Trading rules by the Squeeze Break Indicator

The basic rules that form the basis of trading by the Squeeze Break:

2. Negative red histogram means that the Bollinger Bands are inside the Keltner Channel and the market more prone to consolidation. The stronger red histogram, the lower the price movement.

    Great indicator especially for closing trades but has one big annoying problem. On the open of a new time frame all objects
    are deleted, trend, vertical, horizontal lines. All of your analysis is deleted. :( Any suggestions on how to fix this?
    Thanks
