Description

Bollinger band trend

Syntax

BBTrend(len1, len2, mult)

Parameters

len1 - first lookback period

len2 - second lookback period

mult - number of standard deviations

Notes

The BBTrend indicator is calculated as follows:

lower = ABS(BBBot(len1, mult) - BBBot(len2, mult))

upper = ABS(BBTop(len1, mult) - BBTop(len2, mult))

BBTrend = (lower - upper) / Avg(C, len1)

This indicator is intended to signal both strength and direction of trend.

To calculate BBTrend for something other than Close use BBTrendF.

This function supports one-pass calculation when used in the Data Section with a non-variable count.
