Hi John,
 
Thank you for helping on the boll band AFL. I like 
your scan with the % variable method and the changes in color on your 
graphs.
 
What a Awesome Group we have here!  Ilearned 
a lot today.
 
Cheers,
Brian

bband range with variable percentage).
  hi brian.   this seems to look more 
promising.I have modified this formula so that you can choose a valuefor 
the percentage differense you would like the bbands to 
narrow.   I have thought of a few ways to do this and usingthe 
LLV of 10 days probably will not get the results you want.   
As it may narrow more  after the signal is true and the question you 
asked was for the bband contraction  to be at its llv 10.  
so what i did was to use the HHV 10 diff of the high bband and the low 
bband and take a percentage of this to use as the value  that the 
range of the bband contraction should be below.   the reason 
i did this was that if i used a fixed value certain stocks could trigger 
while the diff of the bband range was not to far from the previous range 
as some stocks did not have a huge variation in their high to low range of 
the bband and vice versa.    so i needed to use something 
in the actual individual stock to use  due to each stock having its 
own character.    adjust the diff value as you want 
.   you can use it in the indi builder or run it in the 
explorer.   when running an exploration  and the 
befafter variable is set to 1, it will find the stocks with the true 
condition but a day after the true value is not true anymore, changing 
the value of the befafter variable to zero will find the true cond a day 
after its true.       
diffvalue=0.3;befAfter=1;//0=1Day After True, 1=1 Day After NOT True. 
bbtop = BBandTop(Close, 35, 2);bbbot = BBandBot(Close, 35, 
2);Aa=bbtop-bbbot;gg=IIf(aa>Ref(HHV(Aa,10),-1),1,0);gg2=ValueWhen(gg==1,Aa,1);Cc2=gg2*diffvalue;bb3=IIf(Aa<Cc2,1,0);dd=IIf(BarsSince(bb3==befAfter)==1,1,0);Plot(bbbot,"",4+bb3,4);Plot(bbtop,"",4+bb3,4);Plot(C,"",1,64);Filter 
= Close > 0 AND Close < 25 AND Volume > 5000 AND 
dd==1;AddColumn(C,"close");AddColumn(Aa,"bbanddiff");AddColumn(dd,"dd");AddColumn(V,"volume");AddColumn(RSI(),"rsi");AddColumn(ADX(),"adx");I 
gave it a run on the ASX and only came up with 8 stocks.
