VCP v2
v2 Update — BB Width Squeeze
Replaced the ADR% percentile compression calculation with a Bollinger Band Width squeeze system.
Previously the indicator ranked current ADR% within its recent historical range, which struggled to detect compression during long slow consolidations where ADR% stays flat throughout.
BB Width measures how narrow the bands are relative to the 20-period SMA, then ranks current width as a percentile against a 90-day lookback.
Green when BB Width is in the bottom 15% of its range (true squeeze territory)
Orange at 15–25%, red above.
