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.

Superior Plus Corp stock upgraded to Buy Candidate.
(Updated on May 01, 2024)

Buy or Hold candidate since Apr 29, 2024 Gain 0.53% PDF

The Superior Plus Corp stock price gained 1.50% on the last trading day (Wednesday, 1st May 2024), rising from $9.33 to $9.47. During the last trading day the stock fluctuated 1.82% from a day low at $9.32 to a day high of $9.49. The price has risen in 6 of the last 10 days and is up by 1.28% over the past 2 weeks. Volume has increased on the last day along with the price, which is a positive technical sign, and, in total, 137 thousand more shares were traded than the day before. In total, 584 thousand shares were bought and sold for approximately $5.53 million.

The stock is at the lower part of a wide and horizontal trend in the short term, and normally this may pose a good buying opportunity, though a breakdown through the bottom trend line at $9.28 will give a strong sell signal and a trend shift may be expected. Given the current horizontal trend, you can expect Superior Plus Corp stock with a 90% probability to be traded between $9.44 and $10.51 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 stocks seldom manage to go directly from the bottom of a trend up to the top. Stocks turning up in the middle of a horizontal trend are therefore considered to be potential runners.

SPB.TO Signals & Forecast

A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Monday, April 15, 2024, and so far it has risen 2.38%. 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 is rising along with the price. This is considered to be a good technical signal. Some negative signals were issued as well, and these may have some influence on the near short-term development. The Superior Plus Corp stock holds a buy signal from the short-term Moving Average; at the same time, however, the long-term average holds a general sell signal. Since the longterm average is above the short-term average there is a general sell signal in the stock giving a more negative forecast for the stock. On further gains, the stock will meet resistance from the long-term Moving Average at $9.69. On a fall, the stock will find some support from the short-term average at $9.38. A break-up through the long-term average will give another buy signal, while a fall below the short-term average will add another sell signal and strengthen the general signal.
