Nanophase Technologies Corp 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)

NANX Signals & Forecast
Mostly positive signals in the chart today. The Nanophase Technologies Corp 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 $1.30 and $0.90. A breakdown below any of these levels will issue sell signals. A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Monday, March 11, 2024, and so far it has risen 204.28%. 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). Nanophase Technologies Corp 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.

Support, Risk & Stop-loss for Nanophase Technologies Corp stock
Nanophase Technologies Corp finds support from accumulated volume at $1.37 and this level may hold a buying opportunity as an upwards reaction can be expected when the support is being tested.
This stock may move very much during the day (volatility) and with a very large prediction interval from the Bollinger Band this stock is considered to be "very high risk". During the last day, the stock moved $0.0176 between high and low, or 1.26%. For the last week, the stock has had daily average volatility of 16.05%.
The Nanophase Technologies Corp stock is extremely overbought on RSI14 (83). Normally this may pose a good selling opportunity but since the stock has broken the trend up, the chance for a major correction due to high RSI is very small as the stock will find support at the trend broken.
Our recommended stop-loss: $1.35 (-3.34%) (This stock has very high daily movements and this gives very high risk. The RSI14 is 83 and this increases the risk substantially. There is a buy signal from a pivot bottom found 37 days ago.)

If Nanophase Technologies Corp takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 16.38% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.
With no resistance above and support from accumulated volume @ $1.37, some $0.0300 (2.14%) from the current price of $1.40, our system finds the risk reward attractive.
