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.

Support, Risk & Stop-loss for Energy Transfer stock

Energy Transfer finds support from accumulated volume at $15.56 and this level may hold a buying opportunity as an upwards reaction can be expected when the support is being tested.

This stock is usually traded at a good volume, and with minor daily changes, the risk is considered to be low. During the last day, the stock moved $0.290 (1.87%) between high and low. For the last week, the stock has had daily average volatility of 1.26%.

The Energy Transfer stock is overbought on RSI14 and lies in the upper part of the trend. Normally this may pose a good selling opportunity for the short-term trader, but some stocks may go long and hard while being overbought. Regardless, the high RSI together with the trend position increases the risk and higher daily movements (volatility) should be expected. A correction down in the nearby future seems very likely and it is of great importance that the stock manages to break the trend before that occurs.

Our recommended stop-loss: $15.19 (-3.44%) (This stock has low daily movements and this gives low risk. The RSI14 is 78 and this increases the risk substantially. There is a buy signal from a pivot bottom found 35 days ago.)

Trading Expectations (ET) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Monday 1st

For the upcoming trading day on Monday, 1st we expect Energy Transfer L.P. to open at $15.69, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $15.52 and $15.94, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$0.211 (+/-1.34%) up or down from last closing price. If Energy Transfer L.P. takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 2.69% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.

With no resistance above and support from accumulated volume @ $15.56, some $0.170 (1.08%) from the current price of $15.73, our system finds the risk reward attractive.
