AU Optronics Corp. Stock Forecast
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)
Live Samples:
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.

AU Optronics Corp. stock downgraded to Strong Sell Candidate
(Updated on May 07, 2024)
The AU Optronics Corp. stock price fell by -1.26% on the last day (Tuesday, 7th May 2024) from $5.54 to $5.47. During the last trading day the stock fluctuated 1.28% from a day low at $5.47 to a day high of $5.54. The price has been going up and down for this period, and there has been a 9.84% gain for the last 2 weeks. Volume has increased on the last day by 25 thousand shares but on falling prices. This may be an early warning and the risk will be increased slightly over the next couple of days. In total, 46 thousand shares were bought and sold for approximately $254.34 thousand.
The stock lies the upper part of a wide and falling trend in the short term, and this may normally pose a very good selling opportunity for the short-term trader as reaction back towards the lower part of the trend can be expected. A break up at the top trend line at $5.59 will firstly indicate a slower falling rate, but may be the first sign of a trend shift. Given the current short-term trend, the stock is expected to fall -6.56% during the next 3 months and, with a 90% probability hold a price between $4.59 and $5.22 at the end of this 3-month period. Do note, that if the stock price manages to stay at current levels or higher, our prediction target will start to change positively over the next few days as the conditions for the current predictions will be broken.

AUOTY Signals & Forecast
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. The AU Optronics Corp. 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 $5.52 and $5.56. A break-up above any of these levels will issue buy signals. A sell signal was issued from a pivot top point on Friday, May 03, 2024, and so far it has fallen -2.32%. Further fall is indicated until a new bottom pivot has been found. AU Optronics Corp. gained volume on the last day, but on falling prices. In technical terms, this is called divergence and may be an early warning. In some cases, increasing volume on falling prices may be considered positive, but that is mainly in typical "sell-offs".

Trading Expectations (AUOTY) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Wednesday 8th
For the upcoming trading day on Wednesday, 8th we expect AU Optronics Corp. to open at $5.49, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $5.27 and $5.67, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$0.200 (+/-3.66%) up or down from last closing price. If AU Optronics Corp. takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 7.33% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.
Since the stock is closer to the support from accumulated volume at $5.45 (0.37%) than the resistance at $5.58 (2.01%), our systems sees the trading risk/reward intra-day as attractive and believe profit can be made before the stock reaches first resistance..
