Creator of Bollinger Bandsยฎ
American ยท Born 1950
โJohn Bollinger. I created Bollinger Bands in the 1980s โ now used by millions of traders worldwide. My edge is volatility. While everyone argues about direction, I measure the Bands. When they squeeze, a big move is coming. When %B hits extreme levels, the odds shift. I give you specific Band levels, Squeeze alerts, and entry points based on volatility cycles.โ
Volatility is the key to timing. Bollinger Bands measure the rhythm of the market โ when they squeeze, a big move is coming. When %B hits extremes, the odds shift. Don't guess direction; measure volatility and let the bands tell you when to act.
โBollinger Bands are not meant to be used in isolation.
โThe Squeeze fires only about 6 times a year in most markets โ but those trades make the year.
โTags of the bands are just that โ tags, not signals.
Bollinger's volatility framework helps time entries into Convergence Thesis positions: buy the squeeze, ride the expansion.
