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.

Ollie stock upgraded to Buy Candidate.
(Updated on May 02, 2024)

Buy candidate since May 02, 2024 PDF

The Ollie stock price gained 3.27% on the last trading day (Thursday, 2nd May 2024), rising from $72.26 to $74.62. During the last trading day the stock fluctuated 3.37% from a day low at $72.31 to a day high of $74.75. The price has risen in 6 of the last 10 days and is up by 3.22% over the past 2 weeks. Volume fell on the last day by -143 thousand shares and in total, 707 thousand shares were bought and sold for approximately $52.77 million. You should take into consideration that falling volume on higher prices causes divergence and may be an early warning about possible changes over the next couple of days.

The stock lies in the middle of a wide and falling trend in the short term and further fall within the trend is signaled. Given the current short-term trend, the stock is expected to fall -7.22% during the next 3 months and, with a 90% probability hold a price between $61.57 and $72.27 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.

OLLI Signals & Forecast

Mostly positive signals in the chart today. The Ollie 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 $73.64 and $74.12. A breakdown below any of these levels will issue sell signals. A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Wednesday, April 03, 2024, and so far it has risen 9.01%. 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). Volume fell during the last trading day despite gaining prices. This causes a divergence between volume and price and it may be an early warning. The stock should be watched closely.

Support, Risk & Stop-loss for Ollie stock

Ollie finds support from accumulated volume at $74.23 and this level may hold a buying opportunity as an upwards reaction can be expected when the support is being tested.

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 $2.44 between high and low, or 3.37%. For the last week the stock has had daily average volatility of 3.20%.

Our recommended stop-loss: $70.81 (-5.10%) (This stock has low daily movements and this gives low risk. There is a buy signal from a pivot bottom found 21 days ago.)

Trading Expectations (OLLI) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Friday 3rd

For the upcoming trading day on Friday, 3rd we expect Ollie to open at $73.89, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $72.31 and $76.93, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$2.31 (+/-3.09%) up or down from last closing price. If Ollie takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 6.18% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.

Since the stock is closer to the resistance from accumulated volume at $74.65 (0.04%) than the support at $74.23 (0.52%), 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.
