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)

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.

NSK Ltd. stock upgraded from Sell Candidate to Hold/Accumulate after Friday trading session.
(Updated on May 17, 2024)

Hold candidate since May 17, 2024 PDF

The NSK Ltd. stock price gained 0.271% on the last trading day (Friday, 17th May 2024), rising from JP¥775.90 to JP¥778.00. During the last trading day the stock fluctuated 1.71% from a day low at JP¥766.10 to a day high of JP¥779.20. The price has fallen in 6 of the last 10 days and is down by -9.65% for this period. Volume fell on the last day by -226 thousand shares and in total, 3 million shares were bought and sold for approximately JP¥2.53 billion. You should take into consideration that falling volume on higher prices causes divergence and may be an early warning about possible changes over the next couple of days.

The stock lies in the lower part of a wide and weak rising trend in the short term, and this may normally pose a very good buying opportunity. If the lower trend floor at JP¥776.49 is broken, it will firstly indicate a slower rate of rising, but may also be an early warning for a trend shift. Given the current short-term trend, the stock is expected to rise 3.99% during the next 3 months and, with a 90% probability hold a price between JP¥807.51 and JP¥946.68 at the end of this 3-month period.

6471.T Signals & Forecast

A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Thursday, May 16, 2024, and so far it has risen 0.271%. Further rise is indicated until a new top pivot has been found. Volume fell during the last trading day despite gaining prices. This causes a divergence between volume and price and it may be an early warning. The stock should be watched closely. Some negative signals were issued as well, and these may have some influence on the near short-term development. The NSK Ltd. stock holds sell signals from both short and long-term Moving Averages giving a more negative forecast for the stock. Also, there is a general sell signal from the relation between the two signals where the long-term average is above the short-term average. On corrections up, there will be some resistance from the lines at JP¥814.51 and JP¥862.43. A break-up above any of these levels will issue buy signals. Furthermore, there is currently a sell signal from the 3 month Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD).

Support, Risk & Stop-loss for NSK Ltd. stock

NSK Ltd. finds support from accumulated volume at JP¥775.90 and this level may hold a buying opportunity as an upwards reaction can be expected when the support is being tested.

This stock has average movements during the day and with good trading volume, the risk is considered to be medium. During the last day, the stock moved JP¥13.10 between high and low, or 1.71%. For the last week, the stock has had daily average volatility of 2.07%.

NSK Ltd. is oversold on RSI14 (23). Some stocks may drop long and hard while being oversold on RSI before turning, which increases the general risk.

Our recommended stop-loss: JP¥731.81 (-5.94%) (This stock has medium daily movements and this gives medium risk. Low RSI14 is 23 which reduces the risk some. There is a buy signal from a pivot bottom found 1 day ago.)

Trading Expectations (6471.T) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Monday 20th

For the upcoming trading day on Monday, 20th we expect NSK Ltd. to open at JP¥774.43, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between JP¥757.91 and JP¥798.09, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-JP¥20.09 (+/-2.58%) up or down from last closing price. If NSK Ltd. takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 5.16% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.

Since the stock is closer to the support from accumulated volume at JP¥775.90 (0.27%) than the resistance at JP¥828.00 (6.43%), our systems sees the trading risk/reward intra-day as attractive and believe profit can be made before the stock reaches first resistance..
