<strong>Bollinger</strong> <strong>B<strong>and</strong></strong> <strong>as</strong> <strong>support</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>resistance</strong><br />

XPertTrader Library Series<br />

As can be seen in the chart above, the upper b<strong>and</strong> can be used <strong>as</strong> a <strong>resistance</strong> for price movement<br />

<strong>and</strong> the lower b<strong>and</strong> can be used <strong>as</strong> a <strong>support</strong> for price movement. If the price trades near or on the<br />

upper b<strong>and</strong> <strong>and</strong> retraces, we may initiate a short position. This is because the upper b<strong>and</strong> h<strong>as</strong><br />

become a <strong>resistance</strong>. Similarly, if the price trades near or on the lower b<strong>and</strong> <strong>and</strong> rebounds, we may<br />

initiate a long position. This is because the lower b<strong>and</strong> h<strong>as</strong> become a <strong>support</strong>.<br />

Utilising XPertTrader, we can screen for stocks that are trading near the upper b<strong>and</strong> for <strong>resistance</strong> or<br />

near the lower b<strong>and</strong> for <strong>support</strong>.<br />
