What is Auto Bollinger Bands?
Auto Bollinger Bands plots the classic upper band, lower band and middle basis line on your main chart, with a subtle fill between the bands. The bands widen and tighten with volatility. There are no signal arrows. You read a basis cross, a band-touch reversion or a squeeze breakout straight from the bands themselves, and the dashboard shows which of the three setups the bands are tuned to.
On the chart
Upper and lower bands
The two volatility bands track the market as it expands and contracts.
Basis line
The middle line in gold gives a fast trend reference between the bands.
Band fill
A subtle fill between the bands keeps the whole envelope readable at a glance.
The bands are the signal
No arrows are drawn. You read a basis cross, a band-touch reversion or a squeeze breakout straight from the bands, and the dashboard shows which setup is in play.
Educational example
The indicator marks trend shifts, with entry and exit points shown as examples of how a trader may use the signal within their own strategy. It is not investment advice and is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold any financial instrument.
The dashboard
Always know it is working
A compact status indicator keeps you informed of the indicator's state at a glance, so you never wonder whether it is live.
The panel stays out of the way
A floating button hides and shows the dashboard on your chart, so it clears the view when you want the candles alone.
Min / max, not fixed values
Every input adjusts between a minimum and a maximum rather than a single fixed value, so the indicator can adapt while staying within your bounds.
The readout you asked for
The dashboard shows the period and deviation in use and which signal mode is active.
Adjustable inputs
| Input | Range |
|---|---|
| Period | 10 – 30 |
| Deviation | 1.0 – 3.0 |
Signal modes
The defaults are ready to go. These ranges just bound how far the indicator can adapt on the chart in front of it.
Questions
When volatility compresses, the bands tighten. A squeeze breakout marks the moment the bands start expanding again, a classic volatility-expansion signal.
