Bands Bands (BanB)This indicator uses bands to show the trend of other bands.
The middle bands are used to show the price trend and the other bands are for the middle bands.
The Spike and Plunge bands can also act as a sort of "Bollinger Bands" for middle bands, though not exactly.
----- HOW TO USE IT -----
Zoom out in the 30 minute chart. Use 15 minute chart to pinpoint your entries.
Use with price-action trading and with indicators showing overbought & oversold levels.
The numbers below correlate with the numbers in the chart.
1) Price hits the Middle Spike line. The "ARL" bands hit the Bottom Spike line. This is a good indication that price will proceed under the Bottom Spike line.
2) Price hits the Bottom Plunge line. The "ARL" bands hit the Middle Plunge line. This is a good indication that price will proceed above the Middle Plunge line.
3) Notice how price spikes up near the Spike lines but doesn't touch. Notice how the Plunge lines have a strong pull downwards. This shows a continued down trend.
4) The same pattern as numbers 2 & 3 reoccur. This time, however, the proceeding price spike is substantially lower.
5) The price and middle bands finally bounce off the Top Plunge line and starts to get closer to the Spike bands.
6) Price and middle bands finally touch the Bottom Spike line and the Spike Bands and the Plunge Bands come closer together.
7) Narrowing Spike and Plunge Bands show a sideways market. Notice number 1, the bands are far apart -- more volatility is present.
Middle Bands:
The bottom, blue lines are fairly accurate dip-rebounds on the 30 minute chart. Use level indicators to find reversing trends (e.g., RSI, Stoch, etc.).
Price action hovering in between the blue lines and around the center indicate a low volatility market or a consolidating market.
----- HOW THIS INDICATOR IS ORIGINAL; WHAT IT DOES AND HOW IT DOES IT -----
This indicator has an original, unique ability to view the trend of bands in a substantially larger overview when zoomed out.
Normally, one would have to switch to higher time frames to get a sense of a larger market trend.
However, doing so will change any bands indicator to accommodate the new price action in relation to the new time frame.
To avoid this, the middle bands are placed in between two bands to see the trend of the bands that show the trend of price action.
----- VERSION -----
The "ARL Bands" in this indicator are NOT the same as the "ARL Bands" indicator.
They are "ARLs" set in an entirely different context, format, and amount and so does not constitute as a different version of "ARL Bands".
The "ARL Bands" indicator only has 4 lines and can be adjusted to any level. They are mainly focused on rebounds at desired levels.
The 13 "ARLs" here cannot be adjusted and are mainly focused on anticipating/calculating probabilities of peak and dip rebounds.
If any discrepancy should arise, let it be stated here that the "ARLs" in this indicator are considered to be a forked codebase to conserve the functionality of "ARL Bands".
This is proven by the differences described underneath "VERSION", which is located 7 lines above.

Jumbalika BandsThis indicator is designed using several common technical analysis tools: Bollinger Bands, Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs), and the Parabolic SAR. I'll walk you through each section to explain how it works and how you can use it:
1. Bollinger Bands
Bollinger Bands are used to measure volatility and overbought/oversold conditions. It consists of three lines:
Basis (Middle Line): A simple moving average (SMA) of the price over a defined period (in this case, 20 periods).
Upper Band: The basis plus a certain number of standard deviations. It represents the upper boundary of expected price movement.
Lower Band: The basis minus the same number of standard deviations. It represents the lower boundary of expected price movement.
Interpretation:
Overbought: If the price moves above the upper band, it could signal that the asset is overbought.
Oversold: If the price moves below the lower band, it could signal that the asset is oversold.
Volatility: A wider band indicates higher volatility, and a narrower band indicates lower volatility.
2. Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs)
The indicator plots four different EMAs:
9-period EMA: This is a short-term trend indicator.
20-period EMA on Close: This is another medium-term trend indicator, based on the close price.
20-period EMA on High: A variation of the 20-period EMA, but based on the high prices.
20-period EMA on Low: A variation of the 20-period EMA, but based on the low prices.
Interpretation:
9 EMA: A faster-moving average that responds quicker to price changes. It can be used to identify short-term trends.
20 EMA: A slower-moving average that reacts more gradually to price changes. It helps identify the broader trend.
High/Low EMAs: These give additional insights into the extremes of price action, which can help identify possible support or resistance levels.
Trading signals (common usage):
Crossover: When a shorter EMA (like the 9 EMA) crosses above a longer EMA (like the 20 EMA), it could be a bullish signal. When it crosses below, it could be a bearish signal.
3. Parabolic SAR
The Parabolic SAR is a trend-following indicator that is used to identify potential price reversals. The Parabolic SAR is plotted as a series of dots either above or below the price, depending on the trend:
Below the price: The trend is up (bullish).
Above the price: The trend is down (bearish)
4. Background Coloring (Optional)
The background will change color when the price crosses the Bollinger Bands:
Green background when the price is above the upper Bollinger Band.
Red background when the price is below the lower Bollinger Band.
Adjust the values for Bollinger Bands, EMAs, and Parabolic SAR directly in the indicator settings to suit your trading preferences.
Bollinger Bands: If the price is above the upper band, it might indicate an overbought condition, while if it's below the lower band, it might indicate an oversold condition.
EMAs: The 9 EMA is often used to track short-term trends, while the 20-period EMAs (on the close, high, and low) help analyze the broader market trend.
Parabolic SAR: The Parabolic SAR is often used to identify trend reversals. If the SAR is below the price, the trend is up, and if it's above the price, the trend is down.
Background Color: The background coloring helps visually highlight potential market conditions when the price breaks out of the Bollinger Bands.
Example Use Case:
Decide the trend based on the parabolic SAR, when the bar touches the upper or lower Bollinger take a short or long position based on the price action using EMAs.
Bollinger Bands CustomThe indicator is a customized version of Bollinger Bands with added trading signals. This indicator is designed to help traders identify potential entry (buy) and exit (sell) points based on the interaction between the price and the Bollinger Bands. Below, I will explain in detail its purpose, how it works, and how to use it.
Purpose of the Indicator
The main purpose of this indicator is:
Identify market volatility: Bollinger Bands expand and contract based on price volatility.
Provide trading signals: The indicator generates buy signals (BUY) when the price crosses the lower band and sell signals (SELL) when the price crosses the upper band.
Help identify dynamic support and resistance levels: The upper and lower bands act as dynamic resistance and support levels.
How the Indicator Works
The indicator is based on three main components:
Moving Average (SMA): It calculates the simple moving average (SMA) of the price over a specified period (length).
Bollinger Bands:
The upper band is calculated as the moving average plus a standard deviation multiplied by a factor (mult).
The lower band is calculated as the moving average minus a standard deviation multiplied by the same factor.
Trading signals:
A BUY signal is generated when the price crosses above the lower band.
A SELL signal is generated when the price crosses below the upper band.
How to Use the Indicator
Here is a step-by-step guide on how to use the indicator on TradingView:
1. Add the Indicator to the Chart
Copy the Pine Script code you created.
Open TradingView and go to the Pine Editor.
Paste the code and click "Add to Chart."
The indicator will be displayed directly on the price chart.
2. Customize the Parameters
You can customize the following parameters:
Moving Average Length (length): Set the period for the moving average (default is 20).
Price Source (source): Choose the price to use (default is the closing price).
Standard Deviation Multiplier (mult): Set the multiplier for the standard deviation (default is 2.0).
3. Interpret the Signals
BUY Signal: When you see a "BUY" label below a candle, it means the price has crossed above the lower band. This could indicate a buying opportunity.
SELL Signal: When you see a "SELL" label above a candle, it means the price has crossed below the upper band. This could indicate a selling opportunity.
4. Use Bollinger Bands as Support and Resistance
If the price approaches the upper band, it might indicate a resistance level.
If the price approaches the lower band, it might indicate a support level.
5. Monitor the Colored Background
The chart background turns light green when there is a BUY signal and light red when there is a SELL signal. This helps you quickly identify signals.
Practical Example
Suppose you are analyzing a daily chart of a stock or cryptocurrency:
If the price crosses above the lower band, the indicator will show a "BUY" label. You might consider this as a signal to open a long position.
If the price crosses below the upper band, the indicator will show a "SELL" label. You might consider this as a signal to close a long position or open a short position.
Limitations and Considerations
False signals: In range-bound markets, Bollinger Bands can generate many false signals. It is advisable to use this indicator in combination with other technical analysis tools.
Extreme volatility: During periods of high volatility, the bands expand, and signals may become less reliable.
Confirmation: It is always good practice to confirm signals with other indicators (e.g., RSI, MACD) or candlestick analysis.
Conclusion
My indicator is a useful tool for identifying potential trading opportunities based on Bollinger Bands. However, as with any indicator, it is important to use it in combination with other forms of analysis and risk management to maximize effectiveness. Happy trading! 🚀
SMA with ATR BandsSMA with ATR Bands
This custom indicator combines the Simple Moving Average (SMA) with Average True Range (ATR) bands. It’s designed to help traders identify potential price reversals and gauge volatility. Here’s what it does:
Simple Moving Average (SMA):
The SMA represents the average price over a specified period.
It acts as a trend-following line, smoothing out price fluctuations.
The blue line on the chart represents the SMA.
ATR Bands:
The ATR measures volatility by calculating the average range between high and low prices.
We add and subtract the ATR (multiplied by a user-defined factor) from the SMA to create the bands.
The green upper band and red lower band dynamically adjust based on volatility.
How to Use It:
Volatility Signals: When the bands are close together (a “squeeze”), it indicates low volatility. A breakout often follows.
Overbought/Oversold: Price touching the upper band suggests overbought conditions, while touching the lower band suggests oversold conditions.
Trend Confirmation: The indicator can confirm trends.
Feel free to use this indicator on TradingView to enhance your trading strategy. Remember to customize the parameters according to your preferences. Happy trading! 📈🚀

Advanced BB Bands with PlotThis code implements an advanced version of Bollinger Bands with additional moving averages, ATR-based bands, step lines, market direction indicators, and real-time data display. Here’s a breakdown of the functionality:
1. Inputs and Parameters:
length: The base period used for calculating the moving averages and the typical price.
atr_length: The length used for calculating the Average True Range (ATR).
step_length: The period for calculating step lines (highest high and lowest low over a given period).
2. Core Calculations:
Typical Price: (high + low + close) / 3 is the base for the moving averages.
ATR: ta.atr(atr_length) is used to create dynamic bands around the moving averages.
PL Dot: An average of the typical prices from the current and past two bars. This provides a short-term trend indicator.
3. Multiple Moving Averages (MAs):
Three simple moving averages (ma1, ma2, ma3) are calculated using different multiples of the base length. These help indicate short-, mid-, and long-term trends.
4. Step Lines:
Step Up: Highest close over the step_length.
Step Down: Lowest close over the step_length. These act as short-term support and resistance levels.
5. Outer Bands:
Upper Band: ma1 + 2 * ATR, an upper boundary based on ATR volatility.
Lower Band: ma1 - 2 * ATR, a lower boundary. Together, these form a dynamic range around the short-term moving average.
6. Market Direction:
Bullish or Bearish condition is determined by comparing ma1 and ma2. If ma1 is above ma2, the market is bullish; otherwise, it's bearish. This decision is displayed on the TradingView chart using a table.
7. Visual Elements:
Moving Averages (ma1, ma2, ma3): Plotted in different colors (blue, purple, white) to indicate different timeframes.
PL Dot: A step line plot for the PL Dot, which helps in spotting short-term trends.
Step Lines: Step-up and step-down levels plotted in lime and red, respectively.
Outer Bands: Upper and lower ATR-based bands plotted in aqua, with a filled region between the bands for easy visualization of price volatility.
Candlestick Coloring: Green bars for bullish and red for bearish price action.
8. Real-Time Board Display:
A table is created in the top-right corner of the chart to display:
The current closing price.
The market direction ("Bullish" or "Bearish").
The PL Dot value. The table updates on the most recent bar (barstate.islast).
9. Dynamic Labels:
On the most recent bar, labels are added dynamically to the upper and lower bands and the ma1. These labels help in identifying the values of key indicators directly on the chart.
10. Signals and Alerts:
Bullish and Bearish Cross: Visual signals are plotted on the chart when ma1 crosses above or below ma2. These are represented as up and down triangles, providing potential buy/sell signals.
Key Features Summarized:
Multi-Timeframe Moving Averages: 3 MAs based on different timeframes.
Dynamic ATR Bands: ATR-based upper and lower boundaries for volatility measurement.
Step Lines: Short-term high and low lines for support/resistance.
PL Dot: A short-term trend identifier.
Real-Time Dashboard: Live updates of price, trend, and PL Dot on the chart.
Visual Alerts: Dynamic labeling and crossover signals to assist in decision-making.
This script is designed for traders who want to track price movement within bands, evaluate trends across multiple timeframes, and visualize short-term market direction with dynamic alerts.
Bollinger Bands, RSI, and MA StrategyThe "Bollinger Bands, RSI and MA Strategy" is a trend-following strategy that combines the Bollinger Bands indicator, the Relative Strength Index (RSI), and a moving average (MA). It aims to identify potential entry and exit points in the market based on price volatility, momentum, and trend.
The strategy uses two Bollinger Bands with different standard deviations to create price channels. The default settings for the Bollinger Bands are a length of 20 periods and a standard deviation of 2.0. The upper and lower bands of the Bollinger Bands serve as dynamic resistance and support levels, respectively.
The RSI indicator is employed to gauge the strength of price momentum.
The strategy also incorporates a 50-period moving average (MA) to help identify the overall trend direction. When the price is above the MA, it suggests an uptrend, and when the price is below the MA, it suggests a downtrend.
The entry conditions for long trades are when the RSI is above the overbought level and there is no contraction in the Bollinger Bands. For short trades, the entry conditions are when the RSI is below the oversold level and there is no contraction in the Bollinger Bands.
The exit conditions for long trades are when the RSI drops below the overbought level or when the price closes below the 50-period MA.
For short trades, the exit conditions are when the RSI goes above the oversold level or when the price closes above the 50-period MA.
The strategy generates alerts for potential long and short entry signals, as well as for exit signals when the specified conditions are met. These alerts can be used to receive notifications or take further actions, such as placing trades manually or using automated trading systems.
It is important to note that this strategy serves as a starting point and should be thoroughly backtested and validated with historical data before applying it to live trading. Additionally, it is recommended to consider risk management techniques, including setting appropriate stop-loss and take-profit levels, to effectively manage trades.

RSI Bands with Volume and EMAThis script is a comprehensive technical analysis tool designed to help traders identify key market signals using RSI bands, volume, and multiple Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs). It overlays the following on the chart:
RSI Bands: The script calculates and plots two bands based on the Relative Strength Index (RSI), indicating overbought and oversold levels. These bands act as dynamic support and resistance zones:
Resistance Band (Upper Band): Plotted when the RSI exceeds the overbought level, typically indicating a potential sell signal.
Support Band (Lower Band): Plotted when the RSI falls below the oversold level, typically indicating a potential buy signal.
Midline: The average of the upper and lower bands, acting as a neutral reference.
Buy/Sell Labels: Labels are dynamically added to the chart when price reaches the overbought or oversold levels.
A "Buy" label appears when the price reaches the oversold (lower) band.
A "Sell" label appears when the price reaches the overbought (upper) band.
Volume Indicator: The script visualizes trading volume as histograms, with red or green bars representing decreasing or increasing volume, respectively. The volume height is visually reduced for better clarity and comparison.
Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs): The script calculates and plots four key EMAs (12, 26, 50, and 200) to highlight short-term, medium-term, and long-term trends:
EMA 12: Blue
EMA 26: Orange
EMA 50: Purple
EMA 200: Green
The combined use of RSI, volume, and EMAs offers traders a multi-faceted view of the market, assisting in making informed decisions about potential price reversals, trends, and volume analysis. The script is particularly useful for identifying entry and exit points on charts like BTC/USDT, although it can be applied to any asset.
Standard Error Bands**Standard Error Bands Indicator: A Statistically Robust Tool for Trend Analysis**
The Standard Error Bands (SEB) indicator is a powerful technical analysis tool designed to help traders identify and assess trends with greater accuracy. Unlike traditional band indicators (e.g., Bollinger Bands) that rely on price averages, SEB leverages linear regression and statistical measures of volatility to offer deeper insights into market dynamics.
**How It Works**
1. **Linear Regression:** The indicator first calculates a linear regression line to model the underlying price trend. This line represents the "best fit" of price data over the specified lookback period.
2. **Standard Error:** Next, it calculates the standard error of the regression. This statistical measure quantifies the average distance between actual prices and the regression line, effectively acting as a volatility gauge.
3. **Smoothing:** Both the linear regression line and the standard error values are smoothed using a Simple Moving Average (SMA) to reduce noise and enhance the visual clarity of the bands.
4. **Band Construction:** The upper and lower bands are formed by adding/subtracting a multiple of the smoothed standard error from the smoothed linear regression line. The default multiplier is 2, representing approximately 95% of price action expected within the bands under normal market conditions.
**Key Insights**
* **Trend Strength:** Tight bands suggest a strong, well-defined trend with low volatility. Prices tend to adhere closely to the regression line, indicating a high probability of trend continuation.
* **Trend Weakness/Change:** Widening or expanding bands signal increased volatility and potential trend weakness. Prices deviating from the regression line may suggest an impending trend reversal or a shift into a sideways consolidation phase.
* **Entry/Exit Signals:**
* Consider entering a trade when prices break out of the bands in the direction of the trend, especially if the bands were previously tight.
* Conversely, consider exiting a trade when prices pierce the bands against the trend or when the bands start to widen significantly.
**Use Cases**
* **Trend Identification:** SEB can help traders identify trends earlier and more accurately than moving average-based indicators.
* **Trend Confirmation:** The bands can be used to confirm the validity and strength of an existing trend.
* **Volatility Assessment:** Changes in band width provide valuable insights into market volatility, aiding risk management decisions.
* **Entry/Exit Timing:** SEB can be incorporated into trading strategies to generate timely entry and exit signals.
**Important Considerations**
* **Parameter Optimization:** Experiment with different lookback periods, smoothing values, and standard error multipliers to find the optimal settings for your preferred trading style and market conditions.
* **Supplementary Indicators:** Combine SEB with other technical indicators (e.g., momentum oscillators, volume analysis) for a more comprehensive market assessment.
* **Backtesting:** Thoroughly backtest any SEB-based trading strategy to ensure its effectiveness before deploying it in live markets.
**Disclaimer:** Technical indicators like SEB are valuable tools but should not be used in isolation. Always consider price action or fundamental factors and risk management principles when making trading decisions.

Great for identifying high-probability reversal or continuation areas in both trending and ranging markets.
S2BU2 True Range BandsWhat it is:
A twist on the DMI and ATR indicators.
How it is calculated:
What you see is a basic 14-period EMA calculated based on the opening price of the candle.
Extending from this base is the average true range, showing the expected realistic movement in that direction.
How you may interpret what you see:
Extended movement outside of those bands indicates a strong trend and also indicates a bad time to enter. In a sideways market the best time to get in and out is whenever the chart crosses the upper/lower bands. As usual, do not use this indicator alone to determine your entries/exits. If you find a regular behaviour related to this indicator that is not mentioned here feel free to reach out to me. I will consider adding it the list
How you may improve accuracy:
Most obvious - combine with different indicators measuring different things. This indicator measures potential direction. You may combine it with a simple trendindicator, momentum-indicator, etc. There is little use in combining it with another indicator measuring the same thing. When using 2 indicators for the same aspect, pick the one that is more reliable or reacts faster - depending on your preference and strategy.
Another Option to improve accuracy is to overlap the indicator on several timeframes. Dissonance is weakness. Ressonance is strength. if you see many tfs showing the same movement it may be a good time to get in - you will have to judge it yourself though ;)
Acceleration BandsPrice Headley\'s Acceleration Bands serve as a trading envelope that factor in a stock\'s typical volatility over standard settings of 20 or 80 bars. They can be used across any time frame, though Headley prefers to use them most across weekly and monthly timeframes as breakout indicators outside these bands, while using the shorter time frames to define likely support and resistance levels at the lower and upper Acceleration Bands. Acceleration Bands are plotted around a simple moving average as the midpoint, and the upper and lower bands are of equal distance from this midpoint.

Dual Bollinger Bands (20 & 200)Dual Bollinger Bands (20 & 200) - Enhanced Trading Strategy
Overview
The Dual Bollinger Bands (20 & 200) indicator is an enhanced version of the Double Bollinger Bands by Alixnet. This advanced tool integrates two sets of Bollinger Bands with 20-period (short-term) and 200-period (long-term) moving averages, helping traders identify market trends, volatility, and potential trade setups more effectively.
Key Features
✅ Two Bollinger Band Sets – Short-term (20-period) and Long-term (200-period).
✅ Enable/Disable Each BB – Customize visibility for better analysis.
✅ Multiple Standard Deviations – Identify different levels of volatility.
✅ Background Fill for Clarity – Highlights volatility zones.
How to Use This Indicator Effectively
1. Understanding the Two Bollinger Bands
BB1 (20-Period): Measures short-term price movements and volatility.
BB2 (200-Period): Acts as a long-term trend filter to determine the dominant trend.
2. Trade Entries & Exits
Bullish Trade Setup (Long Entry)
🔹 Price Above 200 MA Basis Line (BB2) – Confirms an uptrend.
🔹 Price Pulls Back to the Lower Band of BB1 (20 MA) – Ideal buy opportunity.
🔹 Confirmation: If price bounces off the lower BB1 band and moves back toward the midline or upper band, enter a long position.
🔹 Exit: When price touches or exceeds the upper BB1 band.
Bearish Trade Setup (Short Entry)
🔹 Price Below 200 MA Basis Line (BB2) – Confirms a downtrend.
🔹 Price Pulls Back to the Upper Band of BB1 (20 MA) – Ideal short opportunity.
🔹 Confirmation: If price gets rejected at the upper BB1 band and moves downward, enter a short position.
🔹 Exit: When price reaches or drops below the lower BB1 band.
3. Avoiding Sideways Markets
❌ Avoid trading when price stays between the two bands of BB1 without breaking out.
❌ Flat 200 MA Line (BB2 Basis) indicates a ranging market – best to wait for a breakout.
✅ Wait for Price to Cross the 200 MA Basis Line to confirm trend direction before entering trades.
4. Catching Trending Moves
✅ Strong Trend Confirmation: When price stays above or below the 20-period BB bands and also above/below the 200-period MA.
✅ Trend Continuation: If price consolidates near the upper or lower bands without breaking opposite levels.
✅ Breakout Confirmation: Look for a candle close outside BB1 bands with momentum to confirm strong moves.
Final Thoughts
The Dual Bollinger Bands (20 & 200) indicator is a powerful tool for both short-term traders and long-term investors. By combining the short-term volatility of the 20-period BB with the long-term trend of the 200-period BB, traders can make more informed trading decisions, filter out noise, and capture high-probability trade setups.
Triple HMA Bands (1.2 / 1.4 / 1.6)📈 Triple HMA Bands — Custom Volatility & Trend Indicator
Description:
The Triple HMA Bands indicator combines the Hull Moving Average (HMA) with volatility-based envelopes, similar to Bollinger Bands, to visualize trend direction and market extremes.
The HMA (length 90) serves as the central trend line, offering a smooth and responsive view of market direction.
Surrounding the HMA are three dynamic bands calculated using standard deviations of price:
Inner Band (1.2σ) — normal volatility range.
Middle Band (1.4σ) — elevated volatility zone.
Outer Band (1.6σ) — statistically extreme price movement.
The shaded zones between the bands help visualize volatility expansion and contraction, making it easier to identify:
Trend strength and stability
Potential reversal zones
Breakout or breakdown events
How to Use:
Price staying within the inner band may indicate a stable trend or consolidation.
Price reaching or exceeding the outer band suggests overbought/oversold conditions and potential reversal.
Widening bands = rising volatility; narrowing bands = low volatility, often before a breakout.
This indicator is ideal for trend traders, mean reversion strategies, or anyone wanting a volatility-sensitive trend filter.
Foxy's Logarithmic Bollinger BandsThis versatile indicator plots logarithmic Bollinger Bands on any financial asset or timeframe in the TradingView platform. Unlike traditional Bollinger Bands, which use simple arithmetic calculations, Foxy's LBB employs logarithmic scales to better capture and visualize percentage-based price movements.
The core functionality includes:
Basis Line: A central moving average line calculated on the log10 of the selected price source (default is close price). Multiple moving average types are available, including SMA, EMA, RMA, and volume-weighted variants.
Upper/Lower Bands 1: The first set of upper and lower bands, plotted at a user-defined number of standard deviations (default 2.0) above and below the Basis Line.
Upper/Lower Bands 2: A second set of bands plotted at a different standard deviation level (default 3.0) to cater to different volatility preferences.
Offset: An option to vertically offset the plotted lines for better visualization alongside other indicators or studies.
By using a logarithmic scale, Foxy's LBB provides a more accurate representation of percentage-based price changes, making it particularly useful for analyzing and trading volatile assets or markets with significant price swings.
Traders can leverage this indicator for various purposes, such as identifying potential overbought/oversold conditions, gauging volatility levels, and spotting trend continuations or reversals based on the interaction between price and the band levels.
Whether you're a seasoned trader or just starting, Foxy's LBB offers a powerful and flexible tool to enhance your technical analysis and decision-making process in the TradingView environment.

Team Undergrounds Magic RSI BandsWhat is this indicator?
This indicator shows RSI but visualize as bands with custom timeframe settings. Normal RSI doesn't really visualse well when the price gets overbought/oversold and generally because of candle closes it can be hard to determine if the price has already touched the prefered RSI level. The custom timeframe allows you to go to shorter or longer timeframes on the chart while maintaining the same timeframe on the RSI indicator.
How does it work?
Add this indicator to the chart, and you'll see 2 bands (green and red). By standard settings, the green band shows when price goes below 30 RSI and the red line when price goes above 70 on the RSI. By standard settings the RSI band is set to 7 hour because this tends to work well with Bitcoin and crypto in general, but the timeframe can be changed in the settings. 12hr, 3hr, 3D, 1W are all good timeframes based off personal preference. The overbought/oversold level and RSI length can also be adjusted.
Indicator is not a financial advice tool, and offcourse, data can always change. Past price does not predict future price by defintion.
