ABOUT US / THE FRAMEWORK & THE ANALYST
Four dimensions. One market context.
Bouhmidi Bands bring implied volatility into Salah-Eddine Bouhmidi’s price, time and volume approach to day trading. The aim is a fuller understanding of the session.
Give the move its context.
A price move tells only part of the story. Its timing, the activity behind it and its size relative to implied expectations help explain what makes the move unusual. Bouhmidi Bands make that fourth dimension visible through an expected range, defined before the session and fixed throughout it.
Built through experience. Read as a whole.
Through his trading experience, Salah-Eddine extended his price, time and volume framework with implied volatility. The cockpit analogy expresses that approach: every instrument contributes, and understanding how they relate to the current situation is what gives a trader context. That combined reading is where he looks for an intraday edge.
THE RESEARCH BACKBONE
The research behind the range.
This site brings together the indicator, original DAX and S&P 500 studies, and concise observations about market behaviour. The research asks what happened around the bands, how timing changed the picture, and what followed a breach or return.
