Keltner+Bollinger Squeeze [kingthies_]Keltner-Bollinger-Combo Squeeze
As you likely know, the bollinger squeeze comes from the bband indicator, a classic indicator in all forms of technical analysis, effectively measuring volatility of a given assets price movement.
There are different forms of the squeeze here on tradingview, and I've combined the Bollinger band indicator in my own strategy, to the alternative and similar appearing Keltner channels. The two work incredibly well together and I've used them in my analysis for years now as my core approach to understanding the technical side of the markets.
This tool will show users the result that i typically look for when assessing for potential volatile moves in the near future for an asset, and will highlight the chart + send an alert when the chart is something to look at and the indicator suggests incoming volatility may be in the near future.
The users will still need to assess themselves whether the squeeze they see is a bullish or bearish leaning, but the overall idea is to set it and forget it with the alert clause thats added in.
Personally i enjoy this with Heikin ashi inputs but use whichever preference you have, and all timeframes + tickers should apply here.
Cheers
Squeeze
Stoch X, an Indicator of Indicators by DGTStochastic refers to a randomly determined process and financial markets use stochastic models to represent the seemingly random behaviour of assets and then used by quantitative analysts to value options on asset prices
The stochastic oscillator, developed by George Lane, presents the location of the closing price of a stock in relation to the high and low range of the price of a stock over a period of time. Lane has said that the stochastic oscillator does not follow price or volume or anything similar. He indicates that the oscillator follows the speed or momentum of price.
Traditionally, readings over 80 are considered in the overbought range, and readings under 20 are considered oversold. Please note that, very strong trends can maintain overbought or oversold conditions for an extended period and traders should look to changes in the stochastic oscillator for clues about future trend shifts. It is advised to check the higher timeframe of your trading timeframe and see where you are in the “big picture”
Signal crosses , intersection of stochastic and its signal line is considered to be a signal that a reversal may be in the works
Divergence between the stochastic oscillator and trending price action is also seen as an important reversal signal
Lane also reveals in interviews that, as a rule, the momentum or speed of the price of a stock changes before the price changes itself . In this way, the stochastic oscillator can be used to foreshadow reversals when the indicator reveals bullish or bearish divergences. This signal is the first, and arguably the most important, trading signal Lane identified.
What is Stochastic X ?
Stochastic X , is essentially an indicator of an indicator, providing stochastic calculation to some of well known indicators, such as RSI, MFI, OBV, etc. This means that it is a measure of selected specific indicator relative to its own high/low range over a user defined period of time.
Features of Stoch X
1- Displays Stoch of and indicator plus a companion indicator (companion display can be disabled from user dialog box)
Available options
Stoch Source plus PM A, where Source is close price and PMA refers to Price Distance to its Moving Average (for further details you may check my study of Price Distance to its MA by DGT, and different application of distance concept available with “MACD-X, More Than MACD" And “P-MACD”)
Stoch RSI plus RSI , Stoch RSI, developed by Tushar Chande and Stanley Kroll, is a build-in indicator available on Trading View, where Stoch X adds RSI as a companion indicator to Stoch RSI
Stoch MFI and MFI , where MFI is Money Flow Index, measures buying and selling pressure through analyzing both price and volume
Stoch OBV + VO , Where OBV is On Balance Volume, is a momentum indicator that measures positive and negative volume flow. VO stands for Volume Oscillator which aims to confirm a market turnaround or trend reversal
Stoch EWO + EWO , EWO stands for Elliott Wave Oscillator
By default the threshold levels are indicated and are displayed differently for the regular Stoch or Stoch RSI. Overbought band (70-80), oversold band (20-30) and middle line (0) are emphasized
Warning : Centered Oscillators base line is moved from 0 to 50 to better suit with Stoch X, which is applied to PMA, VO and EWO
2- Can be plotted along with Stoch in the same window using the same scaling
To avoid misinterpreting the area between Stoch X and its Signal Line is highlighted automatically in case Stoch is selected to be plotted
3- Squeeze Indicator added as Add-on in the bottom of the Stoch X
During volatile market conditions the stochastic oscillator has been known to produce false signals. One way to help with this is to take the price trend as a filter, or basic chart pattern analysis can help to identify major, underlying trends and increase the Stoch X's accuracy.
This study implements Squeeze Indicator to help and add additional insight for filtering false signals. Blue diamond shapes indicates the squeeze release, that is volatility increased and according to momentum direction the buy/sell possibility can be considered. Orange ones displays consolidation periods, that is low volatility and the market is assumed to be in squeeze and no trade is recommended. in this phase.

1337 SqueezeThis is a squeeze indicator plotted on the chart, with configurable values. Green crosses show when there is a squeeze (bollinger bands inside keltner channels). Red crosses show a potential release/breakout when close > bollinger bands.
You can also edit the settings of the indicator to show the bollinger bands and keltner channels (by removing the transparency).
Renko AccelerationRenko is a very useful charting method for analyzing stock movement. It does a great job of filtering out all the excess noise so that all we're left with is pure price action. But, what about time? Time is a fundamental part of chart analysis and we are only seeing part of the picture. After all, shouldn't we take a very different approach to trading signals from a block that renders in 2 seconds as opposed to a block that renders in 30 minutes?
This indicator provides the best of both worlds, enabling us to correlate the passing of time with price movement and clearly see when squeezes and breakouts occur.
As the indicator turns up to green we can see that volatility is on the move and the market is accelerating (breakout), and as it turns down to red the market is stagnating (squeeze). There is also an alternate 'Precise' view which renders the exact time per block for more granular analysis.
Moving Average Squeeze %A new indicator for you guys to try out, it measured the squeeze % of several MA's and combines them in a super trend-% (where 0 is low squeeze and 100% is where all MA's are crossing on same price)
You can use different period lengths and enable the composite-% for display if you want to see all the data that makes up the super trend.
The indicator uses the 10, 20, 50, 100, and 200 SMA.
Squeeze Momentum Indicator [LazyBear] vHMAThis is a remake of the famous LazyBear Indicator, the Squeeze Momentum Indicator.
All i did was take out the SMA's and replace them with HMA's. HMA is a more responsive moving average.
Hull Moving Average.
This is a derivative of John Carter's "TTM Squeeze" volatility indicator, as discussed in his book "Mastering the Trade" (chapter 11).
Black crosses on the midline show that the market just entered a squeeze ( Bollinger Bands are with in Keltner Channel). This signifies low volatility , market preparing itself for an explosive move (up or down). Gray crosses signify "Squeeze release".
Mr.Carter suggests waiting till the first gray after a black cross, and taking a position in the direction of the momentum (for ex., if momentum value is above zero, go long). Exit the position when the momentum changes (increase or decrease --- signified by a color change). My (limited) experience with this shows, an additional indicator like ADX / WaveTrend, is needed to not miss good entry points. Also, Mr.Carter uses simple momentum indicator , while I have used a different method (linreg based) to plot the histogram.

Here is the original version:
GRAB or TrendStrength Bars with Highlights[Salty]GRAB or TrendStrength Bars with Propulsion Dots and Highlights for Squeeze Pro, CCI-Arrows, and SlowStoch
This indicator shows GRAB or TrendStrength candles and allows several moving averages to be displayed at the same time.
It has arrows and diamonds above or below the candles to show CCI values above 100 or below -100 with the arrow pointing in the direction of the momentum.
Diamonds indicate slightly weaker momentum than arrows, but still consider strong.
It has background coloring that is light green to show bullish trends and light red to show bearish trends that are derived from slow stochastics.
In general Darker colors are used for down moves and lighter colors are use to show up moves. Also, red indicates bearish, and green indicates bullish throughout.
It has yellow background to show squeezes with additional Squeeze Pro information shown at the bottom of the chart in the form of letters and momentum arrows.
L = Low compression squeeze, S = Normal Squeeze, and H = High Compression Squeeze.
It has a set of propulsion dots for each Moving Average. The trend is consider bullish when green colored dots print, and bearish when red dots print.
3 ATR Keltner channels are printed. The first two show the values used by the squeeze by default
2 Bolinger Bands are displayed based on the values used by the Squeeze by default.
1 VWAP line may be displayed.
TIP: overlaying the TICK symbol is great for confirming a bias where positive values are bullish and negative values are bearish.
(JS) Squeeze Pro OverlaysSo this was something I planned on doing in the future, I knew it would take some time to put together but here it is, the Squeeze Pro 2 Overlays.
On my original Squeeze Pro, I had made several overlay indicators to go along with it, this time my goal was to combine all that stuff into a single indicator and allow the user to turn on and off the specific features they'd prefer to use. The version illustrated in the preview has everything turned on. What is "everything"? Here's the breakdown...
First of all - the color schemes in the Squeeze Pro match the color schemes in the Overlays indicator, so you can match them up (Color Scheme 3 in example). There are 6 schemes, option 1 is the original Squeeze colors.
There's also an option to make the light squeeze black, rather than white. This is for people who aren't using Dark Mode. It will flip all white to black, to make your charts better to read!
So there are 4 main overlays that can be switched on and off with this indicator, they include;
1. Early Signal Candles
2. BBMA Basis Line
3. Bollinger Bands/Keltner Channel Breaches
4. Signal Arrows
Early Signal Candles
The Early Signal Candles have two parameters, the entry smoothing period and the exit smoothing period.
There is a different type of early entry signal for each type of squeeze.
Low Squeeze generates white dots on the highs of the candles.
Mid Squeeze generates a lime green candle (or purple candle in color scheme 3).
High Squeeze generates a bigger purple circle on the high of the candle.
These three signals are made to mimic the original Early In/Out Candles from John Carter and represent the same thing (they work the same way).
As for the early exit, that would be determined by the color of the candle vs the color of the squeeze, works the same way as the original as well.
BBMA Basis Line
The BBMA (Bollinger Bands Momentum Average) was a moving average I had made to use with the squeeze on the previous version.
It is the basis line of the BB and KC used to make up the Squeeze (a 20 SMA). There are 4 different colors to it on this version.
1. Orange - This means no squeeze.
2. White/Black - Low Squeeze
3. Red - Mid Squeeze
4. Yellow - High Squeeze
You'll also notice these colors are light and dark in different spots - this is a representation of whether the Bollinger Bands are expanding or contracting. Dark means expanding, light means contracting.
Bollinger Bands/Keltner Channel Breaches
This is a pretty simple feature. If there is an ongoing squeeze, and a candle closes above or below the Bollinger Bands or Keltner Channels, a circle appears at the top or the bottom of the chart telling you which way the channel has been breached.
Signal Arrows
This is what makes up most of the overlay indicator. If you turn it on, the default is set to work just like the original. There are lots of options with this though.
First, you can turn each type of Squeeze Arrow on or off by checking/unchecking the boxes for them.
Now allow me to explain the "Signal Length", as there are several options.
The default is "6 Dots", this generates a signal when a particular type of Squeeze reaches the 6th dot ("12 Dots" works the same way).
"End of Squeeze" generates a signal once a type of Squeeze has concluded.
"End of Early Signal" generates a signal when the early dots (or candle) finishes.
"Custom" allows you to select your own dot duration to produce a signal, you select that number in the field below.
The other portion of this is the "Signal Type", this is where you select how each signal is generated once the selected amount of time takes place.
The default is the same as the original "+/-", this generates a signal based on whether Squeeze momentum is positive or negative.
"Rising/Falling" will only generate a signal if the Squeeze momentum maintains consistently over the last 6 bars.
"Crossed Zero" only generates a signal if the Squeeze momentum crosses above or below the zero line.
"Basis Line Momentum" is based on the BBMA. A signal is generated based on whether the current candle closes above or below the basis line.
"Divergence" only generates a signal if there is a divergence signal present at the time of the signal.
"Current Momentum" generates a signal based simply on the current direction of Squeeze momentum.
"Sum of Change" generates a signal based on the sum of the change in the Squeeze momentum being positive (long) or negative (short) over the length of time you select in the "Sum of Change Length" field.
Then "Combo" tries to take a look at everything and generates a score based on these parameters. Positive score = long, negative = short.
I hope I gave a detailed enough explanation on how everything works, let me know if you have any questions! Hope you like it!
Keltner | Bollinger | SqueezePercent B (%B), it's derivation Percent K (%K) and squeeze indicator combined in one.
blue line = bollinger %
orange line = keltner %
red background = squeeze*
squeeze = bollinger bands are inside (encapsulated by) keltner channel
(JS) Squeeze Pro 2This is my version of the updated classic indicator created by John Carter. I plan on adding a Squeeze Overlay script in the future that will pair with this one as well for additional signals.
So to break down the Squeeze, what it is, how it works, etc - you have to look at the components that make it up.
1. Bollinger Bands
2. Keltner Channels
3. Momentum
The momentum in this indicator is smoothed out using linear regression (shout out to Lazy Bear, it's a much simpler way to do it, imo).
The momentum is what is displayed on the indicator as a histogram, its purpose is obvious (to show momentum).
Now what is a Squeeze? A squeeze occurs when Bollinger Bands tighten up enough to slip inside of Keltner Channels.
This is interpreted as price is compressing and building up energy before releasing it and making a big move.
Traditionally, John Carter's version uses 20 period SMAs as the basis lines on both the BB and the KC.
In my version, I've given the freedom to change this and try out different types of moving averages.
His original squeeze indicator had one Squeeze setting, though this new one has three .
The white dot Squeeze , call it a "low squeeze", an "early squeeze", whatever you'd like - this is the easiest Squeeze to form based on its settings.
The red dot Squeeze is the original from the first Squeeze indicator.
And finally, the yellow dot squeeze , call it a "high squeeze", "power squeeze", once again whatever you want - is the most difficult to form and suggests price is under extreme levels of compression.
From what I've witnessed John Carter say in the past, the squeeze is meant to be used for continuation.
Now to explain the parameters:
Squeeze Input - This is just the source for the Squeeze to use, default value is closing price.
Length - This is the length of time used to calculate the Bollinger Bands and Keltner Channels.
Bollinger Bands Calculation Type - Selects the type of moving average used to create the Bollinger Bands.
Keltner Channel Calculation Type - Selects the type of moving average used to create the Keltner Channel.
Color Format - I have created 5 different color schemes, this allows you to choose one.
Draw Divergence - Self explanatory here, this will auto-draw divergence on the indicator.
Gray Background for Dark Mode - This is something I put on all my indicators to make them more visually appealing.
Moving on to the alerts, I have made some basic alerts to notify certain indicator conditions (I had to revise it back from the prior version, as V4 of PineScript limits outputs).
6th Dot Alerts - This will inform you when a certain Squeeze makes it 6 dots in. Why 6 dots? That is what John Carter said to be his preference.
12th Dot Alerts - Think of this as a "prolonged Squeeze" alert. I feel like if they do run this long you likely need to go up in resolution, but some traders prefer certain time increments so this is for them.
End of Squeeze Alerts - Self explanatory again - once a Squeeze has concluded this will provide you with a notification.
Start of Squeeze Alerts - Opposite of the alert above, notifications come when a Squeeze begins.
Zero Line Alerts - This will inform you of when the momentum makes a bullish or bearish move across the zero line.
I hope that I've done well enough explaining the indicator and how it works, for any further information on it I suggest you check out Simpler Trading and get linked up with John Carter over there.
He does lots of videos, webinars, and of course you can always get the official indicator and his signals there too.

Thanks to Lazy Bear for coding Squeeze Momentum Indicator
Hancock - WAEThis is a version of the LazyBear Waddah Attar Explosion indicator that incorporates the LazyBear Squeeze Momentum Indicator. Full credit goes to LazyBear for this and i've added links to his indicators used for a further explanation.
This histogram is a plot of the difference between the current and previous MACD multiplier by the sensitivity value. Green indicates an up trend and red indicates a down trend.
The white line is the lower BB subtracted from the upper BB and signals should be taken when the histogram is greater than this line.
The blue line is taken from the Squeeze Indicator and is the Keltner Channel. If the white line is less than the blue line it can be considered a squeeze and the background color of the indicator is coloured to indicate when not in a squeeze.
Happy trading folks!
Hancock
R100 Volatility Combo Bands v1 (*v*)The Volatility Combo Bands are made from 4 separate volatility bands- two Bollinger Bands (10 and 20 period) and two Price Headley Acceleration Bands (10 and 20 period). The Volatility Combo Bands plot the innermost upper and lower points from these bands and then plots a mid-line. By default, only the standard 20 period Bollinger Bands and Combo Bands with mid-line are displayed, but can be configured however you want.
Try it out- see squeezes earlier, ride the bands earlier in trending markets, trade pullbacks to the Combo Bands and mid-line, trade the range of the band or use them to help identify potential support and resistance levels. Hopefully they can add another dimension to identifying volatility contraction patterns or whatever you currently use these things for!
I hope you get some value out of it. Only conditions of use are that if you improve it, let me know and if you publish something that uses it, don't hide the code! Enjoy!
Code for the Price Headley Acceleration Bands pinched and modified from LazyBear - thankyou.
Dependent Variable Odd Generator Risk Detector
In fact, I wrote this script for detect Bollinger and Linear Regression Bands squeeze.
It's a side script.
Logic works like this:
Only the stagnant market probability is drawn from the Bollinger bandwidth by Dependent Variable Odd Generator and MFI index is calculated taking into account the volume.
This value ranges from 0 to 100.
To be sure, this value is averaged over a small period.
If you break the average and exceed 50, the bollinger band is too narrow and the risk is too high.
This means more commissions, more transactions, and vain work.
Or, when in position, the warning is not ignored due to unnecessary signals.
This code is open source under the MIT license. If you have any improvements or corrections to suggest, please send me a pull request via the github repository github.com
Stay tuned , best regards.
MS MONEY CCI SQUEEZEAbout
I have used this indicator to find many lucrative opportunities. This indicator takes the moving average of CCI in custom, volatility-specific conditions. CCI measures "overbought" in the red-shaded region and "Oversold" in the green-shaded region. The shaded regions do not constitute a buy/sell signal alone, the MS CCI Squeeze is best used when market conditions agree and is best used when the user has fundamental reasoning for "reversal-like" situations to align. The MS CCI Squeeze will soon have a synergistic partner called "MS RSI Squeeze" indicator that will look similar to help better measure volatility and strength trend.
About the Commodity Channel Index (CCI)
The commodity channel index (CCI) is an oscillator originally introduced by Donald Lambert in 1980. Since its introduction, the indicator has grown in popularity and is now a very common tool for traders in identifying cyclical trends not only in commodities, but also equities (stocks) and currency trading.
How to set an Alert
If the user wants to set an alert , click on one of the support/ resistance lines (black-dashed) near the zero mark. Clicking on the horizontal line above or below the zero line will populate a yellow arrow which will allow you to set alerts when wanted.
Please Read For Better Efficiency
When using this indicator, keep an eye out for harmonic patterns, both bullish and bearish head and shoulders patterns for "HIDDEN" breakout opportunities.
Please like, follow and share and I will continue building better indicators.
Squeeze [LazyBear] w Murat ColorsOriginal by @LazyBear
Differents:
scolor => white & black
plot histogram => linewidth=5
plot style => circles, linewidth => 4, transp => 0
Function : Linear Regression Bands
Used with Pearson Correlation. It can be used to make sense of the trends. Very successful results can be obtained with a MACD style indicator and volume indicator that gives Buy and Sell orders.Open for adaptive and mutable variable periods of moving averages. Best regards!
Squeeze Momentum Indicator ModThis is a scaled version of LazyBear's Squeeze Momentum Indicator. Also added are fibo-based periods for BB and KC.
TTM Squeeze Scanner This script scans for TTM Squeezes for the crypto symbols included in the body of the script. The timeframe for the squeeze scan is controlled within the input not the chart.
This script is a merge of @Nico.Muselle's TTM Squeeze script and @QuantNomad's custom screener script. Thanks to both of them!
Function : Bollinger Bands and BBW Squeeze DetectorThis script shows Bollinger Bands function and want to detect Bollinger Band Width Squeeze with a successful, different perspective .
Bollinger Bands : You can specify the Bollinger Bands periods as mutable variables .
Bollinger Band Width Squeeze : First the Bollinger bands width was calculated.The width was then divided into levels using the money flow index.
Thus, the bollinger takes into account the available volume averages when calculating the band width mfi (Money Flow Index).
After this modelling, we can limit and color the lower limit and upper limits just as Relative Strength Index.
We can even put warnings on oversold areas if desired. Let's not forget that we are working with width rather than price.
By design, squeeze areas are defined directly above the Bollinger Bands with coloration. I think it is very practical and looks stylish.
I tried and found it quite successful and wanted to share it with users.
I came up with many ideas when I wrote this system, and I will share them very soon . I hope it will be useful to users and give new ideas.
Best regards.
Fast Squeeze For Bollinger BandsUse with bollinger bands, it highlights more recent price range.
Wen price action tightens it will change color from green to orange and then red.
This indicator uses a low timeframe and shows the upcoming mini-squeezes much faster and visually fits into bbands.
