Bollinger Methods
The squeeze anticipates high volatility following a low volatility.
You must combine volume indicators to confirm the validity of the squeeze.
After plotting the intraday intensity(II) i found it was behaving same as chaiken money flow index.
and II was much better in showing the results than A/D.
So the volume indicators i short listed are Chaiken and MFI indicators.
-If you are long and the price tags(touches) upper band with the indicator neutral, take that as warning to tighten up your stops or exercise increased vigilance.If the indicator is negative its outright sell signal.
-Remember the W and M patterns near bottom and tops in bands.
Bollinger band bandwidth :If the value of this indicator is less than 10 it gives me all stocks with less volatility or consolidating or trying to break out squeeze
Bolling %b: this indicator gives where the price is with respect to bands >80 is upper band and <20 is lower band.
Exploration:
Bandwidth<5;
Method 2 explorations found good results with this for short:
Ref(Fml( "BBS - Bollinger Band %b"),-4) >80 AND MFI(10)>70

RMO
The System
RMO Oscillator:
-Not worried about size or shape.
-Above 0 look for Long Trades
-Below 0 look for Short Trades
Exit swing signal
Swing Trade Indicator1:
-Don't use until you are in profitable position
-If the exit swing slips below the red line on a buy trade, look at putting in a trailing stop
-Likewise If the exit swing slips below the blue line on a sell trade, look at putting in a trailing stop
Swing Trade Indicator 2:Tracks Medium term trends (Pink Histogram)
Swing Trade indicator3:Tracks Long term trends (Purple Histogram)
-Cross of 2 and 3 implies change in strength
-Buy and Sell appear when swing 2 and 3 cross
-Red and Blue bars appear when Swing 2 moves above or below 0 line
-If you see a change in colour say from blue to red sell it below the low and red to blue buy it at high
SHORT:
Sell Arrow + Red bar + RMO is negative
LONG:
Blue Arrow + Blue Bar + RMO is Positive
All the above 3 does not need to happen on the same bar, we can wait for it to happen one after other
