Hello, I am interested in a study called TTM Squeeze I have used it on other platforms(Thinkorswim). I read another thread saying the Bollinger Band Squeeze studies are the same as TTMS. Unfortunately I can't get the study to perform like the original TTM Squeeze. Tried adjusting settings but cannot seem to get it right. I have a code on how it is setup on another platform. Is there a way to get it working the same?


def nK = 1.5;
def nBB = 2.0;
def lengthsqueeze = 20;

def BBHalfWidth = StDev(price, lengthsqueeze);
def KCHalfWidth = nK * Average(TrueRange(h, c, l), lengthsqueeze);
def isSqueezed = nBB * BBHalfWidth / KCHalfWidth < 1;

Where did you get this formula from?

I got this code from my study on thinkorswim. These are the same settings used on the TTM Squeeze. I use the study mostly to show when it is in a squeeze. But with the current Bollinger Band Squeeze settings the data is not quite the same.

Letting you know we just need some more time to follow up on this.

We will have a closer look next week and see if we can adapt one of the existing studies to do exactly the formula you provided if it is not already supported.

I also have a tradestation study download of the indicator and a photo. If this will be of any help. Thanks

Whats the update on this indicator? I'm also interested in the TTM Squeeze the bollinger band squeeze you have does not fit with my strategy due to different settings then John Carters TTM Squeeze settings. Whats the time frame that this will be finished and ready to use? Thank you for your hard work!!!

In the next release, there will be a Bollinger Squeeze 3 study coded according to this:
def nK = 1.5;
def nBB = 2.0;
def lengthsqueeze = 20;

def BBHalfWidth = StDev(price, lengthsqueeze);
def KCHalfWidth = nK * Average(TrueRange(h, c, l), lengthsqueeze);
def isSqueezed = nBB * BBHalfWidth / KCHalfWidth < 1;
