Highlands Bankshares, Inc. Stock Forecast
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)

On Monday, Highlands Bankshares, Inc. stock price gained an impressive 10.00%
(Updated on Jun 24, 2024)
The Highlands Bankshares, Inc. stock price gained 10.00% on the last trading day (Monday, 24th Jun 2024), rising from $32.50 to $35.75. During the last trading day the stock fluctuated 0% from a day low at $35.75 to a day high of $35.75. The price has been going up and down for this period, and there has been a -2.69% loss for the last 2 weeks. Volume has increased on the last day along with the price, which is a positive technical sign, and, in total, 100 more shares were traded than the day before. In total, 100 shares were bought and sold for approximately $3.58 thousand.
The stock lies the upper part of a wide and falling 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 $36.55 will firstly indicate a slower falling rate, but may be the first sign of a trend shift. Given the current short-term trend, the stock is expected to fall -2.87% during the next 3 months and, with a 90% probability hold a price between $31.42 and $35.50 at the end of this 3-month period. Do note, that if the stock price manages to stay at current levels or higher, our prediction target will start to change positively over the next few days as the conditions for the current predictions will be broken.

HBSI Signals & Forecast
The Highlands Bankshares, Inc. stock holds buy signals from both short and long-term Moving Averages giving a positive forecast for the stock, but the stock has a general sell signal from the relation between the two signals where the long-term average is above the short-term average. On corrections down, there will be some support from the lines at $34.18 and $35.67. A breakdown below any of these levels will issue sell signals. A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Monday, June 17, 2024, and so far it has risen 10.00%. Further rise is indicated until a new top pivot has been found. Highlands Bankshares, Inc. has increased volume and follows the last lift in the price. This is considered to be a technical positive sign as volume should follow the price-formation. The very low volume increases the risk and reduces the other technical signals issued. Some negative signals were issued as well, and these may have some influence on the near short-term development. Furthermore, there is currently a sell signal from the 3 month Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD).
