Adaptive Squeeze Momentum +

Adaptive Squeeze Momentum+ (Auto-Timeframe Version)


Overview
Adaptive Squeeze Momentum+ is an enhanced volatility and momentum indicator designed to identify compression and expansion phases in price action. It is inspired by the classic Squeeze Momentum Indicator by LazyBear but introduces automatic parameter adaptation to any timeframe, making it simpler to use across different markets without manual configuration.

Concepts and Methodology
The script combines Bollinger Bands (BB) and Keltner Channels (KC) to detect periods when volatility contracts (squeeze) or expands (release).

• A squeeze occurs when BB are inside KC, suggesting low volatility and potential breakout scenarios.
  
• A squeeze release is detected when BB expand outside KC.
  
• Momentum is derived using a linear regression applied to the difference between price and a midrange reference level.
  

Original Improvements
Compared to the original Squeeze Momentum Indicator, this version offers several enhancements:

• Automatic Adaptation: BB and KC lengths and multipliers are dynamically adjusted based on the chart’s timeframe (from 1 minute up to 1 month), removing the need for manual tuning.
  
• Simplified Visualization: A clean, minimalist histogram and clear squeeze state cross markers allow for faster interpretation.
  
• Flexible Application: Designed to work consistently on intraday, daily, and higher timeframes across crypto, forex, stocks, and indices.
  

Features
Dynamic Squeeze Detection:
Gray Cross: Neutral (no squeeze detected)
Blue Cross: Active squeeze
Yellow Cross: Squeeze released
Momentum Histogram:
Positive/negative momentum shown with slope-based coloring.
Timeframe-Aware Parameters:
Automatically sets optimal BB/KC configurations.

Usage

• Watch for blue crosses indicating an active squeeze phase that may precede a directional move.
  
• Use the histogram color and slope to gauge momentum strength and direction.
  
• Combine squeeze release signals with momentum confirmation for potential entries or exits.
