Indicator of Bollinger borders
consists of two lines. They are placed on the equal distance to definite amount of usual discrepancies. While the value of standard deflection depends on the price unsteadiness, the lines automatically control their width. The width increases if the market of forex trading is more volatile and decreases when the market is not so unsteady.
The lines of Bollinger resembles the Envelopes Moving Averages indicator. The basic distinction between these indicators in forex trading is that the borders of envelopes are placed over and under the line of changing average on the certain distance, which is calculated in percents, while the borders of the Bollinger lines are placed on the distances equal to definite number of standard deflections.
Here are the features of Bollinger's lines:
- The fluctuations of the prices in forex trading which begin from one of the line's borders, as a rule, reach the other border. The aforesaid feature can be helpful for forecasting price's orienting points.
- Uncontrolled changing of prices often happens after the line's shortening, which indicates decreasing of unsteadiness.
- If after the rises and falls outside the lines there are rises and falls inside the lines, it's probable that the turn of tendency can occur.
- If the prices go outside the borders, the ongoing tendency is expected to be continued.
