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.

First Interstate BancSystem stock price down 0.89% on Wednesday
(Updated on Jul 03, 2024)

Buy or Hold candidate since Jun 20, 2024 Gain 6.74% PDF

The First Interstate BancSystem stock price fell by -0.89% on the last day (Wednesday, 3rd Jul 2024) from $27.96 to $27.71. During the last trading day the stock fluctuated 1.52% from a day low at $27.63 to a day high of $28.05. The price has risen in 7 of the last 10 days and is up by 6.86% over the past 2 weeks. Volume has increased on the last day by 140 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, 581 thousand shares were bought and sold for approximately $16.09 million.

The stock lies in the upper part of a wide and weak rising 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 $28.23 will firstly indicate a stronger rate of rising. Given the current short-term trend, the stock is expected to rise 2.64% during the next 3 months and, with a 90% probability hold a price between $26.04 and $28.97 at the end of this 3-month period.
