THE BOLLINGER BANDS Posted By : naman singh
2008-05-28 21:34:00 Contracting bands warn that the market is about to trend: the bands first converge into a narrow neck, followed by a sharp price movement. The first breakout is often a false move, preceding a strong trend in the opposite direction. Bollinger Bands are designed to capture the majority of price movement. When prices move beyond the upper or lower band, they are considered high (overbought) or low (oversold) on a relative basis. Setting financial goals helps direct financial planning. Examples of financial goals are: "To retire at age 50 with a personal net worth of $800,000 American," or "To buy a house in 3 years paying a monthly mortgage servicing cost that is no more than 25% of my gross income". It is not uncommon to have several goals, some short term, and some long term. Read more about finance.

Solving the Bollinger Band Mystery: An indicator that packs a punch…
2008-02-07 17:57:00 Among the many technical trading tools available today, one that you should be familiar with is known as the Bollinger Band. To the untrained eye they appear to be nothing short of two lines that simply hug the price of a stock. Boys are these investors dead wrong… Although these general observations are true, there are a few rules of thumb that you need to be aware of when using this powerful indicator: · Bollinger Bands help define periods of contraction (bands come closer together) and expansion (bands split apart) · Equities do not like to trade outside the bands · A stock will often bounce back and forth between the bands, offering many profitable trading setups In looking at the Consumer Discretionary Select Spider Fund (XLY:AMEX), you can see how each of the points mentioned above are reflected in the chart below.

Bollinger’s Free Speech Double Talk
2007-09-26 16:54:00 Columbia University president Lee Bollinger exercised his free speech rights by giving guest lecturer Mahmoud Ahmadinejad a good tongue lashing. It is doubtful his words swayed the Iranian despot – “OK, OK, the Holocaust happened, and I will dismantle my nuclear program just as soon as I get back home!” - but with his tough talk “Bollinger had clawed his way back to semi-respectability in polite society by insulting his guest - not the usual practice in polite society, but consider the depth of the hole Bollinger had dug for himself by insisting on being a good academic liberal,” as Dallas Morning News columnist Bill Murchison put it. If all speech on college campuses was equally tolerated – Ahmadinejad had been invited to speak, and people heard him out instead of shouting him down – The Stiletto’s first instinct is to agree with New Yorker Pearl Atkins, 74, who lost relatives in the Holocaust: “Let him speak - let him open his mouth. This is America; people get t...
Pat Buchanan "Bollinger Made a Fool of Himself" with Iranian Presdient Ahma
2007-09-26 07:45:00 Patrick Buchanan, analyst for MSNBC says, that President of Columbia University made a "FOOL" of himself. Buchanan has been very outspoken, on the subject of Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. He has suggested that the President of Iran should have been allowed to visit the site of 9/11. When the Iranian leader wanted to place a wreath at the ground zero location. His request to visit the site was denied and the President of Iran, was banned. Then we got the Columbia issue, where Buchanan, who is a Columbia Alum, made it clear he agreed that the President of Iran should be allowed to speak. Now after the even, many people are talking about the issue and Buchanan is giving Ahmadinejad a lot of credit. Patrick Buchanan made it clear that Ahmadinejad did not deny the Holocaust,but suggested it was a problem that occurred in Europe. The Palestinians have been suffering for 60 years because of the Holocaust. Over all a very interesting news day.It will be interesting to see how the net...

Columbia University Bollinger plays “Hardball” with President of Iran A
2007-09-26 07:27:00 High security was the standard at Columbia University, as 750 students and faculty members listened. The guest of “honor” was the President of Iran, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. Lee C. Bollinger University President introduces the president and asks questions. This is one of many events, about Iran to come in the future, we are told. “We do not honor the dishonorable. I respect your opinion”, says Bollinger.We do it for ourselves. Not for Ahmadinejad. It is not his right, but ours to listen and question. We must be free, Bollinger went to explain to, “Confront the Mind of Evil.” Bollinger did not hold back! He called for the release of a Columbia Alum, he questioned civil rights abuses in Iran. We “protest” our own government on their abuses and should not be shy or hesitant to question others. I found Bollinger's statements to be quit good. Although it did seem somewhat rough to be so confrontational. I guess I should have expected it. I wonder if ...

Mr. Bollinger, mind your manners
2007-09-25 21:14:00 By now, we've all heard the best sound bites from Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's speech at Columbia University yesterday. In his abstract world, there are no homosexuals in Iran and Iranian women are the most free women in the world. Ahmadinejad also hinted that 9/11 might have been an inside job. I've heard the conspiracy theories on 9/11 before, and while I don't necessarily buy into them, I certainly don't put anything past the Bush administration and its capacity for deceit, lies and manipulation. Remember, the president did utilize the 9/11 tragedy as a launching pad for his crusade in Iraq, and I won't get into it about Dick Cheney. The main point is, President Bush and his cronies have already proven themselves to be pretty unscrupulous. But back to Ahmadinejad, he was invited by Columbia University to speak, in an attempt to foster dialogue, I suppose. No matter how off-base we as Americans consider Ahmadinejad's politics to be, I think we should not ever cl...

As Donald Trump told CNN’s Wolf Blitzer later in the day, Ahmadinejad will most likely “dislike us a helluva lot more” after this visit. And who could blame Ahmadinejad? What was purported to be an educational discourse at one of the nation’s best Ivy League universities began with the strangest greetings we’ve ever seen for a foreign dignitary. In an astonishing “yee-haw! ride ’em cowboy!” ambush introduction for Ahmadinejad, Bollinger went on at great length, excoriating his guest at every turn. It was quite clear that reason had flown out the window long before the Iranian President arrived. Bollinger said he ...

Ridiculous is the guy that speaks in this video and dangerous are the supporters of the massacres of the US all these years. Iran is not "clean" but US is far more dangerous for the world than them. Why a flawed nation (as Iran is) cannot have a nuclear program (or even atomic bombs) while a more flawed and dangerous for the global peace US can have whatever they want?

Here, he looks at a holdings in the media, global telecom and material sectors. "The ISE Sentiment Index was 84, a bullish reading, but the ten-day average is a still neutral 143. Looking ahead, all eyes will be on the credit news. We are convinced that as eyes turn back to stocks and the economy a rally will materialize.""The most interesting aspect of this correction is that value was sold off harder than growth. Indeed growth is now in a clear up trend for stocks of all sizes. This confirms the rotation we saw towards growth before the correction. We would be quite surprised in growth if it does not maintain leadership now. "The sector picture is a bit muddled, but Telecom, Technology, Health and Industry are at the head of the pack. For now, our plan is to watch the recovery rally and take decisions based on the nature and charact...
Bollinger Bands for Technical Analysis
2007-07-16 09:37:00 Bollinger bands are one of the most widely used technical analysis tools by all types of traders trading stock, bonds, forex currencies etc. It was developed by John Bollinger. Bollinger bands consist of three bands. One middle band showing the simple/exponential moving average and two standard deviation bands plotted above and below the simple moving average band.The volatility in the price of the financial instrument can be easily noticed by the widening of the bands ?

Moving Average and Bollinger Bands
2007-05-09 01:10:00 Moving Average: Moving averages are one of the most popular and easy to use tools available to the technical analyst. Moving average Forex indicator is the average price for a given time interval in relation to other prices during the similar time periods. For instance the closing prices over a 5-day period would have a moving average of the total of the five closing prices divided by five. The two most popular types of moving averages are the Simple Moving Average (SMA) and the Exponential Moving Average (EMA). A Simple moving average is calculated by adding the prices over a given number of periods, then dividing the sum by the number of periods. For example, a nine-day simple moving average would add together the closing prices for the last nine days, and then divide that number by nine. An Exponential moving average gives more weight to recent prices, and is calculated by applying a percentage of today's closing price to yesterday's moving average. The longer the peri...

Bollinger Bands Explained
2007-01-04 10:14:00 What are they? Bollinger Bands are a pair of trading bands representing an upper and lower trading range for a particular market price. A market price or currency pair is expected to trade within this upper and lower limit as each band or line represents the predictable range on either side of the moving average. The lines are plotted at standard deviation levels above and below the moving average. This trading band technique was introduced by John Bollinger in the 1980.Why use them? Bollinger Bands can be very useful trading tools, particularly in determining when to enter and exit a market position. For example: entering a market position when the price is midway between the bands with no apparent trend, is not a good idea. Generally when a price touches one band, it switches direction and moves the whole way across to the price level on the opposing band. If a price breaks out of the trading bands, then generally the directional trend prevails and the bands will widen accordingly...
