Bollinger Bands modified

[gg_frx]

is it possible to modify the standard bollinger bands (or write new indicator ...) with:
a) possibility to use decimal numbers and not only integer when calculate "number of standard deviations" (like 1.6 or 2.1 ... )
b) possibility to shift the bands (n periods)

thank you

Yes i don't see a problem with modifying Bollinger Bands to support decimals in that parameter. I'll give it a try and post once its done. Same thing goes for "shifting", i'll try shifting it and see how it works out. If it will present no problems i'll post the new indicator.

well .... good news for us if it works ...
.. but ... bad news for you ... ... i think that you must modify the bollingerwidth and%b indicator adding decimals support ...

No we just create a new one. We must not override original Bollinger Bands indicator.
How is it bad news for us?

Anyway here is the link, i made decimal support for original Bollinger Bands and for 2 more BB oscillators that i coded in last week or so, figured maybe somebody would find that useful as well to have decimal support in them:

So unless you need the other 2 just get BB-Decimal.lua, let me know if it works the way you wanted it.

Cheers.
