Constructing Weekly Bollinger Bands When Weekly Data Is Unavailable
Summary
The document answers how to obtain upper and lower Bollinger Band values on weekly bars in BigQuant. It says the platform does not currently provide weekly data directly, so users must construct weekly data first and then calculate the bands from it.
The answer points readers to an example strategy for the construction process, but does not reproduce its steps or explain how to aggregate daily bars, handle partial weeks, or set Bollinger parameters. It provides no performance evidence or validation. The practical takeaway is limited: weekly Bollinger values depend on building weekly bars from available data, and the linked example is needed for implementation details.
Key ideas
- BigQuant does not directly provide weekly bars in the described context.
- Users need to construct weekly data before calculating weekly Bollinger Band limits.
- The answer points to an example strategy but gives no construction details or validation.
