"In financial trading I can use volatility and other historical price movements to my advantage. As an example, low volatility means expect high volatility and with high volatility expect low volatility. One way of doing this is to use Bollinger bands which are constructed using 2 x the Standard Deviation of an n day moving average of a closing price. By tracking the width of the bands over a period of time you can see periods of low and high volatility. This method not only helps with the timing but also exposes optimism and pessimism from the public."
just a curious question : are you sell side (market maker) or buy side (customer/hedge fund/institution)?
