Explanation to Bollinger's Bands

Bollinger Bands was created by John Bollinger in the early 1980s, its purpose is to define price action relative to the assets highs and lows. This technical indicator is used to identify buy and sell signals and has proven very well in doing so.

Bollinger Bands consist of a set of three curves drawn in relation to securities prices. The middle band is a measure of the intermediate-term trend, usually a simple moving average, that serves as the base for the upper and lower bands. The interval between the upper and lower bands and the middle band is determined by volatility, typically the standard deviation of the same data that were used for the average. StockInvest.us uses Bollingers suggested 20 day average.

Middle Bollinger Band = 20-period simple moving average
Upper Bollinger Band = Middle Bollinger Band + 2 * 20-period standard deviation
Lower Bollinger Band = Middle Bollinger Band - 2 * 20-period standard deviation

BandWidth defines the current width of the band.
%b defines the current position within the band.

BandWidth = (Upper Bollinger Band - Lower Bollinger Band) / Middle Bollinger Band
%b = (Last - Lower Bollinger Band) / (Upper Bollinger Band - Lower Bollinger Band)

Bollinger Bottleneck Buy Pattern 2

Bottlenecks in bandwidth indicate an upcoming change. Break up through the moving average line or continuous movements above the moving average line indicate a break up, and vice versa.

0IPT.L Signals & Forecast

The Akastor ASA stock holds buy signals from both short and long-term Moving Averages giving a positive forecast for the stock. Also, there is a general buy signal from the relation between the two signals where the short-term average is above the long-term average. On corrections down, there will be some support from the lines at kr15.61 and kr13.00. A breakdown below any of these levels will issue sell signals. Furthermore, there is a buy signal from the 3 month Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD). Some negative signals were issued as well, and these may have some influence on the near short-term development. A sell signal was issued from a pivot top point on Monday, June 17, 2024, and so far it has fallen 0%. Further fall is indicated until a new bottom pivot has been found. Volume fell on the last day without any changes to the price. This does not cause any direct divergence but may be an early warning and a possible "turning point". The very low volume increases the risk and reduces the other technical signals issued.

Support, Risk & Stop-loss for Akastor ASA stock

On the downside, the stock finds support just below today's level from accumulated volume at kr14.56 and kr14.48. There is a natural risk involved when a stock is testing a support level, since if this is broken, the stock then may fall to the next support level. In this case, Akastor ASA finds support just below today's level at kr14.56. If this is broken, then the next support from accumulated volume will be at kr14.48 and kr13.54.

In general the stock tends to have very controlled movements and therefore the general risk is considered very low. However, be aware of low or falling volume and make sure to keep an eye on the stock During the last day, the stock moved kr0 between high and low, or 0%. For the last week the stock has had daily average volatility of 0%

The Akastor ASA stock is extremely overbought on RSI14 (93). This increases the short-term risk substantially.

Our recommended stop-loss: kr16.18 (-3.14%) (This stock has low daily movements and this gives low risk. The RSI14 is 93 and this increases the risk substantially. There is a sell signal from a pivot top found 2 days ago.)

Trading Expectations (0IPT.L) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Thursday 20th

For the upcoming trading day on Thursday, 20th we expect Akastor ASA to open at kr16.70, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between kr16.38 and kr17.02, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-kr0.323 (+/-1.93%) up or down from last closing price. If Akastor ASA takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 3.86% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.

With no resistance above and support from accumulated volume @ kr14.56, some kr2.14 (12.81%) from the current price of kr16.70, our system finds the risk reward attractive.

Is Akastor ASA stock A Buy?

Akastor ASA holds several positive signals, but we still don't find these to be enough for a buy candidate. At the current level, it should be considered as a hold candidate (hold or accumulate) in this position whilst awaiting further development. Due to some small weaknesses in the technical picture we have downgraded our analysis conclusion for this stock since the last evaluation from a Buy to a Hold/Accumulate candidate.

Current score: 0.000 Hold/Accumulate Downgraded
