Three observations have aligned: the Bollinger-Keltner squeeze-breakout obs is firing, current-week volume is well above the 30-week average, and ADX directional-movement asymmetry is in the upper portion of its mapped range.
State
Bollinger-Keltner squeeze-breakout firing, volume-spike firing, ADX asymmetry elevated
Emergence
Three present-state observations align. The Bollinger-Keltner squeeze-breakout obs (fires when Bollinger Bands expand beyond Keltner Channels after a period of compression) is firing. Current-week volume is well above the 30-week baseline. ADX directional-movement asymmetry is in the upper portion of its mapped range. The three readings describe a present-state co-occurrence of a volatility-expansion-from-compression detection with elevated current-week volume and lopsided directional movement — none of the three observations identifies direction.
Limits
This interpretation records three present-state observations. It does not predict continuation, guarantee direction, or claim the pattern will sustain. The squeeze-breakout obs detects an expansion from a compressed-volatility state — the expansion can resolve in either direction and can revert as quickly as it appeared. The volume reading is single-week, not sustained. ADX is direction-agnostic — an elevated reading says directional movement has been lopsided but not which way.
Explanation
Each observation reads a different aspect of recent price-and-volume behavior: Bollinger-Keltner Squeeze Breakout fires when Bollinger Bands expand beyond Keltner Channels after a period during which the Bollinger Bands sat inside the Keltner Channels (the 'squeeze'). The obs records the expansion event as it occurs; it does not record direction. Volume Spike is current-week volume divided by the 30-week average volume. A high score means current-week volume is well above the 30-week baseline. The obs is a single-week deviation reading. Sustained Directional-Movement Asymmetry (ADX) smooths the asymmetry between positive and negative directional movement over the lookback. A high score means directional movement has been lopsided; the obs does not record which side dominates. When all three align, the configuration is a present-state co-occurrence of a volatility-expansion detection with elevated current-week volume and elevated directional-movement asymmetry. None of the three obs records breakout direction. Squeeze-breakout patterns fail regularly; the obs do not measure failure rates.
Interpretation
This interpretation identifies a co-occurrence of three present-state observations. It does not predict how far any move will extend, guarantee direction, or indicate timing.
Required Observations
Adx Standard
Smoothed asymmetry between positive and negative directional movement, direction-agnostic
Bollinger Keltner Compression Released
Volatility had been compressed for several weeks; that compression has just ended. Says nothing about price direction.
Volume Spike
Current period volume relative to historical average volume
