Auto Volatility Standard Deviation Levels for ThinkorSwim

@BenTen Is the second indicator mentioned in the video at 19:05, “ The Deviation Indicator” available on the site or stock on TOS? The narrator stated it goes side by side and hand in hand with the one posted in the thread. It is an indicator that measures high to low and low to high deviation.
Thanks.

@BenTen good afternoon ben, i am wondering if this indicator could be tweaked to just show 1 stnd dev, 2 stdn dev and 3 stnd dev! i tried looking at the code to modify it but i dont know what to change... thanks in advance!

Wondering is this is possible?

This is @BenTen indicator for auto volatility standard deviation bands from open, i was wondering if it can be modified to only show 1, 2, & 3 standard deviations from the open! thanks in advance, is it also possible to only show todays levels, not previous days?



# Volatility Based Standard Deviations
# Assembled by BenTen at UseThinkScript.com
# Converted from https://www.tradingview.com/script/...sed-Standarde-Deviation-and-Fib-Pivot-Points/

input aggregationPeriod = AggregationPeriod.DAY;
def SettlementPrice = close(period = aggregationPeriod)[1];
def VixClose = close("VIX", period = aggregationPeriod)[1];

def ZTable = 0.0625;
def SD = SettlementPrice * (VixClose / 100) * ZTable;

# Standard Deviation Calculation

plot usd1 = SettlementPrice + SD;
plot usd75 = SettlementPrice + (0.75 * SD);
plot usd5 = SettlementPrice + (0.5 * SD);
plot usd25 = SettlementPrice + (0.25 * SD);

plot dsd25 = SettlementPrice - (0.25 * SD);
plot dsd5 = SettlementPrice - (0.5 * SD);
plot dsd75 = SettlementPrice - (0.75 * SD);
plot dsd1 = SettlementPrice - SD;

usd1.SetPaintingStrategy(PaintingStrategy.HORIZONTAL);
usd1.SetDefaultColor(Color.DOWNTICK);
usd75.SetPaintingStrategy(PaintingStrategy.HORIZONTAL);
usd75.SetDefaultColor(Color.DOWNTICK);
usd5.SetPaintingStrategy(PaintingStrategy.HORIZONTAL);
usd5.SetDefaultColor(Color.DOWNTICK);
usd25.SetPaintingStrategy(PaintingStrategy.HORIZONTAL);
usd25.SetDefaultColor(Color.DOWNTICK);
dsd25.SetPaintingStrategy(PaintingStrategy.HORIZONTAL);
dsd25.SetDefaultColor(Color.UPTICK);
dsd5.SetPaintingStrategy(PaintingStrategy.HORIZONTAL);
dsd5.SetDefaultColor(Color.UPTICK);
dsd75.SetPaintingStrategy(PaintingStrategy.HORIZONTAL);
dsd75.SetDefaultColor(Color.UPTICK);
dsd1.SetPaintingStrategy(PaintingStrategy.HORIZONTAL);
dsd1.SetDefaultColor(Color.UPTICK);

Hello everyone, wondering if this type of indicator could be achieved?
