The Bollinger Heatmap is a visual tool designed for traders who want to track Bollinger Band extremes across multiple symbols and timeframes — all in one color-coded dashboard.
This indicator scans up to 10 user-defined currency pairs (or other instruments) across 8 major timeframes (M1, M5, M15, M30, H1, H4, D1 and W1) and displays how far the current price is from the Bollinger Bands’ upper or lower boundaries in pips (1 pip = 10 points).
-
🟢 If the price is above the upper band, the pip distance is shown in green.
-
🔴 If the price is below the lower band, the pip distance is shown in red.
-
🟡 If the price is inside the bands, a neutral “—” (dash) is shown.
This indicator is helpful in identifying volatility breakouts, reversal opportunities, or overbought/oversold extremes in real time — without switching charts.
