Reverse Keltner Channel StrategyReverse Keltner Channel Strategy
Overview
The Reverse Keltner Channel Strategy is a mean-reversion trading system that capitalizes on price movements between Keltner Channels. Unlike traditional Keltner Channel strategies that trade breakouts, this system takes the contrarian approach by entering positions when price returns to the channel after overextending.
Strategy Logic
Long Entry Conditions:
Price crosses above the lower Keltner Channel from below
This signals a potential reversal after an oversold condition
Position is entered at market price upon signal confirmation
Long Exit Conditions:
Take Profit: Price reaches the upper Keltner Channel
Stop Loss: Placed at half the channel width below entry price
Short Entry Conditions:
Price crosses below the upper Keltner Channel from above
This signals a potential reversal after an overbought condition
Position is entered at market price upon signal confirmation
Short Exit Conditions:
Take Profit: Price reaches the lower Keltner Channel
Stop Loss: Placed at half the channel width above entry price
Key Features
Mean Reversion Approach: Takes advantage of price tendency to return to mean after extreme moves
Adaptive Stop Loss: Stop loss dynamically adjusts based on market volatility via ATR
Visual Signals: Entry points clearly marked with directional triangles
Fully Customizable: All parameters can be adjusted to fit various market conditions
Customizable Parameters
Keltner EMA Length: Controls the responsiveness of the channel (default: 20)
ATR Multiplier: Determines channel width/sensitivity (default: 2.0)
ATR Length: Affects volatility calculation period (default: 10)
Stop Loss Factor: Adjusts risk management aggressiveness (default: 0.5)
Best Used On
This strategy performs well on:
Currency pairs with defined ranging behavior
Commodities that show cyclical price movements
Higher timeframes (4H, Daily) for more reliable signals
Markets with moderate volatility
Risk Management
The built-in stop loss mechanism automatically adjusts to market conditions by calculating position risk relative to the current channel width. This approach ensures that risk remains proportional to potential reward across varying market conditions.
Notes for Optimization
Consider adjusting the EMA length and ATR multiplier based on the specific asset and timeframe:
Lower values increase sensitivity and generate more signals
Higher values produce fewer but potentially more reliable signals
As with any trading strategy, thorough backtesting is recommended before live implementation.
Past performance is not indicative of future results. Always practice sound risk management.

ATR Bands (Keltner Channel), Wick and SRSI Signals [MW]Introduction
This indicator uses a novel combination of ATR Bands, candle wicks crossing the ATR upper and lower bands, and baseline, and combines them with the Stochastic SRSI oscillator to provide early BUY and SELL signals in uptrends, downtrends, and in ranging price conditions.
How it’s unique
People generally understand Bollinger Bands and Keltner Channels. Buy at the bottom band, sell at the top band. However, because the bands themselves are not static, impulsive moves can render them useless. People also generally understand wicks. Candles with large wicks can represent a change in pattern, or volatile price movement. Combining those two to determine if price is reaching a pivot point is relatively novel. When Stochastic RSI (SRSI) filtering is also added, it becomes a genuinely unique combination that can be used to determine trade entries and exits.
What’s the benefit
The benefit of the indicator is that it can help potentially identify pivots WHEN THEY HAPPEN, and with potentially minimal retracement, depending on the trader’s time window. Many indicators wait for a trend to be established, or wait for a breakout to occur, or have to wait for some form of confirmation. In the interpretation used by this indicator, bands, wicks, and SRSI cycles provide both the signal and confirmation.
It takes into account 3 elements:
Price approaching the upper or lower band or the baseline - MEANING: Price is becoming extended based on calculations that use the candle trading range.
A candle wick of a defined proportion (e.g. wick is 1/2 the size of a full candle OR candle body) crosses a band or baseline, but the body does not cross the band or baseline - MEANING: Buyers and sellers are both very active.
The Stochastic RSI reading is above 80 for SELL signals and below 20 for BUY signals - MEANING: Additional confirmation that price is becoming extended based on the current cyclic price pattern.
How to Use
SIGNALS
Buy Signals - Green(ish):
B Signal - Potential pivot up from the lower band when using the preferred multiplier
B1 Signal - Potential pivot up from the lower band when using phi * multiplier
B2 Signal - Potential pivot up from the lower band when using 1/2 * multiplier
B3 Signal - Potential pivot up from baseline
Sell Signals - Red(ish):
S Signal - Potential pivot down from the upper band when using the preferred multiplier
S1 Signal - Potential pivot down from the upper band when using
S2 Signal - Potential pivot down from the upper band when using 1/2 * multiplier
S3 Signal - Potential pivot down from the baseline
DISCUSSION
During an uptrend or downtrend, signals from the baseline can help traders identify areas where they may enter the trending move with the least amount of drawdown. In both cases, entry points can occur with baseline signals in the direction of the trend.
For example, in an uptrend (when the price is forming higher highs and higher lows, or when the baseline is rising), price tends to oscillate between the upper band and baseline. In this case, the baseline BUY signal (B3) can show an entry point.
In a downtrend (when the price is forming lower highs and lower lows, or when the baseline is falling), price tends to oscillate between the baseline and the lower band. In this case, the baseline SELL signal (S3) can show an entry point.
During consolidation, when price is ranging, price tends to oscillate between the upper and lower bands, while crossing through the baseline unperturbed. Here, entry points can occur at the upper and lower bands.
When all conditions are met at the lower band during consolidation, a BUY signal (B), can occur. This signal may also occur prior to a break out of consolidation to the upside.
When all conditions are met at the upper band during consolidation, a SELL signal (S), can occur. This signal may also occur prior to a break out of consolidation to the downside.
Additional B1, B2, and S1, and S2 signals can be displayed that use the bands based on a multiplier that is half that of the primary one, and phi (0.618) times the primary multiplier as a way to quickly check for signals occurring along different, but related, bands.
Calculations
ATR Bands, or Keltner Channels, are a technical analysis tool that are used to measure market volatility and identify overbought or oversold conditions in the trading of financial instruments, such as stocks, bonds, commodities, and currencies. ATR Bands consist of three lines plotted on a price chart:
Middle Band, Basis, or Baseline: This is typically a simple moving average (SMA) of the closing prices over a certain period. It represents the intermediate-term trend of the asset's price.
Upper Band: This is calculated by adding a certain number of ATRs to the middle band (SMA). The upper band adjusts itself with the increase in volatility.
Lower Band: This is calculated by subtracting the same number of ATRs from the middle band (SMA). Like the upper band, the lower band adjusts to changes in volatility.
The candle wick signals occur if the wick is at the specified ratio compared to either the entire candle or the candle body. The upper band, lower band, and baseline signals happen if the wick is the specified ratio of the total candle size. For the major signals for upper and lower bands, these occur when the wick extends outside of the bands while closing a candle inside of the bands. For the baseline signals, they occur if a wick crosses a baseline but closes on the other side.

Other Usage Notes and Limitations
To understand future price movement, this indicator assumes that 3 things must be known:
Evidence of a change of market structure. This can be demonstrated by increased volatility, consolidation, volume spikes (which can be tracked with the MW Volume Impulse Indicator) or, in the case of this indicator, candle wicks.
The potential cause of the change. It could be a VWAP line (which can be tracked with the Multi VWAP , and Multi VWAP from Gaps indicators), an event, an important support or resistance level, a key moving average, or many other things. This indicator assumes the ATR bands can be a cause.
The current position in the price cycle. Oscillators like the RSI, and MACD, are typical measures of price oscillation (other oscillators like the Price and Volume Stochastic Divergence indicator can also be useful). This indicator uses the Stochastic RSI oscillator to determine overbought and oversold conditions.
When evidence of the change appears, and the potential cause of the change is identified, and the price oscillation is at a favorable position for the desired trading direction, this indicator will generate a signal.
ATR Bands (or Keltner Channels) are used to determine when price might “revert to the mean”. Crossing, or being near the upper or lower band, can indicate an overbought or oversold condition, which could lead to a price reversal. By tracking the behavior of candle wicks during these events, we can see how active the battle is between buyers and sellers.
If the top of a wick is large, it may indicate that sellers are aggressively attempting to bring the price down. Conversely, if the bottom wick is large, it can indicate that buyers are actively trying to counter the price action caused by selling pressure.
When this wicking action occurs at times when price is not near the upper band, lower band, or baseline, it could indicate the presence of an important level. That could mean a nearby VWAP line, a supply or demand zone, a round price number, or a number of other factors. In any case, this wick may be the first indication of a price reversal.
Shorter baseline periods may be better for short period trading like scalping or day trading, while longer period baselines can show signals that are better suited to swing trading, or longer term investing.
It's important for traders to be aware of the limitations of any indicator and to use them as part of a broader, well-rounded trading strategy that includes risk management, fundamental analysis, and other tools that can help with reducing false signals, determining trend direction, and providing additional confirmation for a trade decision. Diversifying strategies and not relying solely on one type of indicator or analysis can help mitigate some of these risks.
The TradingView platform allows a maximum of 500 labels per chart. This means that if your settings allow for a lot of signals, labels for earlier ones may not appear if the total number of labels exceeds 500 for the chart.
Williams %R + Keltner chanells - indicator (AS)1)INDICATOR ---This indicator is a combination of Keltner channels and Williams %R.
It measures trend using these two indicators.
When Williams %R is overbought(above upper line (default=-20)) and Keltner lower line is below price indicator shows uptrend (green).
When Williams %R is oversold(below lower line (default=-80)) and Keltner upper line is above price indicator shows downtrend (red) .
Can be turned into a strategy quickly.
2) CALCULATIONS:
Keltner basis is a choosen type of moving average and upper line is basis + (ATR*multiplier). Same with lower but minus instead of plus so basiss – (ATR*multiplier)

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.
[kai]Keltner&BolingerIt is an indicator that simultaneously displays the Bollinger Bands (BB) and Keltner Channel (KC) calculated for the log scale.
* If you need the normal scale version, please turn off the log mode in the settings.
I think the usage is the same as normal BB and KC.
From here, it ’s an original way of thinking.
I thought about countermeasures for the phenomenon that the BB contracts (squeezes) and breaks, but for some reason it suddenly reverses and breaks greatly in the opposite direction or ends in misfire.
The main part of this Inge is KC, and I think that the range within KC is the range.
Considering that the bar broke above and below the range of KC and broke, the trend market started.
BB fits in KC and judges that the trend is game over
If it is within KC, it is contrarian at the upper and lower limits of KC.
If it breaks, Trend following
Profit if BB fits in KC
I'm thinking about how to use it
ログスケール用にログ計算したボリンジャーバンド（BB）とケルトナーチャンネル（KC）を同時に表示するインジケーターです
※通常スケール版が必要な時は設定のlog modeをOFFにしてください
使い方は普通のBBとKCとおなじで使用方法で良いと思います
ここからはオリジナルな使い方の考え方です
BBが収縮（スクイーズ）してブレイクしたのに何故か突然反転して反対の方に大きくブレイクしたり、不発に終わったりする現象の対策を考えました
このインジのメインはKCでKCの範囲内はレンジと考えます
KCの範囲外にバーが上抜け、下抜けして、ブレイクしたと考え、トレンド相場スタートとします
BBがKCの中に納まってトレンド終了と判定します
KC内の場合はKCの上限、下限で逆張り
ブレイクした場合は順張り
BBがKCの中に納まったら利確
という感じの使い方を考えています
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.

Williams Vix Fix BB + RVI + LinReg & Squeeze (Keltner) BBW + %BLegend:
Entery signal: When line color turns to lime (lighter green) after a blue dot appears
Exit signal: When line color turns to red (darker red) after a red dot appears
Note: it is more affective as an entry signal (Bottom is stronger)
- When line touches or crosses red band it is Top signal (Williams Vix Fix)
- When line touches or crosses blue band it is Bottom signal (Williams Vix Fix)
- Red dot at the top of indicator is a Top signal (Relative Volatility Index)
- Blue dot at the top of indicator is a Bottom signal (Relative Volatility Index)
- Gray dot at the bottom of indicator is a Keltner Squeeze signal (filtered by either BBW or %B)
- Silver dot at the bottom of indicator is a weaker Keltner Squeeze signal (Doesn't meet either BBW or %B filter)
- Purple is a 'Half Squeeze' only 1 Bollinger Band crossed the Keltner Channel
This is an attempt to make use of the main features of all 6 of these Volatility tools:
- Williams Vix Fix + Bollinger Bands
- Relative Volatility Index (RVI)
- Linear Regression (detects Vix Fix starts to rise or fall to a certain degree in order to help validate bottom/top)
Note : There is also added precision on Linear Regression entry by dividing WVF by square roots of basis.
- The crossing of Keltner Channel by the Bollinger Bands (Squeeze)
Conditions to Help Filter Keltner Squeeze:
- When the Bollinger Bands Width (BBW) value is lower than the lowest value within a period plus a margin of error (percentage)
- When the %B value goes up or down by the impulse value (threshold value in setting) detailed in LazyBears indicator. (www.tradingview.com)
If it meets one of these 2 filters and there is a Keltner Channel Squeeze than gray color or else if the squeeze doesn’t meet one of the 2 filters than silver color (weaker Squeeze).
The goal is to find the best tool to find bottoms and top relative to volatility and filter squeeze.
Note: You can also change the threshold for RVI top and bottom.
And this work builds on my last indicators:
- Williams Vix Fix + BB & RVI (Top/Bottom) & Squeeze ()
- Williams Vix Fix BB + RVI & Squeeze (Keltner) filtered BBW + %B ()
If you have ideas on this work or have ideas on potential combinations please message me, I always want to learn or get perspective on how it can be improved.
Sharing is how we get better (Parameter tuning, ideas, discussion)

Donchian and Keltner Channels Trend Following with Trailing StopLong Only Trend-following model based on Keltner Channels and Donchian Channels.
These indicators include a noise region, which allows prices to oscillate without requiring position adjustments.
When price trades above the upper band, it signals strength; when it trades below the lower band, it signals weakness.
Keltner Channels
Keltner Channels are volatility-based envelopes set above and below an exponential moving average. Keltner Channels use the Average True Range (ATR), which measures daily volatility, to set channel distance.
Donchian Channel
Donchian Channels are are used to identify market trends and volatility. The upper and lower bands are based on the highest high and lowest low of a specified period. When the price moves above the upper band, it indicates a bullish breakout, while a
move below the lower band indicates a bearish breakout. The distance between the upper and lower channel of the Donchian Channel indicates the asset’s volatility.
Trend Following Model
The default settings are:
Upper Keltner and Upper Donchian Channel Length : 20
Lower Keltner and Lower Donchian Channel Length : 40
Keltner ATR Multiplier: 2
Entries, Exits and Trailing Stop
Entry : When price exceeds the upper band of at least one of these indicators.
Exit : When price undercuts the lower band of at least one of these indicators.
Trailing Stop : See below.
Trailing Stop
This is a stop-loss order that moves with the price of the underlying. It is designed to “trail” the price up (in the case of a long position) or down (for a short position), locking in profits as the price moves in a favorable direction.
At the end of day t, there was a Trailing Stop level in place. For the next day (day t + 1), the Trailing Stop will be adjusted. The new Trailing Stop will be the higher of two values:
The Trailing Stop from the previous day (day t).
The Lower Band computed at the end of day t + 1.
ZLMA Keltner ChannelThe ZLMA Keltner Channel uses a Zero-Lag Moving Average (ZLMA) as the centerline with ATR-based bands to track trends and volatility.
The ZLMA’s reduced lag enhances responsiveness for breakouts and reversals, i.e. it's more sensitive to pivots and trend reversals.
Unlike Bollinger Bands, which use standard deviation and are more sensitive to price spikes, this uses ATR for smoother volatility measurement.
Background:
Built on John Ehlers’ lag-reduction techniques, this indicator adapts the classic Keltner Channel for dynamic markets. It excels in trending (low-entropy) markets for breakouts and range-bound (high-entropy) markets for reversals.
How to Read:
ZLMA (Blue): Tracks price trends. Above = bullish, below = bearish.
Upper Band (Green): ZLMA + (Multiplier × ATR). Cross above signals breakout or overbought.
Lower Band (Red): ZLMA - (Multiplier × ATR). Cross below signals breakout or oversold.
Channel Fill (Gray): Shows volatility. Narrow = low volatility, wide = high volatility.
Signals (Optional): Enable to show “Buy” (green) on upper band crossovers, “Sell” (red) on lower band crossunders.
Strategies: Trade breakouts in trending markets, reversals in ranges, or use bands as trailing stops.
Settings:
ZLMA Period (20): Adjusts centerline responsiveness.
ATR Period (20): Sets volatility period.
Multiplier (2.0): Controls band width.
If you are still confused between the ZLMA Keltner Channels and Bollinger Bands:
Keltner Channel (ZLMA): Uses ATR for bands, which smooths volatility and is less reactive to sudden price spikes. The ZLMA centerline reduces lag for faster trend detection.
Bollinger Bands: Uses standard deviation for bands, making them more sensitive to price volatility and prone to wider swings in high-entropy markets. Typically uses an SMA centerline, which lags more than ZLMA.
Squeeze Range: Bollinger Bands / Keltner Channels [Whvntr]Presenting Squeeze Range: Bollinger Bands / Keltner Channels
TTMSqueeze method is a volatility and momentum indicator introduced by John Carter of Simpler Trading, which capitalizes on the tendency for price to break out strongly after consolidating in a tight trading range.
How did I make this indicator? The Bollinger Bands & Keltner Channels base scripts are from the standard indicators of their class in the Technicals section... I made this indicator first then noticed there were 3 others with a similar concept, but this differs in it's unique features and application of the TTMSqueeze strategy. This indicator plots the True Range of the Keltner Channel (Customizable in 'Bands Style" in the Inputs Menu) the instances the Bollinger Bands are within the range of the Keltner channel (the market just entered a squeeze).
Featuring: customizable Moving Averages
1. Exponential (Default for both BB & KC)
2. Simple
3. RMA (MA used in RSI )
Keltner channels have a multiplier of 2 & 3 on the Chart (3 being the outer).
How do I use this indicator? Once the teal dots are inside the solid red lines this would indicate that TTMperiod of low market volatility (the market is preparing itself for an explosive move up or down). Do some research and study how to use the TTMSqueeze method by John Carter. Disclaimer: not a guarantee of future favorable results.
Hull Keltner ChannelThis script is a Keltner Channel that uses a Hull Moving Average as source, instead of the 20-period EMA.
A hull band improves on lag and smoothness to Simple and Exponential Moving Averages.
And ATR based envelop is generated from this improved MA to form the Keltner Channel.
Hull on EHMA source with 180 periods loopback, coupled with a 200 period loopback for the Keltner Channel and 2 and 6 standard deviations, are my fav settings on Bitcoin, but feel free to try new settings.
Use it as you would use a normal Keltner Channel or Bollinger Bands.
Bollinger Band - Keltner Squeeze - Failed Volatility BreakoutThis simple script provides Bollinger Band and Keltner Channel indicators, and will highlight areas where the Bollinger Bands enter into the Keltner Channel.
This script is based on the Failed Volatility Breakout (FVBO) System used by professional trader ChrisD_Macro. The default plot styles for the indicators in this script are based on Chris's setup, but visual styles as well as BB and Kelt settings (length, standard deviation, etc...) can all be easily customized with the user interface in the indicator settings.
You can also choose whether you want the condition to be triggered by just one Bollinger Band entering the Keltner Channel, or if it has to be both bands entering the channel.
This script is very useful when manually back testing the FVBO strategy, as it clearly highlights the BB-Kelt squeezes instead of having to constantly scroll in and out looking for them.
It can also be useful live as it has the ability to trigger TradingView alerts using the condition "BB-Kelt Squeeze".
Hope it's helpful

Side Notes:
With Forex / Currencies this indicator I usually use this indicator on the 1 Day time frame.
Keep in mind that the script includes the Bollinger Bands and Keltner Channels, so if you already have your own version of these indicators on your chart, it will get really messy. (Just hide the other indicators while you get to know this one).
BB and Keltner SqueezeStrategy using the Bollinger band with the Keltner Channels . Watch for the Bollinger bands (blue/red lines) squeezing inside the Keltner Channels (pink dots) for a breakout - this could be up or down so use in conjunction with other indicators.
The blue band is the 2 standard deviation from price, the red is 3 standard deviations. With these, typically if the price bounces off the red then it will retrace a little, (although if there is a massive breakout/down this may not hold). When the bands narrow this is an indicator of consolidation, therefore with a likely upcoming breakup or down.
The pink dots are the Keltner Channels. The strategy says if the bollinger bands come inside the Keltner Channels then this is a strong indicator that the breakout is coming. Sometimes the length of time the squeeze occurs for is indicative of the length/strength of the breakout.
These indicators can be used on all timeframes but higher timeframes will be stronger and more reliable of a trend change.
Double Donchian, Double Keltner, no-overlayThis is rather an educational script on how you can put multiple channels on the chart in a relatively non-confusing manner. Because it can be done doesn't mean you should do it (especially as a beginner). However, you might want to use maybe two.
Normally, TradingView would put them all over each other causing chart to lose readability. By a few clever conditions, higher timeframe KC does draw on the chart only if it is outside lower timeframe KC. Lower timeframe Donchian is 99,5% outside both Keltner Channels, and it will not show if it overlaps at any point. Higher TF Donchian ale two lines but no background.
Keltner channel 1 uses original settings
Keltner channel 2 uses TradingView default settings
Donchian 1 uses TradingView default
Donchian 2 uses 60 periods used by Turtles if I remember it correct
Have a great trade!

First strategy
This System was created from the Book "How I Tripled My Money In The
Futures Market" by Ulf Jensen, Page 183. This is reverse type of strategies.
The strategy buys at market, if close price is higher than the previous close
during 2 days and the meaning of 9-days Stochastic Slow Oscillator is lower than 50.
The strategy sells at market, if close price is lower than the previous close price
during 2 days and the meaning of 9-days Stochastic Fast Oscillator is higher than 50.
Second strategy
The Keltner Channel, a classic indicator
of technical analysis developed by Chester Keltner in 1960.
The indicator is a bit like Bollinger Bands and Envelopes.
WARNING:
- For purpose educate only
- This script to change bars colors.
RSI with Keltner Channel (+EMA Ribbon)Note that the EMA Ribbon is not embedded into the custom RSI with KC. In the future I plan to embed it. The EMA Ribbon I use is the following:
This is my very first attempt at modifying an indicator. I basically attempted to add a Keltner Channel around RSI.
This was used as an alternative channel to the standard Bollinger Band. KC goes hand-in-hand with the EMA Ribbon. KC also helps to better pinpoint relative-overbought/oversold conditions.
In my belief, the 20-80 levels don't behave as overbought/oversold levels. An exponential chart would always be overbought. So a Keltner Channel could in theory (and in practice) give us greater understanding on chart analysis.
This custom indicator is a bodge . It has lots of extra calculations that can be removed. I post this rough indicator for the community to give feedback on how I can improve it, or perhaps give an idea to some of you. Please don't judge me, I wouldn't post it but lately some have asked me about it.
In the future I would like to embed an EMA ribbon in this RSI indicator, just like I did in the following idea.
During this period, I don't really have the time to fix this indicator to my standards. So I will leave it as is for the foreseeable future.
If you have the will and knowledge however, feel free to built upon this indicator and share it!
Tread lightly, for this is hallowed ground.

PS. In this indicator, I would replace all the moving averages with an EMA Ribbon "average".
Auto Keltner ChannelsThis version of Keltner Channels take measures the average volatility. By taking the 75th percentile of the average absolute value of the difference between the Source and the Mean divided by the True Range and using that as our multiplier for our Keltner Channels we can have a statistically safe trading zone. You notice that its dynamic, this is because it take into account the real volatility levels of a window and uses that to determine an appropriate multiplier. As always I hope you enjoy this release.
Bollinger bands and Keltner bands
█ OVERVIEW
This is a Bollinger band Script, with Keltner Channel Bands and for scalping.
█ CONCEPTS
1 — Bollinger Bands, The Bollinger band component is make out from two part, the standard component represented by a white cloud.
This is the 2nd deviation and 3rd deviation filled.
The second part linear weight
This is the 2nd deviation, and is filled from the 3rd deviation from the standard bands. This give the effect of cutting in and out to proved a support and resistance cloud.
2 — Keltner bands, this is the normal calculation, nothing special, by default this is off and can be turned back on in styles.
3 Deviations with ALMA as the Basis
3 — Non-traditional basis
Like with you can change the base moving average
but to a lesser extent.
option are:
sma = Simple Moving Average
ema = Exponential Moving Average
wma = Weighted Moving Average
vwma = Volume Weighted Moving Average
rma = Running Moving Average
alma = Arnaud Legoux Moving Average
hma = Hull Moving Average
█ OTHER SECTIONS
• LIMITATIONS: again this is base on moving average so there is a lag factor, the cloud do not work without volume so if the indicator can not pull volume data you are left with the standard bands.
• NOTE this is a trimmed version of still functions the same.
• THANKS: rumpypumpydumpy for the inspiration
BB and KeltnerStrategy using the Bollinger band with the Keltner Channels. Watch for the Bollinger bands (blue/red lines) squeezing inside the Keltner Channels (pink dots) for a breakout - this could be up or down so use in conjunction with other indicators.
Original Keltner with Support And ResistanceThis indicator is based on the original Keltner Channels using typical price and calculating the 10 period average of high - low
Typical price = (high + low + close)/3
In this case, I've taken Typical price as (open + high + low + close)/4 on the advice of John Bollinger from his book Bollinger on Bollinger Bands.
Buy Line = 10 Period Typical Price Average + 10 Period Average of (High - Low)
Sell Line = 10 Period Typical Price Average - 10 Period Average of (High - Low)
This is the basis for the indicator. I've added the highest of the Buy Line and lowest of the Sell Line for the same period which acts as Support and Resistance.
If price is trending below the Lowest of Sell Line, take only sell trades and the Lowest Line acts as resistance.
If price is trending above the Highest of Buy Line, take only buy trades and the Highest Line acts as support.
