BBP — Bull and Bear Power Trading Series

The BBP trading series represents the Bull and Bear Power (BBP) indicator, which helps assess the relative positioning of the price within the Bollinger Bands. It is a measure of market momentum and volatility.

It is built upon the Bull and Bear Power indicator implementation from the indicators module.

Parameters

BBP(
    ticker: str,
    length: int = 13
)

  • ticker (str): The symbol of the asset (e.g., "AAPL").

  • length (int): The period used to calculate the underlying Bollinger Bands. Default is 13, which is a common setting.

Description

  • Positive BBP values indicate bulls have greater market power.
  • Negative BBP values indicate bears have greater market power.
  • The farther BBP moves from zero, the stronger the dominance of either bulls or bears.

Example Usage

BBP(
    ticker="AAPL",
    length=13
)

This creates a BBP Trading Series for AAPL using a 13-period setting.
