Components of The Squeeze.
Rationale behind the indicator.
Approach you can use to develop a
customized Squeeze trading.
![Page 4: Avoid Choppy Markets With These 2 Indicators](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021922/58eea7701a28ab43488b4627/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Measure the movement of
closing prices around a
moving average.
![Page 5: Avoid Choppy Markets With These 2 Indicators](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021922/58eea7701a28ab43488b4627/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Moving Average

![Page 6: Avoid Choppy Markets With These 2 Indicators](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021922/58eea7701a28ab43488b4627/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
The bands expand as
volatility increases and
contract as it decreases.
![Page 7: Avoid Choppy Markets With These 2 Indicators](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021922/58eea7701a28ab43488b4627/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Statistically 95% of the
closing prices are contained
within the bands.
![Page 8: Avoid Choppy Markets With These 2 Indicators](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021922/58eea7701a28ab43488b4627/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
The average true range (ATR) of
price bars is calculated and the
channel lines are drawn a fixed
number of ATR's above and
below a moving average of
closing prices.
![Page 9: Avoid Choppy Markets With These 2 Indicators](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021922/58eea7701a28ab43488b4627/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Because the ATR tends to
remain fairly consistent,
the Keltner Channel does
not change much in size.
![Page 10: Avoid Choppy Markets With These 2 Indicators](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021922/58eea7701a28ab43488b4627/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Similar to Bollinger Bands,
the Keltner Channel can
be used in both breakout
and fading strategies.
![Page 11: Avoid Choppy Markets With These 2 Indicators](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021922/58eea7701a28ab43488b4627/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Normal interpretation is
that price is overbought or
oversold as it approaches
these lines.
![Page 12: Avoid Choppy Markets With These 2 Indicators](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021922/58eea7701a28ab43488b4627/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Keltner Channel reacts
more quickly to price
changes.
![Page 13: Avoid Choppy Markets With These 2 Indicators](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021922/58eea7701a28ab43488b4627/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Bollinger Bands tighten.
Keltner Channel remains
relatively constant.
![Page 14: Avoid Choppy Markets With These 2 Indicators](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021922/58eea7701a28ab43488b4627/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
This means that, using the typical
default values, 95% of the closing
prices fall within 1.5 ATR's of the
moving average, and that is what
constitutes a squeeze.
![Page 15: Avoid Choppy Markets With These 2 Indicators](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021922/58eea7701a28ab43488b4627/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
![Page 16: Avoid Choppy Markets With These 2 Indicators](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021922/58eea7701a28ab43488b4627/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
![Page 17: Avoid Choppy Markets With These 2 Indicators](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021922/58eea7701a28ab43488b4627/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
The squeeze can be
applied to any instrument
and any time frame.
![Page 18: Avoid Choppy Markets With These 2 Indicators](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021922/58eea7701a28ab43488b4627/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Default values
for the indicators
2 standard deviations, 1.5 ATR's and a 20 period moving average
![Page 19: Avoid Choppy Markets With These 2 Indicators](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021922/58eea7701a28ab43488b4627/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
The first and more serious
limitation is that it's a
lagging indicator.
![Page 20: Avoid Choppy Markets With These 2 Indicators](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021922/58eea7701a28ab43488b4627/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

There is no such
thing as the holy
grail of trading.
![Page 22: Avoid Choppy Markets With These 2 Indicators](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021922/58eea7701a28ab43488b4627/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Reduce the clutter - develop a
separate indicator for the
squeeze and remove the
Bollinger Bands and Keltner
Channel from the chart.
![Page 23: Avoid Choppy Markets With These 2 Indicators](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021922/58eea7701a28ab43488b4627/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Upper and lower bands or
channel lines are the
same distance from the
moving average.
![Page 24: Avoid Choppy Markets With These 2 Indicators](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021922/58eea7701a28ab43488b4627/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Bollinger Band = Moving Average +
(Number of standard deviations X
Standard Deviation)
Keltner Channel = Moving Average
+ (Number of ATR's X ATR)
![Page 25: Avoid Choppy Markets With These 2 Indicators](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021922/58eea7701a28ab43488b4627/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
BBUpper = Avg(close,period) +
(BBDevs X StdDev(close,period))
KCUpper = Avg(close,period) +
(KCDevs X ATR(period))
![Page 26: Avoid Choppy Markets With These 2 Indicators](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021922/58eea7701a28ab43488b4627/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Squeeze = BBUpper - KCUpper
![Page 27: Avoid Choppy Markets With These 2 Indicators](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021922/58eea7701a28ab43488b4627/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Squeeze =
(BBDevs X StdDev(close,period)) -
(KCDevs X ATR(period))
![Page 28: Avoid Choppy Markets With These 2 Indicators](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021922/58eea7701a28ab43488b4627/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
StdDev and ATR are basic functions
included in all major charting applications.
BBDevs (number of standard
deviations), KCDevs (number of ATR's)
and period (length of the moving
average) are your input values.
![Page 29: Avoid Choppy Markets With These 2 Indicators](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021922/58eea7701a28ab43488b4627/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Bollinger Bands outside Keltner
Channel = positive value
Inside Keltner Channel = negative
value.

Use it as a filter in
conjunction with other
indicators, or use it as one
of several setup indicators.

Extremely effective when
applied to a higher time
frame chart.
