Reading the signals

Bollinger bands speak a simple language: when bands squeeze, expect a big move. If prices cling to the upper band, the market's bullish; if they're near the lower band, it's bearish.

Trade execution

Bullish Signal: Press “Buy” when the price touches or breaks below the lower Bollinger Band, indicating a potential reversal to the upside.

Bearish Signal: Press “Sell” when the price touches or breaks above the upper Bollinger Band, indicating a possible reversal to the downside.

 

Bollinger bands provide clear cues for your trading decisions.
