Bollinger bands are actually indicators as to the volatility of a particular security. As a result, for trading purposes, one would want to look at the activity of trading within the bands in conjunction with another tool, such as the Relative Strength Indicator, to properly undertake investment decisions.
Historically, when a price movement has been identified originating at one of the Bollinger limits, it will more likely than not continue at least to the opposite limit band.
Bollinger bands are in essence a graphic representation of the volatility that exists in the market for any particular stock. As such, they allow the investor the possibility to identify periods where opportunities for the undertaking of successful positions can arise.
When used in conjunction with other indicators, the knowledge and use of Bollinger bands can greatly improve any individuals trading performance.

The reaction of an upper or lower band to approaching price provides the active trader with a tale tale sign of what will likely take place over the next few bars or more.
This reaction provides valuable insight into whether or not this will be just a few bars or quite a few bars.
Likewise the upper bands "personality" during this time is also very telling.
