Bollinger Bands Creator Spots Bitcoin Primed for Explosive Breakout—Here’s Why

Bitcoin's price action just got a vote of confidence from an unlikely source—the man who invented the trading tool everyone’s obsessing over.

John Bollinger—yes, the Bollinger of 'Bands' fame—just flagged BTC’s tightening volatility as a classic setup for a major move. And given the crypto market’s habit of overshooting every prediction (except the bearish ones, naturally), traders are already salivating.

The Squeeze Before the Storm

Bollinger Bands measure price volatility by plotting standard deviations around a moving average. When the bands tighten like they’re wearing crypto winter’s skinny jeans, it typically precedes a violent breakout. Bitcoin’s current compression? Historically bullish.

Ironically, the same tool used by hedge funds to ‘de-risk’ is now flashing green for the ultimate ‘risk-on’ asset. Maybe they’ll finally buy the dip after retail pumps it 200% first.

One thing’s certain: if this plays out like past cycles, the only thing tighter than those Bollinger Bands will be the FOMO.
