Learn How to Trade Stocks, Forex & Commodities Using Candlesticks & Technical Analysis to Become a Professional Trader
Very few traders know that the Bollinger Bands actually consist of three separate indicators within itself:
The Bands
The %B
The Bandwidth
A combination of these indicators (which are cast out of the same cloth), can give some incredible trade setups.
We will discuss this in detail, in this program.
Basically, there are 2 kinds of trades:
Reversals
Continuations
Reversals are risky.
Continuations are less-risky.
We will look at how to handle both types of trades, by combining our deep knowledge of candlesticks with the Bollinger Bands.
This program is a real deep dive into Bollinger Bands, and how they can help us harness the full power of the candlesticks.
