Bollinger Bands Breakout Indicator for MetaTrader 5
The Bollinger Bands Breakout indicator is a volatility-based oscillator for MetaTrader 5 designed to identify periods of price expansion after consolidation. It helps traders detect potential breakout phases when market volatility increases.
The indicator focuses on volatility behavior rather than trend direction.
Indicator Logic
The Bollinger Bands Breakout indicator analyzes price interaction with Bollinger Bands and reacts when price moves outside the bands following a low-volatility phase. This behavior often indicates the beginning of an impulsive price move.
By using an oscillator format, the indicator provides a clear and uncluttered view of breakout conditions.
