Indicator Functions

Description

Keltner band (channel) top

Syntax

KBTOP(len, atrs)

Parameters

len - lookback period

atrs - number of ATRs

Notes

It's not clear that there's a "standard" way to implement Keltner channels. The center line could be either a simple or an exponential average. The ATR might use a simple average, EMA, or Wilder's smoothing. This function is a shortcut for EMA(C, len) + atrs * EMA(TR, len).

This indicator supports ultra-fast one-pass calculation when used in the Data Section with a non-variable length.
