One can enter the trade when price starts trading out of the band. Mostly this setup rewards the trader nicely as one enter the trade early with small stop loss of one candle/Bar and ride the swing. The stock has given the breakout so one can trade it. Please note that sometimes stock gives a fake breakout just to shake the traders in that case one should reverse the trade and continue with that direction.

Equifax (EFX} DailyIn September this year the credit monitoring company plunged nearly 10% witnessing a collossal 35% drop after it disclosed last Friday a massive data breach, which possibly impacted up to 143 million Americans. The stock's drop has wiped out about $6 billion of its market value in the process. The Equifax breach was not the largest ever, but it was notable for the kind of information that was put at risk.Post that the prices had reached oversold region and then the rebound happened over the past few days have started struggling near the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement of the sharp decline. After rebounding a minimum 1/3 the selling pressure has started emerging and the Bollinger Band has narrowed forming a squeeze leading to a possible decline in the coming days. Hence a short below 107 is a good trade to initiate.Once it emerges updates shall follow.

Learn to Trade -- Bollinger BandsHi, Squeeze and Expansion is one of the famous ways to trade BB. In the following steps I will try to explain how I trade it. # Look for a stock in long term uptrend but currently in correction. The 'Long Term' depends on time horizon of trading. For positional trader it could be daily while for intraday traders it could be hourly. So selection of stock would depend upon the trading style. # Once the stock is found, jump to a lower time frame. This time frame is 4-6 times lower than the longer time frame taken above. 1) Wait for a strong impulse wave, which usually signals the beginning of an uptrend. One may see divergence on any momentum indicator for confirming change in trend. Many traders miss this wave due to many doubts but that's OK. The impulse is the first indication that there will be follow through. # Normally such huge moves are associated with very wide separation in BBs. The upper band is moving Northward while the lower Southward. 2) Finally at the end of impulse the lower BB starts bending Northwards, and correction begins. The extent of correction depends on buyer-seller equilibrium but I am interested in looking for price action below the 20MA BB line. For further confirmation I use 55 EMA, whenever possible, means action near and preferably below this EMA decides the trade. # An A-B-C type correction is preferred. 3) Upto this stage strong squeeze in BB can be observed. 4) Then wait for the price to move back above the MA or/and EMA as shown in this example. Price may take support at MAs, however strong spikes below MAs may be followed by closing candles above MAs which show strength. # These spikes are a great for placing Stop orders. 5) Entry would be triggered as the price progresses beyond the upper BB, preferably also breaking a range or trendline, confirmed by above average volume. # Another important confirmation is BB expansion on this break. 6) Take profit at a previous resistance/swing high or a Fib. level. 7,8) One may find another buying opportunity as the price pulls back, preferably near MAs. # Price action near MAs would be the key for entry, see example. Stop could be placed below swing low. 9) After this late entry, the target would be previous high or one may exit as per any other exit strategy. Although all this looks bookish but it actually happened on this stock and I also published the same idea. After all whatever is written in books is learned from experience. Filtering a stock to apply a strategy is the hardest part but you know, there is no easy money in trading business. So good luck. Trade safe and respect every trading strategy. Hit like if you think this information is useful. Regards Bravetotrade
