Bollinger ATR Squeeze

  Good afternoon, ive created this indicator that shows when the Bollinger bands divided by Average true range are trading within 3-4 ATR, 2-3 ATR and below 2 ATR. Im looking to have dots all on the zero level with white dots when the bollingers are between 3-4 ATR, Green dots between 2-3 ATR and blue dots below 2 ATR and red dots at all other times. Can someone take a look at my code and see where its going wrong please? Im seeing the dots in a squeeze at the one level whilst the rest of the dots are at the zero level and the dots at the zero level are white and red whereas they should just be red since at those times the Bollingers are wider than 4 ATR. Any help much appreciated.

  Thanks in advance

  Wow1 thanks for your help. It seems that only the mid squeeze is working..i have the green dots working fine but the rest of the dots are red which seems to suggest the white (wider sqz) and the blue (narrower sqz) are not being picked up.

  Hi Alfy,

  Return the value of “C” and compare it with your colors…

  I get the same as you so i see the green dots and the Blue dots but it seems that its not picking up the white dot wider squeeze which is C with values between 3 & 4. (Lowsqz=c=<4 and c>3) Really appreciate you help with this. Its almost perfect
