Overview

Band width uses average true range, raw true range, or a smoothed high-low range, scaled by a multiplier. When the source crosses above the upper band, it places a long stop order one tick beyond that bar's high; a cross below the lower band places a short stop one tick beyond the low. Pending orders cancel if price returns through the average or reaches the stop. It overlays the price chart and has no stop loss or exit rules by default.
