Application cases

Bollinger bands

The idea of Bollinger bands is to combine a trend indicator, a volatility indicator and an oscillator. The bands indicate on the chart the direction and range of price fluctuations, taking into account the trend and volatility characteristic of the current market phase. Graphically, the indicator represents three lines: a simple moving average in the middle, characterizing the main direction of movement, and two lines, limiting the price chart from both sides, representing the positive and negative standard deviation from the average line and characterizing the volatility of the traded asset.

Basically, the indicator is used to determine the degree of volatility. When the bands expand, volatility increases, while when they contract, on the contrary, it falls.

It is believed that quotes should walk inside the range between the upper and lower Bollinger bands, only rarely leaving it. The middle line sets the direction, also, everything revolves around it and periodically returns to it. The upper and lower lines are a kind of price movement channel.
