Bollinger Bands are a popular technical analysis tool used in forex trading to measure volatility and identify potential price reversal points. They consist of three lines plotted on a price chart: a middle band (typically a simple moving average), an upper band (usually two standard deviations above the middle band), and a lower band (two standard deviations below the middle band).

The width of the Bollinger Bands expands and contracts based on market volatility. When the price approaches the upper band, it indicates potential overbought conditions, suggesting a possible reversal or price correction. Conversely, when the price approaches the lower band, it suggests potential oversold conditions and a possible upward price movement. Traders also look for price breakouts outside the bands as an indication of strong momentum.

Bollinger Bands can be used in conjunction with other technical indicators to confirm trading signals and determine optimal entry and exit points in forex trading.
