The tick chart on the right showed volatility, but the 3 minute chart on the left suggests a contraction of the Bollinger Bands and poor volatility. When the Bollinger Bands are so contracted and tight on the 3 minute chart, trading activity on the tick chart tends to become erratic and difficult to trade. With corn and soybeans limit up, I am using the time today to read trading books. My favorite is Phantom's Gift. It always charges my trading batteries.Tuesday, March 25, 2008
