An elegant, alternative approach to identifying high-probability participation opportunities through volatility contraction and momentum alignment.
The LuminaSqueeze Protocol combines the proven concept of volatility contraction (TTM Squeeze inspired) with clean momentum confirmation. It is designed to identify moments when markets transition from compression to expansion with measurable conviction — delivering clear participation opportunities while maintaining strict risk discipline.
Bollinger Bands remain inside Keltner Channels for a minimum of 5 consecutive closed bars. This indicates compressed volatility ready for expansion.
Price closes decisively above the Upper Bollinger Band on the release bar, confirming the direction of the expansion.
MACD histogram turns positive, providing conviction that buying pressure is supporting the move.
Same squeeze condition: Bollinger Bands inside Keltner Channels for 5+ bars.
Price closes below the Lower Bollinger Band on the release bar.
MACD histogram turns negative, confirming selling pressure.
All values are optimized for robustness across major forex pairs and indices.
