Bollinger Band Squeeze Breakout Strategy:
Bollinger Band Reversal Trading Strategy: In this strategy, you look for overbought or oversold conditions. When the price reaches the upper band, it's considered overbought, while when it reaches the lower band, it's considered oversold. Wait for a candlestick to close below the upper band in an overbought condition or above the lower band in an oversold condition, indicating a potential reversal. Enter a short trade if the price is overbought and a long trade if the price is oversold. Use a stop-loss order above the breakout candlestick and a take-profit order at the middle band.
