VIP Only, please do not distribute outside of the Elite Circle. It's based on Mike's Version 2.02 from February. This plots the same as Mike's except for two differences.
Quick Start Modification causes value of CMA to rapidly converge to the correct value within a few bars of startup.
The method of calling the EMA's was changed for greater efficiency. This causes initial loading to be much faster, and resource use while indicator runs to be much lower. Thanks to Richard of MoveTheMarkets.com for his excellent article about this subject.
To see the envelope bands, chart must go back at least one day. Bands begin to display on the second day.
As in original version, all band colors are hard coded and are best for a chart with a dark background.
Again, this is a major rewrite. Backup your old copy first, this one will overwrite it. If you don't like the new one you can go back to the old one this way.
There are two parameter options.
Multiplier - 1.0 is normal. If you feel the bands are too tight, you can raise this value, but it will no longer represent the real retracement levels of the daily ATR.
ATR Length - 7 is default. Lower will adapt more quickly to a changing market (like the recent huge fluctuations on CL). Higher will adapt slower.
I've added two extra bands to show the 100% and 161.8% levels. I've set the default colors the way I like them, which is different than the last version so take note. I also like the bands to blend into the chart, so the Alpha opacity is set for each plot.
You'll need to redo your template as the Plot names and settings have changed.
The histogram has been removed.
As far as I can tell, I've solved the math bugs. Please report any problems.

This is the final version of the older CCLFibBands. I took Fib out of the title because it is much more than Fibs and indeed Fibs are not necessarily a core component. Users can input Fib ratios for the band widths but apart from that it's really a multi-band-type tool which can be used in a wide variety of ways.
1. Mean price based on various types of MA including BMT collective and other collectives, vwap (24 hr).
2. Mean based on day-range midprice or manually input price such as the Open, Yesterday Close or whatever you like.
3. Several types of band: ATR-based, StD based or custom default which is combination of ATR and percentage of price; also can be more or less responsive to short-term volatility; also can be based on looking back to see average maximum ranges over time to fix the outer bands and work the inner ones back from there.
4. One more minor wrinkle: can average any midline with the vwap. Also dynamic PVP is available as a mean.
5. Has target printing capability as DataSeries onetime plot dots or more extended text prints (which cannot be autoscale = falsed unfortunately), based on instant crossover of a band or later confirmed swing points (in Calc Bar Close mode only for swing option).
As far as I can tell, the indicator works well with no errors. When choosing any option involving the targets based on swing, have to keep indy in CalconBarClose = true; that confused me for a while. This because the Swing Indicator used to determine swing prices is calconbarclose only.
The attached picture shows Jan 6 am action in Gold with the mean price based on the POC/PVP price from yesterday afternoon. This is using the Manual MAtype and having a price typed into the ManualOverridePrice input. Also in this case I had the Lookback option on the band calculations. The Std bands probably would have contained price better but the purpose of this setup was to gauge whether or not the morning was looking like a rangebound day or a trend day. The price charging way above the old PVP and the outer bands clearly indicated a trend day. So in this case not used for trading signals per se, simply perspective on market situation.
There are many ways this indicator can be used. Hopefully the comments are helpful given how many options there are, but hopefully also anyone who finds bands helpful will take the time to simply experiment with different options.
Feb 5 2010: Version 2.02 is available here and is also NT7 compatible.
This is for VIP users only.
Please do NOT distribute!
As always, I spend my time developing indicators to give to the VIP community, since it is those within the VIP community that are supporting BMT. If you share this indicator with someone else or on another website, it hurts me.
This indicator allows you to choose an SMA, EMA, HMA, WMA, VWMA, JMA or ZeroLagEMA and then paint fibonacci levels above/below that price.
You can choose two calculation methods. Method 1 uses 34, 55, and 89 for bands. Method 2 uses 38.2, 50.0, and 61.8.
Attached are some screens.
Please give me some feedback and let me know what you think.
BTW, this indicator does not repaint and it does work correctly with COBC false.
