 See article on new approach to using Bollinger Bands by Ed Carlson.
 
 Any way to program this indicator in Stockfetcher?

  Here goes:
 
  	    
 
 I think you could also use the Relative Volatility Index function, described here:

  Great coding on this filter and very interesting article. Thanks for the post and coding.  I read through the article twice and still don't understand very clearly how the author suggests using these signals. His example isn't very clear. But I think his first trigger is an exceedance of an upper or lower  20,2 BB. So I think something like the following would be added to the filter to find candidates, then an interpretation of the signal would be applied, per his instructions in the article. 
 
 set{UX, Count(close above upper bollinger band (20,2), 1)}
 set{DX, Count(Close below lower bollinger band (20,2), 1)}
 set{sum, UX + DX}
 sum > 0.5

  Chet:
 
 Performance restrictions - can't see the output of the last few filters you posted here.  I think I get what you are trying to do from the code, though.
