Eighty-eighth day · The Bollinger Bands Finally Opened
Waiting for eighty-eight days.
The upper and lower bands of the Bollinger Bands, like two tightly closed lips, are getting narrower and narrower. The candlesticks are squeezed in the middle, gasping for air. The group is quiet, comments decrease, and the number of followers drops a few. Someone asked me: What are you still persisting?
I said: Waiting for it to open.
This morning, I opened the chart. The upper band starts to lift, the lower band begins to dip. That corridor, narrow to the point of being as thin as it can be, finally cracks open. It’s not a sudden surge, but a slow, powerful expansion. Like a seed breaking through the soil, like a butterfly spreading its damp wings.
I know, the market is coming.
Not every narrowing will lead to a breakout. But eighty-eight days of observation tell me: when the Bollinger Bands narrow to the extreme, when trading volume shrinks to the lowest, and everyone is too lazy to watch — that “opening” often marks the start of a new direction.
These eighty-plus days, like the days when the Bollinger Bands are narrowing, are boring, dull, and no one wants to stay. But those who stay, you are the candlesticks in the corridor. You don’t leave because you know — the gap will always open.
Eighty-eighth day, the Bollinger Bands opened. The market is on its way. And you are still here, that’s really good. #WCTC交易王PK
