You might ask, "How is this different from Bollinger Bands?"
While Bollinger Bands measure standard deviation (volatility), they are reactive and often "walk" up and down with the price. The FMCBV is often calculated using specific Fixed Modes that make it more sensitive to market noise specifically, rather than just raw volatility.
Where Bollinger Bands might still show a slight curve during a chop, the FMCBV will visually flatten, creating a clearer distinction between a "slow trend" and "no trend."
