Narrowing bands (squeeze) signal an impending move; price riding the upper band = strength.
Relative band width, quantifying volatility and squeezes.
BBW=(Upper−Lower)/Mid

%B=(C−Lower)/(Upper−Lower)
>1 breaks above the upper band (overbought), <0 breaks below the lower band (oversold).
Uses the rate of change in the high-low spread to measure volatility expansion/contraction.
(EMA(H−L,10)−its value n periods ago)/its value n periods ago×100

σ=√(Σ(Cᵢ−MA)²/n), n=20
Rising σ = increasing volatility and rising risk.
Expected volatility derived from S&P 500 option implied volatility (the "fear gauge").

Arithmetic mean of the last n closes, smoothing price and identifying trend direction.
SMA = (C₁+…+Cₙ)/n
Price above the MA is bullish, below is bearish; commonly 5/10/20/60/120/250-day; short MA crossing above long MA = golden cross (buy), crossing below = death cross (sell).

Up=(n−periods since the n-period high)/n×100, Down likewise, n=25; Oscillator=Up−Down
Up>70 and Down<30 = strong uptrend; Up crossing above Down = bullish.

Upper=MA×(1+p%), Lower=MA×(1−p%), p = 1–5%
Touching the upper band is overbought, touching the lower band is oversold.

Examples: Triangles (symmetrical/ascending/descending), Flag/Pennant (target≈flagpole height), Wedge, Rectangle, Cup & Handle.

PP=(H+L+C)ₚᵣₑᵥ/3, R1=2PP−Lₚᵣₑᵥ, S1=2PP−Hₚᵣₑᵥ
