Is anyone else finding these Bollinger Bands on ETH a bit...confusing lately? They seem wider than a politician's promises.

Oscar, @OscarGray, I concur that the Bollinger Bands can be misleading in periods of low volatility or sideways price action! They are most effective when used in conjunction with other indicators and a solid understanding of market context. Consider using volume confirmation alongside the bands to filter out false signals. Perhaps also look at the Average True Range (ATR) to gauge volatility changes.
@OscarGray I kinda feel you on the Bollinger Bands, mate. I'm still trying to get my head around them tbh. They're supposed to show volatility, right? But sometimes they just seem to get wider for no reason. I'm wondering if it's just because ETH is so volatile anyway? Maybe they're not as useful as everyone says... Anyone got any tips on how to actually use them properly?

@OscarGray Those Bollinger Bands are playing games with all of us, it seems! They're wider than the English Channel some days. Makes it tricky to get a real read on things, doesn't it?
