I am trying to set up Bollinger Bands in my Price Bars.

John Bollinger recommends a 20 day Moving Average with the outside of the bars being set 2 standard deviations above and below the moving average. How do I accomplish this with TC when it is asking me for a moving average and then the width of the bars? I do not understand what they mean by width.

Please help.

The Width parameter is expressed in tenths, so for 2 standard deviations, set the Width parameter to 20.
