Only take long trades during the Green State.
Require a confirmed volatility breakout (diff > 0) before entering a trade.
Use the "RSI on Diff" indicator to ensure that the breakout is supported by accelerating momentum.
Summary
In essence, the Penguin Volatility State Strategy provides a powerful "dashboard" for viewing the market. It moves beyond simple indicators to offer a contextual understanding of price action. By waiting for the alignment of Trend (the State), Volatility (the Breakout), and Momentum (the Acceleration), it helps traders to identify higher-probability setups and, just as importantly, to know when it is better to stay out of the market.

Crypto Breakout Buy/Sell Sequence
⚙️ Components & Sequence Multiple Timeframe (What It Does)
1. Bollinger Bands – Form the foundation by measuring volatility and creating the dynamic range where squeezes and breakouts occur.
2. Squeeze Dots – Show when price compresses inside the bands, signaling reduced volatility before expansion.
3. Breakout Event (Brk Dot) – Fires when price expands beyond the squeeze zone, confirming volatility expansion. (This paints Intra, before candle close)
4. Buy Signal – Confirms entry after a breakout is validated. (This paints at candle close)
5. Pump Signal – Flags sudden surges that extend sharply from the bands, often linked to strong inflows.
6. Momentum Stream – Tracks the strength of movement following the breakout, from continuation (🟢) to slowing (🟡) to exhaustion (🔴). (Resets at Pump Signal)
7. Overbought Indicator – Confirms when momentum has reached overheated conditions, often aligning with band extremes.
8. Sell Signal – Prints when exhaustion/reversal conditions are met, closing the trade cycle.
The Crypto Breakout Buy/Sell Sequence is a no-repaint event indicator that maps a full trade cycle using Bollinger-band-based volatility states: Bollinger Bands → Squeeze → Breakout → Buy → Pump → Momentum → Top Test → Overbought → Sell. Each stage is rule-based and designed to be read on standard candlesticks.
How It Works (System Logic)
Volatility framework: Bollinger Bands define dynamic range and compression/expansion.
Initiation: Squeeze → Breakout confirms expansion; Buy validates participation after expansion begins.
Management: Pump highlights unusual acceleration; Momentum stream tracks continuation → slowing → exhaustion.
Exhaustion/Exit: Top Testing + Overbought build the exhaustion case; Sell marks the sequence end.
How To Use (Quick Guide)
Wait for Squeeze → Breakout → Buy to establish a structured start.
Manage with Momentum:
🟢 continuation, 🟡 slowing, 🔴 exhaustion pressure.
Monitor extremes: Top Testing and/or Overbought = tighten risk.
Exit on Sell or on your risk rules when exhaustion builds.
Limitations & Good Practice
Signals reflect price/volatility behavior, not certainty.
Strong trends can remain extended; Overbought/Top Test ≠ instant reversal.
Always confirm with your own risk rules, position sizing, and market context.
Initial public release: integrated Squeeze/Breakout/Buy → Momentum → Exhaustion → Sell cycle; improved label clarity; cleaned defaults.

HTF Bollinger Bands S/R with ShadingBollinger Band works as good support and resistance levels. This indicator shows the BB 2SD and 3SD on daily, weekly and monthly on lower timeframes.
Penguin TrendMeasures the volatility regime by comparing the upper Bollinger Band to the upper Keltner Channel and colors bars with a lightweight trend state. Supports SMA/EMA/WMA/RMA/HMA/VWMA/VWAP and a selectable calculation timeframe. Default settings preserve the original look and behavior.
Penguin Trend visualizes expansion vs. compression in price action by comparing two classic volatility envelopes. It computes:
Diff% = (UpperBB − UpperKC) / UpperKC × 100
* Diff > 0: Bollinger Bands are wider than Keltner Channels -> expansion / momentum regime.
* Diff < 0: BB narrower than KC -> compression / squeeze regime.
A white “Average Difference” line smooths Diff% (default: SMA(5)) to help spot regime shifts.
Trend coloring (kept from original):
Bars are colored only when Diff > 0 to emphasize expansion phases. A lightweight trend engine defines four states using a fast/slow MA bias and a short “thrust” MA applied to ohlc4:
* Green: Bullish bias and thrust > fast MA (healthy upside thrust).
* Red: Bearish bias and thrust < fast MA (healthy downside thrust).
* Yellow: Bullish bias but thrust ≤ fast MA (pullback/weakness).
* Blue: Bearish bias but thrust ≥ fast MA (bear rally/short squeeze).
Note: By default, Blue renders as Yellow to preserve the original visual style. Enable “Use true BLUE color” if you prefer Aqua for Blue.
How it works (under the hood):
* Bollinger Bands (BB): Basis = selected MA of src (default SMA(20)). Width = StdDev × Mult (default 2.0).
* Keltner Channels (KC): Basis = selected MA of src (default SMA(20)). Width = ATR(kcATR) × Mult (defaults 20 and 2.0).
* Diff%: Safe division guards against division-by-zero.
* MA engine: You can choose SMA / EMA / WMA / RMA / HMA / VWMA / VWAP for BB/KC bases, Diff smoothing, and the trend components (VWAP is session-anchored).
* Calculation timeframe: Set “Calculation timeframe” to compute all internals on a chosen TF via request.security() while viewing any chart TF.
Inputs (key ones):
* Calculation timeframe: Empty = use chart TF; if set (e.g., 60), all internals compute on that TF.
* BB: Length, StdDev Mult, MA Type.
* KC: Basis Length, ATR Length, Multiplier, MA Type.
* Smoothing: Average Length & MA Type for the “Average Difference” line.
* Trend Engine: Fast/Slow lengths & MA type; Signal (kept for completeness); Thrust length & MA type (defaults replicate original behavior).
* Display: Paint bars only when Diff > 0; optional Zero line; optional true Blue color.
How to use:
1. Regime changes: Watch Diff% or Average Diff crossing 0. Above zero favors momentum/continuation setups; below zero suggests compression and potential breakout conditions.
2. State confirmation: Use bar colors to qualify expansion: Green/Red indicate expansion aligned with trend thrust; Yellow/Blue flag weaker/contrarian thrust during expansion.
3. Multi-timeframe analysis: Run calculations on a higher TF (e.g., H1/H4) while trading a lower TF chart to smooth noise.
Alerts:
* Diff crosses above/below 0.
* Average Diff crosses above/below 0.
* State changes: GREEN / RED / YELLOW / BLUE.
Notes & limitations:
* VWAP is session-anchored and best on intraday data. If not applicable on the selected calculation TF, the script automatically falls back to EMA.
* Default parameters (SMA(20) for BB/KC, multipliers 2.0, SMA(5) smoothing, trend logic and bar painting) preserve the original appearance.
Release notes:
v6.0 — Rewritten in Pine v6 with structured inputs and guards. Multi-MA support (SMA/EMA/WMA/RMA/HMA/VWMA/VWAP). Calculation timeframe via request.security() for multi-TF workflows. Safe division; optional zero line; optional true Blue color. Original visuals and behavior preserved by default.
