I saw a video with John F. Carter explaining that the squeeze is when the Bollinger Bands cross inside of Keltner Channels. I decided to script it into cloud form. It appears this would have great applications for finding ranges to scalp as well.

hello. the cloud barely see it, how can I make it bigger? thanks!

I think if the cloud is too small it is probably not a very significant squeeze. and I wouldn't want them to be too visually intrusive, personally.

But here you go, I made it so that you can artificially inflate the squeeze cloud's top and bottom values, the inside values will stay the same.

just toggle inflatesqueezeclouds to yes and change the inflatevalue
1.0 = 100% increase

oh. so if big squeeze the cloud will bigger(this is nice). if I change that will still have this function?

its not an absolute, but from what I've seen after looking at them across a lot of charts, when they are thick with a more compact trading range the moves tend to have more substance. Again this isn't 100% or anything just observation, it could also have a small break in the squeeze clouds and continue sideways and form more squeeze clouds producing a type of channel, usually sloping towards one direction or another. Just keep in mind the overall context of what you're observing.
 
ok. BTW I did watched his YouTube channel just three ago. then I find u. lol.....THANK YOU!
 
@Welkin Thanks for sharing. is it possible for this script to look up at different time frames for a squeeze and somehow show it on the chart? 5min/15min/30min/hourly/daily etc? also would it be possible to add long/short signals as well when in squeeze? TIA
 
So ST has this stats indicator for there squeeze indicator. Does anyone know how they coded this logic?

I want to create something similar to this for my own strategy/indicator. Its a pretty simple CCI one.

Thanks!
 
This is cool, thanks! Could you possibly do clouds for when the bollinger band is outside the keltner channels (this would be a different indicator, I realize). Currently I have both on and it really helps identify strong moves when prices are between the bollinger and keltner edges, ie, they are outside keltner channel but inside the edge of the bollinger bands. Currently it is kind of messy having both on in my chart. Thanks!

not a hard change, this should do it: https://tos.mx/CFFtOoe
toggle OutlineClouds to no if you just want only clouds

Thanks for making my modification! I'm guessing this is still showing squeezes on the higher timeframes as the clouds sometimes appear for them but not always? How should I interpret those?

Also, is there a way to make this work on tick charts, even if it means making an alternate version that doesn't have multi-timeframe? Thanks!

Sorry for the late response. Yes it is still showing the squeezes from the higher time aggregations but you can disable them. simply toggle 'enable aggregation2' or 'enable aggregation3' to no.


the squeeze lets you see points of what is considered low volatility, a prelude to higher volatility. Often you will see them act as support or resistance until price breaks out. When you see them stack up it is an even greater indication of some potential higher volatile moves on larger time frames. Do some backtesting on multiple tickers and use your own analysis and determine if these are informative enough to be used in your personal trading strategies.

I recommend checking out two books that talk about the squeeze:
John Bollinger - Bollinger on Bollinger Bands chapter 8 and chapter 12
and John F Carter - Mastering the Trade (3rd edition) chapter 12 (or chapter 11 in the 2nd edition)

as far as having these on tick charts or even range charts, thats something i'll have to look into.

edit: I'd also like to note that I do not personally use the squeeze the same way John F Carter does, his focus is on higher time frames such as days/weeks/months and he doesn't have clouds on his chart AFAIK, only a momentum indicator with a dotted line that toggles from green to red when a squeeze is taking place. Being able to see what is actually happening with the squeeze is a huge benefit imo. My use of them is primarily on a 5min chart in conjunction with VWAP deviation bands using them as an areas of interest for reversals . Thats why i bundled it with this: https://usethinkscript.com/threads/ultimate-vwap-indicator-for-thinkorswim.1681/

Thanks! I actually have tried Simpler Trading's free trials for their chat rooms. I am trying to get a hold of his book at my local library but they are hard to get so I may have to buy it (Carter). My hunch is the multi-timeframe aspect is what is messing up the ability to use it on tick charts, that usually seems to be the case. If that part could be stripped out it would be useful for futures trading on tick charts - paired with price action and support/resistance, when price spikes out of the keltner and bollinger bands, it can be a good reliable scalp for a reversion to the mean. Conversely it can also show a strong momentum move to trade with the trend.

here you go try this one, it doesn't have MTF squeeze clouds https://tos.mx/uC4rgih

I haven't looked explored its use on tick charts, thats definitely something to look into. I have a small pane with a 5tick range chart that i like to use, easier to see patterns forming on it, and have better idea of what price action is saying. I also use a reversion to mean strategy, but I use VWAP deviations not bollinger bands.
drop me an email perhaps i have some resources i'd like to share that you'd probably be interested in (or anyone else if they want :)). welkincall at gmail.
 
@Welkin I decided to modify the cloud color to reflect the original TTM_Squeeze momentum color. Then i saw that you released a MTF version so I did that one too.

We all know John F. Carter and his Squeeze indicator, In this lock-down he came up with another idea to take Squeeze to much higher level and came up with Squeeze Pro. Just Wanted to bring to everyone's ( specially coder) attention. I feel this is wonderful coder community and trying to come up with some thing new some reliable way to trade. I don't think there is no wrong doing if we could get idea and build our own from the scratch as long as we don't copy and paste his original code

I think this is nice way for momentum trading ... knowing when the market will move big and what direction
I will encourage coder trader to have a look ... they may come with something similar... that will help the new trader trade confidently
thank you
