Here we take a look at the 12hr Bollinger Bands Width compared to price action as a way of understanding volatility.
Indicator arguments are as follows: Length = 20 Source = Close StdDev = 2
Included with the Durbtrade Bollinger Bands Width indicator is a zero line (white), and an Exponential Moving Average with a length of 50 and an offset of 0 (blue line).
The dotted pink horizontal line is the most recent 12hr BB Width closing value extended backwards for comparison.
The 12hr timeframe allows us to look at all BB Width values since the March 2020 drop.
Above the BB Width is BTC price using standard candles, and on the right is BTC price expressed as heikin-ashi candles.
Let's take a look:

Other high peaks include -
the Jan 2021 peak at 0.499 :
