Bollinger Band is one if the most useful indicators if used properly. TrendGuard used the parameters based on Bollinger to create a tool that can help traders enter trades at most optimal level.
The indicator is useful to all traders since it checks for retracements and changing trend direction. With this indicator, you get the opportunity to open trades early and also lock your profits based on the dotted trend lines that form after a certain level of Bollinger band.
