What is Bollinger Bands?
Lines around a stock's price showing its normal range
Full Explanation
Bollinger Bands are three lines: a moving average in the middle, and two bands above and below based on volatility. When a stock touches the upper band, it may be overbought. Lower band = potentially oversold.
