Deviation Magnet - JD
Updated
This indicator shows price in relation to the standard deviations in a normalised way.
It can be seen as a kind of Bollinger Bands, where the bands stay the same size apart and price amplitude is modified between them,
or as a 'normalised' version of my BBC indicator.
Contrary to the popular use where price is seen as BOUNCING AGAINST the different deviations (or upper and lower BBands),
I tend to find that price likes to STICK to those deviations once it hits them (with a high or a low wick) and "rides them" for a while.
I call this "THE MAGNET EFFECT" of the standard deviations.
The indicator highlights those "MAGNET MOVES".
For most assets I like to use 50 period deviations better than the standard 20 period because it shows the bigger trends better
but of course this can be modified to your liking!
