THE BOLLINGER BAND SWING SETUP — EXPLAINED LIKE A PRO

No hype. No fluff.

Just a clean, reliable method that works — when used with discipline.

Let’s break it down:

Step 1: Avoid Choppy, Sideways Markets

Don’t waste time in noise.

If price is meandering between the bands with no direction, sit out.

Wait for a clear breakout and directional momentum.

Step 2: Entry Trigger — Price Crosses Above the Middle Band (20 EMA)

This is your momentum shift signal.

If price breaks above the middle line with volume confirmation in a trending market — that’s your cue.

Enter long.

Step 3: Stop Loss — Below the Lower Bollinger Band

Protect your trade, but give it room.

Avoid tight stops that get wicked out.

Set your SL just under the lower band — smart risk management, without strangling the trade.

Step 4: Exit — When Price Breaks Below the Middle Band Again

This is the key to riding trends.

As long as price holds above the middle band, stay in.

Once it closes below it — exit. Take your profits.

BONUS PRO TIPS:

• Best on 1H or 4H charts — smooth, reliable swings

• Combine with volume surges or RSI divergence for added confirmation

• Never enter when price is floating in the middle of the bands — wait for clear direction
