The BBands Stop indicator (Bollinger Bands Stop line) is a trend indicator. When price is over the green curve, the trend is bullish or bearish if the price is below its orange line.
It’s built with bollinger bands phases and act pretty much like a Supertrend, the BBands stop line can also be used to determiner stoploss when you jump in a trend given by its signals (drawn with big “bullets” on chart).
Bollinger bands period and deviation can be changed in settings. The “MoneyRisk” setting is a parameter to widen the spread between the bands and the current price.
This indicator has been translated from MT4 version.
