Today's video offers a comparison between the Keltner Channel and the Bollinger Bands. By watching it, you'll learn:

- What the Keltner Channel is and how to calculate it

- What the graphic differences are between the Keltner Channel and the Bollinger Bands (although they are very similar, there are cases when their behavior differs significantly)

- How the performance of a simple trading system based on the cross between price and channel changes depending on whether you use the Keltner Channel or the Bollinger Bands.

Enjoy! 😎

Andrea Unger here and I help retail traders to improve their trading, scientifically. I went from being a cog in the machine in a multinational company to the only 4-Time World Trading Champion in a little more than 10 years.

I've been a professional trader since 2001 and in 2008 I became World Champion using just 4 automated trading systems. 

In 2015 I founded Unger Academy, where I teach my method of developing effecting trading strategies: a scientific, replicable and universal method, based on numbers and statistics, not hunches, which led me and my students to become Champions again and again.

Now I'm here to help you learn how to develop your own strategies, autonomously. This channel will help you improve your trading, know the markets better, and apply the scientific method to financial markets.

Becoming a trader is harder than you think, but if you have passion, will, and sufficient capital, you'll learn how to code and develop effective strategies, manage risk, and diversify a portfolio of trading systems to greatly improve your chances of becoming successful.
