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.

A break of a horizontal trend is often followed by a large increase in the volume, and stocks seldom manage to go directly from the bottom of a trend up to the top. Stocks turning up in the middle of a horizontal trend are therefore considered to be potential runners.

BNZL.L Signals & Forecast

A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Thursday, May 23, 2024, and so far it has fallen 0%. Further rise is indicated until a new top pivot has been found. The volume rose on the last day while price remained unchanged. This may be an early warning and 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 Bunzl plc 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 £3,035.71 and £3,046.91. 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).

Trading Expectations (BNZL.L) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Tuesday 28th

For the upcoming trading day on Tuesday, 28th we expect Bunzl plc to open at £3,013.33, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between £2,973.22 and £3,070.78, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-£48.78 (+/-1.61%) up or down from last closing price. If Bunzl plc takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 3.23% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.

Since the stock is closer to the resistance from accumulated volume at £3,038.00 (0.53%) than the support at £3,004.00 (0.60%), our systems don't find the trading risk/reward intra-day attractive and any bets should be held until the stock is closer to the support level.
