Bollinger on Bollinger Bands is Concise, straightforward, and filled with instructive charts and graphs. This remarkable book will be essential reading for all serious traders, regardless of market. Bollinger includes his simple system for implementation, and techniques for combining bands and indicators.
Author’s Introduction:
Bollinger on Bollinger Bands is a must read for all students of the markets. It explains and expounds on an important contribution to technical analysis that John made while we were working together at the Financial News Network. When John first invented Bollinger Bands,I didn’t understand the significance of his work. As I stated, it took me many years to understand fully the subject I was covering,and John’s work,at the time,was as arcane as any I had encountered. (Gladly that is no longer so,lest some of you worry that I am still unfamiliar with technical analysis.)
But like many great discoveries,Bollinger Bands are elegant in their simplicity. They define the parameters that accompany market gyrations. They set the boundaries for expectations,and they allow traders to understand the degree and speed with which markets can move. Bollinger Bands bend,yet they are made to be broken. It is when they are broken that they contain some of the most important information an investor could want. They are mathematical in their construction but,in pictures,they paint a thousand words that are invaluable for investors.
In short,Bollinger Bands are a technical tool which all investors,traders,and money managers should understand and utilize. And they are only one of several contributions to market analysis that their namesake has made and for which he will be remembered well.

There’s no more direct way to learn about Bollinger Bands than to read the book written by the man who invented them. This is a must-read for any technical trader. In my opinion, this and the New Concepts in Technical Trading book by Wilder are the two best books that can be read by anyone looking to swing trade. I’ve tried a lot of different things but %B divergence with A/D% volume confirmation coupled with RSI failure swing and a close beyond the 20-day sma are pretty reliable for identifying tops and bottoms. Waiting patiently for these setups to form is the difficult part but these indicators do not provide continuous guidance, as is stated by Bollinger in this book.

The authors history and explanations!

There is a lot of good info in this book. It takes someone with trading knowledge to put it to work. For instance the normalizing of indicators I am finding to be helpful. But as someone else mentioned it needs updating. But if you read btw the lines you can put a trading plan in place. For instance he talks about different indicators from different categories so as to not overlap, but he never really shows how to combine them. That’s left up to you. But investing or really trading is more of an art than anything else, and this book gives you ideas on how to implement it.

At first I thought there was no point in buying the book because there’s so much information on Bollinger Bands out there. But you get advanced information in the book, and it’s very well organized as well. Buy it and read it if you can.

Worth the read.

This book is great but a little bit of technical. You can create a system throughout this book but not for beginners. Great work by the way

Very Detailed
Ophelia Newton (verified owner) –
Too little detailed explanations and examples. Too much assumption that the Reader already has background and understanding of what is being discussed.
