APXTradez - Swing Overlay
🔹 APX Swing Overlay – Summary & Usage Guide
Purpose
The APX Swing Overlay is built for options swing traders who focus on 1–5 day directional moves.
It visually identifies trend strength, compression zones, and momentum buildup using a combination of EMAs, Bollinger Bands, and Keltner Channels — making it ideal for spotting breakouts early.
Core Components
8 EMA (Exponential Moving Average)
- Tracks short-term price action and momentum.
- Price above = bullish continuation; price below = short-term weakness.
- Acts as the first dynamic support/resistance level.
21 EMA
- Captures the mid-term trend (confirmation layer).
- When the 8 EMA crosses above the 21 EMA → bullish shift.
- When the 8 EMA crosses below the 21 EMA → bearish or consolidation signal.
Bollinger Bands (BB)
- Measures volatility around price.
- When the bands tighten, volatility is compressing → expect expansion soon.
- When the bands expand, volatility is releasing → breakout or breakdown in play.
Keltner Channels (KC)
- Uses ATR to show “normal” price movement range.
- When Bollinger Bands move inside the Keltner Channels, it signals a squeeze — price is coiling up for a potential breakout.
- Compression Highlights
- The overlay visually marks when BB are inside KC (low volatility squeeze).
- These zones are shaded or highlighted so you can easily see when a stock is building pressure.
- Once price exits that zone with momentum, it often begins a new swing leg.
How to Use It
Add to Chart: Apply the APX Swing Overlay on your daily or 4-hour timeframe.
Look for Compression:
- Watch for areas where the bands tighten and the compression highlight appears.
- This means volatility is low — expect an expansion soon.
- Wait for Expansion + EMA Confirmation:
- A breakout above both the 8 & 21 EMA, with bands expanding, signals a potential long swing.
- A breakdown below both EMAs with expanding bands signals potential short swing.
Ride the Trend:
- Stay in the trade as long as price respects the 8 EMA.
- Take profit when momentum slows or the 8 crosses back below the 21 EMA.
Best Timeframes
Daily Chart → Ideal for swing setups (2–5 day hold).
4H Chart → Good for early entry timing and breakout confirmation.
Quick Visual Interpretation
Signal Meaning
8 > 21 and expanding BB Bullish trend continuation
8 < 21 and expanding BB Bearish continuation

Highlighted compression zone Potential pre-breakout setup
Price closing above 8/21 Confirmation to enter
