The Bollinger Band Width (Titan_BB_width) indicator displays the width of the Bollinger Bands on a sub-chart.
While it is difficult to observe minor changes in band width with standard Bollinger Bands, this indicator allows for efficient monitoring of changes in band width.
Besides a simple line display, it can also be displayed as a histogram (bar chart), where the color changes based on the increase or decrease from the previous bar, making it easier to grasp the contraction of the band width.
This can be used to target the onset of trends after the bands contract and gather strength, or to identify peak timing in trends.
【Comparison of Bollinger Bands (on the main chart) and Bollinger Band Width (on the sub-chart)】

When displayed as a histogram, it shows different colors for increases or decreases from the previous bar, making it easier to understand the contraction status of the width. By default, if the width has increased from the previous bar, it is displayed in green, and if it has decreased, it is displayed in light blue.
【Example of Histogram Display】

When displaying as a line, adding arbitrary levels (horizontal lines) in the 'Display Levels' setting on the indicator settings screen can make analysis more efficient.
By adding levels at specified points as shown in the next image, it becomes easier to understand changes in width.
【Example of Analysis Using Simple Line and Level Display】

There are various ways to analyze using Bollinger Bands, but when the bands contract and then diffuse upwards or downwards, there tends to be a momentum in trends.
Using the Bollinger Band Width indicator, the contraction status of the bands is clearly visible.
