These both seem quite similar to me, however, from what I can see, the price never breaks outside of DC supp/res, but it often does w BBs. Is there more info to be gathered from BBs? other than price breaking BBs supp/res, the 2 price channels seem very closely related. also, I am using a trending strategy, so what is the best oscillator to use for these price envelopes to better predict a trend in price action? RSI? Price oscillator?...etc??

I am interested in learning how Bollinger Bands are used in trading. What is the purpose of this tool? Is anyone trading effectively using Bollinger Bands? Thank you

Type: Indicator Name: BWI BB Band Width Indicator: created by John Bollinger, of the Bollinger band and Bollinger Capital Management fame, as presented by John Forman in the Nov.1994 issue of "Technical Analysis of Stocks and Commodities". Idea: BWI is a measure of a tradeable's ability/tendency to trend. It is faster than an ADX, in that it will move earlier and reset itself earlier too. When the BWI is low, the volatility is low. ie. there isn't any trend. When it has a positive slope, there is a trend. I have added the following enhancements: 1. up/down colors for easy directional identification 2. option to use Exponential Average BWI_a.txt
