Topic: Bollinger band indicator shift parameter missing

Bollinger bands indicator has no shift parameter which is very important.

Displaced bollinger bands projects bands into future.

See for Reference : Displaced moving average (DMA)

Displaced bollinger bands concept is not found on the internet or in books. but displaced moving average , displaced keltner channels can be found on the internet for reference.

Uses of Displaced bollinger bands (simply shifting bands forward using shift parameter):

1. Removes lag
2. Shows support and resistance
3. Used for identifying cycles, elliott waves and harmonic patterns.
4. MOst importantly : used for setting profit targets or taking profits.

attaching jpg that shows how effective the bollinger bands indicator becomes using the shift parameter for taking profits.

please kindly fix the indicator - your's faithful -jeevan.

Hello Jeevan,

We cannot plot the indicator values in the future in real trading.

In real life the most recent correct value is from the previous bar closing.
