Hochschild Mining plc 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)
Live Samples:
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.

HCHDF Signals & Forecast
Mostly positive signals in the chart today. The Hochschild Mining plc stock holds buy signals from both short and long-term Moving Averages giving a positive forecast for the stock. Also, there is a general buy signal from the relation between the two signals where the short-term average is above the long-term average. On corrections down, there will be some support from the lines at $2.24 and $2.01. A breakdown below any of these levels will issue sell signals. A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Wednesday, May 22, 2024, and so far it has risen 15.22%. Further rise is indicated until a new top pivot has been found. Furthermore, there is a buy signal from the 3 month Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD). Hochschild Mining plc 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. Higher liquidity also reduces the general risk.
Support, Risk & Stop-loss for Hochschild Mining plc stock
On the downside, the stock finds support just below today's level from accumulated volume at $2.25 and $2.18. 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, Hochschild Mining plc finds support just below today's level at $2.25. If this is broken, then the next support from accumulated volume will be at $2.18 and $2.00.
This stock may move much during the day (volatility) and with a large prediction interval from the Bollinger Band this stock is considered to be "high risk". During the last day, the stock moved $0.0900 between high and low, or 3.90%. For the last week, the stock has had daily average volatility of 4.57%.
Since the Hochschild Mining plc has been rising for 6 days in a row, the risk over the next couple of days has increased. We don't expect a major reaction as the stock is in very good shape technically, and therefore hold a positive evaluation despite the very short term risk.
Our recommended stop-loss: $2.32 (-3.50%) (This stock has high daily movements and this gives high risk. There is a buy signal from a pivot bottom found 8 days ago.)
Trading Expectations (HCHDF) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Monday 3rd
For the upcoming trading day on Monday, 3rd we expect Hochschild Mining plc to open at $2.37, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $2.31 and $2.49, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$0.0947 (+/-3.94%) up or down from last closing price. If Hochschild Mining plc takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 7.89% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.
With no resistance above and support from accumulated volume @ $2.25, some $0.147 (6.14%) from the current price of $2.40, our system finds the risk reward attractive.
