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.

Gujarat Narmada Valley Fertilizers & stock downgraded from Buy Candidate to Hold/Accumulate after Tuesday trading session.
(Updated on Apr 30, 2024)

Buy or Hold candidate since Apr 23, 2024 Gain 2.63% PDF

The Gujarat Narmada Valley Fertilizers & stock price fell by -1.25% on the last day (Tuesday, 30th Apr 2024) from ₹721.10 to ₹712.10. During the last trading day the stock fluctuated 2.60% from a day low at ₹709.20 to a day high of ₹727.65. The price has risen in 6 of the last 10 days and is up by 4.13% over the past 2 weeks. Volume has increased on the last day by 38 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, 63 thousand shares were bought and sold for approximately ₹44.76 million.

The stockis at the upper part of a wide and horizontal trend and normally this may pose a good selling opportunity but a break-up through the top trend line at ₹721.20 will give a strong buy signal and a trend shift could be expected. Given the current horizontal trend, you can expect Gujarat Narmada Valley Fertilizers & stock with a 90% probability to be traded between ₹605.19 and ₹726.76 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.
