Bollinger Band Width
What Is Bollinger Band Width?
The width of Bollinger Bands (distance between upper and lower bands) as a percentage of the middle band. Measures the degree of price volatility compression or expansion.
How to Interpret
Narrow Bollinger Band Width (tight squeeze) often precedes explosive moves. Historically, the tighter the squeeze, the more violent the resulting expansion.
