Three Bollinger Bands Trading System

Three Bollinger Bands trading system is a reversal strategy for intraday and swing trading.

When the RSI hits either an overbought or oversold level, this signals to us that we can start looking for a possible reversal. However, rather than just immediately buying in hopes for a trend reversal based solely upon RSI, we add in three models of Bollinger bands ( with differents deviation 1,2,3,) to help us identify the point of exhaustion. The reason why we utilize three sets of Bollinger bands is because it helps us to evaluate the extremity of the move along with the extent of the probable inversion of the trend.
