Gaussian Bands Indicator

Description

The GaussianBands indicator works like BollingerBands and performs centerline and deviation band filtering based on input deviation parameters.

This indicator identifies the price squeeze, and this means the beginning of the open trade position, and the direction of the trade is determined by the price position with the central line of the indicator (above/beelow).

This indicator also identifies the state of momentum and trend based on extended internal and external bands.

Thanks at last someone code Gaussian band for ctrader. Hope to see you code another Quantile Band indicator
