Precision Trading with Bollinger Bands: Identifying Breakouts & Reversals

Webinar Recorded on Mar 26, 2025  | 1 hour Download Slides (PDF)

Webinar Description

Bollinger Bands are a powerful tool for measuring price volatility and identifying high-probability trading setups. Developed by John Bollinger, this study plots two standard deviation bands around a moving average, contracting during low volatility and expanding when price action accelerates. Traders commonly use Bollinger Bands to spot overbought and oversold conditions, but they are equally effective in detecting breakouts, volatility shifts, and divergences between price and momentum studies. This webinar will explore using Bollinger Bands to confirm trend continuation patterns, filter out false signals, and anticipate market turning points.

Join John Rowland, Barchart's Senior Market Strategist, as he breaks down the math behind Bollinger Bands and demonstrates their application in breakout and mean reversion strategies. Learn how to incorporate daily and intraday Bollinger Band signals, apply momentum-based entry techniques, and implement risk management rules. Don’t miss this opportunity to enhance your technical analysis skills!

In this webinar, you will learn about:

  • Standard Deviations and Price Confidence
  • Overbought and Oversold Trading Techniques
  • Setting entries and exits by blending daily and intraday Bollinger Band signals
