Product name: Bollinger Band System for MetaStock
Initial Price: $299
Brief product description: 

John Bollinger worked for months with the makers of MetaStock to create a new mechanical trading system using the time-tested and proven technology of Bollinger Bands...a system that's simple, yet robust enough to be reliable across all types of stocks, in all types of market environments. A system that provides a high probability of reliable performance for the future... not just the past. The Bollinger Band System (BBS) is unique. It has the ability to adapt to each security's recent activity. Unlike other systems that have a fixed set of parameters, BBS is designed to evolve with market conditions, making it more reliable, and more likely to produce profitable results! This adaptability is due, in part to the indicators used to create BBS: the Money Flow Index indicator (MFI), which incorporates volume into its calculations, %b, which compares price action to indicator action, and the Bollinger Volatility Index (BVI), which provides a means of measuring the volatility of a security and comparing it with the volatility of other securities. BBS takes these indicators and adjusts them to your security's most recent activities. Trading bands and indicators by themselves can be effective tools, but when combined as we've done with BBS, the potential for trading success is greatly increased.
