Bollinger Bands + Keltner Channel Refurbished█ Goals
This is an indicator that brings together Bollinger Bands and Keltner's Channels in one thing.
Both are very similar, so I decided to make a merge of the best features I found out there.
Here there is the possibility of choosing one of these two as needed.
In addition, I added the following resources:
1. Pre-Defined intermediate bands with Fibonacci values;
2. Detachment of the bands in which the price was present;
3. Choice of Moving Average:
"Simple", "Exponential", "Regularized Exponential", "Hull", "Arnaud Legoux", "Weighted Moving Average", "Least Squares Moving Average (Linear Regression)", "Volume Weighted Moving Average", "Smoothed Moving Average", "Median", "VWAP");
4. Statistics: bars count within the bands.
█ Concepts
Keltner Channels vs. Bollinger Bands
"These two indicators are quite similar.
Keltner Channels use ATR to calculate the upper and lower bands while Bollinger Bands use standard deviation instead.
The interpretation of the indicators is similar, although since the calculations are different the two indicators may provide slightly different information or trade signals."
(Investopedia)
Bollinger Bands (BB)
"Bollinger Bands (BB) are a widely popular technical analysis instrument created by John Bollinger in the early 1980’s.
Bollinger Bands consist of a band of three lines which are plotted in relation to security prices.
The line in the middle is usually a Simple Moving Average (SMA) set to a period of 20 days (the type of trend line and period can be changed by the trader; however a 20 day moving average is by far the most popular).
The SMA then serves as a base for the Upper and Lower Bands which are used as a way to measure volatility by observing the relationship between the Bands and price.
Typically the Upper and Lower Bands are set to two standard deviations away from the SMA (The Middle Line); however the number of standard deviations can also be adjusted by the trader."
(TradingView)
Keltner Channels (KC)
"The Keltner Channels (KC) indicator is a banded indicator similar to Bollinger Bands and Moving Average Envelopes.
They consist of an Upper Envelope above a Middle Line as well as a Lower Envelope below the Middle Line.
The Middle Line is a moving average of price over a user-defined time period.
Either a simple moving average or an exponential moving average are typically used. The Upper and Lower Envelopes (user defined) are set a range away from the Middle Line.
This can be a multiple of the daily high/low range, or more commonly a multiple of the Average True Range."

LNL Keltner ExhaustionLNL Keltner Exhaustion resolves the constant issue of Bands vs. EMAs
With the keltner exhaustion wedges, you can easily see the keltner channel extremes witout using the actual bands. That way, you will know whether the price is outside of the keltner channels + you can use other indicators (such as EMAs) on chart without the bands so the chart does not look messy & hard to read.
Two Types of Wedges:
1. Green/Red Wedge - Price action is extended outside the regular band. More of a "profit taking" zone rather than "entry taking" (default set to 3.0 ATR factor).
2. Purple Wedge - Price action is extended outside of the extreme band. Chances are price will revert to mean soon (default set to 4.0 ATR factor).
Works great as a target tool with the squeeze setup or as an overall extension gauge.
Hope it helps.
multicolor Bollinger Bands (BB <-> KC)Concept:
After every low volatile phase comes a high volatile phase and after every high volatile phase comes a low volatile phase.
If the Bollinger bands are smaller then the Keltner channel (colored red), the price action is low in volatility… meaning a breakout (colored green) will happen soon.
If Bollinger band is bigger than the Keltner channel = green
If Bollinger band is smaller than the Keltner channel = red
Displaying the Keltner Channel is optional
If multicolor BB is disabled, BB color = blue (default color)

Keltner Channel With User Selectable Moving AvgKeltner Channel with user options to calculate the moving average basis and envelopes from a variety of different moving averages.
The user selects their choice of moving average, and the envelopes automatically adjust. The user may select a MA that reacts faster to volatility or slower/smoother.
Added additional options to color the envelopes or basis based on the current trend and alternate candle colors for envelope touches. The script has a rainbow gradient by default based on RSI.
Options (generally from slower/smoother to faster/more responsive to volatility):
SMMA,
SMA,
Donchian, (Note: Selecting Donchian will just convert this indicator to a regular Donchian Channel)
Tillson T3,
EMA,
VWMA,
WMA,
EHMA,
ALMA,
LSMA,
HMA,
TEMA
Value Added:
Allows Keltner Channel to be calculated from a variety of moving averages other than EMA/SMA, including ones that are well liked by traders such as Tillson T3, ALMA, Hull MA, and TEMA.
Glossary:
The Hull Moving Average ( HMA ), developed by Alan Hull, is an extremely fast and smooth moving average . In fact, the HMA almost eliminates lag altogether and manages to improve smoothing at the same time.
The Exponential Hull Moving Average is similar to the standard Hull MA, but with superior smoothing. The standard Hull Moving Average is derived from the weighted moving average ( WMA ). As other moving average built from weighted moving averages it has a tendency to exaggerate price movement.
Weighted Moving Average: A Weighted Moving Average ( WMA ) is similar to the simple moving average ( SMA ), except the WMA adds significance to more recent data points.
Arnaud Legoux Moving Average: ALMA removes small price fluctuations and enhances the trend by applying a moving average twice, once from left to right, and once from right to left. At the end of this process the phase shift (price lag) commonly associated with moving averages is significantly reduced. Zero-phase digital filtering reduces noise in the signal. Conventional filtering reduces noise in the signal, but adds a delay.
Least Squares: Based on sum of least squares method to find a straight line that best fits data for the selected period. The end point of the line is plotted and the process is repeated on each succeeding period.
Triple EMA (TEMA) : The triple exponential moving average (TEMA) was designed to smooth price fluctuations, thereby making it easier to identify trends without the lag associated with traditional moving averages (MA). It does this by taking multiple exponential moving averages (EMA) of the original EMA and subtracting out some of the lag.
Running (SMoothed) Moving Average: A Modified Moving Average (MMA) (otherwise known as the Running Moving Average (RMA), or SMoothed Moving Average (SMMA)) is an indicator that shows the average value of a security's price over a period of time. It works very similar to the Exponential Moving Average, they are equivalent but for different periods (e.g., the MMA value for a 14-day period will be the same as EMA-value for a 27-days period).
Volume-Weighted Moving Average: The Volume-weighted Moving Average (VWMA) emphasizes volume by weighing prices based on the amount of trading activity in a given period of time. Users can set the length, the source and an offset. Prices with heavy trading activity get more weight than prices with light trading activity.
Tillson T3: The Tillson moving average a.k.a. the Tillson T3 indicator is one of the smoothest moving averages and is both composite and adaptive.
Optimized Keltner Channels SL/TP Strategy for BTCThis strategy is optimized for Bitcoin with the Keltner Channel Strategy, which is TradingView's built-in strategy. In the original Keltner Channel Strategy, it was difficult to predict the timing of entry because the Buy and Sell signals floated in the middle of the candle in real time. This strategy is convenient because if the bitcoin price hits the top or bottom of the Keltner Channel and closes the closing price, you can enter Buy or Sell at the next candle start price. In addition, this strategy provides Stop Loss and Take Profit functions to maximize profit.

Keltner Channel [LINKUSDT] 1HThis is a long-only strategy tested on LINK/USDT, 1 hour bar, from Feb 2019. The entry is determined by the breakout of upper Keltnel Channel and when the +DI is higher than 32. Instead of a fixed stop-loss from the original script , I change the exit to the middle band of the Keltnel Channel. 1st profit target will close 20% of the position. 2nd profit target will close 30% of the position. While the remaining 50% position will be closed when the price closes below the middle band of the Keltnel Channel, to take advantage of big trend. All parameters are adjustable. I added another option to enable or disable the ribbon trend filter.
My thoughts: For the same period, LINK appreciated 3000%. So I guess most in and out strategies couldn’t beat a buy and hold strategy during this period. But this doesn’t mean that this strategy is not feasible as each strategy is designed to only take advantage of a certain pattern or behavior of the market. Also, short term strategies allow you to use leverage and hence enable you to use you capital efficiently. Commission is set to 0.1%, taking account of the slippage.
Suggestion: Please perform walk forward analysis before you use real money for trading. Parameters need to be adjusted from time to time depends on your analysis. Can try using ATR for profit targets as over a longer term, the volatility might drop hence a high fixed % profit targets might not be realistic.
Any suggestions are welcome!

CBG Keltner ChannelsHere's an updated version of the CBG Keltner Channel indicator.
1. Added a new option for painting bars and backgrounds.
- Option 5 will paint up bars if the midline moving average is moving up and price is above the control moving average. It will paint down bars if the opposite is true. If neither are true, it will paint a neutral color. The neutral color defaults to gray bars and no color for backgrounds.
2. I've also added a 3rd band.
The chart here shows the default settings except for the inner band which is turned off.
NSDT Triple KeltnerA different spin on Keltner Channels. Using 3 channels of varying widths provides a good visual for potential entries off of extremes. Normal channel is center, green and red "zones" could be used as potential entry/exit areas, and the outside yellow zones may be viewed as extremes (signifying potential breakouts or strong reversal areas).
