Profits by these kind of mean reverting systems disappear on few strongly trending days. A filter is needed to keep the system realistic and robust, couple of years of backtesting doesn't cut it. Cheers.

Bollinger Bands are flexible. They expand and contract in line with market volatility. When the market trends strongly, Bollinger Bands move in the direction of the price...up or down. If you are caught on the wrong side, you will be wiped out. BBs must be used in conjunction with other indicators and chart patterns.
