Combo IndicatorFor easier setup, this script combines 5 indicators. 3 simple moving averages, 1 EMA and Bollinger Bands. These are common indicators that are that often used and discussed on OptionsPlayers.com
Bands
ELASTIC WEIGHTED MOVING AVG with STDDEV BANDSImported from Stock & Commodities February 2017 month’s Traders’ Tips issue , from Vitali Apirine’s article in this issue, “Exponential Standard Deviation Bands.” Here, we present the February 2017 Traders’ Tips code with possible implementations in various software.

FHX Bands (VWMA BB)This study is an optimized version of Bollinger Bands based on volume weighted data points: more volume on a bar gives those prices a higher impact. FHX bands base on the assumptions of auction market theory (e.g., as does volume profiling). Bollinger Bands implicitly assume a uniform probability mass function for data points and consider only the - somewhat arbitrary - close price. In contrast to this, FHX bands take all four available data points into account (OHLC) and use the volume at each candle* to define a probability mass function in order to compute mean and standard deviation.
As an indicator, FHX bands could be used in the same way as BB to facilitate or confirm Break-Out trades and identify strong momentum moves. Settings for the standard deviation multiplier should be interpreted as follows (following the 68–95–99.7 rule):
x standard deviation set to 1: ~32% chance that a move outside the bands is by chance
x standard deviation set to 2: ~5% chance that a move outside the bands is by chance
x standard deviation set to 3: ~0.3% chance that a move outside the bands is by chance
This however assumes a fairly solid period of consolidation beforehand (visible through notable contraction of the bands) and a normal distribution of values within that consolidation period. Therefore users need to experiment within their time frame in order to identify a Length setting that suits their needs. Personally, I set Length to 21 or lower, depending on my targeted time frame. Note that the indicator does not test for normality in any way; you can, however, use a quick visual test using the fixed range volume profile indicator to increase its reliability.
Good luck and mind your risk

Kaufman's Adaptive Moving Average BandsKaufman's Adaptive Moving Average with 6 Bands at a time and trend direction.
Fibonacci BandsCreates bands based on Fibonacci numbers and the SMA.

How to trade
- Best to use in ranging market conditions
- Place on two different time frames eg. 15 and 55 min.
- Take trades off either short or long term chart.
- Best trades occur when both charts show same trigger/condition.
- Trades are short term reversals in direction of major trend on longer term chart unless you expect a trend reversal.
- Determine which band is the limiting band for the volatility of the instrument.
- When the market closes outside of the limiting band then returns inside, take a long/short one tick above/below the high/low of the previous bar.
- Place stop below/above the low/high of the the recent swing low/high.
- Set targets at opposite band of chart
[RS]Average Variation Bands V1optional method for cumulative averaging of the range variation.
optional length for averaging range variation.
Bollinger Bands Fibonacci ratiosThe Fibonacci Bollinger Bands indicator is based on the same principles as the standard Bollinger Bands indicator developed by John Bollinger. The Fibonacci Bollinger Bands indicator bases its upper and lower bands on volatility just like the Bollinger Bands indicator does, but instead of using standard deviation as the measure of volatility, a Wilders Smoothed ATR is used in its place.
The middle band is a moving average used to establish the intermediate-term trend. The 3 upper bands are constructed by using the Wilders Smoothed ATR and multiplying it by each of the Fibonacci factors (1.618, 2.618, and 4.236) and then adding the results to the middle band. The 3 lower bands are constructed in the same manner as the upper bands except their results are subtracted from the middle band.
VWAP Stdev Bands v2 Modoriginal script by /u/SandroTurriate/ - I just made some small changes.
Vwap + standard deviation bands. Good for reversal trading among other things. Used intraday.
Very useful when price is ranging.
I added the option to fill the spaces between the deviation lines with color and also the option to add some extra bands. That's about it. Color/length/style etc is customizable.
Yacine MA Bands ModMashed together the ema-bands from IvanLabrie with some moving average script stuff from ChrisMoody and LazyBear and this is the result. Credit goes to them, 'cause I don't know to how to code tbh. Just copy/pasted stuff untill I got the result I wanted.
Bands work as support/resistance among other things. You can use them to trade breakouts or reversals or whatever.
Combining them with a momentum indicator would probably be useful for timing divergence or OB/OS and stuff like that.
Included moving average types;
SMA
EMA
RMA
WMA
VWMA
HullMA
TilsonMA
TEMA
Not sure if all of them works as they should... y'know since I cant code/script. Looks good to me though.¨
Default should work pretty good for the DAX, But you'll probably want to fiddle a bit with the settings.
Here's a pic of how they can be used. Ofc everything looks simple in hindsight, but you get the point.

WHAT'S THIS?
This IS NOT the wheel "Re-Invention"... This is exactly what the name says: A pair of Envelope Bands to measure "volatility", constructed at statistical relation from within price series and their Rolling back MEAN (Simple Moving Average). YES, What Mr. Bollinger did and put it's name to this simple, cleaver and popular formula.
This time, I took the time to make another simple mod, but seems to me to be quite functional in REAL VOLATILE assets like in the example chart: TO USE THEIR GEOMETRIC MODE!!
Cheers!
Any feedback or public modification(s) are quite welcome to the community....!

Triple Bollinger BandsI found myself using multiple bollinger bands a lot so I decided to add them all to one script and add the ability to adjust them by 0.2. It has helped me by not taking up as much space in the upper left corner as well as improving my in's and outs of trend continuation trades. If you manage to find a double top at +2 or greater deviation, and with a bearish divergence on the RSI as shown in this picture, GO SHORT SON! This was a fast and easy 35 - 40 pips and if you used your fibonacci for an exit you had little doubt of the final result and could have even been prepared for an immediate reversal knowing you were then at an oversold -2.8 deviation. I could go on and on........
Kay_BBands v2This is the second version of Kay_BBands. But this is infused with ADX.
When +DI (Directional Index) is above -DI, then Upper band will be visible and vice-versa.
This is when the ADX is above the threshold. 20 is the default but can be set to 25.
When the ADX is below the specified threshold, both bands gets visible, showing no trending conditions.
Use it with another band with setting 20/21, 0.6 deviation. Prices keeping above or below the 2nd bands upper or lower bounds shows trending conditions.
Average True Range Overlay - BandPlots a band of width 1 ATR around the midpoint (HL2)
Settings:
- Length of ATR
Multi BB Heat Vis - SMA/EMA/Breakout - r2I don't expect to iterate any further on this script, unless any weird issue crops up.
Description and usage detailed in the comments at the top of the script. Cheers!
To repaint or not to repaint, all the relevant sources are exposed as inputs for customisation - so the choice is yours.
Cheers!
[JR] Multi Bollinger Heat Bands - EMA/Breakout optionsA little, yet hopefully useful update over my previous "Multi Bollinger Heat Bands". For those who like quick visual cue's.
In short: It's your Basic Bollinger Bands, but 3 of them, and some pointy things.
In full:
Three stacked SMA based Bollinger Bands designed just to give you a quick visual on the "heat" of movement.
Set inner band as you would expect, then set your preferred additional multiplier increments for the outer 2 bands.
Option to use EMA as alternative basis, rather than SMA.
Breakout indication shapes, which have their own multiplier (but still tied to same length/period as the BB's) so you can make them pop on their own separate "band".
[JR] Multi Bollinger Heat BandsBollinger Bands, with incremented additional outer bands.
Set as you would normally, but with the addition of an incremental value for the added outer bands.
Defaults with Length 20, base multiplier of 2.0, and an Increment value of 0.5 for additional outer bands at 2.5 and 3.0. Adjust values to suite your needs.
All lines and zones have colour and formatting options available - because why not eh?

-== IMPORTANT: THIS IS AN EXPERIMENTAL INDICATOR ==-
What is this?
This work is a derivation of my previous Accumulation/Distribution scripts publicly available in TradingView in an effort to clean, speedup and make the indicator cleaner as possible.
The current indicator is based on already tested and Mathematically proof concepts as described below:
The MAIN Rolling back median line or "Vortex" is constructed by a simple and equal weighting of distributed volume along the candle range (This approach is just an "estimator" of Buyers Vs. Sellers given the lack of tick resolution in TradingView, a real "DELTA" can only be 100% reliable with Market Depth (Ask/Bid ticks)), Given this, with each "volume weights", the price is post-processed against a true statistical Average calculation formerly: ELASTIC VOLUME WEIGHTED MOVING AVERAGE.
The FRACTAL BANDS are just Standard Deviation's with GOLDEN RATIO as multiplier (1.618) derived one from each other within it's origin on the former "Vortex Median".
The Standard Error Bands comply as the original indicator described by Jon Andersen but given the true statistical nature of EVWMA, the original LinReg line has been substituted by the former.
ALL NEW IDEAS OR MODIFICATIONS to this indicator are welcome in favor to deploy a better technical tool. Any important addition to this work MUST REMAIN PUBLIC by means of CreativeCommons CC & TradingView user rules. (C) 2015 @XeL_Arjona

Traders issue: Stocks & Commodities V. 14:9 (375-379):
Standard Error Bands by Jon Andersen
Version 1
For a quick and publicly open explanation of this Statistical indicator, you can refer at Here!
Extract from the former URL:
Standard Error bands are quite different than Bollinger's. First, they are bands constructed around a linear regression curve. Second, the bands are based on two standard errors above and below this regression line. The error bands measure the standard error of the estimate around the linear regression line. Therefore, as a price series follows the course of the regression line the bands will narrow, showing little error in the estimate. As the market gets noisy and random, the error will be greater resulting in wider bands.
