Spdr Bloomberg Sterling Corporate Bond 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)

Red day on Friday for Spdr Bloomberg Sterling Corporate Bond ETF after losing 0.155%
(Updated on Jun 28, 2024)
The Spdr Bloomberg Sterling Corporate Bond ETF price fell by -0.155% on the last day (Friday, 28th Jun 2024) from £51.66 to £51.58. During the last trading day the ETF fluctuated 0.392% from a day low at £51.43 to a day high of £51.63. The price has risen in 5 of the last 10 days and is up by 0.49% over the past 2 weeks. Volume has increased on the last day by 21 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.

The ETF is moving within a narrow and horizontal trend and further movements within this trend can be expected. Given the current horizontal trend, you can expect Spdr Bloomberg Sterling Corporate Bond ETF with a 90% probability to be traded between £51.64 and £52.76 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.

UKCO.L Signals & Forecast
The Spdr Bloomberg Sterling Corporate Bond ETF 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.

Furthermore, there is a buy signal from the 3 month Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD). Some negative signals were issued as well, and these may have some influence on the near short-term development. A sell signal was issued from a pivot top point on Thursday, June 27, 2024, and so far it has fallen -0.155%. Further fall is indicated until a new bottom pivot has been found. Spdr Bloomberg Sterling Corporate Bond gained volume on the last day, but on falling prices. In technical terms, this is called divergence and may be an early warning.
