Bollinger Bands

Volatility expanded sharply after 01:30 ET, with Bollinger Bands widening from a narrow range. Price surged well above the upper band, confirming a breakout. The current position near the upper band with a large band width suggests high conviction in the move, but traders may watch for a pullback toward the mid-band for potential short-term entries.
