SCHWAB 1000 INDEX SCHWAB 1000 INDEX ETF 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.

Weaker technical forecast for SCHWAB 1000 INDEX SCHWAB 1000 INDEX as ETF downgraded to Hold/Accumulate.
(Updated on May 01, 2024)
The SCHWAB 1000 INDEX SCHWAB 1000 INDEX ETF price fell by -0.330% on the last day (Wednesday, 1st May 2024) from $48.51 to $48.35. During the last trading day the ETF fluctuated 1.72% from a day low at $48.31 to a day high of $49.14. The price has fallen in 5 of the last 10 days but is still up by 0.06% over the past 2 weeks. Volume has increased on the last day by 77 thousand shares but on falling prices. This may be an early warning and the risk will be increased slightly over the next couple of days. In total, 217 thousand shares were bought and sold for approximately $10.50 million.
The ETF is at the lower part of a horizontal trend in the short term, and normally this may pose a good buying opportunity, though a breakdown through the bottom trend line at $47.95 will give a strong sell signal and a trend shift may be expected. Given the current horizontal trend, you can expect SCHWAB 1000 INDEX SCHWAB 1000 INDEX ETF with a 90% probability to be traded between $48.86 and $51.99 at the end of this 3-month period. A break of a horizontal trend is often followed by a large increase in the volume, and ETFS seldom manage to go directly from the bottom of a trend up to the top. ETFS turning up in the middle of a horizontal trend are therefore considered to be potential runners.

SCHK Signals & Forecast
A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Friday, April 19, 2024, and so far it has risen 1.09%. Further rise is indicated until a new top pivot has been found. Some negative signals were issued as well, and these may have some influence on the near short-term development. The SCHWAB 1000 INDEX SCHWAB 1000 INDEX ETF holds sell signals from both short and long-term Moving Averages giving a more negative forecast for the stock. Also, there is a general sell signal from the relation between the two signals where the long-term average is above the short-term average. On corrections up, there will be some resistance from the lines at $48.81 and $49.55. A break-up above any of these levels will issue buy signals. 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 ETF should be followed more closely.
