[amibroker] Re: Bollinger Band with variable period in AFL

What about adding a loop surrounding the call and calculating the
period on a bar by bar basis? Then take the resulting bar value from
BBandTop and stick it in your own array so as not to clobber the
previous values.

Something along the lines of:

for (bar = 0; bar < BarCount; bar++) {
  period = ... // dynamic calculation
  top = BBandTop( Close, period, 2);
  myarray[i] = top[i];
}

It's quite slow. But, I believe that it will do what you want.

But how do you get the adaptive standard deviation ? Impossible in
AFL. <Periodes> in StDev() can not be an array ...

suppose one way to go is to use an adaptive moving average (e.g.,
Kaufman's) to get an adaptive BB.
