How to read signals from the bollinger squeeze with macd indicator

Then, this tool highlights shifts in thrust. Thus, where price stretches away from a recent average. Next, a typical workflow looks like this.

Entry idea (long). Wait for the gauge to dip below the lower reference and then turn back up while price holds a higher swing low. Then, wait for the bar to close. Intra-bar values can shift.

Entry idea (short). Wait for the gauge to push above the upper reference, then turn back down while price prints a lower swing high. The same close rule applies.

Exit idea. Some traders take partial profit at one R and trail the rest with structure. Some traders trail with structure. Others trail with the tool itself.

Hence, these are concepts, not rules. Then, yet, in practice, backtest on your tool and timeframe before live capital.

Tuning the bollinger squeeze with macd indicator inputs

Start with the defaults, then tune for your market. BBPeriod (default 20) sets the averaging length — raise it for smoother, slower signals or lower it for faster, more sensitive ones; BBDeviations (default 2.0) scales sensitivity — higher values widen the distance and make fewer signals; KCMultiplier (default 1.5) scales sensitivity — higher values widen the distance and make fewer signals. Hence, hence, hence, hence, hence, hence, hence, hence, hence, hence, hence, hence, hence, hence, hence, hence, hence, hence, hence, hence, hence, hence, hence, hence, hence, hence, hence, hence, hence, hence, yet, yet, every alert channel — pop-up, sound, email and mobile push — toggles independently in the same inputs panel, and alerts fire once per closed bar.
