Ron,
I don't use Bollinger bands in any of my trading systems. I just
mentioned Bollinger's bandwidth as an possible approach to detect
low volitility in an equity as a prelude to a breakout.
The only channels I use are those that might be created by trending
stocks. I then play the retracements to the lower channel line for
a swing trade( visa-versa for downtrending stocks).
