KELTNER
BANDS
Keltner Bands
are an excellent and powerful analytical trading tool to anticipate Support
and Resistance levels in trending moves, and to also identify Support/Resistance
levels of Congestion ranges.
A Keltner
Band is based on a 45-bar moving average (day, week, month, intraday price
bar, etc.), and a Standard Deviation move away from the 45-bar centerline,
based on the average true range.
The Keltner
Bands can be used for Support/Resistance levels, and can also be combined
with Mechanical Buy/Sell as in Template 7.
The Standard
Deviation used in this chart is 1.95, but following the downside breakout
would be increased to 6 or 8. Prices reaching a widely watched Standard
Deviation of 6 or 8 will often end a move.
Hands-On
for ProfitTrader Users
To get a "feel" for the Keltner Bands, change the STD DEV
in monthly, weekly, daily (and intraday, if you have it) charts from
1 to 8 to see how the Bands change. |
