Sideways Strategy DMI + Bollinger Bands (by Coinrule)Markets don’t always trade in a clear direction. At a closer look, most of the time, they move sideways. Relying on trend-following strategies all the time can thus lead to repeated false signals in such conditions.
However, before you can safely trade sideways, you have to identify the most suitable market conditions.
The main features of such strategies are:
Short-term trades, with quick entries and quick exits
Slightly contrarian and mean-reversionary
Require some indicator that tells you it’s a sideways market
This Sideways DMI + Bollinger Bands strategy incorporates such features to bring you a profitable alternative when the regular trend-following systems stop working.
ENTRY
1. The trading system requires confirmation for a sideways market from the Directional Movement Index (DMI) before you can start opening any trades. For this purpose, the strategy uses the absolute difference between positive and negative DMI, which must be lower than 20.
2. To pick the right moment to buy, the strategy looks at the Bollinger Bands (BB). It enters the trade when the price crosses over the lower BB.
EXIT
The strategy then exits when the move has been exhausted. Generally, in sideways markets, the price should revert lower. The position is closed when the price crosses back down below the upper BB.
The best time frame for this strategy based on our backtest is the 1-hr. Shorter timeframes can also work well on certain coins that are more volatile and trade sideways more often. However, as expected, these exhibit larger volatility in their returns. In general, this approach suits medium timeframes. A trading fee of 0.1% is taken into account. The fee is aligned to the base fee applied on Binance, which is the largest cryptocurrency exchange.

ViVen-Multi Time Frame Bollinger Band StrategyThis indicator created to identify the strong Support and Resistance levels based on the Bollinger Bands. When two different time frame Bollinger Bands are travelling together then its a strong Support or Resistance Levels.
I have added 5 Min, 15 Min, 30 Min, 1 Hr and 1 Day time frame Bollinger Bands in one Chart. You can select and combine whichever the TF you want.
Default values considered - Period - 20 and Std.Dev is 2
You can on/off the indicator based on the requirement.
Trade plan:
BUY - When price comes near to the Bottom Bollinger Band level (look for candle confirmation is plus). If multiple Bollinger bands travels together then is Strong Support. (Exit if Price Breaks down the BB)
SELL - When price reaches the Upper Bollinger Band level (look for candle confirmation is plus). If multiple Bollinger bands travels together then is Strong Support. (Exit if Price Breaks Up the BB)
Middle Line - is the 20 SMA line
When the Gap between Upper and Lower Band is narrow then we can expect a trending movement soon.
Bollinger Bands And Aroon Scalping (by Coinrule)Many technical indicators can be profitable in certain market conditions while failing in others. No indicator is perfect alone.
All the best trading strategies involve multiple indicators and leverage the benefit of each of them. The following is an optimised strategy based on Bollinger Bands and the Aroon indicator.
The Bollinger Bands are among the most famous and widely used indicators. They can suggest when an asset is oversold or overbought in the short term, thus provide the best time for buying and selling it.
A strategy buying dips can work well during times of uptrend. Downtrends will result in a drawdown for the P&L of the strategy. The suggested approach minimises the drawdowns, ensuring that the system trades only when it's more likely to close the trade in profit.
The Setup
ENTRY
The price crosses below the basis line of the Bollinger Band indicator
The Aroon Indicator is above 90
EXIT
The price crosses below the upper Bollinger Band
The Aroon Indicator drops below 70
The Aroon Indicator plays a key role in this strategy. It acts as a confirmation that the asset is currently in an uptrend. On the other hand, it acts as a stop if market conditions deteriorate. The strategy uses an Aroon Indicator set to 288 periods to provide a longer-term view on market conditions, not being heavily dependent on short-term volatility.
The best time frame for this strategy based on our backtest is the 4-hr . The 1-hr can work well with three times more trades, on average. As trades increase, the profitability decreases. Yet again, this is the confirmation that trading more does not mean gaining more.
To make the results more realistic, the strategy assumes each order to trade 30% of the available capital. A trading fee of 0.1% is taken into account. The fee is aligned to the base fee applied on Binance, which is the largest cryptocurrency exchange.
Bollinger Bands Strategy [Alorse]This is a highly effective strategy that is based on going against the micro trend when the price exceeds the Bollinger bands by X percentage.
The percentage set by default to 30%, you can change it from the indicator settings.
You also have the option of enabling or disabling Short entries.
OGT Bollinger Bandwidth IndicatorWhat is the OGT Bollinger Bandwidth Indicator?
The Bollinger Bands indicator is one of the most popular technical trading indicators. One of the applications of the Bollinger Bands indicator is when an instrument is in a state of low/high volatility. The OGT Bollinger Bandwidth Indicator measures the percentage distance between the upper and lower Bollinger bands to visually display periods of low/high volatility.
The difference between this indicator and other bandwidth indicators, is that the user can define a percentage level where if the indicator reading is above that level the instrument is considered to be in high volatility. If the indicator reading is below this level, it's considered to be low volatility. This is visually displayed on the indicator (default - Red = low volatility / Green = high volatility).
How to select the right percentage level?
This indicator has a built in black line which shows the lowest indicator reading for the past 100 bars. This gives you insight on where you should be placing your percentage level for that instrument and time frame. You will need to adjust the percentage level when you select a new time frame as the Bollinger Band levels will be different.
How this Indicator can help you trade profitably?
As the saying goes - periods of low volatility is followed by period of high volatility. The OGT Bollinger Bandwidth Indicator allows instantly see and watch for periods of low volatility and capitalise when the tide turns. This is not a direction indicator but gives you an early warning sign that a big move is coming. Using other technical indicators such as moving averages / support and resistance can help you with the direction.

Khair - Day Trade StrategyBollinger band breakout with non-standard deviation along with profit targets
Best used when applied for intraday trading. Users can customize length and deviation and test what works best for them.
Trade both long and shorts, the user also has the option to limit to long-only or both.
This strategy only works intraday interval, so it means when you try to apply it to day/week/month it won't apply.

Bollinger Band with RSI
Using combination bollinger band and RSI indicator as guide to predict price volatility and the best entry point. The strategy logic is pretty straightforward where we're interested with close price that touches the lower bollinger band ; there are only two scenarios that will happened after the price reaches the lower band; the price might rebound from the lower bollinger band or drop lower and continue downtrend. To confirm the price movement, we use a second indicator which is the RSI to further investigate the price trend. For example, if the price reaches the lower bollinger band but the RSI value is not in the oversold region, we can conclude that the price will go lower and continue downtrend. If the RSI value is in the oversold region, we can use this price area as our entry point.
Stop loss is necessary to avoid losing too much capital if the RSI value lingers too long in the oversold region.
Best take profit area is when the price rebound above the middle bollinger band area/upper bollinger band or when the RSI reaches overbought region; whichever comes first.
Long entry:
RSI < 30 & close price < lower bollinger band
Exit entry:
RSI > 70
Default stop loss: -25%
Beacon - Anthony Crudele's IndicatorBeacon uses the current volatility of the market based on your trading time frame to determine support and resistance levels, whether a trend is intact or ready to revert back in the range. One of the most difficult things I went through as a trader was determining whether we are in a trend day or if we are in grind up or grind down mode. I created Beacon to give me a simple look at the market to determine what type of environment we are in. I use Bollinger Bands (3 standard deviation) to determine the volatility cycle. Once the BB make peaks I took my Fibonacci Retracement tool and did a retracement from the peak high of the BB to the peak low. I use 70%, 50% and 30% for my support and resistance levels. I use those levels because I tested pretty much every percent level and those percentages averaged the highest performance on all tick charts and time charts. You can use Beacon on whatever time frame or tick chart you are trading on and it will determine that specific volatility cycle.
Bollinger Bands Pro : Hawk-Eye (by ImanPJN)Bollinger Bands Pro: Hawk Eye / is a professional version of the Bollinger Band Indicator that uses two bands instead of one. This is the second band I call the upper and lower middle band.
Sometimes you see that the candles are rejected from parts of the band and you do not know the real reason.
The real reason is the middle band, which is a secret line that we show you in Hawk eye and give you a professional and complete view of the trend and momentum of the trend.
This important line gives you the dynamic support and resistance points that were previously hidden from you.
The line also allows traders to pinpoint their entry and exit points, as well as notice that trend strengths or trend momentum are being lost.
Now we want to discuss the trading methods and strategies of this indicator, three main strategies that should be considered, the first is following the trend and the second is breaking the line And third is the Bollinger Bands divergences with the "BB %B" oscillator.
1 - Following the Trend :
You can follow the trend and when a good downtrend or uptrend is formed, enter the trade every time candles hits the middle band and bounces back and you can hold the position it until the middle band or baseline is broken .
2 - Breaking the Line :
When the middle band or baseline as our dynamic trend line is broken with a complete candlestick, we can close the trade or trade the reverse trend, but we recommend that you do not use trend reversal signals if you do not have enough skills.
3 - Bollinger Bands divergences :
We can also use the Bollinger Bands and the BB Percentage Index to find bullish and bullish divergence or overbought and oversold points. But it requires more mastery and research on both indicators

Sentinel Program - A Bollinger Band Strategy, with alertsThis script plots the Bollinger Bands and confirms entry and exits by using RSI values, Stoch, and ADX Curve. Works on any time-frame.
The scope of the script is to reduce the number of fake breakouts to prevent further declines when entering positions. Often times when using Bollinger bands, a close below the lower band presents a buying opportunity but there is further movent to the downside and vise versa when taking profits.
Entry Conditions
Prior candle low below lower band
RSI above 30
Stochastic crossover above 20
ADX curve greater than 25
Exit Conditions
Prior candle highw above upper band
RSI crosses below 70
Stochastic crossunder above 80
Each of the above values can be adjusted in the inputs menu to fine-tune your entry and exit positions.
Using COINBASE:ETHUSD we can see that the conditions have been met before plotting buy and sell signals.
I have added alerts to help identify possible entry and exits and from there I manually enter or exit / adjust stop-loss. For example, sometimes it will print a sell signal because stochastic crossed over but RSI is still rising so I will adjust a tighter stop-loss to capture further gain if they are there.
Test it out, adjust the settings to see if you can find better results, and let me know!
Bollinger Bands Strategy with Intraday Intensity IndexFor Educational Purposes. Results can differ on different markets and can fail at any time. Profit is not guaranteed.
This only works in a few markets and in certain situations. Changing the settings can give better or worse results for other markets.
This is a mean reversion strategy based on Bollinger Bands and the Intraday Intensity Index (a volume indicator). John Bollinger mentions that the Intraday Intensity Index can be used with Bollinger Bands and is one of the top indicators he recommends in his book. It seems he prefers it over the other volume indicators that he compares to for some reason. III looks a lot like Chaikin Money Flow but without the denominator in that calculation. On the default settings of the BBs, the III helps give off better entry signals. John Bollinger however is vague on how to use the BBs and it's hard to say if one should enter when it is below/above the bands or when the price crosses them. I find that with many indicators and strategies it's best to wait for a confirmation of some sort, in this case by waiting for some crossover of a band. Like most mean reversion strategies, the exit is very loose if using BBs alone. Usually the plan to exit is when the price finally reverts back to the mean or in this case the middle band. This can potentially lead to huge drawdowns and/or losses. Mean reversion strategies can have high win/loss ratios but can still end up unprofitable because of the huge losses that can occur. These drawdowns/losses that mean reversion strategies suffer from can potentially eat away at a large chunk of all that was previously made or perhaps up to all of it in the worst cases, can occur weeks or perhaps up to months after being profitable trading such a strategy, and will take a while and several trades to make it all back or keep a profitable track record. It is important to have a stop loss, trailing stop, or some sort of stop plan with these types of strategies. For this one, in addition to exiting the trade when price reverts to the middle band, I included a time-based stop plan that exits with a gain or with a loss to avoid potentially large losses, and to exit after only a few periods after taking the trade if in profit instead of waiting for the price to revert back to the mean.
Bollinger Bands Breakout StrategyBollinger Bands Breakout Strategy is the strategy version of Bollinger Bands Filter study version, which can be found under my scripts page. The strategy goes long when price closes above the upper band and goes short signal when price closes below the lower band.
Bollinger Bands is a classic indicator that uses a simple moving average of 20 periods, along with plots of upper and lower bands that are 2 standard deviations away from the basis line. These bands help visualize price volatility and trend based on where the price is, in relation to the bands.
The strategy doesn't take into account any other parameters such as Volume / RSI / Fundamentals etc, so user must use discretion based on confirmations from another indicator or based on fundamentals. The strategy results are based on purely long and short trades and doesn't take into account any user defined targets or stop losses.
The strategy works great when the price closes above/below upper/lower bands with continuation on next bar. It is definitely useful to have this strategy or the Bollinger Bands filter along with other indicators to get early glimpse of breach/fail of bands on candle close during BB squeeze or based on volatility .
This can be used on Heikin Ashi candles for spotting trends, but HA candles are not recommended for trade entries as they don't reflect true price of the asset.
The strategy settings default is 55 SMA and 1 standard deviation for Bollinger Bands filter, but these can be changed from settings.
It is definitely worth reading the 22 rules of Bollinger Bands written by John Bollinger if interested in trading Bollinger Bands successfully.
Bollinger Bands Technic + AlertReferred to the book "Bollinger on Bollinger Bands"
The best use of BB is to wait for squezze and breakout to capture the start of the trend.
Here the signal and target profit.
1. Long Signal when the close crosses above the upper BB and the Bandwidth of current bar exceeds 1.25 times of the previous bar (Volatility expands). : Green Triangle Up
2. Short Signal when the close crosses down the lower BB and the the Bandwidth of current bar exceeds 1.25 times of the previous bar (Volatility expands). : Red Triangle Down
3, Long TP when the upper BB turns down. : X cross Red
4. Short TP when the lower BB turns up. : X cross Purple
You can adjust any input of BB as well as how many times bandwidth changes from previous period.
I filter out the to high to buy signal by using ADX, if ADX over 50, the buy signal will be omitted.
As well as the TP signal , If the ADX is to low <35 , meaning it's has more room to go. the TP signal to be omitted.
Anyway , user can adjust all of this sensitivity.
As this is the trend following indicator, you will experience the bad signal during the sideways. That's life.
This is the semi discretionary system. You can use as a guideline along side with your other methods and money management.
Thank you!

Fibonacci Bollinger Bands Strategy [QuantNomad]This strategy is modified Stanard Bollinger Bands Strategy. Instead of using standard deviation, I use a metric of how big is the range for the last X bars. Also, I’m using Fibonacci levels as multipliers for BB.
In this strategy you have a choice of 3 different Trailing Stop Loss types:
Standard % – standard percent based TSL
Fibonacci Level – close your position on another Fibonacci level or basis line of BB.
Parabolic SAR – Parabolic SAR adapted as trailing stop loss.
For Standard % and Parabolic SAR, you can use the “TSL Offset” parameter to set an initial offset for trailing stop loss.
Parameters
BB Length – Bolinger Bands Length
Fib Entry Level – Entry BB Multiplier level. Can be one of Fibonacci levels: 0.236, 0.382, 0.5, 0.618, 0.786, 1.000
Trailing SL Type – Type of Trailing Stop Loss used to close positions. Can be one of 3 types: “Standard %”, “Fibonacci Level”, “Parabolic SAR”
TSL Offset (%) – Initial offset for TSL. Applicable to “Standard %” and “Parabolic SAR”
TSL Fib Level – Fibonacci level used for “Fibonacci level” type of TSL
TSL PSAR Start / Increment / Maximum – parameters for PSAR type of TSL.
Strategy side – you can choose the side of the strategy. You can require strategy to go only Long, Short to Both sides.
From/To Day/Month/Year – you can use these parameters to set backtesting range to check the performance of your strategy on a specific range

Bollinger Bands Strategy - CohenIndicator based on the “Prince of NY” strategy developed by Rodrigo Cohen .
It consists in the use of Bollinger Bands, combined with a coloring rule to indicate places of purchase and sale.
An entry signal is given when a candle close outside the band, where, if the next one closes inside, there is the entrance, looking for the MA or the other band.
Red candle - indicates a sell signal.
Green candle - indicates a buy signal.
