Bollinger Bands:

1. It seems that the default series OUT_HIGH should be renamed OUT_LOW as it provides values for lower boundary (the same for OUT_LOW, change the name to OUT_HIGH)

2. The resulting default graph OUT_G that appears at the end of analysis would become more meaningful if you add the series for the underlying price, instead of calculated moving average.
