Williams VIX For Bottoms [DCD]Williams VIX Original - Authentic Volatility Fear Gauge
What This Indicator Does
The Williams VIX Fix measures market fear by calculating how far current lows deviate from recent highs, identifying potential market bottoms during high volatility periods. This implementation provides Larry Williams' original formula in its purest form.
How It Works
Core Formula:
VIX Fix = ((Highest High over 22 periods - Current Low) / Highest High over 22 periods) × 100
The calculation process:
Measures Relative Distance: Compares current low to highest high over lookback period
Converts to Percentage: Normalizes values for cross-market comparison
Applies Statistical Analysis: Uses Bollinger Bands (2 std dev) around VIX Fix values
Filters with Percentiles: 85th percentile threshold removes noise
Signal Generation
Green Flash Signals trigger when either condition is met:
VIX Fix exceeds upper Bollinger Band (2 standard deviations above 20-period MA)
VIX Fix exceeds Range High (85th percentile of recent values)
This dual-condition approach reduces false signals while capturing genuine volatility spikes.
What Makes This Original
Pure Formula Implementation: Uses Williams' exact original calculation without modifications
Dual Confirmation System: Combines Bollinger Bands with percentile analysis
