I was listening to a web broadcast on Think or Swim today and they had a guest trader who uses something that Carter came up with using BB(20) and Keltner channels(1.5). The idea is that a "squeeze" occurs when the upper and lower BB are both contained within the Keltner Channels for a period of time. This trader had created code to build a TOS chart with a histogram which indicated when the BB left the Keltner channels either through the upper channel or the lower channel. He called this histogram a squeeze indicator.

I'm not sure if SF can create such a histogram but more importantly can SF select stocks that have been in this "squeeze" condition for awhile and then create a list of those stocks for either bullish or bearish entries based upon the BB escaping the keltner channels.

Thanks ahead a time.

I just watched Carter on sfomag.com archives. I understand the part about one set of bands moving inside the other set of bands but I don't understand the use of the indicators at the bottom of your filter's charts. How are those indicators used here?

I just added them for the heck of it. I myself just have MACD and Bollinger Bands (20) as part of my default settings. I then add the others on a case by case basis.

Look at this filter then look at it one day ago. One can do a double clink the top first profitable from yesterday and SF will put the in order as to most profitable and so forth.

Show stocks where CMF(14) crossed above 0
and close is between 1 and 25
AND and and Average Volume(10) is above 100000
Draw Upper Keltner Band(20,1.5)
Draw Lower Keltner Band(20,1.5)

I backtested this filter against a positive buying scenario (pick a previous positive buying environment) and my results were 80% Wins and a ROI = 70.5%. My sell trigger was when my slow stochstic %D would go over the 80 marker. Or you could have a trigger that when your MACD(12,26,9)fast line crossed below its slow line or if you had 2 consecutive negative price days. With this particular filter maybe you would have something else as your sell trigger? Your call.
