Hello,
Could you kindly post the settings for BB Bands and Keltner Channels you are using if it is O.K. with you.

I like they way you still keep the O/H/L/C lines because the detail is still apparent unlike a c-stick method.

Funny but I'm not John or Hubert, AND, most importantly the squeeze was not created by them -- let's just say they borrowed the idea from the Tradestation forum...
I realize that you most likely are not Hubert or John but isn't that
the TTM squeeze indicator at the bottom of your chart that they
sell for over $18,000 or whatever it is?...
Here is a little tip I adapted from someone else.
Put a 1 Std dev and 3 stdev BB over a price chart. If price is in a trend it will trade between the 1 and 3 stdev bands and when it moves back out the trend is usually reversing. So when the bands get narrown the breakout from the 1 zone into the 1<zone<3 is the start of the trend and you can go long or short.
The move usually pulls back to the 1 STDv band and then continues so you usually get a second entry.
Try putting a 1stdev and 3 stdev BB over the price chart and you will see what I mean.

Sorry I left that out lol, I just use the 20 period and it works on daily as well as intraday on 5-minute charts. Honestly on breakouts you could trade on these two bands alone.
I have been developing rules with them as I trade off of them and make good and bad trades. There are good trending channels between the bands.
Also add a 20 and 40 period EMA to the chart for great pullback support and resistance. Also add pivot points for additional support or resistance. I am working on ways to use only these indicators which give great breakout entries. Jury is still out so take it all with a grain of salt.
Still perfecting it so to speak but some of you might have success with it. I can post a chart or two when I get a chance.
