Average Deviation Bands (ADB)

7 Jan 2023

The Average Deviation Bands indicator is a technical analysis tool that plots multiple bands around the average price of an asset. These bands are calculated using the standard deviation of the asset's price over a specified time period, as well as the average price of the asset over the same period. However, it's important to note that the standard deviation is only calculated for the specified time period leading up to the current point in the data set. The indicator then takes the average of all of these standard deviation values to plot the bands. The number and width of the bands can be customized by the user. The bands can be used to identify potential trend changes and to assess the volatility of the asset. The indicator is often used in combination with other technical analysis tools to provide a more complete picture of market conditions.
