Usage
Trend Analysis
When price has broken above the channel then it's an uptrend, price below the channel is a downtrend.
Pay attention to when inverse trend line appears only momentarily, these could be excellent trend continuation entry areas.

Reversals
Reversal areas can be spotted where price breaks the channel central ribbon but doesn't close outside on the opposite end of previous trend.

Squeeze
Band fill squeeze mode aims to make it a simple task to see when a squeeze may be weakening, with the color trend brightening during periods of expansion, and disappearing during periods of contraction (squeezing).

• Adjusted settings groups, all deviation bands settings are now together.
  
• Added new deviation bands setting to turn off background color fill if desired.
  
• Bar colors now adjust coloring with price action, if in up trend but close < open the weak uptrend color will be used for bar coloring, similarly for the down trend and close > open using weak downtrend color.
