How do you determine the settings for Bollinger Bands is the period the # of days on a daily chart? And is the width the % change in price? In practice how should they be set up.

The Period of a Bollinger Band is the number of bars, so it would be days in a Personal Criteria Formula or on a Daily chart. The width is in tenths of a Standard Deviation. The trainers cannot offer setting, interpretation or investment advice. I will move this topic to Stock and Market Talk where other traders are more likely to see it and comment.
