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.

(Updated on May 20, 2024)

Buy candidate since May 16, 2024 Gain 0.39% PDF

The Everest Group, Ltd. stock price fell by -0.794% on the last day (Monday, 20th May 2024) from $392.92 to $389.80. During the last trading day the stock fluctuated 1.27% from a day low at $389.10 to a day high of $394.04. The price has fallen in 6 of the last 10 days but is still up by 2.85% over the past 2 weeks. Volume has increased on the last day by 39 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, 222 thousand shares were bought and sold for approximately $86.51 million.

The stock is moving within a wide and horizontal trend and further movements within this trend can be expected. Given the current horizontal trend, you can expect Everest Group, Ltd. stock with a 90% probability to be traded between $359.80 and $401.32 at the end of this 3-month period. 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.

EG Signals & Forecast

The Everest Group, Ltd. 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 $384.14 and $374.03. 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 Friday, May 17, 2024, and so far it has fallen -0.794%. Further fall is indicated until a new bottom pivot has been found. Volume rose on falling prices yesterday. This may be an early warning and the stock should be followed more closely.

On the downside, the stock finds support just below today's level from accumulated volume at $369.90 and $367.50.

Our recommended stop-loss: $379.71 (-2.59%) (This stock has low daily movements and this gives low risk. There is a sell signal from a pivot top found 23 days ago.)

Trading Expectations (EG) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Tuesday 21st

For the upcoming trading day on Tuesday, 21st we expect Everest Group, Ltd. to open at $390.98, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $382.77 and $396.83, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$7.03 (+/-1.80%) up or down from last closing price. If Everest Group, Ltd. takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 3.61% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.

Since the stock is closer to the resistance from accumulated volume at $391.87 (0.53%) than the support at $369.90 (5.11%), 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.
