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.

GRAPHITE.NS Signals & Forecast

A sell signal was issued from a pivot top point on Thursday, April 25, 2024, and so far it has fallen -4.68%. Further fall is indicated until a new bottom pivot has been found. Furthermore, there is currently a sell signal from the 3 month Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD). Volume rose on falling prices yesterday. This may be an early warning and the stock should be followed more closely. Some positive signals were issued as well, and these may have some influence on the near short-term development. The Graphite India Limited stock holds a sell signal from the short-term Moving Average; at the same time, however, there is a buy signal from the long-term average. Since the short-term average is above the long-term average there is a general buy signal in the stock giving a positive forecast for the stock. On further gains, the stock will meet resistance from the short-term Moving Average at approximately ₹675.45. On a fall, the stock will find some support from the long-term average at approximately ₹647.16. A break-up through the short-term average will send a buy signal, whereas a breakdown through the long-term average will send a sell signal.

Support, Risk & Stop-loss for Graphite India Limited stock

On the downside, the stock finds support just below today's level from accumulated volume at ₹607.85 and ₹602.65. There is a natural risk involved when a stock is testing a support level, since if this is broken, the stock then may fall to the next support level. In this case, Graphite India Limited finds support just below today's level at ₹607.85. If this is broken, then the next support from accumulated volume will be at ₹602.65 and ₹586.20.

In general the stock tends to have very controlled movements and with good liquidity the risk is considered very low in this stock. During the last day, the stock moved ₹17.10 between high and low, or 2.61%. For the last week the stock has had daily average volatility of 2.34%.

Our recommended stop-loss: ₹628.34 (-4.29%) (This stock has low daily movements and this gives low risk. There is a sell signal from a pivot top found 6 days ago.)

Trading Expectations (GRAPHITE.NS) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Monday 6th

For the upcoming trading day on Monday, 6th we expect Graphite India Limited to open at ₹660.57, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between ₹632.81 and ₹680.19, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-₹23.69 (+/-3.61%) up or down from last closing price. If Graphite India Limited takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 7.22% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.

Since the stock is closer to the resistance from accumulated volume at ₹670.35 (2.11%) than the support at ₹607.85 (7.41%), 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.
