What is Band Bollinger?

Bollinger Bands are a popular technical analysis tool used in trading to measure volatility and identify potential price trends. Invented by John Bollinger in the 1980s, these bands consist of a simple moving average line and two additional lines plotted above and below it, based on the standard deviation of price movements.

How it works?

Identify the current trend: Bollinger Bands can help you determine whether the current price trend is bullish or bearish. If the price is consistently trading above the moving average line, it indicates a bullish trend. Conversely, if the price is consistently trading below the moving average line, it indicates a bearish trend.

Look for price extremes: Bollinger Bands also help identify overbought or oversold conditions. When prices move to the upper band, it suggests that the stock is overbought, while prices moving to the lower band suggest that the stock is oversold.

Confirm with other indicators: Always use other technical indicators, such as the Relative Strength Index (RSI), to confirm overbought or oversold conditions.

Wait for a breakout: After identifying a trend and potential overbought or oversold conditions, wait for the price to break out of the Bollinger Bands. If the price moves above the upper band, it’s a signal to buy. If the price moves below the lower band, it’s a signal to sell.

Manage risk: Always use stop-loss orders to limit losses in case the price moves against you. Also, consider taking profits when the price reaches the opposite band.
